Hi Everyone! I made my ADR's last week and wanted some input. I'll put down what I was thinking for each ADR and feel free to give me input!
Background: 7 Nights Deluxe Dining Plan / 4 People (22, 19, 17, 13). 17/13yr olds are a bit picky eaters but will adapt. Currently staying at Coronado but may change once summer deals are released. Late August. We had the deluxe dining plan last time we went and we had ADR's for Bfast, Lunch and Dinner. It was way too much food. The reason we have the Deluxe Dining Plan this time is because we want to eat at several signature restaurants.
SATURDAY: Arrival Day
*Most likely driving in and planning on arriving around 1pm-2pm.
**Not using Park Tickets on this day.
The Edison - Disney Springs - 6:15pm
SUNDAY:
Whispering Canyon Cafe - Wilderness Lodge - 7:45am
*(So I can get the Minnie Vans accessed on my Lyft Account)
**Making Fast Passes at MK
Royal Table - MK - 5:30pm
***Planning on doing Dessert Party w/ Garden Viewing whenever they decide to release the dates...
MONDAY:
Tusker House - AK - 8:10am
*Making Fast Passes at AK (Hoping to get FoP Fastpass... Fingers Crossed)
Chef De France - EP - 6:30pm
TUESDAY:
*(The only day we're doing Bfast, Lunch & Dinner because we want to do Prime Time 50's for lunch again).
Kona Cafe - Poly - 7:30am (I went back and forth about this a lot because I couldn't decide between Ohana and Kona).
** Making Fast Passes at HS
Prime Time 50's - HS - 12:30
Hoop De Doo - Campgrounds - 8:30
***I spread out the meals so that hopefully we'll not be as full.
WEDNESDAY:
*Some kind of resort breakfast/buffet/quick service for a late breakfast to sleep in a bit.
**Late Morning Fastpasses most likely at AK.
Trattorio Al Forno - Boardwalk - 6:45
THURSDAY:
Chef Mickeys - Contemporary - 8:30
*We chose CM because I wanted another characters breakfast with the classic Disney Characters besides Tusker House on Monday.
**Making fastpasses for MK
Hollywood Brown Derby Fantasmic Pkg - HS - 4:30
***We did Hollywood & Vine last time for Fantasmic and didn't like it. I've heard mixed reviews about Brown Derby
FRIDAY:
Boma - AK Lodge - 8:15
*Making Fastpasses for HS
Le Celliler Steakhouse - EP - 6:20
** Here's my conflict! If the Halloween Party gets scheduled for this night, which I heard it might, we're going to do that, which will cancel out the steakhouse. I really want to do the steakhouse and may do it instead of Hollywood Brown Derby with no RSVP for Fantasmic. If the Halloween Party lands on Thursday, I'll just cancel out HBD/Fantasmic all together.
SATURDAY: Departure Day
*Again, we're most likely driving out, and will be in no rush to leave. We'll probably leave early-mid afternoon and we'll make plans for lunch. It'll be an out of park lunch and we'll probably just see where we can go and not make an ADR.
I know we'll also have several dining credits left over on our plan now. We had original plans to go to Narcosses's on Saturday instead of Edison but I wanted to try Edison. I'm still trying to think how to get into Narcosses for dinner, so if anyone has any suggestions, let me know! We'll also use up some of those credits at quick service, definately stopping at Copper Creek at some point!
Give me thoughts! Criticisms! Opinions! Facts! Let's make it like Jerry Springer up in this thread!
