I just came on here to see why Kona was so popular for breakfast! I was shocked that I couldn't make ADR's for our departure morning when my window opened this morning! Glad I found this thread.
Kona is so popular because (imho) it has the best non buffet breakfast on the planet, let alone Disney. Not cheap, mind you, but oh so good!
My 3 favs are Tonga toast (bears no resemblance to toast as we know it), Pineapple Macadamia pancakes, and the fruit platter with banana bread. (The fruit platter alone would feed 5 people!) When we go, we all order something different and share, it's the Democratic thing to do!
And, I forgot to add, fabulous Hawaiian pressed coffee! Sooooo good, I'm wanting some right now!
Omygoodness, I forgot to add, the macadamia nuts butter is to die for, in fact when I go to heaven, please make sure I am comfortably sitting at Kona with a slice of that banana bread and a huge spread of macadamia nut butter on it. Coffee with cream and you will know I will die fat and happy!
