AP story:
Walt Disney World, home of Mickey Mouse, Tigger and Tinkerbell, has banned young children from its fanciest restaurant.
Beginning this week, children under 10 are no longer welcome at Victoria & Albert's in the Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, the theme park's only restaurant with an AAA five-diamond rating. . ..
Disney says it is responding to its guests' desires after surveys showed many diners wanted a more-adult restaurant atmosphere, said Rosemary Rose, Disney's vice president for food, beverage and merchandise operations. . . .
Still, Rose said there are plenty of other dining options for families. Disney World has 97 other full-service restaurants. She also said that only about three families a month ever brought young children to Victoria & Albert's, which has the highest prices and the most intimate and elegant atmosphere at Disney World.
Men are required to wear jackets, and women must wear dresses or pantsuits. The hushed atmosphere features live harp music, and the menu, which changes daily, offers seven-course dinners that can last as long as three hours. Prices start at $125 a person. . . .
Mouse Planet here. "Everything but the Parks. All you can do without visiting the 
theme parks."
