I prefer Spoodles......I am not wild about funny antics that go on at Whispering Canyon. I prefer to just eat my food and enjoy it without all the hoopla..
Quickest way from POFQ, hmmmm, you could take a cab, they are the fastest I think. You could bus it to MGM and take the boat to the Boardwalk, or you could bus to Epcot and walk through the park to the International Gateway and go to the Boardwalk that way. Or....you could bus it to DTD and grab another bus to the Boardwalk..basically I would allow an hour to travel any of these routes. You can bus to a park and then get a bus to the Boardwalk, Swan and Dolphin, or Yacht and Beach Club Resorts, and just walk over to Spoodles.
