Fourth of July Weekend

This is way over due, but so worth blogging about. This is what I did for Fourth of July (try not to drool too much).

Disneyland Resort's Cafe Orleans

Appetizer - Pommes Frites (traditional French-fried potatoes tossed with Parmesan cheese, garlic and parsley, served with a Cajun spice remoulade)

Before

After

Main Course - Creole Ratatouille (A N'awlins twist on a French favorite! Savory vegetable ragout, with eggplant, red onion, bell pepper, squash, zucchini, and fresh garlic - seasoned to perfection and served with corn cakes topped with grana padano cheese)
Main Course for sig-o - Mardi Gras Chicken Sandwich (Succulent chicken breast, marinated in olve oil and Cajun spices, then lightly blackened. Nestled on a toasted multi-grain roll with avocado giardinere relish, crisp lettuce and tomatoes. Served with tossed, tender greens)
Dessert - "Mickey"- shaped Beignets (Topped with powdered sugar and served with raspberry coulis and vanilla-bean creme anglaise)
Porto's Bakery in a Burbank, CA (they also have a Glendale location). It's a wonderful Cuban bakery with delicious desserts and tasty sandwiches and smoothies and coffees.
