Prior to arriving at Nine Spices Hotpot, the last time I’d eaten a hotpot meal was when I was 8. Once seated at my table, it became apparent hotpot had evolved quite a bit in the last few decades.
Our table featured an induction burner for each seating…and then I noticed the conveyor belt about eye level behind my head with a never-ending parade of food.
Our server was very patient and explained how their hotpot service worked.
On May 15, Morimoto Asia at Disney Springs will launch their Street Food window at the restaurant, offering variations of popular Asian-influenced to-go light bites.
Morimoto tested this concept in January, but they took the time to expand the menu, and are now ready for guests to enjoy this new section of the restaurant.
Menu items are broken down into sections and include the following:
Noodles & Company has many locations around the country, but on March 3, they are opening their first Orlando-area location in Lake Buena Vista, and we went to try it out.
Located in the Crossroads Shopping Plaza, at the intersection of State Rd 535 and Hotel Plaza Blvd, near Downtown Disney, this restaurant offers a variety of noodle and pasta dishes, as well as soups, salads, and sandwiches.
There is a huge menu board on the wall leading from the entrance to the counter, so you have plenty of time to decide what to eat. There are also smaller menus you can carry in line.
One of the best things about Noodle & Company’s menu is that each dish is customizable. You can add meat (pork, steak, grilled chicken or seafood) or have it vegetarian. You can also request things be omitted from the dish, because each one is cooked to order.
