Check this out! It's part of my lunch at one of the places inside Dollywood! I had their Salad Bar which also included a Mac & Cheese Bar. I asked them if I could do it with no meat or dairy and the wonderful lady who was doing the custom mac n cheese orders went back to the kitchen and found the olive oil and did mine vegan style! I thanked her multiple times for the special treatment! This is what we came up with! Macaroni in Olive Oil with tomatoes, green onions, read peppers, onions, mushrooms and it turned out yummy! A special shout out and THANK YOU to Dollywood!
One of the many things I enjoyed about Dollywood was the friendly ducks throughout the park just waiting to greet passerby's. Everyone who worked at Dollywood treated them like guests of the park...they were completely free to come and go as they please. There were many natural places for them to frequent including ponds and streams.
Another neat part of Dollywood was the artisans and their demonstrations. This guy was one of the blown glass guys. Everything they make during the day goes into the last part of the process to cool over night and then it's available for sale the next day in the gift shop next to the demo area. I posted a bunch of photos of me over at the Travel Blog if you want to check it out and I will have a lot more from Dollywood in the very near future.

Isn't is always so nice to be accommodated! :-)
ReplyDeleteIndeed! And I try and always make a big deal of those who go the extra mile when they do :) I'm very grateful for those who help me out while I'm trying to enjoy a meal at an establishment :)
DeleteLovely bowl of pasta there. Dollywood sounds like Bollywood, the Indian version of Hollywood.
ReplyDeleteSorta-Kinda! It's a theme park that Dolly Parton created/opened. I think they are celebrating 30 years or so. I will have many more posts from Dollywood in the coming weeks here and on my Travel Blog, too!
