Downtown Disney delight

Last night I took the little guy to Disneyland, I thought that Friday night would be a better option than Saturday, and it definitely was.  We are annual passholders, so dining at Disneyland is hardly ever an option mostly because their food is simply not that good and also because it is way overpriced, which is the case with many theme parks.  I don’t pay much attention to the price as much as I do to the quality, so last night I decided to try the La Brea bakery and restaurant found Downtown Disney, ( you do not have to enter the park for this) for dinner, their bread is definitely good so I hoped for the best.  I opted for the al fresco dining and it turned out pretty pleasant and as far as our food….excellent.  On the menu you can find a variety of different dishes, from salads to seared salmon, hamburgers, sandwiches and the best of all, their grilled panini’s. A panino is basically a grilled sandwich italian style.  I chose a Reuben sandwich which is Pastramy, sour kraut, onions and cheese all layered together for a mouth watering treat, my date went guido on me and selected the Autostrada Panino, which in Italian means freeway ( I am guessing because it’s jam packed with coldcuts just like a freeway).  The Autostrada is put together with Mortadella, Salami, Ham, Provolone cheese and an olive spread and then grilled to perfection in two slices of  sourdough bread……..delizioso.  Honestly if you have extra cash to spear on a boring day, head on over to Downtown Disney, you definitely cannot miss this food.  Simple but good, that is how food should be, the price tag is a little over the ordinary, however, two sandwiches (which include your choice of a garden mixed salad or fries) a kids meal and one fountain drink put us at $39.oo, not bad, and with that a nice al fresco ambiance preferably at twilight, even better.
