We went on my DD's Make A Wish trip last week, just thought I'd give a quick review on the meals we had.

Magic Kingdom we had breakfast @ the Crystal Palace.
CP was good, not many people there when we got there. The characters were sweet. The kids liked the food. It's a breakfast buffet, so it is what it is, but not bad, tasted like every other breakfast buffet I've been to.

Lunch @ MK we did Cinderella's Royal Table, the food was really good I thought. The princesses were great, but they all came up so quickly I barely ate, LOL! They had lots to say to the kids, my DD will never forget it.

We had the Chef's tasting plate, I forgot to get a photo of it, but it was really yummy, the kids had cheddar cheese & grapes to start with. That was nice.

I had chicken

DH had the 3 times pork I think.

The kids both had chicken tenders.

DD had cupcake & DS had ice cream. I didn't take photos of those, but they had several little cups of toppings to add to their treats.

DH and I both had Chocolate Mousse and it was wonderful.

We had a Pineapple Dole Whip float, it was fantastic before we left for the day.

The next day we went to the Disney Junior Play & Dine character meal @ Hollywood and Vine. Same deal as the Crystal Palace, its a breakfast buffet. But the character interaction was the best! Lots of songs and dancing, the characters came to our table more than once. It was a lot of fun, I'd go again.

Lunch we did a QS meal @ Backlot Express, it wasn't the worst thing I've ever eaten, but it wasn't the best either. But it worked. I had chicken tenders, DH had a burger, the kids shared a hot dog w/ fries.

We ate at DTD that evening @ Raglan Road. I wasn't impressed with my dinner, but I think its just what I ordered and I was hot, a chicken pot pie wasn't be best idea when its 90 out.
The waiter recommend this appetizer, I can't remember the name of it, but DH wanted it, it was good.

And we had the bread pudding for dessert, it was wonderful! But too hot for it really that day.

Our last day @ Disney we had breakfast @ Tusker House, it again was a breakfast buffet, but the had more pastries than anywhere else and they had Krispy Kreme donuts. Yummy! I didn't take a picture because I basically got the same thing I had been getting.

The characters were great here too! You meet Donald outside and he doesn't sign autographs, but then inside you meet Mickey, Daisy & Goofy. After they had finished meeting everyone, Mickey lead a parade around & they handed out music makers to the kids. It was fun, my kids loved dancing around with Mickey.

Lunch we ate at Flame Tree BBQ. It was ok, I had ribs, DH had chicken. Mine was really dry. I think I should have gotten the pork sandwich. However, my onion rings were fantastic. The kids each had a kids meal, and ate every bite. DS had a PB&J and DD had a Hot Dog. It came w/ grapes, chocolate chip cookie & their drink.

And in Epcot we'd planned on eating at La Hacienda, but we decided to skip our reservation. Instead we had a snack in France.

DH had the cheese plate that came with bread & a beer, I had the cake of the day, it was chocolate and pretty good. DD had a strawberry tart & DS had chocolate mousse. IT was all great.

Awww, thank you!

I went to their menu & looked it up.

Smokie City - Creamy smoked haddock & Dubliner cheese dip with potatoes, tomatoes & grilled baguette.

It was good, I mainly just dipped it in the broth, but DH ate the haddock.
 
Thanks for your reviews.

I read about your sweet,brave daughter Keira and I wish you all the best for a bright future.

Both of your children are so precious.
