Just a review, 5 people, myself, DH, DS, DS, DD (kids 15, 12, 4)
On our second day we ate breakfast in our room. I had packed cereal and poptarts and bought milk at the general Store at POR. We kept a small cooler in the room with bottled water, milk, juice and soda, along with packaged snacks from home.
Went to MGM, boys split from us right away!! While waiting for a FP time, we were checking out the interactive things under Mickey's hat, and I ran over to Hollywood & Vine and made PS for 5:00 that night. The boys ate turkey legs from the cart by TOT, and DH, DD and myself ate at Backlot Express. We all had hotdogs, and fries. The adult hot dogs were a nice big size, firm, but not too crunchy!! ( We would soon be tired of fries !!! LOL, but they were good!) Boys met us and had sodas. Eating at counter service places usually ran us about $20-$25 for the three of us.
After going back to the resort for a swim and break, we went back to MGM for our Fantasmic PS. We got to the podium just about 5 and waitied about 5 minutes until they called us. This was our first time in this restaurant, and I highly recommend it!! It is a buffet, and some of the entrees were great. The boys liked the turkey and mashed potatoes. I liked the garlic crusted prime rib, and the pineapple teriyaki lo mein. Very good!! DH liked the seafood pasta, shrimp and scallops in marinara. DD liked the child's buffet, featuring hot dogs, macaroni and cheese and barbeque meatballs. ( I tasted these and they were quite good.) DD lived on hot dogs and mac and cheese, but it was food she would eat!! They also had baked chicken, roast pork in sweet and sour sauce, salmon, baked beans, sweet potatoes, salads, various vegetables, and breads. Drinks were included, and dessert also. They had key lime cake, pineapple upside down cake, brownies and strawberry cake. Also, ice cream and various toppings. The five of us ate for $67.06. Buffets work well for us as DH and DS are usually big eaters. We got our blue card for fantasmic seating and saw a really great show on very full bellies!! More later!! Hope everyone isn't too bored!!
