UPDATED-Norway Princess PICS- We're Celebrating- with Food!

[Joshua_me]

THANKS
for your reviews !



That is by far the best fried chicken I've seen come out of 'prime time' in quite a long while.

We've had it a couple of times when it was nearly inedible. I hope things are improving there. Kind of makes up for you and yours being seated in the 'time out' room, I hope.

 

[LMO429]

great dining reviews subscribing!

 

[basketlacey]

Enjoying your review! I can't wait for my first trip to Prime Time! It will be here soon!

 

[VegasMike21]

Awesome reviews so far, sorry to hear you didn't get a good waiter at Prime Time, hopefully we get a fun waiter/waitress when we go in a few weeks.

 

[Calgary DISHeads]

We had a great waitress last time - the food was mediocre, but we didn't go for the food. DD really wants to go back this time, but we are pretty hesitant because of the hit and miss experience. Best part of our meal was the onion rings which we would have to pay OOP for this time.

For lunch today we ate in Frontierland. I was excited to try the Golden Oak outpost. Aurora was, too, as she wanted chicken nuggets. Anyone seeing a theme here? There’s no adult menu here, so Aurora gets an adult meal with the “good” chicken nuggets.

She also asked for apples for her side. The guy tells me they’re out of apples but should have some shortly if I was ok waiting. I said that was fine. Then a lady working behind begins yelling at him that they have no apples. He argues back that someone’s bringing some and she says no. He apologizes and I take a side of fries instead. He offers to bring the apples to me if the come. I show him where we’ll be sitting. I get the fried Chicken Breast Sandwich. Comes topped with lettuce, tomatoes, and ranch dressing. I also get a side of fries. (Sorry, I took a bite before I remembered the picture.)

Not much choice for dessert so we both get cookies. Since it’s an adult meal the cookies are in a 2 pack, all of which we take home with us. To drink I got a bottle of water and the girls got a large blue Powerade. About a minute after I sit down, the nice man brings us a bag of apples. Bonus -they are High School Musical apples!

Bonus shot of the drink again, I am still taken by the size of the pops you get!

The food here is SO good. Ok, well the fries are standard Disney fries as are the cookies, but the sandwich is SO good. The chicken breast was pretty big and thick and I loved the toppings. Bonus that the girls got an adult meal, and an extra side. I would SO return here.

Total cost- $ 29.80. Used 2 CS credits.

Pirate wasn’t in the mood for chicken so he went into Peco’s Bills. He got the BBQ Pork Sandwich served with fries $8.69 and I believe more carrot cake. He also got a bottle of water, but didn’t drink it as he shared the Powerade with Aurora and Minnie. (Between the 3 of them they still had some left over.) The extra bottle of water was consumed within the next hour at the MK. It was hot and the extra water was nice! He said the sandwich was ok, I tried it and it was eh. I’m picky about my BBQ sauce, though. The BBQ sauce was Kraft quality. Pecos had a huge toppings bar which I don’t believe he made use of, other than to bring Aurora and Minnie shredded cheese and me ranch dressing for my fries. At this point, I’m really starting to tire of Disney fries. But yet I keep shoveling them in. No pictures, Pirate is not fully getting the point of me taking pictures of the food. Especially CS, he's like "It's french fries."

Total cost- $16.11. Used 1 CS credit.

Supper tonight was at Chef Mickey’s. This is one of the few places (only place?) we’ve eaten at every time we go to the World. We got there about 20 minutes early. Since we were coming from Pop, we didn’t want to be late, but hit the bus and monorail just right. I figured we’d look in the gift store to kill some time. Pirate noticed the VERY long line and decided to go check-in while we browsed. I waited about 5 minutes and then went to meet him. He already had a pager and we sat on some (new to us) comfy couches. Our pager went off almost immeadiately and we went to get our picture taken. Aurora was cranky (again) at this point (can’t even remember what it was this time) so we left her out of the picture. They later tried to sell me the pictures for $30. I politely declined, there weren’t even any characters in it for heaven’s sake!

For the second time we were seated in the little room off to the side of the buffet. Doesn’t matter to us, and it’s actually kind of quieter in there! We had a great view of the Castle—

Our waitress was very prompt at bringing drinks and refills which was appreciated as in the heat, we drank a lot of (non-caffinated) pop that night. She informed us Mickey and friends were still getting some things ready in the kitchen so now would be a good time to get something to eat. We headed to the buffet and were able to get everyone at least one plate for everyone when the first characters headed out. It wasn’t long before they made it to our table. First was Pluto, Goofy, & Donald. Now we have discovered that despite Minnie's intense love for Mickey, on TV, she does not like him in real life. LOVES the Princesses….hates all the other characters. I assume it’s their size. She is cautiously watching the characters as they approach to prevent a possible surprise attack on her! Aurora is so excited she can hardly contain herself and eat. There character interaction is good. They are very patient with trying to get Minnie to warm up to them…although she’d have none of it. Pluto was especially a hoot. A few pictures…
Love this face-

Plutos trying hard

Donald

We then had a break and were able to refill our plates. I took some pictures of our plates, but not the buffet itself. Sorry. I especially love Minnie’s second plate here…seems fitting seeing as a mouse is the cook, right? On the way to the Contemporary Minnie continually told us “I want to eat cheese”. And she did. Mac & Cheese and the shredded cheese was all she ate (minus dessert.)

For my meal I am ashamed to say, I ate no protein. There was always a line for the meat and by the time I got there I had no room on my plate anyway! I had a ton of the parmasean mashed potatoes. So good, as always. I also really liked (ok, loved) their potato salad, and had some lettuce salad and a couple pasta salads. The pasta salads weren’t really my thing, although I normally love pasta. Too much sauce that tasted much too strong for me. I also tried the alfredo pasta dish. Not a fan! I couldn’t eat it. They also had what looked to be cheesy potatoes with bacon in them. They, too, tasted horrible. Couldn’t eat them either. I think it was the bacon taste that was off. Truth be told, I ate the most of the kids mac & cheese. It actually tasted really good, and hey, it’s Mickey shaped!!! My second plate consisted of the potato salad, the parm. potatoes and mac & cheese. Minnie also consumed an extremely large amount of the mac & cheese, so it gets a thumbs up from us.

Pirate had the meats (a beef and a pork). He stated they were good but not outstanding. He also had some of the things I did (pasta alfredo) but managed to eat his. I think he’d tell you the food was fine, not much outstanding. They had a salmon on the buffet that looked good, if you liked salmon. (Neither of us do.)

My Salad plate- (Potato salad, lettuce, & pasta salad

My meal plate- Mac & cheese, parm potatoes, alfredo pasta, potatoes with bacon

Aurora's salad & meal plate- kids pizza & nuggest and lettuce salad

Pirates plates- alfredo pasta, the beef from carving station, parm potatoes with gravy, those cheesy potatoes with bacon (or ham?), ravioli?

Minnie's Cheese Plate

About the time we can see Mickey & Minnie approaching they do the Celebration song & napkin twirling. Aurora is not brought out a cupcake. Now I don’t really care as she was being cranky, refused to wear her birthday button, and with the buffet we really didn’t need another cupcake. She didn’t notice. The girls waved the napkins but were more preoccupied with watching Mickey.

About now Mickey & Minnie come by. By the time they get here my Minnie is actually interacting with them and gives them a high 5. And allows them to get close enough for a picture. We decided this was a major breakthrough! They don’t spend quite as much time with us as the previous 3, but it was still good interaction and we got some good pictures.

After they left we headed to the dessert buffet. Of course the girls are taken with the make-your-own sundaes. Aurora gets her own ice cream and puts, I believe, every possible topping on it. I tried to take a picture but it doesn’t do justice to what a mess that was! I got Minnie & I ice cream as well, but I swear by the time I get to the table, it’s already almost melted. Minnie is making a huge mess and really just wanted the candy on top of the now-melted ice cream mess. So I take her back and just get her a bowl of candy…. Much less mess and she’s happy! Aurora is continuing to eat the monstrosity. The desserts here were pretty good. The cheesecake was excellent…very smooth, light, and flavorful. I also loved the Mickey ears. Pirate did not and gave me his after the first bite. The chocolate was a bit more towards the dark chocolate side, which he doesn’t like. I also had a rice crispy bar which wasn’t the best, but I ate it. I wanted more cheesecake but after all the Mickey ears, I’m stuffed. Then our waitress apologizes for missing Aurora’s birthday and gives us 2 cupcakes, each packaged in a cup. The girls are so excited. Let me tell you, we carried them on the monorail, then onto a standing room only bus where a lady holds them for us, then they stay in our room basically untouched. But we are not allowed to throw them away. After we check out on our last day, they have been shaken, maimed, and are stale. We are made to pack them in our backpack to take to the park and manage to finally throw them behind the girls back outside of Epcot! So sorry, no reviews of the CM cupcakes!

My dessert plate- Cheesecake, rice crispy & Mickey ears

Aurora's ice cream, couldn't get a picture to turn out well but you get the idea.

In the end, we will always go back to Chef Mickey’s. At least as long as we have kids who want to meet Mickey. No, the food isn’t outstanding, but it’s good and fine and we always find at least one or two things we really like. The character interaction is good and it’s just a fun meal for us. We both left VERY full.

Total cost- $81.74. Used 3 table service credits.

We spent the next morning at Hollywood Studios. Since we were there for EMH we were getting really hungry about 10. We stopped at Starring Rolls for a snack. I really wanted one of the sandwiches from there but DH said NO to letting me eat lunch that early. So we got snacks instead. DH got a white chocolate cupcake, I got an Éclair, and Aurora picked out a chocolate chocolate chip muffin. I did grab a picture. Aurora also got a large Chocolate milk.

Picture somehow missed getting uploaded so I'll have to add that later tonight. Sorry!

The food here was awesome. I had my éclair and thought it was really good. And then I tried Pirates cupcake and it was SO good. The frosting on it was amazing. Pirate stated he hadn’t ever tasted frosting that was so good. Pirate also tried Aurora’s muffin and noted it tasted more like a cupcake than a muffin. Can you say CHOCOLATE! And she drank choc. milk with it! Minnie most like nawing on the green sugar Mickey balloon that came on top of the cupcake. By the time we finished these 3 snacks between the 4 of us, we were full. There was a lot of sharing as at one point I stole what was left of the cupcake and gave Pirate my éclair. We would for sure return here again, I still want to try the sandwiches which looked SO good.

Since we had the snack we ate a late lunch back at Pop. Still hungry for a sandwich I got the Tuna which came with a side of pasta salad and tie-dye cheesecake for dessert. DH got a meatball sub which came with a salad for a side and choose a regular cheesecake for dessert. Aurora wanted pizza and got grapes and an applesauce with a fruit drink box.

The tuna was ok, but I found myself wishing I tried the ham on ciabatta instead. I did not care for the bread the tuna came on, it was really thick and kind of dry. I threw away all the extra bread on the ends. The tuna itself was good. The pasta salad it came with was not. I could only eat a few bites, the flavor was not good and even the pasta itself had a very weird texture. The tie-dye cheesecake was so good. It has red velvet cake on the bottom and I loved it. Pirate liked my dessert much more than his sad little cheesecake. I tried both and the tie-dye was better! I did end up getting the tie-dye again as a snack credit later in the trip.

Pirate liked his meatball sandwich and declared it good. I think it was even served on- gasp- white bread! Again, the side was BAD. Besides being totally drenched in dressing, it was warm like it’d been in a warmer. Sorry, but I can’t stand to eat warm lettuce, disgusting. His salad was worse than mine. His little cheesecake was fine (evidently the cheesecake missed the pictures) but paled in comparison to the awesomeness of the tie-dye.

The kids meal was fine. Same as anywhere else. I’m starting to not see the point of reporting on kids meals as they are the exact same thing wherever you go! Since we had a refillable mug we got an extra drink to take back to the room for later.

 

[shruley]

Supper tonight was Whispering Canyon Café. We were excited for our first trip to the WL. The girls loved the boat ride to get there. We love the themeing of this resort and would both love to stay here one trip.

After looking around (early again) DH checked in.

He asked for a fun waiter when he checked in. They told him “They’re all fun”. He said you’d think that at the ‘50’s, too, wouldn’t you. They told him “Honey, you’re at the Wilderness Lodge now.” J And they were right we loved our waitress. She wasn’t over the top but she was lots of fun. We were seated right at 5 or maybe a little before. The girls had just started to play with the Lincoln logs when we were called to our table.

Pirate and I both ordered the skillet. Aurora ordered a kids cheeseburger. We were offered shakes as drinks on the dining plan. All the food was starting to catch up to me and I just didn’t think I could eat a shake and a dessert, so I stuck with a sprite. Pirate and Aurora had no trouble in that department however. Aurora ordered a vanilla shake and Pirate ordered an orange shake. Sheriff's Shakes - Chocolate, Vanilla or Strawberry All-You-Care-to-Enjoy $5.99 They had other flavors, too, I remember orange, cotton candy and I think bubble gum? I must not have gotten a picture of Pirate's shake, but you can see Aurora's in this picture, hers came in a normal kids cup. They both finished them but neither asked for refills.

For supper both Pirate and I got the skillet.

Canyon Skillet, 26.99 per person- Smoked Pork Ribs, Pulled Pork, Oven-roasted Chicken, Beef Brisket, Mashed Potatoes, Cowboy Beans, and Corn on the Cob Mixed Greens Salad with Apple Vinaigrette, Coleslaw, and Fresh-baked Cornbread

Aurora got a fruit cup, cheeseburger and fries, and cookies for dessert. As you probably saw in the picture, Aurora's fruit was mostly melon with a couple grapes thrown in. Melon is not their favorite fruit so not much was eaten. She ate about 1/2h her cheeseburger. I didn't try it but it looked fine.

For the skillet, we started with the salad and cornbread. The salad came in an Apple Vinnegrette dressing. It was good but way to much dressing on it. You can see the dressing pooling in the picture, it was literally swimming in a dressing bath. The dressing was something different and had a light and sweet taste. Pirate loved the corn bread. I'm not a huge fan of cornbread in general but it was good--for cornbread. It was nice and light which was good.

Cornbread shot didn't turn out so good.

Next they brought out the skillet-- I do believe everything in the skillet had a good coating of butter on it. You can see the butter on the corn on the picture of my plate. Now, neither of us like ribs (too fatty) but we enjoyed everything else on the skillet. It was all cooked well. The seasoning was very good, but a little different. Spicy but not hot, if that makes sense. I don't eat a lot of BBQ but still enjoyed it. I mostly had the pulled pork, which was excellent. The chicken was ok but seemed like something I could eat anywhere. At the end of my meal Pirate asked how I liked the beef brisket and I went "what?" Evidently there was beef hidden under that jumble of food. I ended up eating 2 pieces of that despite being full, it was very good! I, of course, never met a Disney potato I didn't like and these were no exception. I really didn't care for the sauce on the beans (and I love baked beans) but Pirate asked for seconds of those, he loved them, so maybe it was just me? Pirate ate a LOT. The rest of us were done and he was STILL eating. He seemed to love everything, minus the ribs.

My plate-

For dessert we were full but couldn't turn it down so....

I chose the Kahlúa-flavored Chocolate Cake - with Chocolate Mousse Filling and Fudge Icing $7.99 since I had cheesecake for lunch. It was good, VERY rich. Didn't taste much Kahlua flavor though.

Pirate choose Deep-Dish Bourbon Pecan Pie - with Chocolate Sauce $7.49. He thought it was fabulous. Evidently he likes a good Pecan Pie, I had no idea. Sorry it was mostly eaten when I got a picture.

We took Aurora's cookies to go as she got a birthday cake AND ice cream for dessert. This was one of the better "free" desserts she got. She loves anything with ice cream on it.

The waitresses were funny, they came over and said they were going to sing a VERY special birthday song to her backwards....so they turned around and sang it "facing" backwards. Other highlights were doing the hokey pokey
and the pony race (Aurora was winning so took an extra lap for good measure) and of course, ketchup. (I seem to be missing a few pictures again. There may be more tonight.)

We loved our meal here and will absolutely return. Pirate was quite happy and felt this made up for the poor waiter at Prime Time. Food was all very good and we left very full. Service was very good (and fun!) and we loved the WL. The girls loved the boatride there, the lincoln logs. Next time I just think I need to descretely ask the waitress to tell Pirate they're out of beans!

Total cost- $96.13. Used 3 TS credits.

Casey’s Corner

Today was Aurora’s actual birthday! And I was a horrible, mean mom who did not let her pick out what she wanted to eat for lunch on her birthday. She wanted pizza, again. I couldn’t eat Disney pizza. It was HOT again today and I just couldn’t stomach something that didn’t sound good. So I dragged her to Casey’s Corner for lunch. She was pouting in line and said all she wanted to eat was a brownie. Fine. Pirate ordered while the girls and I went to score an inside place to sit. (HOT today, remember.) Casey’s really doesn’t have indoor seating, but there’s a little area off the restaurant with about 3 small tables and 2 sets of “bleachers” about 4 or 5 steps high that you can sit on. All the tables were taken but there were some openings on the “bleachers” in front of a big TV screen playing some black and white clips. Aurora loved the bleachers and the TV. I try to convince her this isn’t such a bad place after all. She frowns at me more. No kids menu here, so the girls get an adult meal of corn dog nuggets, fries, cracker jacks and chocolate milk. Pirate and I both get a hot dog with fries and brownies. We made good use of the condiment bar…onions, a couple kinds of relish, and melted cheese in addition to the usual. (Hint: double up the cup for the cheese, it’s hot when it comes out!) The hot dogs were good…probably a typical hot dog, but it was just what we were wanting that day, so it tasted really good. The buns didn't bother us, we only eat wheat at home, so... The girls had a really good amount of corn dog nuggets, which we had to cut in half so Minnie could eat the hot dogs out of them. Aurora ate a few fries and picked at the nuggets but was still pretty stubborn. I opened a brownie for her which she had been wanting, but she still didn’t eat much of the brownie, either. She maybe wasn’t hungry in the heat. At this point, I’m really tiring of Disney fries. Usually if you’re eating out a lot, you at least get different kind of fries (McDonalds fries taste different than Wendy’s you know.) But everywhere in Disney they’re exactly the same and I’m beginning to loathe them. The cheese sauce, however, I loved, so they made the fries more palatable. (I mean, you can’t just stick your finger in the cheese and eat it…it’s hot!) We went through a lot of cheese sauce! The girls may have been tiring of fries as well, they continued to mix ketchup, mustard, and cheese in different ways while eating them.

By the time we were finished, we were full and all of our desserts came home with us. I ate the cracker jacks the next morning at Epcot for a snack and actually had the brownies while back at home at work. At the park, I was not a fan of the brownies. They tasted much better once I had gotten home, but still not the greatest brownies ever. They were fresh and chocolaty but just had an off taste to them that’s hard to describe. And again, since the girls got an adult meal they got a huge chocolate milk. Pirate and I shared an enormous drink and took my water to go.

Condiments.... MMMMMM, cheeeeeseeeee.

Akershus

This was Aurora’s birthday dinner. She was SO excited for this meal. We checked in early and were seated after about 10 minutes of waiting. Worst part was it was HOT outside and no good place to wait to be called…not even shade! Once called we went to stand in a line to get our picture taken with Belle. Fortunately it moved pretty quickly. Belle was nice enough, but I didn’t like where this picture was….she was in this little dungeon of white painted bricks with a blue curtain hung behind her. Didn’t make for the nicest backdrop.

(No, Minnie is not upset, that is her attempt at smiling.)

We were seated over to the side, so to us it was kind of like eating in a rustic cottage, not at all like a Castle. May have been better if you were in the main dining room. Aurora didn’t notice, however. We were right by the door to where the princesses came in and out so Aurora loved that they would all walk by her again and wave and wink at her and stuff. This meal had a “cold table” and then you chose an entrée and got a plate of dessert served family style. We also ordered Aurora a mini-surprise cake.

Our service here was pretty good. Our server noticed our Minnie had the scar from her open-hearts. He told us he was born with a Congenital Heart Defect as well and shared his story. He was very attentive to us, especially Minnie. There were some long waits at times (ordering and dessert), yet other things were spot on. I think it’s that he had a lot of tables that were all seated at the same time, and one table had like 12 people, not for his lack of trying. We ordered drinks…pop for Pirate and I. Since it was Aurora’s birthday we splurged on the Pirate's Punch--
Minute Maid Light Raspberry Lemonade served in a souvenir Fairy or Cars cup with a glowing Tinker Bell or Lightning MCQueen Clip-on Light.

Normally we would never spend that much $$$ for these, but it was her birthday so what the heck. We then tried the cold bar. We were not offered anything for Minnie, other than that she could eat off the cold bar or we could order her a meal (at $20 we passed!) The cold bar first had some lettuce with a few dressings and some rolls and butter. We then moved to one that had some salads, cold meat and cheese. I tried what I think was potato salad, as well as some cheese and salami. The potato salad wasn’t the best, and I think part of it was it was lukewarm…I don’t think it was supposed to be. The cheese was all very good and Minnie loved the salami.

It was all she wanted I think she ate about 20 slices. They also had some deli meats. The cheeses were really good. We weren’t very adventurous today. They also had a bar with raw fish…I think they had herring, salmon, etc. No one in our family likes any of that so I barely gave it a glance as I headed back to my table. I didn't get pictures of the salad plates except the girls...whoops!

For Pirates entrée he got Traditional Kjottkake- Ground beef and pork patty served with garlic mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables and Lingonberry sauce. (Partially eaten, sorry)

He seemed to think it was ok. Good but nothing to write home about. Similar to meatballs but the gravy on it was a bit odd. I wasn’t too fond of it. I had the Grilled Pork Chop with Potato Gratin, Apple-Raisin Chutney, and Demi-glace.

Now, I have a thing about warm fruit in general and even more so mixing said warm fruit with my meat, so the “chutney” was quickly scrapped off. Pirate ate my leftovers, though, and really liked the Chutney. I really enjoyed the pork dish, even though I’m not a huge pork fan. It was cooked well, served hot, and I loved the glaze it was served with. Between the glaze and the potatoes (so good as well) it was actually a really good dish. It was nice to have something other than mashed potatoes at Disney and these didn’t disappoint. I just couldn’t finish it all, though, so Pirate helped me out. After a bit of a wait Mats brought out dessert. Royal Dessert Plate- Sweet and Savory Chocolate Mousse, Traditional Rice Cream topped with Strawberry Sauce, School Bread – A Norwegian Specialty Baked Sweet Dough filled with Pastry Cream topped with Toasted Coconut.

Dessert was a hit with us. I LOVED the chocolate mousse. It looks like a cake when served but the inside was filled with the most amazing mousse. I was in absolute heaven. Pirate didn’t like it. Yet still had to take a second HUGE bite, just to “make sure” he didn’t like it! The school bread was good. We both liked it, but Pirate has a thing about eating absolutely NO coconut, so he passed on most of this. So he was left with the Rice Crème. He liked it, I thought it was ok but a bit lacking in flavor. We were unable to finish the school bread, I was just too darn full. The girls didn’t eat any of the desserts, they ate Aurora’s birthday cake that was brought out.

It was a standard Sara Lee frozen white cake on the bottom topped with an overly-generous portion of frosting. I actually think the frosting was about as thick as the cake itself was. The cake served it’s intended purpose which was to thrill Aurora that she got an actual cake at Disney World. She also loved the treasure chest it came in and the mirror and flag all made their way home with us and are on her dresser. For the price it was worth her face. I only wish some Princesses would have been there to sing Happy Birthday, but oh well. It was even more worth the money when I saw the cupcakes they were giving out. I think it had to be the saddest birthday treats we saw given out the whole week…they were small.

As for the non-food portion, we saw Belle for the picture, then Snow White, Aurora, Cinderella and Ariel all came to the table. Aurora goes “I can’t believe all these princesses came to my birthday party!” Yup, it’s all for her. The best was Ariel, she saw Aurora in her Ariel costume and ran up to her and starts talking a mile a minute “Oh my gosh, look at you, are you a real live mermaid? Did you swim here all the way from Atlantica?” She was just an absolute hoot.

The princess interaction was good. Honestly, our food here was just as good as the food in the Castle was, and we enjoyed getting to see so many Princesses. Unless I had someone who had to eat in the Castle, this is a much cheaper option than the 2 TS credits for the Castle. We would definitely do this again as long as we have girls who want to see the Princesses. After that, there is better food to be had elsewhere, I would not eat here just for the food! (except to maybe get the dessert plate!)

Total cost- $92 for meal. Paid OOP for drinks and cake- $13 for drinks, $22.97 for the cake. Used 3 TS credits.

I realized I forgot to say Aurora got a pizza for her entree. Yuck It was disgusting pizza.

When she took a bite of 1 half, the entire cheese just lifted off the top in one gigantic hard half moon. I honestly have to say it was worse than frozen pizza. She only ate a little of it, luciky she had the bread and lettuce from the salad bar. And the cake, of course.

 

[shruley]

Well, that was all our meals. We had some snacks and ate lunch at the airport the next day. We did also do Wishes dessert party of which I have a couple pictures and I'm going to try to add our snacks so I can do a grand total and see how we came out.

About mid-trip we were getting very concerned as we hadn't used many snack credits as we were usually full from dessert. But there were other times (like waiting fo Spectro) where we used 4 at one time, so it balanced out. We only spent 1 the last day that ended up going home with us, on a chocolate muffin from Sunshine Seasons. While we didn't need snacks, it was very nice to have them and not feel so bad paying OOP for a drink or treats for the girls while entertaining Minnie while sister was on a "big ride" or keeping them entertained while waiting for the parade. And ice cream was the only way I made it through sitting on the HOT pavement watching the HMS show. Who in the world thought that was a good idea? I am very upset though that I never got an ice cream sandwich on Main Street. Obviously I need to go back!

 

[Smiling Cheshire Cat]

Thanks for sharing your dining experiences and your girls are just adorable.

We felt the same way about CRT our last trip, rushed and a little let down. We are trying breakfast next trip for the first time and hoping for better results.

 

[shruley]

We've done breakfast at CRT before and it was rushed then, too. It was fine, enough time to see all the princesses, but same kind of service. As I said it worked well for us because my 2 girls were still more than ready to go when we were done...but they should market it for what it really is!

 

[mimi'sgirl]

Thank you I really enjoyed reading your review. I may have missed it but did your daughter get her HSM blanket? Just curious cause my DD(4) never lets me forget about things like that. LOL

 

[MousekaMaddi]

thx for sharing!
