    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!

    I missed a lot of your vlogs this yr. ☹️ I'm so glad the magic Dads are back in my algorithm! I find it incredibly romantical that Steve looks over the lens to conversate with Mike about their shared 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!!!

    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.

    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!

They were still cold upon returning home to California. So nice to have a bite of France to savor for a while after!

    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!!

      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.

      @TheMagicDads  Рік тому +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!
