Chef's is my wife and one daughter's favorite place to eat in Epcot (if not all of WDW), while VN is definitely on my short list. We have only done Chefs for lunch and have never had a bad experience. (Started going when animatronic Remy was making the rounds and ended up loving it with or without him, so we still go back, which I suppose was their original evil plan all along.) I get something different everytime, and daughter always gets the croque monsieur. Wife always gets the beef short ribs and has always declared that it would be her last meal if ever presented with the unfortunate scenario of being offered a "last meal." As unlikely as I thought that possibility might ever be, we ate there a couple of weekends ago for the first time since they replaced the noodles in that dish with polenta...and my wife was fully prepared to murder whoever made that decision...thereby almost making the meal itself the very cause for eventually needing a "last meal." Go figure. On the bright side, I'll probably get to go to VN more often now.
