Daniela,
The
Crystal Palace may be iconic, and it may be in the Magic Kingdom, but hands down I would pick
Tusker House. Here are a few reasons why;
Better food: Tusker House choices range from classic American buffet foods to African and Indian-inspired options. This mean more variety, and I think the food quality is better too.
Better characters: Sure, I love Winnie the Pooh. But he has nothing on Mickey and friends!
Better ambiance: The exotic theming is just cool. It really transports you to a different continent.
Better noise level: Let's not kid ourselves. These are both loud restaurants. But the greater number of separated rooms at Tusker House can make it a bit less deafening.
Better waiting area: People seem piled on top of each other at the entry way of Crystal Palace, whereas the covered outdoor waiting area at Tusker House is comparably expansive.
BOTTOM LINE: It is not even close. Tusker House wins hands down.
Write me back if you have more questions!
Have a magical (and delicious) vacation!
