To put this in perspective, that "blogger" is none other than Scott Joseph, the recently terminated food critic for the Orlando Sentinel . Thanks for the insight, Zazu; I wasn't aware of Scott Joseph's history. If I'm not mistaken, Dieter came over from Disneyland Paris after designing an...

Dieter Hannig leaves WDW F&B

I was a little shocked to read this this morning, to say the least. A blogger's commentary reads like an obituary, in a way. Hope from great things for both WDW and Dieter in the future. To quote: Dieter Hannig leaving Walt Disney World Co. Dieter Hannig, who is credited with changing the face of re...

Re: Hilton Head Island?

Yes, there is a trolley that drives around the city (Savannah) and makes stops near the historical attractions. My family and I were some of the worst travelers in the world, but we managed to find the trolley and figure out how it worked, so I think you'll find it pretty simple as well. When we wer...
