Newbie to Character Dining, What do You Think?

[adell557]

We are going to Disney for DD4 birthday, we also have DS who will be almost 2. We want this to be a really memorable vacation b/c this will be the only one this year and they LOVE disney. We have been to Disney several times, but this will be the first time that we do several Character Dinings. In past trips we have done Akershus for Dinner once and Chef Mickey's for Dinner once and that has been it. Here is what we have planned for this trip, what do you think of my choices? DD is a princess nut and DS loves Mickey. I want to get the best bang for my buck and have things for both of them to enjoy and have fun at. Any suggestions or feedback would be greatly appreciated! TIA

Monday: 1900 Park Fare Dinner
Tuesday: Ohana Breakfast
Wednesday: Alice Tea Party
Thursday: CRT Breakfast
Friday: My Disney Girl Tea Party
Saturday: Liberty Tree Tavern

No CP for us, no love for the Pooh clan at our house

Maybe someone can help me out here, but I don't think your choices include Mickey. You said your son loves Mickey...unless he is at Ohana (?) you won't have him. Garden Grill or Chef Mickey's would have Mickey.

LTT has Minnie but not Mickey. Great meal, though. Of your choices we have been to 1900, CRT, and LTT and loved them all.

I think your choices sound great. You've got a good mix of princesses and Mickey and the gang. When DD8 was younger, we also did a character meal everyday. Have a great trip!

Mickey is at Ohana along with Lilo, Stich and Pluto...

You can add another with Mickey...We love Chef Mickey and Tusker House for breakfast...Both have Mickey.

I was thinking the same thing - Chef Mickey's since the little one loves Mickey. There's an awful lot of Princess going on there on that list...

CRT is the best however Epcots Storybook Breakfast with Belle is good too. I think it the only place you can eat with Jasimine

I was thinking about scheduling Chef Mickey's for lunch for DH and DS while DD and I are at the tea party?? Do they do a character lunch? If not, any suggestions about what they could do for a little "boy's time" granted DS is only going to be 22 months, we don't have park tickets for that day,so it would have to be outside of the parks.

They do not do lunch....they serve breakfast until 11:30....then they open at 5:00 for dinner.

I agree about trying to work in Chef Mickey's and you can have more than one character meal a day
