I want to say UP FRONT that this is the BEST of all the character meals/buffets that we have done, and we've done a lot of them! We ate here on Monday night, the 24th of September. These photos are not all-inclusive of everything on the buffet, but probably 75% of it at least.
Pasta station is first, the dish on the left doesn't look like much in the photo except a big glob of white, but it was one of my two favorite things at the buffet - Baby shrimp and asparagus tips in alfredo sauce. OMG. SOooooo good. I didn't even try the one on the right, and don't even know what it is except obviously a red sauce with meat of some kind. I believe the two skillets in the rear of the photo are just more of the same dishes, being prepared.
Salad station: black bean salad, some kind of vegetable salad, broccoli salad (really good!) cherry tomatoes with some kind of white cheesy-looking balls (didn't try that, I'm weird about cheese) - oh, just found out this is tomato-mozzarella salad so it WAS cheese, glad I didn't eat it LOL, pasta salad There were also peel and eat shrimp which looked good and large-sized but I don't like to have to peel my own shrimp LOL.
Strawberry Soup - YOU MUST TRY THIS! It might sound weird, but it's VERY YUMMY. Tastes like strawberries with melted vanilla ice cream all stirred up together.
Main entree station: from the front center dish going back and left....I think that was curry chicken with couscous, next one left is baked salmon with dill cream sauce - YUM, can you tell I love seafood?, portabello raviolis with a pesto cream - THIS was my other favorite dish, separate photo of it below, mussels in the top middle row, and I don't know about the others, didn't eat them.
Here's another one of the portabello raviolis with a pesto cream - SO GOOD.
The carved meat station, prime rib and turkey breast:
The kids' buffet: chicken nuggets, macaroni and cheese, corn, french fries, cheese pizza, mini corn dog nuggets
Uncrustables for the kids
Dessert station: this is where my group really felt the offerings were "lacking" as compared to the rest of the buffet. I didn't even have anything from the desserts, and I am a big dessert fan. Wait, oh yes I did, I had the apple cobbler, and after having it at LeCellier a couple of nights prior, it just didn't compare.
Here I am with the "other" Prince Charming, as I have to call him that in front of my DH.

. Glad to hear they offer Salmon and it sounds great too.
just not really up to par with the rest of the buffet, IMO.
It looks like there's a lot of great vegetarian options for me and the desserts look really yummy. I'm definitely thinking about making an ADR now.
