CHEF MICKEY'S BREAKFAST!
i lucked out with an ADR to chef mickey's for our farewell breakfast. we had such a great time at chef mickey's with rachel in april that i was so happy we got to go again. given, i was a bit apprehensive for our experience as my last dinner experience was absolutely terrible. fingers were crossed for breakfast!
after checking in, we went to get our picture taken with the chef mickey figure. the first picture was really bad & blurry. on our way out, we re-took the picture & it was in betterfocus this time.
we were actually seated in an area i've nver sat in before. it was the section located behind the dessert station. it ha some really cool nostalgic mickey pictures along the walls.
emme had her vanity set with her (of course!).
oh hai there mickey!
we were greeting promptly by our CM and it was off to the buffet we go.
emme's first plate.
blueberry yogurt (one of the things that emme survives on while at disney).
she loves her yogurt.
emme wanted me to take a picture of her biting mickey's ear off. she said, "mommy, get a picture of me biting mickey's ear". this is coming from a child who purposefully looks away from any camera i point at her (she's traumatized for sure as i've taken so many photos of her).
and there goes his ear.
she's very proud of herself & notice she's not looking at the camera.
emme doesn't eat waffles at home but she loves the mickey waffles. the batter is much fluffier that regular waffle batters and it's just so darn cute. it's perfect for dipping.
here is my first plate:
HELLO CARB FEST!
i was reunited with this:
CHEESY POTATOES!
these potatoes were just as good as they were in april. i actually had 3 servings from 3 different batches and they were all equally delicious. these aren't as good as akershus cheesy potatoes but come pretty close. these potatoes are divine. i love everything about them. so.so.good.
Smoked salmon w/ red onions & capers
i always love the smoke salmon at disney but this salmon was a little too cold. parts of it was still frozen.
as i was totally stuffing my face, emme had a friend visit.
donald using the dinglehopper in emme's ariel vanity set. so funny!
back to the food, here is my second plate:
the fruit was on there to try and balance out all the bad stuff on my plate. i also picked out the crispiest bacon i could find. chef mickey's also has tragically sad-limpy bacon.
the bacon was pretty crisp so it doesn't look AS tragic but it's pretty thin. i saw people with mounds of bacon on their plates. looking at those plates pass me by gave me high cholesterol.
we had another friend stop by for a visit:
goofy picked out the straightener to use.
and here is my third plate:
yes, more cheesy potatoes & italian sausage. i couldn't pass up the nacho cheese either. i just had to have it on my plate to dip the sausage into. the cheese blintz was located on the dessert portion of the buffet. the strawberry sauce was very very sweet. it wasn't for me. i'm more of a savory girl & i ate all my cheesy potatoes....again.
as we were finishing up, emme had some more friends stop by to say hello.
YAY PLUTO!
overall, we had another fantastic breakfast at chef mickey's. so far, breakfast is 2/2 whereas dinner was 1/2.
chef mickey's is a really fun place to eat as there is singing & dancing during your meal. the buffet was clean & always replenished. i also had another fantastic CM during this meal. he sometimes got busy but he did try his best and my coffee was never empty.
i really loved the cheesy potatoes and the potatoes alone are worth the visit. the characters also were really fun and had a lot of energy. emme had some great interactions with her friends.
chef mickey's also accepts TIW so that's another bonus. i valeted my car for FREE using the TIW card. i kept my car parked at the contemporary which was great because MK parking & taking the tram is a total pain. i will mention that they were actually checking ADR's at the security gate as parking was limited due to the holiday.
side note: i wish they served mimosas here. that would be perfect!
two thumbs up again from me & emme!!!
up next, farewell snacks at magic kingdom.
