I have not been disappointed by an evening there yet. I would highly recommend it. Have a great trip ! -Meg

Originally Posted By iamsally I am partial to the Minnie and Friends breakfast. I have heard so many mixed reviews; but we have been many, many times and found the food adequate-excellent.

I feel it is a good value for the money. Plus, it is in Disneyland which is important to me. I am sure you will have fun whatever you decide.

Potatoes, veggies, fresh carved meat, pasta dishes, peanut butter and jelly pizza (Goofy and Dale's favourite), corn on the cob, mac and cheese, pizza's, breaded shrimp and a huge number of deserts. This is only a small sampling that I can think of right now, there was so much more. Unfortunately I am really not that good at describing food. It was a bit expensive but, in my opinion, every bit worth it as we enjoy it so much.

Originally Posted By DismayingObservation Amen, bro. However, I have to say that I was very pleased with the food, show and service across the plaza at Ariel's Grotto.

Originally Posted By DismayingObservation I feel like such a schmuck...where is Goofy's Kitchen? I've heard of it, but I don't think I've ever seen it.

Originally Posted By DismayingObservation Ah, no wonder! That actually sounds like fun. Thanks for the tip; I may have to take advantage of it when LilliBelle and I get our new APs before the end of the year.

Originally Posted By ssturgeo We love 'em all. Lilo and Stitch is much more relaxed, more activities for the kids, and more individual character interaction...at least that has been our experience when going early in the morning. And, it is one of the few places you get to see Daisy Duck and have a photo op with her. We always do Minnie and Friends too, and have done Goofy's Kitchen several times. Sharon Next Trip Nov. 16-22
