Restaurant choices...Park Faire vs. Boma?

[farmbabe]

I am still a fairly new poster, but this board is so helpful!! My DH, DD4 and DD1 and me are travelling to Disney Jan.11-16. I am having a hard time figuring out where to eat with all of the choices!

I want to do a lot of character stuff because my DD4 loves the princesses and Mickey. So we are doing Norway bfast, Chef Mickey's, and Crystal Palace. When I talked to the CM about Norway - she told me Cinderella isn't there... So now I have to figure out where to see Cinderalla...or my daughter will be upset!

Your opinion on Park Faire? I'm looking at replacing Boma (current ADR) with Park Faire dinner so she can see him. But Boma looked so good...and my kids do like food other than chicken nuggets and hot dogs. I think they'll get tired of those "kid" options after a few days of it on the DDP.

Thanks for all of your help!

I personally prefer the food at Boma. Park Faire is alot more of the kiddie options that you said your kids will get sick of. They still have that at Boma, but they have many more unique options for them to try as well. The food is fantastic, especially dessert! But if you really want to meet Cinderella, you could also try Cinderella's Royal Table in MK

Personally I think Boma was absolutly horrible. I would never eat there again. I went to Boma with 12 people. Not one person in our entire party liked the food.

Cinderella's Gala Feast at 1900 park fare was a blast. The character interaction was fantastic. The ladies Tremaine were hilarious. The food was a basic buffet. You seem to have a lot of buffet picked which does give your children more variety.

When we went to Norway for dinner Cinderella was there. I know none of the princesses are a guarantee at Akershus. I think on average @ 5 princesses are there. Interaction was good.

Cinderella's royal table has alot less personal interaction.

Personally I would cancel Boma and do Park Fare. Although I would not do Boma if it were the only restaurant option remaining.

Have a great trip.

Wow, I have to say that this is probably the first time I read a negative review for Boma. We've never been there, but will be trying it on our next trip in May based on all the great reviews we've read.

Well I loved Park Fair when I was younger, but it was usually our only character meal b/c we were only there for a few days and stayed at GF. We did Boma last trip and we all liked it, and if you don't like the exotic stuff there are still traditional choices for picky eaters. GO WITH BOMA!
