Is there a difference in food between the 2 meals? What, if any, is serve at dinner that lunch is not serving? I noticed the dinner prices are more $ than lunch is so i am figuring there something more to serve at dinner. I have ressies for both lunch and dinner and am decided which meal to go to. Any advice? Thanks!!:flower1:
 

Here are the menus I found at Disneyworld.com



Lunch Selections


Creative Array of Salads
Freshly-made Soup
Spit-roasted Carved Meats
Freshly-baked Breads
Seasonal Fish and Vegetables
Pastas


Dinner Selections

Garden Fresh Salads
Spice-boiled Shrimp
Spit-roasted Carved Meats
Chicken, Beef, Fish, and Vegetable Creations
Freshly-prepared Pastas
House-made Sweets and Ice Cream



 
Of course, pricing s main difference. Starting at $30 for lunch up to $60 for dinner for adults, you may need to take out a short term loan for the meal.
Lunch has sweets and ice cream just like dinner. Main diff will be a special main item such as the shrimp.

We would "dawdle" while eating not getting in a big hurry. We would then be able to select from the next meal whether it be lunch or dinner. Plan to eat a late lunch and eat some dinner when they put it out.
I just checked times for all meals- below.
November 30, 2015
Breakfast
8:00 AM - 10:45 AM
Lunch
11:30 AM - 2:45 PM
Dinner
3:15 PM - 9:30 PM

Looks like eating at last time for lunch may afford you to eat off both menus. If you really take your time for the 10:45am seating, you can do lunch that way too. We liked that because it made it a brunch. From the time drink orders are taken until you would appreciably finish eating breakfast, that should take at least 1 hour. And that is only if you are actually seated at 10:45. You could do the same for late lunch at 2:45.
We never had a CM say anything to us. They were always getting tables cleared and so forth for next meal. We would leave a little larger tip.

We would always try to book the latest breakfast seating on early opening mornings for MK. Do as many attractions as we could before breakfast. We would do an OJ and maybe a muffin or something very light very early to tide us over. We would be finishing breakfast sometimes even before many other guests would arrive at the park- those who were on vacation and wanted to sleep in.

There are a ton of different selections on the lunch buffet. We go for that to save the money. The food is decent (especially for MK), but it's definitely not worth the dinner price in my opinion. The character interaction is great!
