Can't wait to hear more!

When you are on the dining plan, do they give you a receipt with what it would have cost?

no it all says zero dollars, but it does list everything you got, then i just go look them up on the menus online, thatswhy it takes me awhile to write these lol

 

[devonsmommy]

Thanks! I definitely want to do this too. I want to show dh how much money we saved. LOL

I tried doing this for our honeymoon trip in December but failed miserably. I just had too many receipts. I plan to do it in September though. Can't wait to read more.

Dinner

Dessert Bobby got the mousse and I got the chocolate wave. the choclate wave is one of my FAVORITE disney desserts, it is SO good...bobby said his was just "ok" not bad but nothign to write home about.

Crab legs: $29.99
Steak: $31.99

mousse: $7.99

Subscribing - I love your posts so far, they're so informative. I love Coral Reef, and next time I might have to get the King Crab.

And what exactly is the chocolate wave?

All of it looks yummy! Gets me excited to go for our September trip too.

Like I said on someone else's report, I wish we were going to Coral Reef. DH would love the aquarium!

 

[disneyfav4ever]

Your DH's pictures are cracking me up.

 

[honeybee213]

How did you get the personalized menu?

 

[creativeamanda]

You make me want to change my ADR for the Garden Grill in October to the Coral Reef.

 

[purplepeg]

I love reading this. What a great idea. It will be really helpful for people who have never been amd for all of us who just love food and prices

 

[Girldreamer02]

Yumo! We love Coral Reef! Df had the customized menus done for us this yr as a surprise to me. I believe they almost forgot ours too and he looked a little panicked then they returned and gave them to us. Did you see any scuba divers while you were there? We sat right next to the tank and they were swimming through. One of them got freaked because there was a shark. It was kinda funny.

Great report so far, Just curious about the Menu you had there. I noticed the only dinner choice you had was King Crab. Was that what you had requested or ? We arent big seafood people but we have an ADR for the decor and surroundings. Ive looked and saw they have other options so im kinda confused? Thanks!

 

[tlhbdm]

How do I get the customized menus and how much do they cost? I would love to do this for our trip in September. Since we can't go anywhere for our one year anniversary we are celebrating three months early.
