At the bottom of the blog it provides info about chefs plate “The Food and Beverage Team here at Kings Island are so excited to present all this wonderful food for you to enjoy beginning this Saturday through Aug. 1. That being said, we will be postponing Chef’s Plate until after Grand Carnivale. Thanks for understanding!” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Check out this new patty melt at the Jukebox. It’s pretty good! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 I ordered that a couple of weeks ago with the caramelized onions and it was really, really good and juicy which is extremely rare for a CF burger. Much better than the hockey puck I attempted to eat at Miami Brewhouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bread was pretty good! Where is this flat bread you speak of? And do they have flat bread pizzas? If so, I might have to try it... -MDMC, one of those "more finicky guests" (I'm a picky eater) mentioned earlier in the thread (re: unique dining offerings) EDIT: Ok, so I just realized from the picture if these are available at Brewhouse. Wonder if they have fflatbread cheese pizzas... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoomPlague Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Decided to get the dining plan yesterday for the first after spending a lifetime trying to be as cheap as possible. It's rather late in the season...so hopefully I'll be going to the park enough to justify it. Ended up getting the smoked ribs from Coney BBQ and the fries. I was very please with both. Now suddenly I want to go to the park as much for food as for rides. In that Grand Carnvale post, it doesn't mention locations or the dining plan. Did anyone get to check it out? Also, is that a handwich I see in the picture? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can buy 9 tastings online for $45 + tax ($50 + tax at the park) if you're a season pass holder and they are good throughout the run of the event. I have 6 more to use tonight when I go and everything I have tried is amazing. As far as locations you can go to the KI website and see which locations have what. The are all branched off of international street. After Carnivale is over we will hopefully have the return of the Chef's Plate with is included on the dining plan "A Plate Like No Other" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably should have checked it out yesterday but was too focused on other things. I do want to check out Chef's plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it is called "Home Base" The only reason it was ever called a plate was because in the early days of the sport a metal plate was used. https://www.theoleballgame.com/why-is-the-home-plate-called-the-home-plate.html So still, not a plate.

chuck norris Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Good news… grand carnival is done this weekend. So next Wednesday the chef’s plate should return.. so only 1 more week of discussing the merits of plates vs trays until we can get back to drilling over excellent meal plan options.

King Ding Dong Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 The park is getting as bad as the big box stores with the early decorations. Maybe this should be moved to the Winterfest 2021 thread? Anyhoo, the RTFS is looking like the perfect place for me to hold court. I shall bring the Valravn Throne I lifted off CP since they abdicated it with Yukon Striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDMC01 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 So, about those lights... did they hang those from Diamondback? I saw that the strand ended at the train station, but I can't see what the upper half of those lights is connected to. Also, I went to Big Bash at least twice when I worked at the park and very much enjoyed it! And @King Ding Dong, that Valravn throne makes me think of this music video (you'll see it mostly at the end): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
