Ooopsss.... Kimonos!

Here we were, in Orlando. We were excited to be here, we came here two and a half years ago and looked forward to see more of the city and the resort area. The first thing we thought of was to have dinner(!!) at this Japanese restaurant that we all so strongly remembered to be located at one of the Disney hotels. After google-ing the net, the name Kimonos popped up and rang the bell. The restaurant is located in the Swan hotel at Walt Disney World.



To our disbelief, the restaurant was not the one that we ALL imagined to be. We have been to Kimonos before, but it did not match with what we had in our head. We couldn't believe that we could be so wrong and tried so hard to think of where the restaurant that we had in mind is. We were disappointed, especially the kids. DH was strongly convinced that it is in Anaheim, while the rests of us just couldn't be sure. We have traveled all over the place so much that sometimes all memories got so muddled up. I said, I would trace picture folders to find it.



As we were hungry and didn't want to pay $10 for the car park there without eating, we decided to have a light dinner at The Kimonos anyway. Inside, there was a noticeably dramatic collection of ornate kimonos that are suspended along the fringes of the room. We got to sit wherever we wish.



We started off with ordering Spider Rolls, Dancing Eel Roll and Pot Stickers. The service was a bit poor, it seemed that they didn't have enough human resources to deal with a few customers. Nevertheless, the food that came to our table was sooooo... well prepared and tasted good.



Subsequently, we wanted more food and K wanted to have the same rolls plus salmon sashimi. L wanted Udon with vegetable and shrimp Tempura as she found out from the menu that the restaurant offers more than just sushi. DH ordered one cup of green tea, but it never came, but was billed. question





Lastly, this is our limo, parked in front of the hotel!!!! Just kidding..................
