Excerpts...

Akershus offers a terrific alternative to the extremely hard-to-get advance dining reservation for Cinderella’s Royal Table. A mainstay of World Showcase’s Norway Pavilion, the grand restaurant offers old world Scandinavian charm and character dining encounters with a cast of Disney Princesses.

That place was AWESOME before it became all princesses all the time.  When they announced it was going to become a Princess meal, I made a point to eat there several times and told the manager EVERY time, that I would not be back once they added the princesses.

That's not saying much. Shoney's is better than CRT.

I'm not sure I should publicly admit this, but we used to love Shoney's! The strawberry pie was great I think the thing was we used to stop at them when driving to FL so it was special and then they build one up here about 10 mins away. So going there was like a little vacation reminder. Not so surprisingly, they closed and Friendly's is now there.

A new review of lunch at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall from the Disney Food Blog...

 

Review: Lunch at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall (Including Testing of New Service Style)

August 30, 2015

Excerpts...

 

 

We learned that Akershus — best known as being home to the Princess Storybook Dining character meal — had undergone a test alteration of its own. Typically featuring a cold buffet (Norwegian Koldtbord) along with hot breakfast, lunch, or dinner entrees served at your table, a test run recently brought about a new service style to Akershus. While it remains an All-You-Care-to-Eat option, the cold buffet was closed and several of the previous options are now brought to the table and served family style as part of a trial run at this popular restaurant.

 

This test has since ended, but we were told that it’s now up to guest feedback as to whether it comes back permanently.

We took our daughter there back in November of 2012.  We had breakfast and loved it.  Food was a better than the standard buffet food and for us, the princesses were a huge it.  Very pricey...but a nice once in a lifetime event.  We took her to Cinderella's castle last year and while I really liked the look of the (inside) of the castle...  we actually preferred the experience at Akershus over the castle.

The food looks like something my dogs hacked up. I can believe they have a kids menu there. Salmon cakes. Oh yeah, every kid in America is begging for that one.
