    Default Best Counter Service Restaurant In Each Park?

    Basically the title says it all, what are the best counter services restaurants in each of the parks.
    Include the water parks if you want to.

    Ps. I meant counter. Ive now edited it

    Not a very good first post

    Epcot and MK have the most amazing choices. MK is really a CS park, no great TS choices. And Epcot, with World Showcase, an incredible array. For these two parks, it's hard to choose favorites. For DHS, it's hard to find one to like. For AK, there's one outstanding choice.

    AK: Flametree BBQ (though Yak and Yeti isn't a bad option now either).

    DHS: Starring Rolls

    Epcot: Tangierine Cafe (or Yakitori House, Cantina de San Angel, Boulangerie Patisserie...)

    MK: Columbia Harbour House.

    Our favorites:

    MK: Hmmm...we don't really have a favorite - we like Casey's and always go there on our first day. but we like Cosmic Ray's for the entertainment, Pinocchio's for the view, and Pecos Bill's for the toppings bar.

    Epcot WS: Either Tangierine Cafe or UK fish and chips.

    Epcot FW: Sunshine Seasons, without a doubt - so many choices, and some really different and healthy options.

    HS: The only CS we've ever eaten at here was Pizza Planet. The kids liked it.

    AK: Flame Tree BBQ
