[sandie]

Hi, I know it will seem like we ate a lot of food but it was FREE!!!!!!! plus we didn't eat it all.......... John was a Disney Child so did not get three course - we all had plenty to share with him. One critism I have is the blandness of the childrens meals it seemed like he live on chicken strips.

Notes: This was the only time I have ever been the only customer in a RFC. The food was nothing special - I think the Tonga Toast (French Toast) was made out of sponge cake not bread!

Notes:This meal was a mistake - but a good one. We had slept through two breakfast reservations so had some meals to make up. This restaurant uses two dining credits so was perfect. It was one of the top five meals of the trip. I would never have normally considered eating her - the menu seemed too posh for us.
