Dinner at the Grand Floridian's
1900 Park Fare
features the whole crew from
Cinderella, including Lady Tremaine and the stepsisters (breakfast is a character buf-
fet with Pooh and friends). At $40 per adult and $22 for children age 9 and under, this
is a far more economical option for diners wishing to get their princess on, and the
stepsisters are an absolute hoot. This meal is also a little more boy-friendly if you're
entertaining a mixed crowd. Finally, remember that your princess may be feeding off
your own excitement over eating in the Castle—she might be just as happy with a
plastic crown purchased in the gift shop and a burger from Cosmic Ray's. We recom-
mend visiting 1900 Park Fare on a day when you're not visiting the parks.

the princesses is included in the price of the meal.
