Monsieur Paul. In terms of food they are both really solid in park experiences. I prefer Spice Road Table en toto as my favorite park restaurant, but I love al fresco dining and their quiet by the lake vibe does it for me.
American palettes are an issue - basically, it means we can't have nice things. Dating only highlights this in the worst possible way and also makes it clear who I'm not going to want to go out with again really fast! Dining plan...please, don't.
ETA: I haven't been in 50s since I was in high school on a band trip because I hate antics, unironic kitsch, noise, and chaos when I'm just trying to eat a meal, and I remember distinctly thinking "this corn is canned." I was grossed out then. I see the pictures and I just don't get it.
Every time Disney opens a new place and lists an inventive, well thought out menu, I cry a little inside because I know I'm about 0.2 seconds people are going to be crying about wanting their burger and fries and why can't the new place serve that, even though a large portion of the in-park menus are already that generic fare. Why can't they just leave one or two places in park with different menus alone??
Dining in Hollywood Studios is bleak. Our friends who go always ask me where they should eat when they visit that park, and I end up having to tell them to just go eat elsewhere (I have a hard time recommending Hollywood Brown Derby after our disasterous experience there).
