    My heart skipped a beat when I recognized the song the harpist was playing when you walked into V&A! It was “Glimpse of Us” by Joji!

    Look at you guys pushing this video out within 24hrs of its grand re-opening. It looked beautiful and all the food and drinks looked delicious. It’s incredible that you got to tour the kitchen, such a unique experience.

    I haven't been back to this restaurant since 2013 - the year we began cruising as opposed to going to WDW. We now go to Remy's and Palo's for our fancy dinner fix! But we always loved V&A when we went to Disney. We used to visit V&A twice a year since the year it was first opened. We've done the chef's table back when Micky & Minnie made a special appearance and posed for a photo with us. We've met Israel Perez, and he always greeted us when we arrived. I'm so glad the restaurant is continuing to do well. Many special memories of it.

    Excellent review! So stoked that you got to see the kitchen!!! But, now, honestly, experience aside, just food...Bull and Bear/ Victoria and Albert's? Then experience included? Bull and Beer seems more fun, but the music this time is making it lighter??? Do a whole live show based on this topic, I'm so there!!!

  • @dulcevaldes7769
    @dulcevaldes7769 Před 2 lety +4

    What a way to start a meal with the glimpse of us. Such a heartfelt song by the harpist. You both look amazing. Victoria and Albert's is on our must-do list.

    I love your videos normally but the fact that you could take us along with the kitchen tour, magnificent! I also appreciate when you tell us that you don’t care for something, like the ham, in this instance. I appreciate your honesty and makes us feel like you are being straightforward with us and not just selling the place you are dining at. Also one last thing, Mike and Steve, I really enjoy the way you describe the food.

    Everything looked so amazing! The French butter with sea salt🥰on my trip to Paris we purchased plastic containers, filled them with sel de mer, tossed in the freezer for a bit prior to departure. They were still cold upon returning home to California. So nice to have a bite of France to savor for a while after!

    What a great video! So many v&a videos people seem afraid to speak above a whisper! Something I learned recently that I can share with you: you actually pronounce the T at the end of turbot (TER buht instead of tur BOH)

    I'm happy to have found other gourmands who love dining at Disney! Thank you for your exceptional and insightful preview review of the reopening of Victoria & Albert including the amazing video in the kitchen. We have dined there six times in the last 25 years and of course the only 5 Diamond award wining restaurant in Florida is always exceptional. Being greeted by Israel is always like coming home. Virtually all other dining experiences will pale by comparison. It is an incredible experience. I'm not personally a fan of the trend to all white so I'm glad to know ahead of our February trip. I'm also not sure how the move to a set menu from allowing for choices in the courses is going to sit with my parents but for me everything looks marvelous. Both of you are a joy to watch savoring the menu and the perfect reviewers. I'll check out your other posts!

    The GF is our home resort and we just got back last week just missing the opening. Thank you for sharing your experience. The harpist introduced very playful scores in the background. I thoroughly enjoyed your descriptions and how playful you two get when there are contradictions. The food and your reactions really highlighted V&A’s quality. Looks absolutely wonderful.

    I do have a question! We are visiting in September and we are booked in as far as I know in the normal dining area, do you know if you have the option to select the gold menu normally In the main dining room? Or was this a one off because it was a preview? 😊 It will be my first ever trip and we're there for 18 days (from the UK), I am so excited!!

    • @stmt1982
      @stmt1982 Před 2 lety +1

      In the past, they offered those enhancements like the Turbot and A-5 in the main dining room. Assuming they haven’t changed that then you should be able to add on those elements of the Gold menu

I love to listen to people talk about food when it's obvious they love to eat, talking about it as an experience and not just dinner. I feel full just watching this! But, I'm still interested to know what those last desserts tasted like, especially the edible wrapped candy. 😁

    I want to try this restraunt, but i feel a bit awkward since every looks to be in their 30s and older I would be 25 when I go on my disneyworld trip. I would like to to do a fine dining experience where it is acquired to dress up. This video is very helpful.

    • @kittymcmeowmeow1
      @kittymcmeowmeow1 Před 2 lety

      I think as long as you're willing to dress up, you'll fit in just fine. I'm 24 and while I haven't been in a restaurant as nice as Victoria and Albert's, I've been in some nice restaurants, and you just have to make sure you fit the dress code.

Mike, I would feel the same way if I would have gotten an invitation to tour the kitchen. Did you get the invitation to the pre grand opening because you have been long time customers?

    • @TheMagicDads
      @TheMagicDads  Před 2 lety +1

      Oh that is WAY too hard to choose. Both have amazing food but the experiences are very different! B&B is definitely a steakhouse, V&A is more epicurean French style of fine dining. Honestly can’t go wrong with either one!
