Thanks!
They yelled the same thing out when we were there. We were also seated in the back right hand side. It was nice to see the antics of the room, without getting too caught up in it. More on the way!That tuna sandwich looks great! Can't wait to read more!
Thank you! I got the next day coming up right now...Loving your reviews

Day 4 was our first day at Epcot. Again, we ate in our room before heading out.
Around 12 we headed over to the Land and got fast passes for our 2nd ride on Soarin' and decided to have lunch at Sunshine Seasons. This place is awesome! They have a huge selection, and you can really personalize your meal to be what you want. They even have some meals which I think would make a great dinner such as salmon, chicken, and pork chops.
We both decided on the turkey with muenster cheese on foccacia with chipotle mayo and for dessert, we both had the chocolate peanut butter cake
The sandwich was delicious! It was nice and fresh. The chipotle was nice and subtle. I've had chipotle mayo that was overpowering, and this wasn't. It gave a light sweetness to the sandwich.
The cake was also delicious. It wasn't too peanuty, a nice balance of flavor.
We went back to our room for our afternoon nap, then returned to Epcot around 5 to do some more touring. We had a 5:55 reservation at Le Cellier and we checked in around 5:40
We were seated in about 5 minutes in the New Brunswick section. Our waitress was Kelly, who was very nice and attentive.
I started with the cheddar cheese soup
It was just as amazing as everyone says it is! I loved it!! It was rich and creamy..just yummy!
DH had the steakhouse Caesar Salad
He loved this because of the crispy cheese that it came with. It's definitely a unique way of serving a Caesar Salad.
We also LOVE the pretzel bread! The bread basket came with 3 breads, but the pretzel bread is the one we couldn't stop talking about..and as you can see from this picture, we devoured it before I could take a picture
Next came our entrees... I had the mushroom fillet mignon
It was good. It was a bit overcooked for me, and in hindsight, I probably should have sent it back, but I didn't want to bother since it wasn't inedible in anyway. It was typical fillet mignon in my opinion. The part I liked best was actually the wild mushroom risotto. It was creamy and delicious!
DH got the herb crusted prime rib
As you can see the portion size was huge. This was a very tasty piece of meat and DH loved every bit of it!
For dessert, we both decided on the creme brulee sampler
Althought I enjoyed the creme brulee at Kona, this one blew it out of the water. Not only was it beautful, both varieties were very tasty. The top was still warm from the torched sugar. I liked both kinds, but the maple creme was just a bit more delicious than the vanilla bean.
Overall, great experience. Some people find Le Cellier dark and cramped. We thought it was romantic and charming..a nice escape from the park outside. We'll definitely be going back next time, although I may get something other than the fillet.
Coming up..Day 5, breakfast with Winnie The Pooh (and TIgger too!) at Crystal Palace and Earl of Sandwich

Burberryplaid, I don't think I can make my pics look as good as yours on my trip. I feel as if the food is right in front of me. I haven't been to Le cellier in 4 years. We always want to try something new, but I want to go back this time around. I have such a hard time chosing between what I know and something new. Argh, can you tell I'm comming up on my 180 days for ADRs. LOL.

Your reviews are great!! I LOVE the anchors aweigh tuna sandwhich at Columbia Harbour House, it is sooo delecious!!!!!!We have an ADr at Le Cellier coming up and looking at your pics, I just can't wait to be there myself!!!! Actually I am a little nervous with all the hype I have read about le Cellier that I will be disappointed, but your pics looks o wonderful that I don't think I will be.

Thanks for keeping this thing going..I appreciate all the comments!
Thanks for the compliment on the pictures. I can certainly understand how hard it is to try something new when you are familiar with something else you like. I'm sure we'll find it hard to try new things too.
I definitely recommend Kona. I've heard some mixed reviews about a couple of their dishes, but I feel if you try one of their "signature" meals, you won't be disappointed.
Thanks..your girls are so cute! I love the pic of them by the totem pole!
Thanks...more on the way!
Thanks..I appreciate the feedback!Loving your reviews, and eagerly looking forward to the rest! Great photos, too!
Thanks! I don't think you'll be disappointed at Sunshine Seasons. It was probably our favorite CS spot. We loved the variety!
You got it!Great reviews and pics, keep 'em coming!
Thank you and it's my pleasure!
I don't think you'll be disappointed in Le Cellier. It was really good. I am a creme brulee lover and it was one of the best I've had anywhere.

Friday morning we had an 8:15 AM ADR at Crystal Palace. I was so excited for this as Tigger is my favorite! We woke up about 6:30 and got ready. We caught the boat to the Magic Kingdom, just in time to see the sunrise.
When we got to the Magic Kingdom we were directed to a line for early morning breakfast and tours. We waited about 5 minutes before they let us in.
Once we got the the Crystal Palace, we checked in and they started seating people about 15 minutes later. We were seated 5 minutes after they started the seating process.
Crystal Palace is absolutely beautiful. It's a charming little place tucked in the corner on the way to Frontier Land and Liberty Square. It reminded me of something from the 1800's
We were seated right in the middle of the room at a small table. It was cozy, but nice. There were a few other couples without kids, so we were at total ease.
We got up to the buffet and had a number of choices. They had everything from fresh fruit and cereal to bagels, muffins, eggs, waffles..a great selection!
This was my plate..it had sausage, veggie omelet, breakfast lasagna (sugar rush anyone?) fresh pineapple and strawberry, bacon, and puffed French toast which I stol from the Kid's buffet
All of it was good but OMG was the breakfast lasagna sweet?! It's worth a try though..I always say you have to try everything once.
Here's DH's plate
He had biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, hash, breakfast lasagna, and a chocolate croissant.
We liked everything but the bacon. It wasn't bad but we like it really crispy, and this was soft.
Overall, the food was good..not great...but really not bad. I'd say it was typical breakfast buffet food. We had a better breakfast at WCC. We paid OOP for this because we wanted to save the TS credit for our dinner at Jiko, but it was worth it as we got to meet the characters one on one. They come to each table and they take as many pictures as you want. It was a magical way to way to start the day off..and once you're done eating, you get to be one of the first people in the park!
Once we were finished we toured Magic Kingdom, then went back to our room for a nap. Needless to say, we didn't have lunch this day because breakfast was just so filling. Since we didn't want to use a TS credit, we decided to use our CS credit at Earl Of Sandwich in Downtown Disney. These sandwiches were so delicious! Everything is made to order..nice and fresh.
DH had the special, a BBQ beef sandwich and a chocolate chip cookie
I had the Full Montagu (Roast beef, turkey, cheddar, swiss, romaine lettuce, tomato, and mustard sauce) and a Cupcake "crown" (yellow cake with white frosting)
We loved Earl of Sandwich, and we'll definitely be returning. I wish there was one near us because their sandwiches were delicious!
Up next...Day 6, a return trip to Sunshine Seasons and dinner at the Rose and Crown
