Crystal Palace~~July 16~~Breakfast
We had 8:05 a.m. PS. We got to the podium at around 8:10 because it's hard to resist taking pictures of an almost empty Main Street.
We were seated at about 8:20. Our server was Sherri and even though it was a buffet, she was very helpful. The food here is plentiful. I liked trying the peanut butter pancakes that were made fresh at the omlet station. If you ask for 3, you'll get them shaped in a "hidden" Mickey. This breakfast is sort of a blurr for me. After I got my pancakes, a GIANT party of about 50 people came in. They had on lime green shirts, but they were no Disers. It was near impossible to get to the food after they arrived. They all decided to go up to the buffet at the same time. It was pretty chaotic. They were blocking up the walkways and everything. I forgot to get some butter, but there was no easy way to get back up there. Luckily Sherri asked if she could bring us anything. She brought us some bacon, pastry and butter. Even she commented about how crazy it was up there. I know that the lime green shirt people were not Disers because they kept sending the children up to different tables to chase the characters down. They would actually interrupt family pictures and videos. My favorite moment was when Winnie the Pooh "shooed" them back to their tables.
Priceless. Even through all of this chaos, the characters made it over to our table and gladly posed for pictures even though we were a table of 2 adullts. I would have loved to linger around this restaurant and go back for seconds, but it was just too crazy in there. If that giant party were not around, I'm sure my experience would be much different. Meal came to $36.19.
Overall Grade: C+
Narcoossees~~July 16~~Dinner
This was by far the best meal of the trip. We had 7:10 PS and were seated immediately. Natalie was our server and she was very good. We were seated by the window overlooking the MK. My boyfriend started with the Seafood Chowder. He really liked it. I had the Field Greens and loved the dressing they put on. For our main course, I had the Salmon and it tasted wonderful. My boyfriend had the Whole Maine Lobster. He said it was the best lobster he has ever eaten. We shared the strawberry cobbler for dessert and it was just enough to satisfy us. We also ended the meal with coffee. Some people report that this place is too noisey. It is not a quiet place, but it definitley was not loud. I like the atmosphere here. My only regret was that I didn't make a PS during fireworks time because I'm sure it's a beautiful experience. There weren't too many children here during our dinner, I don't know if that's typical or not. Meal came to $123.54--the most expensive of our trip, but worth every penny.
