Garden grill replacement?

[4mickeyfans]

Just found out THE LAND will be closed during our upcoming Feb. visit, and with it, our new fave character meal at the Garden Grill.

Anyone know of any other places currently featuring Pluto?

We know about breakfast at AK but we're not interested in that one...any others? Does he still do Chef Mickey's at dinner, or just at breakfast?

I have DD who doesn't even know about the trip - it will be an extra Christmas surprise! She has this "history" with Pluto, and each successive trip outdoes the last - we're talking signed photos in the mail, him presenting her with a CM lanyard, etc. I really don't know what to do for the next visit to keep this going but she's 9 and still and always a so I want to do something special.

I've thought about talking to a handler in the parks to arrange something but it just always seems easier to do it at a character meal where you're guaranteed character attention.

Any thoughts?

P.S. For what it's worth, just as a thank you to an unknown CM, those "magical" moments mentioned above (photo, lanyard, etc.) were all unsolicited and just on the part of the CM's - of course DD's entire trip was made!

Have you considered Liberty Tree Tavern for dinner? I'm pretty sure Pluto is there - at least I hope to see him there next month!

Kaycee...

Totally forgot about that one! I'll call for PS and see if they say he's there - we've never done that one and we've done almost all of them, even all the ones at different resorts.

If you remember, post again after your trip and let me know what you thought

I was also going to suggest Liberty Tree Tavern. We tried this on our last trip in September and really enjoyed it. I think Pluto was there - I just checked my notes and I did not write down who we saw - sorry. But it is a really great dinner

Pluto was at the Liberty Tree in Sept for dinner...
