Just returned part 2..the dining

[officer tigger]

Our dining experience was pretty well. Took full advantage of the kitchen and fridge.
Stopped at the Publix that was near Downtown Disney and bought stuff for breakfast and lunch. Packed a small soft sided cooler everyday with sandwhiches, snacks and water. For just over $20.00 we bought 1 lb. each of turkey and ham. A pack of Kraft singles and two loaves of bread and mustard. That lasted us almost all week. Compared to what the meals cost there, that worked out great for us. The cooler fit nicely under one of our strollers.
For dinner we ate at Moracco, Germany and Mexico for dinner. Germany we always love. Mexico was expensive and very dark. My in-laws couldn't read the menu. However the food was very good and I loved it.
We also did the storybook breakfast at Norway. My daughter loved it. We saw Belle, Jasmine, Aurora, Mulan and Snow White. The food was good and each princess spent a few minuts at each table.
At the MK we ate dinner at Tony's. It was very expensive and the food was cold. We have not been there in a couple of years and won't be back for sometime again.
We also went to the Whispering Canyon. The food was great. We did the all you can eat portion. The atmosphere just wasn't us. I don't mind signing happy birthday once in a while but we did it six times during our meal. Or maybe since it was our last night everyone in our group was just grumpy.

I think this is a reference to the Publix across from the outlet malll on Vineland Ave. From Downtown Disney, take Hotel Plaza Blvd. to 535 (Apopka-Vineland Road). Turn right at the light (this is the intersection where you go straight to enter the parking lot for the Crossroads Shopping Center). Go south on 535 under I-4. Be sure to move over the the left hand lane so you can go left at the light for Vineland Ave. This will be the next light after the entrance to I-4. Publix is about a mile down Vineland on the left hand side. There is also a Walgreens in this shopping center.
