Magic Kingdom 10:30am-11:30am

After the Little Mermaid we waited in line for the Be Our Guest Restaurant.  Totally worth the wait.  While I wasn't a fan of the food (it wasn't plain bread but rye) the ambiance was AMAZING!  They have all these gargoyles lining the walk up to the entrance.  I took a photo of one on my phone and texted it to my handsome Manfriend since I always say, "stupid gargoyle," when we drive past the one in our neighborhood.

In all honesty the wait in line for it to open and for us to be let in was due to the ordering of food process (only so many orders can be taken at once as with any restaurant).  There was more than enough seating though once inside.

When you first enter Beast's castle you are in a corridor with knights in armor that talk to one another in French.  The armor is very detailed and each is unique.  There are flag/banners and amazing details everywhere.  Kids have plenty to look at while waiting in this area (although it is not very long of a wait).

Once you exit the knight armor room you enter the ordering area.  You are given a rose that you scan at an enchanted book and begin to place your order.  There are several stations that you can place the order yourself along with stations where cast members take your order.  Once you've placed your order you take your rose with you to the dining area.  You can choose between the 3 rooms.  They are:

 The forbidden West Wing, where the enchanted rose is.  This room is very dark and quite noisy as well as significantly smaller than the other two rooms.  The chairs in all the rooms are nice and comfy.  All the details are amazing.

This is the grand Ballroom.  The ceiling has a gorgeous mural and chandeliers.  The large floor to ceiling windows have snow falling in the background.  This is the largest of the 3 rooms available to dine in.   We choose to eat in the 3rd room, that had a large music box of Belle and Beast.

There were paintings of different scenes from the movie on the wall as well as tapestries.  The floors had beautiful tile work as well.  You can see in the picture with the rose tiles the carts that are wheeled around by the cast members.  They bring the food right to your table... and you seat yourself!  MAGIC!!!  All the people ordering their food, getting their drinks at the beverage station and silverware and they bring the food directly to your table.  Must have something to do with the rose they give you and a sensor, but still it is super cool.

My mom had a sandwich that was ham and cheese with a soda.  I had a kid sandwich with peach applesauce and sweet potato fries and chocolate milk.  We both ordered a cupcake/dessert (after all, this is France...).  Loved my chocolate raspberry cupcake.  Mom had a cream puff.  Yum, yum.  Lunch wold have been 100 times better for me if it wasn't rye bread (seriously, I understand Disney is trying to be healthier but give a kid a choice of bread).

The bathroom was beautiful (don't worry, we didn't take pictures in there).  This beautiful mosaic was on the wall outside the bathroom in a small waiting area before the knights.  All the details were beautiful and although it wasn't our style of food (um, parade and a hot dog to share please) we enjoyed the ambiance.  A quiet away place from the sun to re-charge and get ready for the rest of our busy day. It's still not even noon!
