Do yourself a favor, get out of chef Mickeys and switch to Garden Grill. Unless I was there on an off day, I HATED IT. It was horrible food and the characters spent very little time with you. Garden Grill is the best character interaction. They spend so much time with you. I have video of them singing and dancing in the aisle with my kids on multiple occasions. We go there EVERY trip. Food is much better too. The only one worse than Chef Mickey was Crystal Palace. We barely had any time with the characters there. Those places just seem too big.
If we want to turn the pedantic up to 11, Buffet/family style is technically correct.
Before they discontinued breakfast shortly after 9/11, it was the best breakfast on property. The scrambled eggs were incredible (hard to describe the flavor--you will just have to take my word for it). The honey ham was delicious and the cinammon rolls were HUGE. Hopefully they bring back the old menu and recipes.
How about figment?
That's odd. But, it's new, so I guess there will be some glitches!
They accept the dining plan.
Why? Are they bringing back the overalls for the chipmunks?
Exactly! Why can't I eat there with my wife without paying exorbitant prices for character greetings that we don't want and only having "family style" dining as an option? Why can't I order off of a menu? These character meals are out of control. I understand they need to have some, but it's just way too much. I wish they offered at least one mealtime at the Castle (Cinderella's) without characters. It really makes it seem more and more like they don't care about adults without kids. That was what made Disney different in the beginning from other parks, but it's becoming less and less prevalent.
