Hi Thomas,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! I remember watching the construction of the Fantasyland expansion at
Magic Kingdom Park and being delighted by my first glances of the Beast's castle in the distance. I was able to visit
Be Our Guest Restaurant the week it opened and it has been a favorite ever since.
Dinner at Be Our Guest Restaurant is a
Signature Dining experience. Not too very long ago, they switched from a typical a la carte menu to a Prix Fixe 3-course menu of French-inspired dishes. Unfortunately, this means it isn't possible to only order dessert during Dinner times. If you have your heart set on the Grey Stuff (it IS delicious) then you might want to make a Breakfast or Lunch reservation. At Breakfast or Lunch, you could order the Master's Cupcake for dessert. The Master's Cupcake is a chocolate cupcake topped with the Grey Stuff. And you did read that correctly, you can order a cupcake for dessert at Breakfast! After all, you are on vacation!
If you are on the hunt for delicious desserts in Magic Kingdom Park, I have to recommend that you stop by the
Main Street Confectionery to see what tasty seasonal treats they have to offer. When we leave the park, my family makes their last-minute souvenir purchases from the
Emporium while I pick up delectable desserts for all of us.
Thomas, thank you for visiting us with your question. I hope you'll let us know if we can help you with any other planning questions before your visit.
Wishing you a magical vacation,
Amy H.
