Wow what a trip I have yet to figure out just how much weight I have gained on this trip, but it was definitely an epic food extravaganza to beat all others!
The trip began on September 18th, and I am sitting in the airport on our way home as I type this. That's right, we spent 7 days on DDP (with our wedding in the mix), 4 days on a DCL Cruise, and 4 days on the Super-Deluxe Dining Plan (Ill explain this momentarily)!
Because it was our wedding trip, we traveled and dined with a whole bunch of others, but for the purposes of this report Ill stick to reviews for just the food consumed by the 2 of us .believe me youll be shocked to see exactly how much we managed to consume This is my first attempt at a dining review so hopefully I do OK!!
Ill be doing a full trip report later for the trip in general with reviews on the resorts and the rest of our experiences, Ill be sure to link to it here for this one Ill try to stick just to our dining experiences.
The first 7 nights we stayed at Boardwalk Villas using the regular Disney Dining Plan. After that we stayed at Poly for 1 night with no DDP, and then left for the 4 day Bahamian Cruise on the Disney Wonder.
We returned to 3 nights at Animal Kingdom Kidani on the Deluxe Dining Plan .however when we checked in I noticed they had given us 5 days worth of dining credits. Me, being the very honest person that I am (and not wanting to get charged for them later) went to the concierge to tell them about the mistake. After 30 minutes and 3 cast members trying to figure out what happened and how to fix it, then gave up and said It's too much hassle and too risky to fix it, just keep them Happy Honeymoon! (apparently they would have had to actually cancel our reservation to change it and if they did that they may not have been able to reassign us a room or something...). It was just one more bit of Disney magic for our trip!!
After these 3 nights, we checked into Jambo with no dining plan for the last 2 nights which was great because we used our leftover credits for our checkout day for lunch, dinner, and pizza delivery for the last day!! It worked out perfectly.
OK so I got a bit off topic there, sorry .youll learn as I go that I am long winded at times, as well as not the most on task person in the world but youre stuck with me at this point, so good luck!
The Cast
Me, Kelly 33 years old the planner of the family, I was responsible for not only planning our Disney Wedding and our own personal dining plans, but also somehow got nominated to plan the dining plans of 5 other groups attending the wedding not sure how or why, but thats how it happened. Im a true foodie, will eat pretty much everything at least once, love sushi (actually anything containing rare or raw tuna) and desserts of all kinds. I am a very healthy eater in my normal life but throw it all out the window at Disney every time I go I literally eat what I want when I want while on vacation in my normal life you would never catch me eating, for example, deep fried batter covered in powdered sugar but at Disney I say bring on the funnel cake!!
DH, Adrian 27 years old and a go with the flow type of guy. He has input to where we eat and what we do, but he is pretty easily distracted, so I can easily switch things up without him really noticing . He loves basically all Disney food, but in particular was on the hunt for the best steak ever, something to compete with the Porterhouse he ate at Yachtsman Steakhouse last year. Did he find it? Ill let you know later on ..
Where did we eat?
Most of our breakfasts were eaten in the room, or at CS locations, lunches were for the most part CS or snacks, with our big meals eaten at TS locations at dinner time.
In this report Ill focus on the TS, but will add in brief reviews of the CS as I go through. I have lots of pics of almost all of our food, with the exception of most CS meals and some of the cruise food as well.
