DH and I just recently put LLT back on our list. But we prefer lunch, as there is a A la carte menu, and we prefer a lighter fare, then the platter...while good its just to heavy for us. I am a local and have celebrated the 4th of July in MK... and its soooo crowded... and hot and beyond humid, people were passing out while we were trying to get to the monorail. So I would take into consideration the heat and humidity when picking a dinner spot. We did Crystal Palace around 2:00 ish and then did rides, like the people mover, liberty square riverboat, Tom Sawyer island, Mickey Philharmagic, Monster Inc, Carousel of Progress, and the Railroad, not in that order, but we hit all those, and they are on the milder side. So sometime to let everything digest before hitting up some of the mountains and other rides. We stopped around 8:00 to grab a little something, at a quick serve Rays we split a BBQ sandwich and fries, and got Mickey ice cream right before the fireworks... and we watched from the Bridge at BOG. We also have done BOG for dinner, and then watched the fireworks from the bridge out in front of the restaurant. We did not even ride a ride that day, just dinner and fireworks...
We love the Plaza solid meal all the way around.
