Just got back from my 3yr old's first trip to Disney. Had a very nice time though it was a bit much for him.
Had the meal plan and thought we'd eat with the big shots for a change;
Ate at:
Crystal Palace character bkfst: Delicous!!! Mickey makes a good bkfst. Will do it again.
Biergarten: Sausage lovers heaven! Pretzel rolls were great, beer flight was fun to try, entertainment was neat and involving. Favorite meal of the trip by far. Will do it again.
Counter svc. at chicken place in AK: Fantastic chicken!!! 2nd best meal of the trip!!! Will do it again.
Coral Reef, Hoop Dee Doo, Sci Fi, Hollywood & Vine.......
Disney should be ashamed of themselves. Food was overcooked, ribs were tough, steak was marginal, shrimp were small and stingy, etc. etc. The food at Disney in general is crap and prices are WAY out of line. The word 'chef' does not apply to anyone working at any of the above mentioned places. I've had better food at parking lot carnivals in the middle of nowhere.
I'd say a fair comparison for Mickey food would be Bonanza (or any random truck stop). During the planning stages i couldn't understand why anyone would bother to eat at Rainforest Cafe when in Disney. Now i understand. Mickey should just get out of the food business (because he is such a greedy little *******) and let the chains do it.
On a positive note we were there for the food/wine festival and i greatly enjoyed that aspect of it. Spent one evening walking the park and trying various combos (food/wine/beer) from the stands.
My wife and I had been giving some consideration to cruising with Mickey (vs. Celebrity as we have in the past) and have nixed that idea based on the food we ate on this trip. Mickey is sooooo greedy that he insists on serving truck stop slop to his guests and it really is dissapointing.
