The problem with Santa Brunch is you can't make a reservation, and we are not the only ones that love this tradition. So the goal is to get seated in the first round of feasters and if at all possible, get a seat in the main brunch area. We lined up about 1.25 hours early. I'm so so lucky because Philip and Tiffany stood in line while I got to rest in a comfy chair. I joined them in line about 10 minutes before they opened. I could not believe how many people had crowded in. The line was super long and snaked around the hotel and out the lobby doors. But we were on the "list" that was taken about a hour before.
They started seating the large families with reservations first. At about 10 after the hour, they started the walk in line. We were the 4th group from the walk in line. I let them know it would help me greatly if I could be in the main room since I have a tough time walking distance (not far from the truth). We were lead to a lovely table by the meat table.
We proceeded to feast for 2 hours. We enjoyed fresh strawberry crepes, shrimp, rolls, salad, cheese, ham, prime rib, potatoes, bacon, and desserts. There was way more but that is what we wanted. I was seated with my back to the room so when Mr and Mrs Clause came around, Philip and Tiffany were silent until they were right by our table. This year, I offered to take a photo of the Clause family without Philip and Tiffany although after what we paid for brunch, they should be happy to have a pose with them.
We throughly enjoyed ourselves and practically rolled out of there with our food baby bellies. We had planned to come hang out at my house making cookies and shopping but instead, we all laid down and took long naps! All that eating is exhausting!!
Here are some photos:
