Cape May Cafe dinner (ohh how I miss you Oreo bon-bons, my fav!!!)
People complain all the time about the CS places at Hollywood Studios, but I love love love Starring Rolls. I guess people forget that it's not just a bakery, it also has really huge sandwiches. There's usually not much of a line, and we go there every trip. They used to have a bagle with cream cheese and smoked salmon platter in the mornings which we loved, but I didn't see it on the last trip.
OMG I think those bon bons are total hidden gems of disney. Besides the mussels, ribs, and other fantastic seafood, those bonbons are heavenly (and we make sure to ALWAYS leave enough room for these!) Considering CMC has delicious food and great service, and the tables are seperate enough that you dont feel on top of other people (hello Chef mickeys!), we always make sure we have an ADR here! I hear so many people rave about the other buffet restaurants, people don't give Cape May enough credit!
Love Cape May for breakfast too!! Great character interaction.
Y'all are so mean for telling people the Captain's Grille is good - DON'T BELIEVE THEM, PEOPLE!!! It's a trap! I heard they use water from Bay Lake in their soup! And they lie, they don't even HAVE a Captain! Chef Mickey's is much better...just pick up the phone and make your ADRs there and we'll forget about all this Captain's Grille nonsense!
I couldn't get any first choice ADRs for a late planned trip in Feb. I was trying to make them online and The Garden Grove at the Swan Hotel popped up as a suggestion. They have 3 alternating buffet themes--we were there for Mediterranean night and it was fabulous!! Fun dining room with a huge oak tree in the center with twinkling lights...and Goofy and Pluto were there too. Table side salad served, then you help yourself to the buffet. Good drinks too! I thought we were settling, but found a hidden gem (the place was never more than half full???). We walked around the boardwalk for a while afterward.
