Disney Reviews: Restaurant Edition #13 - Mama Melrose's Ristorante Italiano

This is the first review for a restaurant in Disney's Hollywood Studios. I chose Mama Melrose's first of all the DHS restaurants because, as far as sit-downs in DHS go, it's my favorite (although not the one we eat at most...that's another review for another day). Let's get started!

Mama Melrose is tucked away in a quiet corner between the Christmas store (not to be confused with the one Downtown) and the exit to Muppet Vision 3D.

Although the seating area is quite small, there are so many things to see that you won't want to sit for long:
2013 (12)-5256
2013 (12)-5258
2013 (12)-5259
2009-0156

including Hidden Mickeys (of course!):
2013 (12)-5255
2013 (12)-5261

And there is an open kitchen:

The seating area is a bit dark, but it fits well with the ambience:
2013 (12)-5262
2013 (12)-5263
2013 (12)-5264

The first time I ate here, I was sick, but I was that way when I walked in the door. Surprisingly enough, the food actually did make me feel better. So let's see the food!

2009:
2009-0165
2009-0162
2009-0163
2009-0167
2009-0168
2009-0170

There were four of us for December 2013, so there's even more food to look at. It was a late choice addition, but I'm glad we did because I had forgotten how good it was! I also almost forgot to take pictures until the middle of the meal, so they are half gone...sorry!
2013 (12)-5265
2013 (12)-5266
2013 (12)-5267
2013 (12)-5268
2013 (12)-5269
2013 (12)-5270

I could have sworn we ate there three times, but I can't find which other year we went. Oh well.

Happy 13th Blogoversary to the worst blogger ever!

Yep, I'm still here. This is the first time I've touched any blog in months. My focus has been in the "me" world. I have a new therapist and it's still early days, but I'm doing much better both mentally and physically. Work always sucks, so that's already a dead horse. And both pups are still hangin in there. My last post was probably the last time I stitched or at least my last Instragram post was. Maleficent still isn't framed, she's still in her ziploc baggie on the kitchen table. Bad me all around. I'm getting worse at this whole social media thing, what little I do. My job is tech burnout, so by the time I get home, the only tech I touch is my TV. The thought of creating a blog post or human communication in any way is just too much. I do have two vacations coming up, so that's exciting, right? I haven't felt like sharing, so very few people around me know about these. The first is a birthday trip to Boulder, j...

A to Z Challenge - B

PART 1 - JANE AUSTEN ALPHABET-COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BRANDON A much better hero than Edward Ferrars in my opinion PART 2 - MY DISNEY COLLECTION-BOOKS Obviously the age limit on books means very little to me: Do magazines count as books? Well, they are on the book row and they are Disney related, so there you go! There are several more shelves of these and they get more movement than anything else because their weight tends to kill bookshelves rather quickly. It helps to shuffle them around upon occasion to give the poor shelves a breather.

A to Z Reflections Post

I'm going to try not to be as wordy as previous years (but no promises). I did two challenges this year, my Jane Austen Alphabet Cross Stitch project, which is now complete: I haven't gotten it framed yet...heck, I still haven't gotten last year's framed either, so there is no telling when it will get done. Thanks to my friend Tiff for her suggestion of the blue fabric over the brown...she made the right choice I think! There is really nothing more to add on my second challenge, My Disney Collection, other than I have realized that my OCD apparently isn't strong enough to focus me in one particular direction. I like to think I have a Duck Room and a Princess/Villains room, but it's more like a Duck/Stitch/Parks room, a Mickey Bathroom, a Disney-themed kitchen, a living room filled with various objects, and a Princess and Villains bedroom. I don't think as a whole, they look so bad, it just looked a bit hoarderish when I divided them up into categori...
