Is Auberge worth it nowadays?

[jothp]

Yep. They all change twice yearly, that's why I end up taking so many pictures in the restaurant section

and we all love you for it.

Agreed

Don't forget to check the menu again before you go as it change in Nov/ early Dec. They change twice a year

Thanks for pointing that out! I'm not too concerned as I'm a fairly adventurous eater and the menus over the past year or so have all looked wonderful to me My little sister might struggle a bit, but as long as there are princesses and she gets a nice dessert she'll be happy!

We've just been on Monday.

Met Snow White, Aurora, the mice, Cinderella and Prince Charming. It seems the prince is mostly Prince Charming nowadays, I chatted to a couple of people.

The service was not good - we waited over half an hour before they even took our order. Boyfriend was not impressed because meanwhile tables who had arrived later (but they had kids in the party) had even received their starters already!

We both had the grilled vegetables as starter. Maybe that's different in France, but personally I expected those to be warm and you know, actually grilled. They more tasted like pickled to us.

He had the goose and declared it excellent. In fact he devoured it so quick I didn't even get the chance to take a picture.

I had the mushroom tarte and was very disappointed. Tasted like some cheap instant mashed potatoes with half a mushroom shot through. The salad was somewhat okay.

Dessert hasn't changed since I went last in December.

The kid's dessert now has a mini white chocolate slipper, if I recall correctly it used to be bigger. There's still that ice cream cone thing and that pudding like stuff in the glass. They've added in something looking like a small piece of chocolate cake.

The character interaction was very nice though. In the past we had some problems as an adult only table. This time Snow White came back twice, Aurora once, and the mice were all over us. I had done a drawing of the girl mice and asked them to sign it. Perla liked it so much that she ran backstage and even obtained the signature of the third mouse on the picture for me. Poor mousey was stuck working backstage.

I was also wondering, now that the Rapunzel's photo spot has gone, might she be appearing there more often? I know it would make my sister's trip since she loves Rapunzel (she has golden strawberry-blonde hair down to her hips and has made it her ambition to get a photo with her!). Has anyone actually seen her, or at least seen photos of her, in Auberge?

With one exception I've always seen Rapunzel go in or leave when I was walking past the Princess Pavillion. That one exception was of course when I decided I'd actually get in line... I met Ariel instead.
