Tusker House for breakfast. Your thoughts.

Yeah that's what I was getting in my internet search as well. Not bad for all you get!
The rest of the time we are "cheap eaters" :blush:

I just told the boys tonight about our vacation. I showed them the vacation package. It took a minute for it to register when they looked at "The "X" family's Incredible vacation." LOL

We havent' been in a few years, but my husband and I had breakfast at Tusker House on our last trip and *loved* it. We especially enjoyed the Beef Bobotie Quiche, the sweet potato casserole, and the spiced corned beef hash with cornbread topping. The character interaction was decent, but I didn't find it to be particularly better or worse than say Chef Mickey's. I did like getting some time with Donald outside before going in.

This is our only character must do meal, we love it. The sweet plantains and rice, mmmmmm.

Also if you book early it gets you to the back of the park before most other park guests.

Tusker House is one of our must do breakfasts, along with Crystal Palace. Possibly the noise level is more than at CP but maybe less than Chef Mickey's? For some reason we are not a fan of the breakfast at CM. But every ten years or so we give it another try.

We've never missed a character at Tusker House. The handlers and servers have made sure guests know what's going on. The characters are dressed safari style and sure seem to enjoy themselves in this kind of setting. Kids are given simple musical instruments to play during the parade.

We like to get an ADR as close to 8 am as possible. Puts us out by Kilimanjaro Safaris about the time the park opens.

We really do love it and have been the last 4 years. We are skipping it this year, not because it isn't great, jut because we have made some other plans this trip.

The food it always plentiful and hot, options for some more adventurous eaters, and options for some of the pickier folks (like me!). The characters are fun, dressed in their safari gear, and we've always had great interaction. Of course, they do the parade for the little kids, with Goofy leading the parade the last few times we were there.

It's a great option, and you shouldn't be disappointed by the food offerings or characters. Have fun!

Love, love, love it. One of our favorites. We like to do it first thing in the morning, to get into the park early. You can't get out of the restaurant, until opening time, but you are already in the back of the park by the opening time. Big advantage for the most popular rides. The food is good, and the character rotation is great. Love the jungle juice.
