Anyone care to share their Deluxe dining schedule?

[billnang]

I am undecided if I will switch to the Deluxe plan... We are a family of 6, so it will be about 933.00 more... but I just love all the Character meals and fun for the kids...

we have a 11, 10, 4, 2 yr old, so we have strollers and rather not take buses, but we will to get somewhere we enjoy.

Just wondered if anyone would share a schedule for ideas on planning.

A lot of blanks - wanted to avoid the "hurry up and finish your breakfast so we can get to lunch on time" syndrome - so I know we won't max out our moneysworth for food from the plan, but there are so many other wonderful things to do and I wanted to keep at least a little flexibility in our schedule.

DW has two mornings to herself when DD and I will go to AM EMH's - she'll have room service breakfast and spa treatments those days...

 

[GoofySon'sMom]

I plan to make all of these ADRs on Monday morning! We may end up cancelling a few but I would rather do that then get there & realize that we wanted to eat someplace we couldn't.

We won't eat much at most of the breakfasts ... just some fruit and coffee/tea. We like to go for the characters and aren't big breakfast eaters.

Wow, that's a lot of food, especially including the snacks. But we plan to be on the go from 9, 9:30 in the morning until midnight or later. Nothing says we have to eat every course at every meal. We are foodies and the restaurants are a HUGE part of our trips. Please with so many days, we won't be rushing to see everything.

The regular dining plan is a step below the deluxe. Keep this in mind. You can manipulate your food credits however you'd like to. If you want three TS's a day, go for it. If you want a combo of CS and TS, you can do that as well. The only time you need to check yourself is with signature dining. Some higher end restaurants count as two credits. Plan out what you want to do on a sheet of paper and then count. Go from there.

 

[gigi1313]

although we have not made our ADRs for sept yet, we do have a rough draft in mind, based on places we've dined before, places we want to try and a "formula" that works for us...

MK Day: breakfast at CP (early, before park hours)... snacky lunch (share a CS or two, add some "junk" like ice cream, etc) likely at the resort... dinner at SoA...

Epcot Day: breakfast at Norway (before park hours)... snacky lunch... dinner at Garden Grill...

MGM Day: breakfast at Cape May (we're planning to stay at BC)... snacky lunch... dinner at Mama Melrose (Fantasmic Pkg)...

AK Day: breakfast at Donald's... snacky lunch... dinner at Y&Y...

Non park-filled days (half days, leisure pool days, etc)... HDDR! Dinner at AP (we really enjoyed it last time)... Breakfast at 'Ohana... Dinner at Narcoosees... MBYBBQ... Dinner at Spoodles... Lunch at B&C...

hope that helps...
