New Dining Room At Victoria and Albert's.
True Disney foodies know you haven’t arrived until you’ve dined at the crème de la crème of restaurants – Victoria & Albert’s at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. But now the top-rated dining room has a new “must do”: the gorgeous Queen Victoria’s Room. Queen Victoria’s Room is behind closed doors just off the main dining room. With just four tables, restaurant manager Israel Perez promises attention to your every whim. They’ve brought back French gueridon service – a gueridon is a fancy rolling cart that goes from table to table for customized service and “wow” factor – a flourish of Himalayan sea salt atop your filet, a decadent wine sauce or a lavish display of cheese, for instance.

Anyone who’s tasted Chef Scott Hunnel’s exquisite creations knows this is a memorable affair. How often do you savor perfectly seared Kurobuta pork tenderloin and belly, or butter-poached lobster with bisque and lobster roe foam? And vegans and vegetarians are Hunnel’s favorite challenge. The sommelier happily will pair something delicious with each of the 10 courses. Yes, 10 courses, but they’re small. Still, plan on three to four hours of leisurely dining.
It’s worth the price of a baby-sitter – no kids under 10 are allowed in the dining room, so you’re guaranteed an evening of blissful quiet. Be advised, men must wear jackets (tie optional) for this formal affair. You’ll float out the door with a long-stemmed rose for women and personalized menus for everyone to carry home. Cost for Queen Victoria’s Room is $200 per person, plus $95 for wine pairings. The restaurant has its own reservation line, 407/939-3862. Reservations for Queen Victoria’s Room are being accepted now for this special dining experience starting Feb. 5, 2010. There is just one seating nightly.

As a pastry chef I am going to try V&A when we get out there, but this has made me want to do the Victoria room.

Some more info on it.
It will have the same menu as Chef's Table. Here's a specimen. For contrast, here's a specimen of the main dining room menu. Given that the main dining menu is really so very very good, I don't really think it worth upgrading to the $200 menu - $75 base increase before service is big. Off-setting that, there are no extras to pay for unlike on the main menu. The main dining room menu is 6 courses + amuse bouche + coffee + petit fours. Wine pairings = 5 glasses at $60. The QVR/CT menu is smaller tasting 10 courses + amuse bouche + coffee + petit fours. Wine pairings = 8 glasses at $95. I have to say I am more tempted by the idea of the Queen Victoria Room than I ever was by the idea of the Chef's Table. ALSO, I recall (but can't find anywhere to check) that whilst you could use a Tables in Wonderland Card for a 20% discount in the main dining room, that you couldn't use it at Chef's Table? If that is the case, presumably you can't use it at the QVR either?

LOVE the sound of this, having dined in V & A a couple of times
 A new place to save up for then... or maybe a win on the lottery!
