Hi Tinkie -

MK Day: What about trying for CRT for breakfast and getting the added bonus of some face time with some princesses?
Or having dinner at the CG in the Contemporary for some firework viewing?

Universal: Since I'm a Parrothead, I'd suggest lunch at Margaritaville Cafe at Universal instead of the Hard Rock - kids are welcome!

MGM/EPCOT Day: Try Marrakesh in Morrocco - you will be pleasantly surprised!

These are just my ideas - whatever you choose, have an awesome trip!

OOOhhhh - you tweak good!

Well, we aren't getting to MK until close to lunchtime AND I have a boy with me who would be unimpressed with the Cinderella/girlie thing (NOT ME!!!) so lunch is probably better!

I, secretly want to go to Margaritaville...but was wondering about kid-ability.....when I looked it up...it looked like all they served was drinks (which is A.O.K. by me..but me little son might complain!!!

Tell me it isn't true, I'd LOVE to go there!

Ok tinkie - We took my 3yo DS and 14yo DNiece last year to Margaritaville and were treated like royalty. They have a complete menu including a kids menu (which can be linked to from the margaritaville.com site - click Cafes - then the link to Orlando). It's absolutely laid back and definitely a good time. Food would be just as good as Hard Rock, with a better gift shop and Jimmy Buffett music!

Have you considered the Crystal Palace for your lunch at MK. While it has Pooh Characters (Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and Eeyore), I would give it a shot becuase it has a great buffett. Your 8yo would surely find something there and then you'd have the added character benefit. You may also want to consider counter service. I'd recommend Pecos Bills in Frontierland - usually adequate seating and a reasonable menu with a free fixin's bar - excellent!

Please don't feel like I'm discouraging you from eating in the Castle though!
