CRT or 1900?

[Elvis33]

Last time we did CM at Akershus for breakfast. My daughter will be 7 when we go in Dec and at first I thought CRT for dinner, but now I see that there is less character interaction at dinner, only pics, right? We'll be on DDP. She would love the castle , though...maybe I should do a late lunch there? What do you think?

We had lunch there in September and it was very nice. The food was good and the Princesses came around to the tables and we got lots of pictures and video. The castle is beautiful. There is also a 5x7 picture of your child with Cinderella. Our 3 year old granddaughter was picked as princess of the day so it was lots of fun for her Mom and Grandma. She had also done the 1900 Park Fare on a previous trip. It was nice and the food delicious. It was Cinderella, Fairy Godmother and the two mice so all of the Princesses weren't there. There is more food at the 1900 buffet, but the atmosphere of the castle is what makes it extra special.

I think that she will be expecting the the same level on interaction as the last trip, and perhaps the same princesses. I thought Dh and I might enjy the food more at 1900, but guess we will have to sacrifice for DD!

1900 has changed. It's got Cinderella, Prince Charming, and the stepmother and stepsisters. If you want straight princesses, you'd be wise to stick with CRT, but if you want a more humourous experience, 1900 for dinner would be a good choice.

We gave up our CRT dinner ressie for one at Park Fare and didn't regret it for a minute. Although our DD is only 4, we thought we would save CRT for another visit. Park Fare was really alot of fun, my sister who has been to the CRT breakfast said it was definitely the better choice as far the characters having more time to spend with you. But then I want to do it all -- CRT and PF at least once with DD!

CRT lunch is fun. I highly recommend it.

Like they do at CRT, the boys get swords and girls get wands?

 

[Joanna71985]

At GF? No they do not.

We do breakfast at 1900 (love Mary Poppins) and CRT for lunch or dinner. We have a special affection for the Castle.....never miss dining there. We love them both!

She isn't at CRT...she is at 1900 Park Fare for breakfast.

I haven't done 1900 Park Fare but did Akershus breakfast and CRT Lunch. Both were fantastic and I would do both of them again. At Akershus we got Sleeping Beauty at the front and then Snow White, Mulan, Jasmine and Mary Poppins to our table. And at CRT we had Snow White, Jasmine, Belle and Sleeping Beauty. And of course Cinderella downstairs. Not sure if I would do CRT for dinner personally. But we did meet Lady Tremaine and the stepsisters just near the entrance to CRT and they were hilarious. I would think about adding 1900 PF next time.

Ahhh thank you, I had seen her in a pic & post re CRT, but that must have been old, I guess we have a new char meal to go too!

I thought 1900 was better. But it's been a over a year since I went to either. I've been to CRT twice and I wasn't impressed either time (the first was back in like 2003 though). It just seemed more about shuttling folks in and out quickly. The food was 1900 was quite a bit better, though I felt the character interaction there was a bit rushed too. We had dinner there.

We love CRT... we have done both... while I have enjoyed the food very much at 1900 Park Fare I thought it to forever........ for the Cindy and Prince Charming to come around.... and then because we were teenagers and adults she barely said anything.... we have had much better interactions at CRT.... we also had grat interact at lunch in Norway with the princesses
