Seriously, Andrea and I LOVEEEE this place. This place is amazing. I love the Chicken Schawarma (sp?) platter and it comes with hummus, bread and tubbuelah..or whatever..I never eat it. And it is SO good. The chicken is great and it covered in this sauce stuff kind and red onions.

Re: What is your favorite counter?

We love the Backlot place in HS, they have the best pastries for dessert!

At Animal Kingdom, we Love Tusker House, if they served me at a table, I would consider it a great TS meal - Huge portions of great food.

We have not found counter service to love in MK or Epcot, but now I have some great ideas of where to try....yeah!

Re: What is your favorite counter?

Earl of Sandwich is at the top of my list as well. I do like Cosmic Rays, used to love Flame tree until our last visit.

Oh and the Sunshine place in the land at Epcot.
At the risk of sounding very ignorant, where is Pecos Bills located again? All I remember is that it is seasonal. Is that right?

Re: What is your favorite counter?

I was going to answer NONE, I don't like counter service. But then I saw Bella's answer and I must agree. The Tangerine is absolutely wonderful.
And...the Yak and Yeti is great too, at least it was when it opened last November.

Hey, this is great! It's gotten to the point where I don't even have to post!

Seriously... we only differ in that I like the Chicken and Lamb Schwarma platter.

Because Tangierine Cafe is really THAT GOOD.

Oh, and I'll add that the red onions are marinated in something and they're just tasty and not sharp or overpowering. The hummus has a flavor like nothing you get at the grocery store, and I love the couscous. (Not so much the tabbouleh has I am NOT a parsley kind of girl... I guess no place is perfect!... but my dislike is for tabbouleh in general and not specifically against theirs.)

As for other things... I love Earl of Sandwich. Because I love sandwiches. And I think the original is just a superior example of sandwich!
