l know this is an old thread but just thought l would resurrect it

we used to love the Ponderosa on world centre drive and on our first trip back in the day the breakfast buffet was $2.99 and you could easily get a coupon for 50cents off so your breakfast was $2.49 and at around a $1.60-$1.70 to the pound you had a filling breakfast to set you up for the day for next to nothing

shame we cant get the same value now

Oh ponderosa! I remember going, almost daily, on my first trip back in 2003. I was only 18 and had never seen anything like it! So much food for such little money!

In the late 80s/early 90s the Ponderosa on the 192 was queued out the door every night

I remember in the late 90’s at 16 years old thinking sizzler was the height of sophistication😂

sizzler / Ponderosa / sweet tomato must surely still have a place around disney, cheap food for the mass's, im surprised they have all gone ( or something similar hasnt appeared )

I know even CiCi's are getting fewer on the ground, is that a sign that people are happy to pay disney buffet prices ? ?
