I need opinions!
We want to do:
-A princess meal (preferably Akershus)
-A Mickey meal
-BoG lunch
Here’s my dilemma. I can’t decide on a Mickey meal. I miss the Liberty Tree character meal so much. It was our go-to. Here is background on why I can’t decide:
-Our favorite time for TS meals is lunch. I don’t like to do early resort breakfasts because then my kids are already a little tired when we arrive at the parks. I don’t like to do in-park breakfasts either because I like to take advantage of lower lines for the first couple hours. We do a light breakfast in our villa before heading out and then early lunch (around 11/11:30) is our prime TS time. Dinners we usually do QS just because I don’t know how much energy the kids will have left.
-I do not want to leave a park to go to a resort for an ADR. So, Cape May and Chef Mickey are out.
-H&V is not an option because we are skipping HS. TH is not an option because we don’t like the lunch buffet.
-Ohana is not an option because it’s breakfast.
-This leaves Garden Grill. Hooray, right? Well, no because we want to do Akershus for the princess meal again and we are only going to Epcot once (and don’t want both character meals on the same day.)
I see us having two options
1. Do CRT instead of Akershus even though we prefer Akershus. That way, we can do Garden Grill for our Mickey meal.
2. Book an early dinner at Chef Mickey’s on our arrival day. The kids will be tired from travel (leaving our house at 3am) but we get in early and aren’t doing a park that day. We did an early dinner at 1900PF on our arrival day in Sept. and they did great, but they both slept on the plane and we got into our villa early and they rested there. No guarantees on that this time. It’s also a risk if we get delayed, etc.
Please weigh in if you can think of anything else! I know, we are kind of set in our ways and have silly reasons for not doing certain meals. I just know what works best for our group of 10
I can’t believe I just wrote a post this long about not being able to decide on a Mickey meal. I just want my beloved Liberty Tree characters back, y’all!
