Which two character breakfast?

[pinkxray]

I have Akershus, Ohana, Crystal Palace, Tuskerhouse, and Chef Mickey all for breakfast. Ohana is a definite since DD loves Lilo and Stitch but would like to narrow it down to maybe 2 others. Akershus, CP, Tuskerhouse are all at 8:05 on the day that we will be at the park they are in. CM is 7:50 on what will be our waterpark day. My DD has requested CM b/c that is the one they always show on TV programs about Disney but won't really know the difference between that and Tuskerhouse.
Thanks!

I should also mention we are doing CRT for dinner so we will see the princesses there. I have heard that Akershus is better for interaction though.

If your DD loves Lilo & Stitch you are going to have a ball at Ohana's. I would pick CP or tuskerhouse because you have CRT. I have not eaten at either for breakfast but they both get great reviews.

with Tusker House and Crystal Palace also. CP gives you some different characters (Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet) and I think the food is better. Tusker House focuses a little more on Donald and I think the food there is better than CM also. (though not as good as CP in my opinion.)

The biggest benefit to CM is that you see so many of the characters in one meal. For us it's big because my daughter, for some reason, really likes Pluto.

The two characters you will miss by not going to CM will be Minnie Mouse and Pluto. Minnie is also at Cape May which is not on your list.

I definitely recommend CP. The food is wonderful and the characters are great. It is beautiful inside and while usually pretty full there is plenty of dining space not overly crowded. Breakfast at CP is a must in my opinion; children should love it as long as they love Pooh characters! I go to CP everytime I am in Disney! Hope I was of help !

We LOVE Ohanas - also we LOVE STitch! definitely keep that - character interaction there is great!

Akershus.... no. since you'll already see the pricnesses at CRT, plus the other options offer more food and variety than Akershus.


Comes down to if you want Pooh characters, or Mickey and the gang.
If did Crystal Palace, then could find Mickey, etc, later in the parks to see them.

But I'd say Chef Mickey's or Tusker House. Either or. Tusker House has Daisy, so maybe that's a factor in deciding? and also... do you want to see them in their safari outfits... or prefer their regular outfits? Minnie is in her usual dress at Chef Mickeys -others have aprons/chef outfits on.

I would keep Crystal Palace & Chef Mickey's. Crystal Palace brkfst is very good (our favorite) - nice buffet selection featuring puffed french toast The character interaction is good with Pooh, Tigger, Piglet & Eyeore + every 1/2 hour or so there is a little parade for kids led by one of the characters around the restuarant. We also enjoy the bright/open atmosphere of Crystal Palace. With your 8:05 adr (hopefully it's on a non-emh day) you'll get to walk down a near empty main street which makes for good castle pics before your brkfst. Plus we always get an 8:05 adr at CP & our experience has been that we're done in time for rope drop which is another benefit.

Chef Mickey's brkfst is our 2nd favorite - very nice buffet selection, good character interaction with Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald & Pluto, and a very fun/upbeat atmosphere with occasional monorail passing by overhead.

And I'm glad you're going to Ohana - this our 3rd favorite - Stitch & Pluto are quite a riot! We love Crystal Palace, Chef Mickey's & Ohana brkfsts and do all 3 on our trips.
