Heather, Thank you for the wonderful reviews. I know that we will def. try Citricos and Narcoosees on our next trip. I can't believe that we stayed at the GF and didn't try them!

Take care of yourself and I look forward to reading more of your TR.

I think you need to go to both

Note to Heather: We have two kids in college. The spirit is willing, but the wallet is weak.

ok everyone sorry for the delay.

9/15/08
Cape May Buffet Breakfast
DDP: 1 TS credit each

if you read my TR, you know I was so frustrated this mornng b/c there were NO busses going from MK to Beach club. we were 20 minutes late for our ADr and explained what happned to the girl at the podium. she gave us a pager and we were seated within 5 minutes.

we were seated to the left of teh restaurant at a 2 person table.
this is the only food picture I have

breakfast buffets just don't really excite me b/c I don't eat a lot for breakfast. Bobby went back several times of course, and I think i went back once. I did have a good time with the characters though


We were headed to Blizzard beach after this and I was itching to go. all of the sudden bobby got a bad stomach ache. I gave him some medicine and finally it passed. crisis averted!
service was not great here. We had a girl who barely spoke ENglish. She was nice, but only came b twice the whole meal to clear plates or refill drinks and it seemed a little too hectic in there (not enough servers maybe?) anyway, it was good, not GREAT food, I ahve had better, and we will probably not be going back.

and 1/2 stars.

$18.99 x's two= $37.98
plus tax: $40.44

Hi Heather! I just got here. We moved from Cincinnati to Toledo and just finished unpacking. Got back online this weekend and am catching up with my boards. Loving the food pics and review. We are doing the dining plan for the first time in Sept. We may have to try a Grand Floridian restaurant after this TR.

hhmm....I have never done chef mickeys. my 2 favorite breakfast buffets are Boma and 1900 park fare. with CP coming in 3rd.
maybe you will have a totally different experience at cape may. I am not a big breakfast eater. the food wasn't bad it just wasn't that exciting, and the restaurant had tables REALLy close together and the service was bad, but you could get a great server! I know that doesnt help much...sorry!

Hi, I have been lurking on your reports and enjoying them a lot! I had to come out of hiding and say that the picture of you and Minnie at Cape May is just too cute!!

ok for lunch this day we ate at blizzard beach. well, I did. Bobby was still stuffed from cape may. I wanted something to eat, but we didnt want to use a TS credit that would be silly. But no where can you use a snack credit for real food. this made bobby really angry b/c snacks are generally 4 dollars and under, and a hotdog was 3 dollars but they wouldnt give it to us as a snack credit. so we paid OOP for that and I got a pina coloda icee/snocone thing with a snack credit. we left BB by 2:00 or so and ate concierge snacks until dinner that night.

ok, Since our ADR's were all messed up now since we added Citricos, we had no ADR for tonight. Our plan was to go to NArcoossees again but they were all booked. even the guy at the concierge desk couldn't get us in. But he told us to go down before they open (5:30) tell them our situation and asked if we could be squeezed in.

So thats just what we did. The lady said "ok go have a seat" so we did. they called every other party that was there for teh first 5:30 seating time. then it was just us left in the waiting room.


I finally got it with the monorail

ok so back to where we were, sititng in the waiting room. I glanced into the restaurant, and there were PLENTY i mean PLENTY of open seats. I figured ppl made reservations then never cancelled and didnt show up. so people, PLEASE if you change plans just CALL AND CANCEL so someone else can enjoy a nice meal!

anyway...we get seated, by the window, about halfway down. very nice spot

our server gave us free champagne and we had personalized menus for our anniversary.

We had this server when we were here on our last trip..or honeymoon...I dont remember but she is nice and very funny.

We probbaly both got sprite, and for appetizers I got the shrimp again (for bobby) and he got the seafood bisque.

I didnt take a pic of the shrimp since we got it last time, same for the entrees, I got steak and bobby got lobster.
our entrees were fabulous as usual, and bobby really liked his appetizers. for dessert we got the almond crusted cheesecake and something I do not see on the menu. on the reciept it says "berry pyramid" it was just a bowl of fruit lol. it was very good and fresh and light, just what I needed after a big meal. Maybe I just asked if they could give me some fruit? i don't remember.

Anyway, we left this meal very happy and I give it the same rating i gave it last time. we will definately be back! We love it here!

I really want to try Victoria and Alberts chefs table some time....what an experience that would be!!!

I think I said this in your TR, but I love those pics of you at Narcoosees. So pretty! I'm looking forward to hear if you're trying anywhere new in May. I am so desperate to go back! I have checked out the 4/3 deal and also a code I got for my April vacation, but of course it's blacked out for both. I just have to wait for our quickie trip in December!
