CRT or Akershus?

[Motsy]

My family will heading back to Disney in January, and I'm trying to decide which princess restaurant we should do. We currently have reservations at 1900 Park Fare for dinner, CRT for lunch, and Akershus for lunch. I know we want to keep 1900 Park Fare because the sisters are hysterical so even the boys are amused. Plus, it's different to me since it's not exactly a restaurant of just princesses. I have an 8 year old boy, 7 year old girl, 4 year old boy, and 2 year old girl. We did CRT back in the beginning of 2012 for breakfast and haven't done it since then. This year we tried Akershus for the first time for lunch. We enjoyed both. I was going to do Akershus again since it's only 1 table service credit, but then decided to do CRT since it's been a long time since we've done it, and I know my 7 year old would love to eat at the castle. I'm just trying to decide if it's worth using 2 credits per person. Thoughts?

We've done both Akershus and CRT multiple times. My gut just prefers Akershus. I love the idea of eating in the castle, I just feel like the Akershus experience is more genuine. If they cost the same amount of credits, I'd do CRT just because of the castle thing. But since it costs an extra credit, I would go with Akershus. Also, Belle's yellow gown > Cinderella's 'new' look.

It won't be what you want to hear but I think CRT and Akershus are both better than 1900 PF AND you don't have to leave the park for Akershus or CRT. If you've got three credits to use on tow meals your best option IMO would be CRT and Akershus.

That being said, if I had to choose between the two options you gave I would probably go with Akershus simply because of the few signature meals I think are worthy of two table service credits, I don't think CRT is one of them (and I enjoy CRT).
