Need some help please

I am having a hard time deciding between a few restaurants and could really use my help from my friends on the Dis!

Dinner at Hollywood Brown Derby or Flying Fish Cafe?

The day we are going to MVMCP should we have a late lunch at LTT 2:30 and then grab some CS later in the night if we get hungry or have dinner at LTT or Crystal Palace at 4:00?

Breakfast at Chef Mickey's or Cape May Cafe? We are planning Epcot for that day and I know Cape May would be closer but I don't mind taking a taxi to Chef Mickey's either. Just looking for a good breakfast and some fun with the characters.

Lunch at Mama Melrose or Sci Fi. We will be in the park for the day and really do not want to leave to have lunch somewhere because we want to do as much as we can and see the parade. This is one of our sleep in days so we will not be having any breakfast and will most likely eat early around 11:30 or Noon.

So please give me your thoughts so I can narrow this down.

Okay, please realize these are "personal" opinions. We do not like Hollywood Brown Derby at all and do not think it is worth the cost. We have never done Flying Fish. I would do LTT for lunch at 2:30 and counter service later (we loved the food at lunch); we have not done Cape May Cafe for breakfast, but are doing so this year. We hear it is not as "noisy" and the character interaction and the food is better (we haven't done Chef Mickey's for breakfast in years because we always do Crystal Palace for breakfast); we love Mama Melrose. Unfortunately, this restaurant gets a lot of mixed reviews, but we have always had a good meal and we dine here every year for the Fantasmic Package. We have not done Sci Fi since our boys were younger (they are now 22 and 20). The food was okay, but once or twice eating in the cars was enough for us.

I'll second that about the Brown Derby. The price is ridiculous and the food at LeCellier is way better for about the same price.

Just my humble opinion:

Flying Fish - nice to be at the boardwalk at night
Dinner at LTT - you will fill up and not have to wait in line at MVMCP - love the characters at dinner too
Chef Mickey's- hands down. This is a must do for our family
Sci-Fi or MM? a toss up. Sci-Fi for atmosphere but MM for good food.

Hope you have a great time.
