we just returned (May 8-15th) and found that most CS places had combos and would allow you to order ANYTHING that was listed as a "combo"...we never tried to sub one side for another, etc. For example...at cosmic rays I ordered a roasted chicken platter combo...it cost a little more than most combos...I think around $12.99...it came with 1/2 chicken, mashed potatoes (very good!), & cooked carrots....We have a 2 year old so I wanted something that I knew he would enjoy the mashed postoes...in addition, of course, I received a large drink (sometimes they will only allow regular)and desert! What a bargin for the price you pay for the dining plan!
