"Oh Ye of Little Faith - of COURSE We're Eating at Boma!"
During our last 5 visits to WDW, we've always made it a 'tradition' to enjoy a meal at Boma, mainly because the CMs always bend over backwards to take care of Ron's special dietary needs, but the price is reasonable and there's always something on the menu to look forward to. I mean, really, what's not to love about an all-you-can-eat buffet? It goes without saying, that I rarely make room for dessert, but here is where I fantasize gobbling up at least 4 or 5 Zebra Domes [I never make it past 3]. It was early morning and our flight was departing at 11:15AM, so we stepped out onto our balcony to bid adieu to our furry friends:
...and headed downstairs to Boma just as it was opening for breakfast. It was blissfully quiet, so there was no problem with an ADR. If there was, I had the back-up plan of going downstairs to The Mara and eating there. It had served us well during the past week and we did have a counter-service credit, besides the table-service credit we had hoped to use now. The hostess lead us to our table and asked if we'd eaten breakfast here before - of course we had, and let her know so:
Within a few minutes, our server was pouring us some 'imitation frunch' as we stepped away to begin the journey down the buffet line. [That juice is really called Jungle Juice, and, while quite good, just doesn't pack the same punch as the former.] She was pleasant enough, but didn't smile the whole time she was waiting on us, not even once:
....looking back, it was kind of sad, thinking that someone is seemingly not enjoying their job, when those around her obviously were:
....breakfast was, as usual, delightful and really filling. We ran the gamut of eggs and bacon, to fresh fruit, to pap, to (what else?) Zebra Domes...
....note to self: when I get home I think I definitely have to start a diet!
