Disney has just announced that Mickey and friends are returning to Chef Mickey’s on December 16th. Here are the details:
Mickey Mouse and his best pals are returning to breakfast at Chef Mickey’s restaurant in Disney’s Contemporary Resort on December 16, bringing some new items to the menu inspired by their favorite dishes.
Along with traditional breakfast favorites, you will be able to try the new Mickey’s “Celebration” Pancake, featuring whipped cream, celebration sprinkles, shimmering pixie dust and more.
For something a bit more savory, we’re adding a new “Loaded” Potato-Cheese Casserole topped with smoked bacon crumbles and chives.
Last but not least, Goofy’s Banana Bread French Toast will combine unique flavors of banana bread baked in zesty orange-scented French toast batter, topped with Espresso-mascarpone cream, toasted bananas and chocolate crumbles.
If you can’t decide on which new item to try, you’ll be able to taste all three as part of an all-you-care-to-eat family style feast with other traditional breakfast favorites.
When Mickey and friends return, the experience may look a little different than the last time you visited, but you can still expect to smile, wave and make unforgettable memories with some of your favorite characters as they parade through the restaurant in their chef’s best.
Reservations for Chef Mickey’s character breakfast will open on October 17, based on availability. In addition, Disney Resort hotel guests can make reservations up to 60 days in advance plus the length of their stay (up to 10 days).
We went to Chez Mickey our last day before heading home and frankly I have to say it was a big disappointment. We have enjoyed the character breakfasts there in the past and loved it, but with the food and the character experience was not worth the $42+ price tag each they asked for our family of hour especially since the characters do not pose with you so you take a photo of them from afar, and the food did not look like your photos at all. We enjoyed lunch at Crystal Palace and Dinner at Garden Grill much more, even though there were no characters at CP and at GG the characters were behind the booths which made it very difficult to see if you are sitting and eating.
