Parrot Cay / Topsiders lunch buffets?

[imgoingtodisney]

I just read that they are both themed buffets. Are they the same theme on the same day? Or for ex Topsiders Italian and Parrot Cay Chinese?

I am 99% sure they offer the same menu on the same days. We prefer the sit down to the Topsiders buffet, atleast the embarktation one, couldn't find anything the kids would eat. But they are basically same theme I think.

I think they're the same thing, and we much preferred Parrot Cay. Cooler, more seating, better service. It can be hard to find things that the kids (and even myself and other adults) like sometimes, but there is always fruit, ice cream, salads, and carved beef. Even hot dogs. When we travel, if my kids can't find something they like as "real" food, I will let them just eat desserts. I'm more concerned with them having a full stomach than the nutritional value.....they get that at home.
