Disney4me Posted August 15 Report Share Posted August 15 When it comes to plant-based eats at Disney World, we’ve come a long way since the days of plain french fries. Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa More and more, we’re seeing interesting and creative vegan dishes pop up here and there, and it’s our job to review them so you know which are worth your precious time — and money! We made our way over to Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa for lunch the other day and tried a plant-based dish we hadn’t had before, but should YOU give it a go? We picked up the Korean BBQ Tofu Bowl from Gasparilla Island Grill recently, so we’re bringing you our full review! This dish is made with Tofu, Korean BBQ Sauce, Lemon-scented Jasmine Rice, and Seasonal Vegetables for $15.79. It kind of sounds similar to our beloved tofu bowls from Satu’li Canteen at Animal Kingdom — but how does it compare?! Korean BBQ Tofu Bowl Unfortunately, it does not come close. The tofu itself was flavorless, and we really had to mix everything together just to bring out some taste. The tofu was lightly fried and pretty plain, but there was a lot of it, and we learned that the old cliché about tofu taking on the flavor of whatever it’s prepared with didn’t hold up here. The whole dish tasted like tofu. Swing and a miss! Thankfully, Gasparilla Island Grill offers packets of lemon juice and hot sauce, so we were able to season the tofu a bit more, which made a huge difference. We DOUSED the tofu In terms of the veggies, the big pieces of vegetables were awesome — we loved the large peas, edamame, and small corn, and appreciate that they went in a healthy direction with this plant-based dish, especially since there’s a more indulgent vegan burger on the menu. Not our favorite. But in this case, it was almost too healthy, to the point where the dish lacked the appropriate seasoning to make it a legitimate offering. With outstanding vegan tofu bowls at Disney World, like at Satu’li Canteen and Backlot Express, we were really looking forward to this, but we think we’ll be sticking with these two spots to get our tofu fix from now on! Plenty of veggies, though! In the meantime, you know we’re always on the hunt for the latest and greatest eats from around Disney World, so make sure you stay tuned to Disney Food Blog for more!
