Discounted Food Is Always the Yummiest! Update 1/23

Good review so far. I love 50's, it's my fav at DHS. I loved LTT when we ate there for lunch.

There have been reports of people requesting (and receiving) the rolls and honey butter at lunch

Mmm, that is good to know! Thanks!

I had that goal too. But I've eaten at all the places I really wanted to try, and the menus at the other restaurants are just kind of "meh". Our lunch there in 2010 was awesome, one of the best meals of that trip. I also ate there in 2012 on my birthday, and while the entree (pot roast) was good, the dessert was pretty bad, and the appetizer had been changed from the previous visit-less food for the same price.

Interesting. Who knows, by the time I make it there it could very well be a few years and I'm sure the menu will be different yet again!

Wednesday morning brought one of our favorite meals on property-Crystal Palace! We've eaten there once for dinner and twice now for breakfast. Our ADR was for 10:20am, and we checked in about 10 minutes early. Here's one of the decorations outside.

We were called to our table right on time, and I'm 99% sure it was the exact same table we ate at on our last trip there in 2010! Our server was Monika, and it took her a bit longer than we found acceptable to come get our drink orders. Pooh came around pretty quickly.

Then it was up to the buffet for round one...the ever so boring Pooh's Puffed French Toast and a Mickey Waffle with Strawberry topping!

Boring, but yummy! You can't go wrong with these two items.

Just minutes later, we saw Piglet.

Heigh ho, heigh ho, back up to the buffet I go...

Bagel with cream cheese, bacon, and breakfast potato casserole. Again, very boring. The casserole was super delicious though! I need to see if allears has that recipe.

And a plate of fruit.

As usual, pineapple, grapes, and watermelon were amazing, cantaloupe was decent, and honeydew was just kind of meh. It always seems really mushy to me.

Here comes Tigger!

One last trip to the buffet. It was getting close to lunchtime now, so they shut our side of the line down. We started feeling a little rushed around this point.

A croissant, Southwest Breakfast Pizza, and that interesting glob in the back is Breakfast Lasagna. The croissant was soft and buttery, if not particularly warm. I was surprised by how much I liked the pizza because I normally don't care for eggs, or peppers, or really most of the ingredients on it. But it had a nice little kick to it without being overwhelming. Now, the breakfast lasagna. They had taken this off the menu when we were there in 2010, so I didn't get to try it. I was very excited to see it back now. And it was such a disappointment when I finally tried it. Part of it was overly sweet and part of it had no flavor at all. The whole thing was just mushy and as much as I hate to say it, gross. I managed maybe two bites before I gave up. I really wanted to like it because so many people love it, but I just couldn't.

Our last character of the morning was Eeyore.

This meal was on the dining plan, so no out of pocket expense except for the tip. Once again, we loved our meal here and I recommend this restaurant to everyone consistently! GO if you get the chance!
