ADR Need your opinion

[jcanter426]

We are going to WDW in May and I have finally finished booking my ADR. I need your opinion on my choices, and any suggestions....

There are four adults ( My husband and I are taking my parents) we do not go all the time, this is pretty much a once in a lifetime trip for my parents.....and 1 child (age 1), we are on the DDP, and love to eat so we have booked alot of TS. I actually am going to pay out of pocket for RFC and Cinderellas Castle in order to eat at all of these places, or we may share a meal or two.

We have ADR at:

-Crystal Palace Character Dining
-Hollywood and Vine (JoJo's Playhouse) My DD1 loves to dance I think she'll love this!!!
-Sci Fi Dine Inn Theater....I have heard the food is not that good, but is the novelty worth it?
-Coral Reef
-Le Cellier
-Rain Forrest Cafe at Animal Kingdom....there are none of these in North Carolina, and my husband always talks about when he went when he was younger so I figured it may be worth paying OOP
-Wolfe Gang Puck Cafe
-Cinderella's Royal Table (Lunch)
-San Angel Inn

I need your opinion anything I should change?

We've only been to Disney once, so we've only tried one place on your list. (Coral Reef - and it was FANTASTIC!)

Your plan sounds good to me. My only suggestion would be that you pay out-of-pocket for the least expensive places (like Sci-Fi) and use your credits for the higher priced ones (like CRT).

Have fun!!!

Being that CRT is 2 credits per person, I can see why you'd pay oop for that one.

We love RFC and miss it when we're on the ddp. We can barely eat the food they offer on the ddp, let alone eating at places that are not on the plan!

So, just be aware that the ddp is A LOT of food and you may not feel like eating more than what you're given on the plan.

That being said, we do share a lot of our meals just because it is so much food! I know you'll be sharing with your one year old (assuming she's old enough to eat what you eat).

Also, we love Sci Fi. Sometimes I think it gets a bad rap on these boards. Go, eat and ENJOY!!

By the way, welcome to the dis!!

You're going to LOVE Le Cellier, Coral Reef, and Crystal Palace.

If I were going to change something, I'd probably think about CRT. In reality, CRT is just a 30-second photo op downstairs with the Great Woman, and then lunch upstairs with a bunch of wannabees (Fairy Godmother, Mary Poppins, etc.) (Who made Mary Poppins a princess, BTW? Did we all vote or something?)

For Princesses generally, the Norway character meal has a LOT more interaction -- and a lot more princesses (but not Cindy, usually). For Cindy, 1900 Park Fare is MUCH more interactive (she came to our table so often DD4-going-on-24 was getting tired of her!).

Before you book Norway, look at the menus. We liked the food, but not everyone does.

I really appreciate all of your feedback, I could not plan this vacation without these boards!!!!

We like Sci-Fi, but we go for lunch and pay OOP. We share onion rings and other stuff and enjoy the atmosphere.
