Well, well ... it pains me to say this, but, I've been hearing stories in cyberspace about one infamous, beloved eaterie on property at the one and only Anaheim Mickey's Land Resort.   It seems, according to the chatter, that the overall quality in service and food has been doin' the down-slide, AND, certain popular menu items have been rudely removed from the menu ...... specifically, the dinner menu.  Apparently, the buffet has also been suffering from lower quality and the choices have been thinning out something fierce!    Months ago the marvelous head chef at Storyteller's was told by corporate higher-ups that the menu would be going through some massive changes including many items removed entirely.   The head chef was violently against these changes and quit right then and there, and stormed out of the kitchen vocalizing angry expressions that put a blush on Minnie's cheeks and sent Ms. Poppins' umbrella flapping in the far eastern Anaheim winds.    Among the controversy among Storyteller patrons is the fact that the hamburger is no longer available during dinner hours!   The beloved burger has been banished from the dinner tables for all eternity, or until those higher-ups come to their senses and agree to bringing them back.  Now, my normal Storyteller haunting hour seems to be during the mad rush at lunch time, and rarely, if ever, have I had the fortune of dining there during the dinner hours, so as long as they don't mess around with my lunch menu I guess I can breathe easy???  But then there is the question of the cookery skills of the current head chef overseeing the slicing, dicing, freezing, and frying ..... which brings me to one curious new & improved item on the "new" dinner menu:   "Fried Ice" .... is that anything like "Lettuce Soup"?   If such "interesting" items are found on the eaterie menus out west at Mickey's LAND in Anaheim, is it only a matter of minutes or hours before they begin popping up on all the fuzzy menus all over the wonderful WORLD of Mickey in Orlando?     Shall we commission an official OLP super-snooper, in regimental disguises, to do some important undercover detective work in every corner, high and low, and everywhere in-between, and report back to us .... so we can be fully prepared with advance warning of spotting "Freeze Dried Purple Crocs Delicately Sauteed in a Subtle Ammonia Crumble Sauce .... Served over a Fragrant Pile of Vintage Wash Rags".
Oh Bahama Mama Svetlana!  My mouth is a mightily salivatin' at this very moment .... where did I throw those old filthy socks?

YES!  Somebody better sleuth this out!  But let's not tell Ser Alan until we have the facts...  I don't think he could bear the demise of his favorite restaurant EVER at Disneyland

Oh Corey..
Just the perfect thing to dodge my post WDW/DCL withdrawal!!!
I must say..altho I've never tried the buffet and rarely eat hamburgers...I do love Storyteller!
Last trip I did notice..even tho the Parks seemed crowded and hotels busy..Storyteller seemed rather empty.
We went for lunch (cheaper,you know)-one side of the place was roped off and we were told a 15 min wait.
When we were seated-only about 1/2 of the tables were used and service-while pleasant-was slow.
I do know that the Character breakfast was busy-we noticed a lot of families in the walk way one morning as we went back to the Whitewater for bagals.
 
I think the addition of the tasty treat you discribed will no doubt boost business..but my view of lettuce soup is a thumbs down.
