Mac and cheese pizza?

Boardwalk Pizza & Pasta is a quick-service restaurant in Disney's California Adventure (DCA). I decided to eat here for the first time at the beginning of this month because they were bringing back a Limited Time Magic food offering. Macaroni and Cheese Pizza! I know it sounds a little weird, but I heard good things about it the first time, so I thought I would give it a try. 

When you walk in to Boardwalk Pizza & Pasta, there are 3 sections: pasta, flatbread pizza, and salad. You grab a tray, head to a section, and pick up the food items you want. At the pizza station, this is the flatbread pizza menu that you can always find. They sometimes have a seasonal menu item.

I spotted this sign of the seasonal menu item and picked up the pizza. The mac and cheese pizza was first put on the menu for the Monstrous Summer All-Nighter 24-hour event that was held at the beginning of summer. (That was fun event. There were so many unique experiences for just that one day. And, yes, I was there for 24 hours.) I didn't get this pizza at the event because there was so much going on and so many other special menu items I had to try (for example, Plaza Inn Fried Chicken and Mickey Waffles). So, when they brought it back for the week of National Cheese Pizza day, I made sure to go get it.

The mac and cheese pizza is as delicious as the sign makes it sound. I loved the crispiness of the flatbread, the bacon, and all the cheese. The mac and cheese was a lot like having extra cheese on top of a cheese pizza with bacon. It was great. And to think that I ever doubted it.

I also enjoyed the seating area in front of the restaurant. It's a large area with lots of tables and seats. This picture was just one small part of it. It was very relaxing and peaceful. I liked the lights in the trees and taking in all of the sights and sounds around me. The castmembers were keeping it very clean, as always. As I went to throw out my garbage, one castmemeber took my tray and wished me a goodnight. Great service! Now, I'm just hoping that the macaroni and cheese pizza will make its way back on the menu sometime soon.

Safari Skewer at Bengal Barbecue

Last week, I took a short trip to Disneyland. I needed to get my dose of the magic and, of course, some delicious food. I decided to try some things I had never eaten before. I have been to Disneyland many times, but I can always seem to find something new to see, do, or eat.

First, I went to Bengal Barbecue. I had heard that the bacon wrapped asparagus was really good, so I wanted to taste it for myself. It has bacon, so it has to be good, right? 
The Safari Skewer, as it is called on the menu, is one of a few different skewers served at this stand. I just wanted a snack, so this was the only thing I ordered this time. This skewer costs just $3.89. I also got a free small cup of water (Tip: quick-service restaurants will give you small cups of ice water for free). 
There are a few tables around Bengal Barbecue that were taken, so I headed to Aladdin's Oasis. It is a nice, quiet spot nearby with tables and chairs to sit, eat, and relax. This also happens to be where the Aladdin, Jasmine, and sometimes Genie characters appear for meet and greets. It's a little hidden place away from the hustle and bustle of Adventureland. I highly recommend it on a very busy day.

Once I finally sat down and started eating, I devoured this. The asparagus was cooked, but still crisp. And bacon just makes everything taste better. I loved the smoky, barbecue flavor. I will definitely be getting this one again.

Later that night, I also had a very tasty dinner. Check back for my next post to see where I dined.
