HV Nationals - Black Tap

In Downtown Disney there is a restaurant, Black Tap, that serves huge (expensive) burgers and beer.  But what they are famous for are their over-the-top milkshakes with full slices of cake and other ridiculousness on top.  They definitely look like something created just for an Instagram post, but we decided we needed to try for ourselves.  

On Sunday, Serafina had a full schedule of dance classes, but still had energy to head over to Downtown Disney to try out the famous "Crazyshakes".  We weren't interested in trying to eat a full meal there and then ordering a giant milkshake.  We timed it for in-between lunch and dinner.  I opted for the fried pickles instead of a milkshake, and I don't regret that decision at all.  They were delicious.

Here are some happy kids with their crazy milkshakes.

Leo ordered the Brooklyn Blackout shake that came with two full brownies on top.

Serafina got the Cakeshake with a full slice of funfetti cake on top.

After plenty of photos, they disassembled their shakes enough to actually consume them.  Serafina's cake slice was pretty cold so she saved it to eat after dinner when it was room temperature and a much better texture.

Leo took off his brownies before drinking the shake, but managed to eat/drink almost all of it.

Both kids let me share a bit of the shakes and toppings.  I was skeptical and assumed it was going to be a gimmick, but they were actually delicious.  The shakes were perfect consistency and flavor.  Leo's brownies were top notch.  I was super impressed and wouldn't hesitate recommending the place if someone has a hankering for a very Instagrammable treat. 

Of course, we couldn't have a trip to Downtown Disney without some shopping.  Leo didn't buy these even though he looked adorable.
