I've also never eaten at the Crystal Palace. I've been in there, but only to look at the building. Do you have to get a character meal or can you just get something off the menu or buffet?

But I think the Crystal Palace now is 100% character meal. Though I suppose you could go in for the buffet, and just not pay attention to the characters if you didn't want to.

Originally Posted By Spirit of 74 I was shocked, and pleasantly surprised, to see the fountain working in the spring. But in July, it was back to being inoperative. Maybe they should just make it a planter like they've done with many other fountains since they're too cheap to maintain them.
