| Caption- Abstract | Plaza Restaurant Main Street The Magic Kingdom Walt Disney World <i>I'll need to reach into the already processed cue here and there as I deal with the pile of photos from Tokyo (and New York…). </i> The Plaza Restaurant falls under the Sci-Fi Dine-In rules for me: 1) Don't have anything but low expectations 2) Don't order anything that's not a burger and a shake. The food is fine but nothing even remotely noteworthy. I don't know why the food at the Disneyland/Magic Kingdom parks is so unspectacular, especially when the food in the other theme parks, and especially the resort hotels and Epcot, can be so amazing. I mean, the meals one can have in the hotels or Epcot are basically nitpicky, foodie-level good. I'd throw certain dishes from California Grill, Narcoose's, Napa Rose, Yachtsman Steakhouse and even San Angel Inn up against some from Thomas Keller, Bobby Flay, Mark Collichio and the overrated Rick Bayless any day. But I've never had anything that even tries to be better than an okay meal in the Magic Kingdom/Disneyland. This is mostly fine as it's more about atmosphere at those parks, but Epcot and even Disney Sea show that quality food and theme parks can coexist happily*. I don't mean that as snobby as I love a good cheeseburger, shake, and box of popcorn, but it would be nice to get an amazing meal to go along with greatest theme park on the planet earth. I consider a trip to Walt Disney World to be as much about the culinary experience as anything because the food is so good… except at the Magic Kingdom. * The only exception is Club 33 in Disneyland, but that doesn't really count and honestly even that menu is very "safe" compared to what you can find in some of the high end restaurants in WDW. |
