 “Making Magic One Vacation at a Time…”

Akershus

August 1, 2012

Do you have a fan of Princesses in your family?  Then, let me suggest Akershus Royal Banquet Hall, located in the country of Norway portion of the Epcot theme park at Walt Disney World.  This character meal serves breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Epcot theme park

The Akershus meal features an impressive selection of Norwegian items served both as a cold buffet and as hot table service offerings.  For breakfast, American favorites are brought to the table and are served family style. For lunch and dinner, hot items are served a la carte.  The food is amazing!  For our family, we enjoy breakfast the most: the cold buffet and the warm breakfast items are the perfect match.  It is a Disney “must do” on each of our trips!

The décor of this location is beautiful.  High ceilings and lovely archways add to the ambiance of the restaurant.  Match that with the lovely Disney princesses that walk around to visit each table and this is an experience you won’t want to miss.  (The princesses at Akershus can change each visit, and you may see Ariel, Belle, Aurora, Snow White, and Cinderella as well as other leading ladies.)  The location is perfect place to get your pictures taken with your favorite Disney princesses and add to your autograph book.

Hollywood Studios Sci Fi Dine In Theater at Disney

May 18, 2012

Like any good restaurant, I fell in love at first bite. The Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater, located not far from Muppet Vision 3D, in Hollywood Studios, is a unique restaurant serving up American style faire where you’re transported back in time to when it was all the rage to drive up (in your snazzy convertible, of course) and watch movies, cartoons, and even commercials while you dine with your friends, family, or a cute date. The 50s Prime Time Café (also located in Hollywood Studios) might be distinctly 50s, but if you don’t want to be scolded anytime you put your elbows on the table, maybe this is the better place for you.

Dining at Disney

My first experience at the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater at Disney was pure luck – my husband and I had gone to Walt Disney World as a last minute vacation and had no reservations, so we just walked up, completely oblivious to what the place was like, asked if there were any tables available, and lucky for us, there would be in about a half hour. Sweet! This isn’t so uncommon for groups of 2, though I would always recommend asking your travel agent to get an Advanced Dining Reservation for you, because the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater has some of the most distinctive “tables” I’ve ever seen – they’re cars! Not real cars, but they are clearly inspired by the kind of convertibles you might see in the 1950s, with 2 to a row and 3 rows in a car. Each row gets a bar top with just enough space to be cozy with, but the waitresses will remind you – no smooching! The waiters and waitresses are dressed for the time period, too. Some waitresses are even on roller blades, which is a really nice touch. If you have a party larger than 6, they do have more “open” cars where you sit along an extended table within a car, and they also have UFO tables scattered across the back if you’d rather sit at a normal dining setting. You can’t beat the atmosphere of the place – the lights are at a minimal, the theatre projects some pretty amusing clips from movies of that era, and you can even see a few clips of Uncle Walt telling us about his plans for the future. It really just makes it that much more special.
