Beaches & Cream Soda Shop

About 4 years ago I was stuck in a rut. I was unhappily married (at far to young an age), floundering in college, feeling trapped in a small town, and unsure of what I wanted to do next. My life was changed when I saw a campus flyer advertising the Disney College Program. Within a few months I was all packed and headed for Orlando Florida, where I would live in a compound full of college kids and work at Beaches and Cream, a teeny tiny soda shop located at Disney’s Yacht and Beach Resort. When my program ended I stayed on full time, and I slaved away thanklessly at that god forsaken restaurant for nearly 3 years. Now I’ve escaped and have been deprogrammed, and the one thing that I can say for sure about my life is that I NEVER EVER want to work a menial job in the food service industry ever again! But still, I had a lot of good times working at Beaches and met a lot of awesome people. I would do it all over again in a heart beat. And the food, while probably being the most unhealthy stuff a person can eat, is awesome. If you go, try the Kitchen Sink! It’s 8 scoops of ice cream, every topping in the house, and a whole can of whipped cream (a whole can???) that’s right a whole can!
