Cafe Promenade, specialty restaurants, Park Cafe, etc.

Of course it will always be a matter or taste and opinion  -  but I drink Starbucks a lot, it's right next to my building at work. I'm drinking it as I type. I only go to Cafe Promenade - I was happy every time. I don't remember the brand they used.

There are a lot of choices besides sushi. They have ramen bowls, hot rocks where you grill your own beef, chicken, seafood, or vegetables, among a variety of other offerings. The Mochi ice cream is also a nice treat for dessert.
The menus at the specialty restaurants do not change, but there is an alternate menu for lunch and I have seen a "special" offered in Giovani's occasionally.

Yup 2 weeks ago I was sitting at a picnic table in Maine waiting for the lobster I picked out right out of the trap to be steamed.  Doesn’t get better or fresher than that!!!

When oh when are they going to get rid of the formal nights?????????? I can't possibly use another formal portrait: my children have started using them for dart boards. My formal outfits all consist of some combination of black pants, tops, shoes and fake jewels since I won't take the good stuff through TSA or wear in a foreign port. My husband decries the suit and tie routine since retirement. Can't someone just say, "Dress up but be comfortable and be reasonable considering baggage fees for lugging extra clothes. Absolutely no shorts or jeans will be allowed in the dining room on formal night but Country Club casual is acceptable."?
