Anyone eaten at the Royal Table for lunch? Just wondering how the lunch food was. Didn't appear to be a great menu. Any input appreciated!
 
Love it!! It's by far our favorite meal on property.

DH and DS13 get the Major Domo's Favorite Pie, DS9 and I get the pan seared Salmon with Risotto. The appetizer samplings are delish! The dessert is now a cheesecake or a sorbet, both very good.
 
We really enjoyed our lunch there. The Major Domo's pie was very good! I really prefer the lunch menu at CRT to the breakfast.:)
 
We've done both Breakfast and Lunch at CRT, several times, and much prefer the lunch. Of course I just LOVE the Major Domo's pie so that might influence our decision. It's a nice lunch, cute little ceremony, we keep going back so it must be good.
 


I wanted to do lunch here but the only thing even remotely appetizing to me is the major domo's pie, and someone posted the recipe awhile back and it listed mushrooms as an ingrediant :sick: SO now I don't know what to do. I can't just pick them out. There too gross and slimy.
 
I totally forgot I have pictures of our food!!! Yes, yes I'm weird but I'm willing to share if you'd like to see them.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who takes food pictures! DH thinks I am crazy when I pull out the camera and make him let me take a picture before he dives in! :rotfl:
 


DS13 was really impressed with the pics because he said they looked like the cover of a magazine. Let me dig them up and post.

I also wanted to have a meal here but nothing on the menu really seemed like something we would like and I think it was dinner that they has chicken strips for DD and I just had a hard time spending $35 on chicken strips. :eek:
 
here is the recipe. It's shaved beef on top of mashed potatoes, op top of a puffed pastry. The only real down side to this meal is DS13 says it's very rich so you can easily get very full

If you ever wonder what's in a meal at Disney, either for dietary reasons or for foods you don't like check out our recipe catalog. I believe they are all "official" disney recipes, not copies.

Thanks for that link! That is going to come in so handy to me because I am SO SO picky and I need to see if there are going to be-gag-mushrooms in something before I'll try it!
 
Sheesh! There goes my secret. Now everyone will stop wanting to waste their money on a mediocre breakfast to eat great food at lunch with the princesses! The dinner menu, in fact, is even better, but no princesses. My dw is very picky yet loved the pie. I had the salmon, equally good. The domo pie is like a fancy pot roast. Plus, the lunch time is great because you can plow through the park in the morning, have a great meal, then pack out to relax at the resort while everyone else has cs and then drudges around the park all afternoon! Summary-skip the breakfast, get the lunch adr. I would be very surprised if you regret it.

not every meal is on there but close to it.
And I don't think you even notice the mushrooms in the pie, I'll ask DS when he comes home from school.
 
I agree that the lunch food is fabulous. I had the pie last year and it was great!
