Crystal Palace Has Availability For Holiday Dining!
Last week, we here at MickeyBlog reported that several restaurants would be reopening at Disney World just in time for the busy holiday season! Today we can confirm that the Crystal Palace at Disney’s Magic Kingdom is now showing availability for those looking for a place to enjoy a holiday meal!
Guests should not however that this WILL NOT be a character dining experience but will instead offer a family-style dining experience. Historically guests enjoyed a bountiful buffet at this Main Street USA location but going forward individually plated entrees will be the order of the day!
Guests can expect a menu inspired by the South with delicious eats like crispy fried chicken with honey pot drizzle, fire-roasted prime rib of beef, friend cauliflower and more!
Here’s a closer look at the newly posted menus.
