Hi--we have AP's so we can float around Memorial Day Weekend as necessary. We have a PS at Trail's End for Sunday Evening for our whole group---but we are having a girls day on Saturday while dad is hosting his brother's bachelor party at Disney Quest (they are computer dweeps LOL!) and PI.

The girls: My sister and I, DD4 (almost 5) and DD2.5.

What we've done:
Garden Grill (not sure we want to try the NEW one), Chef Mickeys, Teppanyaki DR, Akershus (old one), Mexico, France, Rose & Crown, Biergarten, China (loooong time ago), Liberty Tree Tavern, Crystal Palace, CRT, Tony's, Brown Derby, Mama Melrose's, Rain Forest Cafe.

Looking for some good and yummy eats---for Saturday Afternoon/Evening that the kids would enjoy (but not necessarily the chicken nugget route).

Trying to do the EPCOT area---thinking even along the boardwalk/beach club area as that would all be new to us.

We are staying at All Star Music--but prefer to eat elsewhere.

Any ideas?
 
Beaches & Cream!

Sorry, can't think of another place that's more fun than B&C in the Epcot area. Definitely Beaches & Cream!



Beaches & Cream! :teeth:
 
I have B&C on the brain...I think I will go look up their menu. Is this counter service--and how exactly would we get to it?
 
You walk out the International Gateway at EPCOT and it is about a 10-15 walk to the Beach Club. It is sitdown and also quite small so try and go at an off hour.
 

I suggest you stay IN EPCOT and try marrakesh...the food is excellent, the atmosphere is great....live music, live belly dancer who occasionally pulls kids up to dance with her....
 
Always wanted to try Marrakesh--will have to see what my sister would like to do. My girls eat cous cous--so I'm covered there :).
 
I will never be in WDW and not eat at marrakesh (as long as its there)

thats a fact

I have to second the vote for Marrakesh. The food is great--definitely not your chicken fingers fare (although they do have hamburgers and pasta if need be). The restaurant itself is breathtaking; you can easily forget you are in a theme park. The music is lovely and then the belly dancer adds to the entertainment. I would try for a late lunch. They usually run a nice lunch special, plus it's less crowded and your (little) girls would have a better chance of being invited to dance with the belly dancer. Enjoy!
 
Have you thought about going over to the GF and having the afternoon tea. Its a perfect girls afternoon out type of thing.

That would be lovely.

I am attending a conference on Friday and Saturday at Gaylord Palms. Still fine tuning my agendas--but not sure I'd be out in time to try that. Worth a chek though--thanks!

(That's not the $200 tea is it?)

Does the GF tea do PS or is it walk-in?

I would get a PS. DD7 and I have done tea several times--it's fabulous. The lounge where it is served is quite small. I have seen them accept walk-ins, but I have also seen them turn parties away.

The menu is here http://www.allearsnet.com/menu/menu_gft.htm. We always get the Buckingham Tea and leave quite full and happy. Nowhere near $200, as you can see.

No it's definitely not! My girls have done the WOnderland Tea Party ($30 each) and we're going to try the afternoon tea (ala carte) in January. For my 2 dds and myself to go to the Perfect Princess Tea Party it would be $335. I don't want DH to truly have a heart attack!
