Got the enchiladas at Enrique’s. It’s essentially 3 soft shell corn tortillas with a small portion of chicken wrapped up. Beans on the side with your choice of red or green sauce on top. And then the normal toppings. Wasn’t bad. But it’s really not a “new” entree items and hardly is enchiladas vs just a skimpy raw corn tortilla roll up. Appreciate the attempt to bring a new menu item without a lot of effort. But I’d stick with the bowl or burrito. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Was at CP yesterday. The Turkey is no longer an option. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I swung in today and saw the sign about the enchiladas… but the sign doesn’t indicate that it’s dining plan. Line was too long to wait to ask. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

But is it on the dining plan? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would agree that because KI is near so many residences, a lot of people (myself included) use the dining plan a lot. Kings dominion is like 25 minutes from Richmond… so there’s likely a lot less people who are just swinging by for a meal. That said, Canadas wonderland is SURROUNDED by condos… way more people live close to that park than KI. And their food was even better than KD. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Leonardos (new Italian place) and the burrito bowl place at Carowinds were excellent. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Finally. It wasn’t listed on the entertainment portion of the app, but Saturday night they had live music (2 people) in front of their new restaurant/bar. This would be a great addition to the patio area of Enrique’s. I could see myself going to the park for a burrito bowl and a getting a beer and enjoying some live music in that area.

Fun observations. This platter of basically approvers was an option in dining plan at wonderland Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Other dining notes: Canada wonderland had 4 subway locations. Only 1 was included on Dining plan, and only these options pictured. In this case… I’d say they should get rid of subway… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Canadas wonderland Amazing brisket. Served with chili churri sauce, cornbread muffin, and a side. Super lean (no fat) and so tender. I got this for 4 of my 5 meals there and was not sad. Shown with vegetable medley, which was also great and didn’t taste like it was previously frozen. They also had a Korean BBQ chicken half that was very good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Canadas wonderland was the best food option. Most variety on the plan. And great execution. Here’s the menu at backlot cafe. Pizzas here were made to order and very fresh. Spaghetti and meatballs were generous portion. Taco bowls didn’t look good… but we were pretty far from Mexico Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Dorneys food was meh. Only think I thought this group would appreciate is that subway is still there and you can choose either chips or 2 fresh baked cookies. After heavy eating, it was refreshing to get a few subs instead of other meals. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

2 years ago you could get guacamole and queso on a bowl or burrito for no charge. Last year you could choose one or the other, but not both for no added charge. This year, both are an upcharge and not included. I agree that the meat and pork both lack flavor. And now that guacamole isn’t an option, it’s really bland. For reference. This was the “salad” option at the Carowinds version this week. Not only was the shell great, but the meat had tons of flavor, there was tons of fresh pico de gallo, and guacamole is usually available, although yet were out when I was there.

Inside (left half) of the new coconut cove set up. No changes to the menu… hamburger, hot dog, tenders, pizza.. maybe a salad?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This phantom theater show overstayed its life part way through last year. I really hope it doesn’t get a third year and my entire family was disappointed when we learned it was back this year. If you didn’t grow up on the original ride, it has no nostalgic value. And as a whole it isn’t nearly as entertaining as the last handful of cirque shows (which we used to watch multiple times a year). I’m hopeful that maybe this year the magician will actually do a magic show… or the stunt guy will do some legitimately entertaining stunts… or they can just write out the opera singer… but for my family, the show was a major flop. We had 100 visits last year…. And we saw the show once… and even on the hot days, my family would rather leave than sit in the A/C and watch this show. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My guess is that they are turning it into more like the other la Rosa locations, or fest haus. Where you will enter, grab your own food from a counter, then pay. Which I assume they would do to minimize the staging needed (Vs previously they had industrial people take your order and payment, and others fulfilling orders. Should result in faster food, assuming they have enough check out cashiers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Final California’s Great America food post. Despite many locations closing their subways (including KI). Theirs was open. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
