Originally Posted By FerretAfros I agree with your assessment. I had the burger and chowder, and the food was generally regrettable.

I think their system for moving people through the dining room was remarkably efficient and fair, and is really a great way to do counter service dinner theater Isn't there also another dining room on the other side of the food service area, without views of the show? Given the lousy food, I wonder why anybody would opt to sit over there
Originally Posted By trekkeruss I honestly don't know anything about Duffy, other than that he became popular. When did that happen? Anyway, my one visit to TDS, he did not exist, and the show there was to honor a duck, not a bear. I have no idea if the food was horrible back then; I didn't eat there; I merely watched the show.

Yes, there is another dining room on the other side and I'm asking the same question as you are. trekkeruss: I am on the same page with you here. I did not know about Duffy until I visited Tokyo Disney one day and saw a lot of ladies, young and old, and some men carrying him. dagobert: Well there's the Salad-In-A-Cup and the fries.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros The plastic food outside restaurants is great! You feel kind of silly pulling the waitress out there, but it's a really easy way to pick what you want, and it always looks exactly like the real food. I'm surprised more places outside of Japan don't do it, since it's so easy for foreigners

It just doesn't seem like a concept with a wide appeal, but I guess it could make for a nice mid-afternoon break, if you're willing to spend that much money for it
