Background: Family of Five with 3 adults and 7 yo/4 yo; Adults had meals in CRT 3-4 times; 7 yo twice and zero for the 4 yo

I used to like having meals at CRT when it was a la carte dinner. The food was good. The experiences with Prix Fix meal were from blah to blah blah blah. The quality went downhill, the character interactions are much better at Akershus. I used to book around Wishes so we could enjoy the firework inside the castle with the music pike in. Our last visit 3 summers ago, the light was not even dimmed nevertheless the music. It was quite disappointing.

The only reason to do CRT again was for my 4 yo. I was thinking it will be great to have a meal at the castle after Bibbiti Bobbiti Boutique. However, my 4 yo said she doesn't want to do the hair and make up. I'm not sure if I should cancel the ADR now. Maybe I can wait a year or two to do CRT. I don't know. I hate to use 2 dining credits on CRT but it's too much cash for a family of 5. I'm even considering to have my sister taking the girls to CRT while my DH and I take a stroll in MK.

So, there are my options:
1. Do CRT; try out the new menu and check out the new renovation
2. Cancel CRT
3. Divide the party; Pay cash for CRT for 3 and use the credits for Ohana and Rose & Crown

Help for your opinion in advance!
 
I would cancel CRT. We have made reservations for our first trip because it was touted as a wonderful experience. I booked it again for the second trip because I felt pushed to because "it was the thing to do with little girls." I look back and see how silly that was seeing that the first experience didn't wow us that much. It was okay, but nothing outstanding. It certainly wasn't worth the additional dining credit it cost. Without even voicing my opinion, my girls both said they preferred Akershus, where you can see the same princesses but the food there is delicious. We've long since given up going to CRT and love going to Akershus.

I don't think it would be worth it to go to CRT solely for your four year old, especially if you didn't love it that much. It's too expensive to pay that much for a blah meal. I would cancel it and use the two credits elsewhere for the entire family.
 
Cancel. Even though DD at the time was Princess crazy, she did not enjoy the interaction or food. Akershus breakfast was much better overall.
