| Dining |
Spoodles
With 250 seats including outside dining on the "boards." With a distinct Mediterranean flavor and the warm colors 'del sol,' Spoodles brings new culinary vision to the concept of tapas, the Spanish custom of sharing several menu items.
Fresh herbs and spices with distinct flavors are the cornerstone of Spoodles' dinner menu, with a sampling of tapas that might include: grilled asparagus with Pecorino Romano cheese and olive vinaigrette; Moroccan spiced tuna with shaved fennel, lemon and spiced olive oil; and an oak-baked pizza with roasted garlic, wild mushrooms, basil and goat cheese.
Entrees include whole roasted yellowtail snapper with tomato-caper-olive sauce and roasted potatoes; balsamic mustard glazed Atlantic salmon with braised lentils, frisee and pancetta-rock crab vinaigrette; grilled lamb loin with a Tuscan bean-vegetable ragout and spicy tomato jam; and spinach fettucine with wild mushrooms and basil pesto.

for an a la carte breakfast or lunch, or even order hot, hot, hot pizza by the slice from the takeout window on the boardwalk.

Flying Fish Cafe
Brilliant neon stretching above the front door is a grand introduction to the Flying Fish Cafe at Disney's BoardWalk.
The sign's brilliant blue hues carry right inside the front door, where the decor conjures up thoughts of the deep sea. Giant, shimmering fish scales hug the walls. Delicate lights dangle from oversized fish hooks. Sleek, golden
fish arc overhead.
This stylized interior by noted designer Marty Dorf sets the stage for the cuisine of Chef Robert Curry, who calls
his cuisine "New American - redefined." Curry brings his talents to Walt Disney World Resort from the renowned Domaine Chandon restaurant in Napa Valley, where he won accolades for his farm-fresh creations. And his quest for indigenous products continues with a menu that changes with the seasons. "I respect the purity and essence of the ingredients," said Curry, "and strive to enhance their outstanding flavors."
Flying Fish favorites like the potato-wrapped red snapper remain on the new chef's menu, but Curry adds his
own signature dishes like house-smoked salmon tartare with cucumber salad, parsley aioli and croutons. Or a salad with oven-roasted beets, goat cheese, walnuts, and an orange vinaigrette. A new favorite
is chardonnay steamed mussels with parsley-pastis sauce and grilled sourdough.
A team of busy chefs turns out nightly specials like oak-grilled wahoo with shiitake-spring garlic risotto, truffle
nage and crispy leeks, and yellowfin tuna, scented with coriander, served with a summer roll and Thai-basil vinaigrette. The menu changes frequently, with major changes each season, featuring "whatever is freshest,
at the pinnacle of flavor" said Curry.
Though fish dominates the menu, the char-crusted New York strip steak with Yukon gold potatoes is a favorite, said Curry. That and the banana Napoleon with crispy phyllo dough, to top off the evening.
The Flying Fish Cafe is named for a Coney Island roller coaster, called "The Flying Turns," with cars emblazoned with "Flying Fish." Lighted parachutes suspended from the restaurant's ceiling pay homage to the Coney Island parachute jump, an unforgettable challenge for young daredevils. A floor-to-ceiling Ferris wheel is the most
literal reminder of carefree summer days.
The cafe's stage kitchen is a high-energy dinner show for guests, with a handsome gold-tiled countertop for
casual dining right in front of the oak-fired grill.
"Guests want to be in touch with the chefs and the food," said Curry. "Here they can see the chefs, see the quality.'"
The restaurant has an extensive wine list with more than 50 selections by the glass and suggested food
and wine pairings.
Curry began his training at Ma Cuisine, Wolfgang Puck's cooking school in Los Angeles, and graduated with
honors from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, N.Y. Michel Richard and Chef Alain Giraud recruited
Curry for Citrus Restaurant in Los Angeles, then in 1994 he moved to Domaine Chandon.
Typical menu items - Oysters, lobster, clams, caesar salad, crab cakes, tuna, red snapper, salmon, strip steak, pork chop, sorbets, crepes.
Hours - The restaurant is open 5:30-10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and 5:30-10:30 p.m. Fridays and
Saturday
Prices - $21-$75
Priority seating suggested. Call 407) WDW-DINE (939-3463)

arcade of interactive sporting games and a full-service restaurant --

broadcast entertainment.
ESPN Club is a highlight of Disney's BoardWalk, a hotel and entertainment complex that recalls the grand resorts of the Mid-Atlantic shore in the early 1900s.
Dick Glover, ESPN senior vice president, said: "The club provides a compelling array of sports experiences, all under one roof. You can watch a variety of games, watch or participate in programs originating from the studios, meet athletes, access the latest information via ESPN.com and play games. Clearly, the best in sports programming and information has joined forces with the best in entertainment to create an original sports entertainment experience."

at the sports desk or in the radio booth. In addition to live programming, special demonstrations are staged within the club

a full-service bar.

all ages with an arcade full of interactive sporting games. A merchandise area offering authentic ESPN Club
