They are both buffet meals so the food is very similar. I like the 1900 better myself, but it could come down to what characters do you want to have dinner with? At Chef Mickeys it is Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Pluto. At 1900 it is Cinderella, Prince Charming, Evil Step mother and the 2 step sisters. These are characters you do not normally see.
Two Thumbs Up for 1900 Park Fare. My son and I went in April and we had so much fun. Not to mention the food was delicious. Prime Rib Roast that you could cut like butter and the dessert selections are yummy!
