Walt Disney World Dining Review: Tusker House


 

One of the easier character dining experiences to get a reservation for is Tusker House in Animal Kingdom. It is located in the Africa section of Animal Kingdom and features Mickey Mouse and friends in their safari gear. It is a buffet and has a selection of African inspired foods. Now, don't let that scare you away. It is a buffet and it has plenty of options.

Characters came around quickly and the restaurant was not packed.

Basmati rice and curry, falalphel, tabouli salad, pita - I forgot to take a picture of the meat

A dessert selection that we shared---get the bread pudding!

Goofy was ready to go fishing!

Mickey was ready to hit Kilimanjaro Safari

Donald is my #1

Daisy rocks this safari outfit

I urge you to go to Tusker House and enjoy some time with Mickey and pals!

1900 Park Fare at The Grand Floridian Resort



1900 Park Fare is a character buffet restaurant at The Grand Floridian Resort at Walt Disney World Resort that features a wide variety of dishes. During the dinner service, you can meet Cinderella, Prince Charming, Lady Tremaine, Drizella and Anastasia.

We had one of the first available dinner reservations for the dinner seating and we had plenty of time to go through the buffet line one time before the characters started making their rounds. We went to the buffet a second time after we met a couple of characters. The characters took a break and Chris went to the dessert bar to get us a plate to share. The only thing we didn't enjoy from the buffet was the lemon tart.

You can take a look at the food here first....

A signature dish, the strawberry bisque!

Catfish, Butternut squash ravioli, mashed potatoes, creamy chicken, cheese tortellini, broccoli salad

Blue Glowtini

Salmon, Jasmine Rice, Prime Rib, Mongolian Beef, Catfish and Mashed Potatoes

Our shared dessert plate-gummy bears, rice crispy treat, brownie, cannoli, and a lemon tart
Rum Swirl
And we got to meet the characters too!

Prince Charming mostly talked about how lovely Cinderella looked
 
Cinderella wondered if Gus Gus had been nibbling off the buffet
 
Lady Tremaine was discussing the difficulties of living in the castle
 
Anastasia wondered if she had the prettiest dress
 
Drizella asked if I was happy with my prince.
1900 Park Fare is not to be missed if you are staying at The Grand Floridian or if you love Cinderella.

Character Meet and Greet: Belle (in the Yellow Dress)


You can meet Belle in 2 places in her yellow dress on a regular basis. The first place is in Magic Kingdom at Enchanted Tales with Belle. To get a photo, you need to participate in the show.  The second place is at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall in Epcot's Norway pavilion. This is a princess character dining experience and I suggest the breakfast option.
