Breakfast at Wilderness Lodge’s…

I made it downstairs shortly after the restaurant opened at 7:30. There was only one other family seated in the dining room.

I looked over the menu to see if there were any changes since I last had breakfast there in Dec. 2013.

And speaking of my last visit, that time I made a pretty good choice when I had the…

House-made Banana Bread French Toast with Bananas Foster Sauce

Can you tell I’m a big fan of Bananas Foster?

Anyway, I considered having this again, but decided I wanted something that would be both sweet and savory…

All-You-Care-To-Enjoy Breakfast Skillet with Scrambled Eggs, Western Home Fries, Bacon, Sausage, a Mickey Waffle, a Buttermilk Biscuit & Sausage Gravy

Where do I begin? I guess I’ll be nice and begin with the best, which was hands down the Mickey waffle…

This was warm and tasted like it was fresh out of the waffle iron. Somehow it seemed better than the Mickey waffle I had had the morning before from the Boma breakfast buffet. However, this may have been because it was the one and only shining star among a mini-buffet of mediocrity. Let’s start with the breakfast meats. They were ordinary, totally unremarkable except that I was given only one slice of bacon and one sausage link. I remember thinking this was rather odd but after tasting them I decided that one was enough. The remaining three items on the platter were not good. Though the potatoes looked really good, they were barely warm and pretty flavorless. The biscuit was also not hot and tasted liked it had been leftover from the day before and reheated. The sausage gravy was very thin and flavorless so it was of no help to the biscuit. And last were the scrambled eggs which were extremely runny. You can probably see from the photo that they were sitting in a pool of uncooked egg mixture. Now some people like their eggs this way, but I am not one of those people.

So the “All-You-Care-To-Enjoy” Breakfast Skillet was for me a failure. I had no desire to get seconds since I had barely touched the first round of food, with the exception of the Mickey waffle. However, this turned out to be a good thing because lunch ended up being a 4-course meal.
