So i'm going back to WDW next year in December for the Christmas Party, and I am doing the same character dining as this year except for I will be doing Chef Mickey's only for breakfast, because I wanted to add another character dine. I can't decide between the Cinderella dinner at 1900 Park Fare or Minnie's Holiday Dine.
 
I have not been to either but overwhelmingly I've heard a poor response about Minnie's Holiday Dine. Conversely, I've heard great things about 1900 Park Fare.
 
1900 PF. We haven't been to dinner there but the breakfast food was excellent. We did Minnie's holiday dine in 2015 and do not need to repeat- the food was mediocre at best and there are much better place on property to eat. You're getting many of the same characters with Chef Mickey's. Unless you have a need to see their holiday costumes, skip Minnie's dine.
 
I'd say depends on characters you are wanting to meet. We had 1900 Park Fare dinner two weeks ago. The buffet was delicious with a large variety of food. The characters all came by our table including Cinderella. We would go again and I definitely recommend. Also the grand floridian at that time of year is beautiful!
 

The only reason I was thinking of Minnie's Seasonal Dine was because u can't normally meet Daisy at Chef Mickey's except on RARE occasions when Goofy happens to be absent

If Daisy in her holiday outfit is important to you, go to Minnie's Holiday dine. I'd do 1900 PF and meet Daisy separately at a normal meet and greet rather than having 4 out of 5 characters overlapping at two of my meals.
 
Just an FYI that you can meet Daisy at Tusker House brft in AK, which we love, with them in Safari gear. 1900 is a fun dinner, the stepsisters are hilarious! Strawberry soup is delicious, and you can check out the giant gingerbread house in GF lobby while there. Minnie's Holiday Dine food was just ok, but Christmas costumes are beautiful, and you get a pic w/Santa Goofy, but if you are going to the party this may not be as impt.
 
1900 Park Fare would be my recommendation. Our experience at Hollywood and Vine was pretty terrible.
 
My family and I had dinner at 1900 last week. The food was good and the wicked stepmother was a hoot! She was trying to convince my 4 yr old great niece that she needed to do all of her chores without question.
 
We have been to both this year. The characters at both are great, but it really just depends on who you prefer to meet. Food is better at 1900, but we do enjoy the food at H&V too. They have a decent fish/seafood selection at H&V, and my 4yo loves it. For a park choice it's great, but if you don't care about being in the park than 1900 would be my preference.
 
I'd keep both of these and skip Chef Mickey's. The food is better at 1900 Park Fare than at H&V, but characters are good at both.
 
I second skipping Chef Mickey's and doing both 1900 Park Fare and H&V. I think the food at H&V is a step above Chef Mickey's, and you get all the Mickey characters dressed up in Christmas attire! If two dinners don't work in your schedule, you could do H&V for lunch the day you would have done Chef Mickey's for breakfast.
 
Here is my character meal plan:

Day 1- Trattoria al Forno for breakfast, Garden Grill for dinner
Day 2- Cape May for breakfast, Akershus for dinner
Day 3- Tusker House for breakfast, H&V for dinner
Day 4- 'Ohana for breakfast, Crystal Palace for lunch, Be Our Guest for dinner
Day 5- Chef Mickey's for breakfast, Cinderella's Royal Table for dinner

Should I change Chef Mickey's to dinner and move CRT to breakfast or should i do Chef Mickey's for breakfast AND dinner and do CRT for lunch?
