What is the best character dining experience for an almost 16 month old girl?

I would like to go to one that is a "all you can eat" and prefereably dinner but if the bfast is better let me know.

Thanks!

We were at Disney when our daughter had just turned 2. She is big into Pooh, so we went to the Crystal Palace for breakfast and she absolutely loved it.
We also went to Chef Mickey's for dinner and she also enjoyed that one.
I personally would lean towards the Crystal Palace one, but it does depend on what characters you want her to see.

Shhh....this is awful to admit....but my daughter hasn't really been exposed to Disney characters yet.....I mean she has lots of Pooh things and Disney Princess things....


I think maybe I should try for the "princess" (real face) type of character dining experience....just in case!

Our son wanted no part of the charactures until he was 3 1/2.

Our favorite experience was at the LTT though, because they were so cool about our older son getting to experience them when our youger one wanted no part of them. The manager took him around to meet everyone away from our table. she explained to the charactures that his brother was scared, so the charactures made a big production about tip toeing behind the baby and hiding behind thier hands, which our older son loved!

Our kids got a lot of attention at Chef Mickeys for dinner and at Olivias for breakfast at OKW (Pooh characters). But I don't think Olivias was all you can eat. Chef Mickey's is awesome for the kids, especially if they are also enthralled with the monorail. Liberty Tree Tavern at MK is also supposed to be very good (family style)

Crystal Palace is great for lunch, a nice break from touring, good food, and the Pooh characters are just wonderful with the little ones. My last trip I saw a little girl in a highchair, no older than your DD, grab Tigger's head to pull him down and give him a kiss right on his nose- it was so sweet I started tearing up. Eeyore spent a few minutes playing peek-a-boo with the same little girl.
