I've seen lots of pictures of the WOC picnic meals, and a good blog with pictures about the Wine Country Trattoria WOC dinner. But has anyone posted pictures of the Ariel's WOC dinner?
I have some at home which I will post in a couple of hours. The dishes do seem pretty identical to the Princess Character Meal to me, with the exception of that chocolate film strip on the dessert platter.
We also looked at the menus for both places, and thought Ariel's was a better choice for our tastes. It's great to see that we made the right choice, so thank you for the pictures! Now I only have 4 months to go, but who's counting (me)?

That was how we decided the first time we went.....we liked what we saw on the menu. We were thrilled & we went back again!! If we plan on WoC in October....we'll be going to Ariel's for sure! Enjoy!!
My kids are older and hated the meal here. DD11 chose the tri tip and while she liked the steak, wouldn't eat anything else but the bread.
DS15 chose the italian sausage and pasta and said it was one of the nastiest things he'd ever tried to eat.
My husband and I also had the tri tip and he liked it, I thought it was just ok.
The anti pesto platter well the only thing that was eaten was the top layer with the cheese and olives. The veg layer was nasty. I tried it and it didn't taste right. I did have a bit of the salad and that was good.
We ended up having to find some burgers for the kids to eat after that meal.
And within an hour of eating, I was sick - once I got rid of the food I was fine to put it as mildly as I can think of right now. And I didn't have it happen at any other time during our trip.
The best part was the area for WOC. We got there 45 minutes beforehand and got a spot on the stairs in the preferred dining area so we could see really well.
I would say save your money if you can get FP's early in the day.
My DD had a question about the dessert tray... how many people shared it? It looks like there are 8 desserts on the tray, and you had 8 people? These are mini-desserts, right? Not full-size? (Basically, she wants to try them all and was disappointed that it looked like she'd only get 1 dessert.)
