First off, I have to say, I've seen the pics of the dessert party, and it definitely peaked my interest. I loved the view as well. Unfortunately, we won't be there during those dates, so I'll have to live vicariously through whoever can go.
TDC Nala, sangria in to go cups? My kind of take home dessert!!!!
I wonder if I could trouble the Friendies. I don't know why but I am seriously second guessing myself on a lot of my ADRs for my upcoming trip. To give you all a little background, we normally go with family (as in not just the three of us). Last year, we went just my husband, our son, and myself. It was wonderful. Went where we wanted, when we wanted and even changed ressies. During
free dining, no less, it was so nice!
This time, I have the whole big clan in honor of my birthday. The group includes the three of us, my parents, my nana, and my father in law. My dad will be with us for three days, everyone else for the whole six.
The problem is that my mother doesn't like hardly anything I pick. Which is a whole other ball of wax. So I'm wondering if I tell you what I'm looking at, if any of you could tell me if you liked it, if you've eaten there lately, or even point me in the direction of some food porn if you have it.
Our first day I'm hoping to get a ressie for Nine Dragons. We haven't eaten there since the renovation, and I'd still like to try it.
The second day, I had wanted to try Ohana's for dinner. My mother, quite frankly, hates the menu. Everyone else is pretty much down for whatever I suggest. I've never been to Ohana's, so I'm not sure what to do here. Other possible ideas are having everyone go to Chef Mickey's for a late breakfast, because I think character dining would be fun with our big group, and my dad is still here on this day.
The third day, we have
MNSSHP, and we pretty much leave the day open.
The fourth day, I'm having lunch at Sci Fi. Not because it's spectacular food, but because I think my four year old will love eating lunch in a car. Mom and Nana won't be joining us, they'll be going elsewhere.
The fifth day, we're having dinner at the Brown Derby to celebrate my birthday. This is a place my mom actually likes, and everyone likes, so score one for me.
The sixth day, we leave, but our flight is later, so we actually have time for breakfast on this day. I was debating another character breakfast, but I'm not sure.
Thank you so much if you read all that. So, has anyone been to / enjoyed Ohana's lately? Nine Dragons? Can you think of any other places...not knowing my family at all

...that you think is good for a big group?
Thanks again. I really appreciate it.
