Awwww!
It was such a wonderful character interaction! I’m so glad that he’s back to meeting guests.
Funny... I've eaten there several times and never really took the time to really see the entrance. Huh.
They have so many fabulous details in that restaurant - it was SO well done!
So that's what they did with it.
That’s how I remember it during the old dinners as well (although the kiosks were still there but covered up).
I like it too, but the West Wing has more stuff going on.
Plus... I get enough snow at home.
The West Wing is fun to see but it’s kind of dark to eat in there (especially with young kids). And yes, I’m sure you have plenty of snow this year!
I was really sad when that changed. I get it - you may as well capitalize on the success of the restaurant, but removing the flexibility and several of the great choices (my mussels! The dessert cart!) really downgraded the place, in my opinion.
So.... You're saying there's mac n cheese?
Probably so. "But my baby always has carrots and apple slices."
I don’t doubt some folks are VERY salty about their children not getting a full meal.
Well, he does own the place, ya know...
Absolutely!
mmmm... Sooooo good.
Back in the day, I'd go and order the soup and nothing else. It's a meal onto itself.
YES, it’s SO good. I’m glad they didn’t take that away with the mussels!
We actually love sweet potatoes, but their particular preparation was not very appetizing.
Our waitress was a delight. They put excellent people in that restaurant - our last server there was a delight as well!
The desserts were fine, but those cupcakes from the dessert cart were WAY better.
Aw such a cute pic! I love that stained glass mural too.
Thank you! Even though I look hot and sweaty (it was SO HOT when we were there!) it was nice to be in a picture.
I agree! I do like the times we've sat in the West Wing but one of my favorite parts of Be Our Guest is the music, and you can't hear that in the West Wing!
I love seeing the West Wing but it’s not my favorite place to eat my meal. I ate there once when they still had QS lunch - I enjoyed it, but the short quick service was plenty of time in the West Wing for me.
Glad you had a good meal overall - did you happen to notice the noise? The last few times we've been it's been SO NOISY that it kind of felt like a cafeteria and it was just loud.
Now that you mention it, it WAS noisy in there! We could still carry on conversation but it was one of our noisier restaurants. I believe Chef Mickey’s was worse but thankfully there we were off near just a few tables so it wasn’t too bad.
LOL 100% agree on fruit
Honestly, what was I doing that day?

I think the heat got to me - additional snacks outside of an air-conditioned space must not have been appealing.
