View Full Version : DINING CENTRAL-Join other DISers over a meal

Have you ever thought about linking up and sharing a meal with a new friend or friends? This is the place to find them. That is what these threads are all about.
Hello to everyone that might be interested in sharing a meal with another DISer while at Disney. We've started threads so that you can check out who is going to Disney and when and see if you can link up with them for a meal or two. We've had great response so far and have already got a number of new DIS friends meeting for breakfast, lunch and dinner all over the parks and resorts. I'm one of those people that, for the first time, will be sharing a meal with fellow DISers. I think it is exciting and I can't wait.
Below you will find links to all the current Dining Central threads. There will be one added for every month. Not wanting to get too far ahead of ourselves, we will post other months as the time approaches. I'm even working on another idea to collect all the info from these threads and put them in one place on a calendar of sorts where everyone can see who has reservations to share and when.
So don't be shy. Post on one of these threads, the dates that you will be at Disney. Let others know that you are interested in sharing a meal. If you've got priority seatings already and would be open to having someone join you, post those as well. This is a great way for anyone that is a bit shy about dining alone to be able to experience a nice sitdown meal without being alone. These are for anyone traveling solo or as an adult couple that would just like to take the opportunity to get to meet more good friends.
Share a little of your time with others that travel the same way you do and have the same interest. What a great way to experience something new when traveling to Disney.

Me (46) dh (58) and my dd (23) will be at POP starting Dec. 23 leaving on Jan 1. If any of you solos want to join us for a meal during that time so you don't have to eat alone, just let me know. We have our advanced DDP reservations but I think we should be able to add to it. We are really friendly and always willing to meet others.
Becky/Dan/Aimee - We are from St. Louis, MO
In May dd went to Disney Hong Kong solo. She said people were great. So when we talked about someone possibly joining us for a meal - she was excited (as are we).
I am sure we could add at least 1 person to all reservations cause I know the tables aren't set for 3. I have never seen a table for 3 (but that is all we have). So - if anyone wants to join us, let me know and I can add you.
12/23 - dinner - San Angel - Epcot
12/24 - lunch - Sci-Fi - MGM
12/25 - dinner - Liberty Tree - MK (one space taken)
12/26 - dinner - Boma - AK Lodge
12/27 - dinner - Teppekani - Epcot
12/28 - dinner - Ohana - Polynesian
12/29 - early dinner - Mama Melrose - MGM (6:30 pm - Fantasmic show)
12/30 - lunch - Crystal Palace - MK
12/31 - dinner - Le Cellier - Epcot

Hi December 2007 Travelers,
How about if we make that from 12/4 onwards? I'm there 12/4-12/15, and in that thread I've posted my schedule, including small group dining for solo travelers, and other small group activities. I still have openings in most of the meal reservations, so let me know if you would like me to save you any of the available spots. (Couples are also welcome, at any meals where I have at least two spots left).

Anyone still using this thread? Hasn't been used since last August, but is a good way for solos to meet up for a meal. May need to update the Dining Central monthly links. I would consider using this method to meet for a meal if it was updated. If not is there another thread in the Adults/Solo travelers to do this? Am a single male and will be in Disney from end of Feb to early March for a week. Have a few ADRs in good restaurants at Disney as a solo and would like company for one or more of them. May be male or female.

Contemplating returning to the world to celebrate December 2010. However, the main detractor experienced in December 2008 was the need to make dining reservations months in advance. Is that still the case these days? That hassle was enough to put me off visiting WDW anytime in the foreseeable future.

Anybody interested in teaming up for one of the Food & Wine Festival Signature Dinners or other events? I've particularly got my eye on:
Jens Dahlmann's beer dinner (Nov. 3)
The vertical wine tasting (Nov. 5)
The Bocuse dinner (Nov. 7)
But I could easily be talked into something else as well/instead, on any of the weekends (except probably not the Cat Cora dinners, I'm still upset about the loss of Spoodles. :) )
Sound fun to anyone? Drop me a PM.
