We won't have park tickets. We aren't opposed to characters being there, but we don't need them either. If you had to pick one WDW resort breakfast, where would you have it?

Looking at the menus at allearnet though, I'd wanna try Fresh at the Dolphin, Garden Grove Cafe at the Swan, or the Yacht Club Galley at the resort of the same name (I'm a sucker for Crab Cake Benedict!)

I have not done Boma for breakfast yet, I would imagine it would be excellent though.
Originally Posted By Chelledun Hmm, I hadn't thought of O'Hana - I like that idea, as the Poly is my favorite resort. The only sad part would be that I'm allergic to pineapple . The menu at Fresh looks really great too, or Boma!

However your expericance may vary if you get a rushed or boring waiter/waitress. For what it's worth it'll be cheaper than a "character" breakfast too. $10.99 for an all you care to eat skillet that was very very yummy. (Plus drinks of course)

Originally Posted By trekkeruss I know it bothers some people, so let me point out that the name of the restaurant at the Poly is 'Ohana, which means family.
Originally Posted By seanyoda If I had to pick one WDW place for breakfast, it would be Boma at Animal Kingdom Lodge. It's the one meal that, no matter how long the visit, we always have when visiting WDW. There's a good mix of traditional American breakfast food along with African choices.
