Adults eating off of kid's menu

[Princess 'n LA]

First let me state, I am not on DDP. Adult counter service meals are just too much food. Is it ok for me to order occasionally from the kid's menu (counter service)?

yep, I have done this many many times at cs locations

DH and I split many meals also just ordered an extra yogurt or something for me. It was great and saved on the budget too!

My DS and his wife were just asking me about that yesterday since they have both had gastric bypass and do not eat much, they quite frequently share meals if they go out , I wonder if TS also allow ordering off Childrens menu or shareing of meals, we are not doing DDP either

I remember this discussion a while ago. I believe you can order but the charge is for an adult meal. You might be better served at a TS restaurant if one of you orders an appetizer to share and the other order a meal to share. Often I'll order soup and saad for my meal.

I am not sure if they would allow it or not, but I would not recommend ordering from the child's menu at TS restaurants. Most all of the restaurants offer the same limited menu of pasta, chicken, pizza, etc...

I am sure sharing an adult meal would not be a problem and the better choice if you are looking to have any kind of variety in your food.

They should have card from their dr. I have a card from the manufacturer of my lap band that shares a little info abou the surgery and shares how my stomach won't hold a normal adult portion and suggesting that I be allowed to eat from the children's menu. Most TS have one unique item to that restaurant. I am not sure what I am going to do, but I will be asking if there is a child's meal that I would eat...like at Cali grill. Right now I can only fit 1/2 to 3/4 cup of food in for any meal with no drinking while eating allowed.

On the DDP my son has asked for a childs meal though an adult, they prepare it in a double portion and charge an adult price.

OP, ordering a child's meal form a CS will not be an issue. THey don't care who eats it once it has been purchased. But your choices will be limited at many. SOme mroe interesting ones would be Sunshine Seasons by Soarin, I love the grilled cheese pretzel (though it now has too much bread for me to comfotably consume without sliming and PBing) in the sand bucket at the water park, yak n yeti, Flame Tree BBQ, some of the hotel food courts are better choices.

There is no restaurant on Disney property that will NOT allow you to eat a kids meal.

The only exception to this is buffets where there is an adult and childrens price. If you want to go somewhere and order a kids meal, its not an issue anywhere.

I order breakfast CS meals as kids meals for myself (ok, I LOVE the Mickey Waffles too) because I am not a huge breakfast eater. We have two kids so I order three and take them back to the Resort room to eat

Awhile back, someone posted that Disney splits TS meals before they bring the meals to the table. They said it was fantastic to not have to cut meat at the table and put on another plate.

I will have to ask DS and Ddil if they have such a card from there Dr, if they do they never mentioned it but then they had their surgury in 2004 so maybe back then things were different

We will be staying in a 1 Bdrm Villa and while DH and myself plan on eating Breakfast out each day at Boma's ( I love Breakfast and Boma's DS and wife plan on eating in the room but we did want to meet up for some TS lunches and dinners in the parks

I think the kids' menu items are awful. Fortunately, my 7 yr old DD is an adventurous eater and not much into kiddie food, so since the lunch options are always too much for me in the middle of the day, she & I split lunch. When we have used DDP, we just save the extra credit for breakfast at the hotel. This next trip, we won't be on DDP, so we'll just split the adult portion and save the rest for snacks or whatever we want.
