Must have ADR's for newbies?

[mersailes]

My mom is considering a trip to Disney with a group of 6 in October at the end of free dining. In our group are mostly teens/early twenties. Since I'm the only one who has been to Disney, I thought I'd ask for any must have ADR's? Mom is a little leery of character dining. *weird I know* She thinks she won't enjoy having her meal interupted or something. I think I could talk her into it if the food was good enough though. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have two teens and they insist on doing Chef Mickey's, 1900 Park Fare and Crystal Palace character meals.

Chef Mickey's is very fun and you get to meet Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto, and Goofy.

1900 Park Fare (Dinner) has Cinderella, Prince Charming, Lady Tremaine (Step Mother) and the step-sisters. One of the step-sisters got my DS15 to dance with her. It was a blast.

Crystal Palace has Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet.

We also like Biergarten (Germany) and Le Cellier (Canada) at Epcot.

Ohana, tappan edo and 1900 Park fare were my favorites. I think teens/adults would enjoy all of these.

I would suggest....and all for different reasons, to get a full dining experience at WDW!!!

Boma, Crystal Palace, Beirgarten, Hoop Dee Doo Revue, Sci Fi Dine In, Yak and Yeti, Tusker House Breakfast!, Cape May, Teppan Edo

Any and all of those are sure to make for an unforgettable trip!!!

Tusker House Breakfast is a great one in terms of characters but w/ yummy food.

Raglan Road for lunch or dinner

I'm in my early 20's...here are my favs!!!!

1) Kona Cafe
2) Tusker House
3) Crystal Palace
4) Le Cellier


Those are the ones that just really stuck out for me. I must point out that tusker house and crystal palace have characters....I was worried about that too, since I was there with my boyfriend, and neither one of us are disney fanatics (we went as a christmas trip). The characters really only spend time with people with young children, they just come to you for a pic, than leave. I am actually glad we did this, cause the pic's are cute!
