It's a few weeks till I go now, and as we're going at the busiest time of the year, I am going to book my restaurants really soon.
I'm going for half board plus, so that will affect a lot of my restaurant choices as I want to get the best out of the HB value wise.
There aren't any restaurant's that I MUST go to - I always though Blue Lagoon would be my first choice, but reading the latest reviews it seems to have really gone down hill. Can we just go here for a sneaky cocktail at all?
We get there lunchtime on a Sunday, and I was always planning to eat at Walt's that day and watch the parade from there, but I really like to be down on the street by the action, and I'd worry from now till the day that we wouldn't get a window seat...
Should we still include Walts even at a non paradey time of day? And what do you think would be the best meal choice for my not very disney-fied bf as a 'welcome to the magic' meal on our first afternoon?
I was thinking maybe lucky nugget, or even Walt's at a different time, I really want to go somewhere with character, so we dont feel like we're stopping the first days fun to eat - if that makes sense.
I'm also thinking about making an 8.30 reservation for cafe Mickey one evening, so we can eat in time for fantillusion at 10 - is this a reasonable guess? Or should I go earlier?
I know, I give it all way too much thought. But it's taken a lot of persuading to get him to come round to the Disney way of thinking, and although Ive tried to get him to look on DLRPfoodguide.com he just shrugs and says wherever I choose is fine.
But I know if we go somewhere bad he'll secretly wish he'd looked more..... men!
