Disney4me Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 In April of this year, Disneyland Resort announced that two brand new character meals were coming to the resort — and in true @DiningInDisney fashion, our Disneyland correspondent Heather Sievers was all over it! She enjoyed Mickey’s Tales of Adventure Breakfast Buffet (which is billed as a Brunch Buffet on weekends and select Mondays and holidays!) at Storytellers Cafe in Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel — and it. was. awesome. Storytellers Cafe This buffet brings Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Chip, and Dale in their finest adventuring attire — and Heather received this cute button on her visit, too! Doesn’t Mickey look ready for fun? Mickey’s Tales of Adventure Breakfast and Brunch Mickey’s prepared with his hat, cargo vest, and cross-body bag. We like to think he’s packed extra cookies and krispie treats in there. Mickey’s Tales of Adventure with… Mickey! In hiking gear! He’s also sporting this sweet hiking boots! He’s so cute I can’t even stand it. Check out his boots! Minnie is a little more fashion-forward, in a short trench coat and patterned shirt. Minnie Mouse in her adventure gear! But she’s got hiking boots, too! We’re pretty sure there’s a heel on there, so maybe these aren’t the most practical hiking boots, but style is style my friends! Minnie’s boots! We love her hat, complete with a butterfly and patterned trim. She really looks fabulous. Minnie is ready for adventure! Chip visited in a handy vest and bucket hat. He’s colorful and ready for action! Chip (Dale is here, too!) is all geared up! And so are the drinks! This Sparkling Californian is a mimosa sunrise, and the gradient of color is beautiful. Sparkling Californian The Ultimate Bloody Mary is garnished with cucumber, an olive, and a lime wedge. Ultimate Bloody Mary A Mimosa Flight is a ton of fun, featuring Raspberry, Cranberry, Peach, and Orange. It’s basically juice, right? Bring it on! Mimosa Flight For non-alcoholic options, check out these fun agua frescas! Minnie’s first Agua Fresca is pineapple, mint, cucumber, and lime. Her second offering is watermelon, lemon, and basil. So fresh! Agua Fresca The set-up has large drinking glasses — so load up! Agua fresca station! The big beverage draw here, though, is something a little more unusual: Cereal Milk. In this case, Pluto has infused milk with Fruit Loops and Cinnamon Toast Crunch! These bags of milk (bags a little awkward but interesting) are super sweet and definitely full of cereal flavor. Cereal Milk! Prefer your milk and cereal prepared more traditionally? With, you know, cereal floating in the milk? There are small boxes of various types for you as well. Cereal and Milk Diners will find tons of breakfast and brunch options on the buffet, including some basic pancakes and mini Mickey Waffles! Pancakes and Mickey Waffles There are also bagels and cream cheese. Bagels and Cream Cheese Bagels and lox are also available, already loaded up with cream cheese, salmon, red onions, and parsley. Bagels and Lox The Four-Cheese Quiche is thick and creamy, with a nice crust. Four Cheese Quiche Breakfast nachos are a delicious mess (but seriously — all nachos are a delicious mess). Breakfast Nachos Savory options continue with Camp Fire Loaded Potatoes. These tasty bites are packed with peppers. Camp Fire Loaded Potatoes A fresh Pasta Salad is available, too. And here’s a pro-tip: if you plan your breakfast for later in the morning, you can also enjoy the lunch-y brunch items and more desserts! Pasta Salad Chocolate Bread Pudding holds court on the sweet side of things at Mickey’s breakfast. Chocolate Bread Pudding And there are several desserts, including Coconut Cupcakes. Coconut Cupcakes These Chocolate Peanut Butter Tarts are totally rich and indulgent. Chocolate Peanut Butter Tart And this Chocolate Cheesecake is the height of decadence. We love the chocolate shavings and colorful flowers on top. Chocolate Cheesecake And what’s a Disney buffet without a fun character cupcake? Chip and Dale are celebrated here, with colorful frosting and lots of Mickey sprinkles. Chip and Dale Cupcake It’s true: Mickey knows how to throw a breakfast/brunch buffet. And this one at Storytellers Cafe is so sweet! We love the characters in their adventuring best, and while the eats aren’t exactly off the beaten path, they’re delicious and abundant.
