Our first goody of the trip was a turkey leg at the MK!!! I am including this as a restaurant review because we actually planned to do this for lunch (it was on our itinerary). For 4.69 we got this huge turkey leg. All three of us shared and it was enough. Delicious and well worth the $. We found a shady spot to sit down and eat. Rating:A
Dinner, Wed, Nov 26th- Whispering Canyon-
Delicious food and big portions. DH and I shared the meatloaf and DS had chicken legs. It was plenty and service was good. The waiter threws straws at our son, scolded the boy at the next able (all in fun) and DS really enjoyed the pony races. It wasn't too crowded, since our PS was at 5pm. Would definitely return! Rating:A
Thanksgiving dinner, Thurs. Nov 27th- Chef Mickey's-
We expected a long wait, the place to be packed, lots of noise and the buffet to be crowded. Instead, we got a table five minutes after we checked in, it was not at all crowded (about 6pm), avg noise for any restaurant, and the buffet line was non existent! The characters seemed a little hurried, but not too bad. teh food was pretty good. Again, all the raving that goes on over the mashed potatoes- I just expected more. Did not like the feel of the resort at all. It did look just like an airport. I don't know that I'd come back here just because there are just so many other good character meals at the parks.

Lunch, Fri, Nov 28th-Sci-Fi Dine In
Our PS was for 11:55 and we did have quite a wait, even though MGM wasn't that crowded. The restaurant is very dark inside. You might want to bring a pen light to read your menu, but it's a drive-in, so it's supposed to be dark! Dh and I split the reuben, DS had a corn dog, and mom and her DH split the penne pasta. All the food was yummy, but HUGE portions, so I recommend sharing and if you are still hungry get an appetizer or dessert .
May come back, but I prefer the Brown Derby or H&V to this one. Rating: B-
dinner, Fri, Nov 28th,Teppanyaki-
checked in and had a pretty long wait, but it was worth it!!!!! Our chef was magnificent. He did so many wonderful tricks. Our son laughed so hard that he fell out of his chair!!! food was scrumptious. Got lots of great pictures. The chef even took a picture with our son where he put the chef's hat on him and let him hold the salt/pepper shakers. This place was so much fun!!!
Best meal of the trip:A++
