WOW...you are going for 2 weeks, I am so jealous. I hope on my next trip in 2007 that we can stay for 2 weeks but if not it will be for 10 days.

Looks like you picked some great places to eat. Let us know how you liked everything when you get back.

Sounds good. Smart to plan just the one ADR per day (in most cases).

I notice you have the Yacht Club Galley place down. Have you been? The menu looks like it would suit my family fine, but I was going to use it as a last minute dinner or lunch if we leave Epcot early one day. Do you think we could get in without an ADR? We'll be there the last week of August (overlapping you a bit).

Maybe we'll see you there!
I booked Yacht Galley brkfst on our departure day. I had it booked last Aug also but we didnt make it. Not sure if an AR is necessary or not but we have it just in case.

Those sound good. We have had Teppanyaki at lunch and it was really good. We also like Chef Mickeys breakfast. I like that you get to see all the classic characters and the food is good too. We didn't have a good experience at Donalds, but maybe it was just an off day?? It did seem like it had a lot of variety. We just waited forever for our table. Then they told us not to go to the buffet because the characters would be "right there"... half an hour later no characters. Then they ran out of plates at the buffet and we had to stand there and wait for them to wash new ones!!! The food was good though, when we finally got to eat it. Crystal palace is a favorite of ours because of the food. The pooh waffles and the fruit are really yummy. We had Le Cellier for dinner and it was really good. It seems to be a favorite here on the DIS boards. We ate at Emeril's Tchoup Chop at Universal and it was really delicious!! The restaurant is beautiful too. We haven't tried his Emerils restaurant at City Walk. I know many here on DIS do not like Sci Fi, but we have always enjoyed this for lunch and it is usually a must do for us.

I haven't tried the other places you have on your list, but many are on my list for next time.

All great chioces. The only one we did not do was Yach Club Galley. But we did love the Yachtmans Steak House. We will be there the same time as you. Emeril's is our Ann. spot every August. Last year we did Emril's at the Venition in Las Vegas. We liked it, but loved Orlando better.
