Date & Time visited: Monday, December 29, 2009, 8:25 PM
Guests: Jennifer and me

What we had: French onion soup (Jen), pommes frite (me), Monte Cristo (Jen), ratatouille (me).

I couldn't try either of Jen's dishes (French onion soup has beef stock, the Monte Cristo has ham) but she assured me they were good, especially the soup on a rather chilly night. The pommes frites are essentially garlic fries, but they're well-executed. I'd never tried ratatouille but was feeling adventurous. What do you know--ratatouille is essentially just "chunky tomato sauce". It would go very well on a bowl of spaghetti. I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Service: Not great but not too bad. Bussers gave us more attention than the server did.

Would we go back: Yes, and next time remember to show my AP for a discount, which I completely forgot this time.

What we had: Creole Eggs Benedict (Jennifer), Cafe Scramble (me)

Creole Eggs Benedict means standard Eggs Benedict only with Andouille sausage instead of Canadian bacon, and a spicier sauce. Jennifer enjoyed the dish. A Cafe Scramble is eggs, potatoes, onions and peppers scrambled together with spices and seasonings. Nothing too unusual, but well-executed and a generous portion.

Service: Pretty good. Our assigned server was on a break when we were seated, so another Cast Member took over for him, but then he came back except he was only there about half the time. The other people working the area covered for him, though, so overall we didn't feel neglected.

Would we go back: Yes. This was the first time we'd tried the new breakfast offering at Cafe Orleans, and we'll probably try it again.
