Dining Choices at WL, CR or Poly

[TNKim]

On our arrival day, we arrive at MCO at 11:30. Taking ME, I estimate we should get to the Beach Club around 1:00-1:30. I have an ADR at Beaches & Cream 2:50. Wanting just something to tide us over until dinner, my mother and I will probably just split a burger and maybe onion rings or split a sundae. We've never been to B&C and this was the only ADR I could get, so we plan to eat light because we have a dinner ADR. We really want to visit Wilderness Lodge to see the Christmas decorations and this is really the only day we have open to do it, so around 4:00 or 4:30, we plan to take the bus from BC to MK, then boat (she will have an ECV) or bus to WL. I have an ADR at Whispering Canyon at 6:35. We will probably split a meal. Does anyone know if you can split the all you can eat skillet if you pay OOP? We also would like to maybe see the Poly and CR Christmas decorations sometime during our trip. I doubt we could do both this night, but what do you suggest the best way to get to CR and/or Poly from WL with an ECV, then back to the BC from there? I also am open to eating somewhere other than WCC at either CR or Poly, if we can get an ADR, keeping in mind we won't want a huge meal, and maybe just dessert. We've eaten at Kona and would rather not do that again, and CR doesn't seem to have many options for a lighter meal that we plan to split. Or would you just stick with my plan to eat at WCC, since we've never eaten there. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You can never split anything that is "all you can eat" anywhere, regardless of how you pay.

At CR, you'd want to eat at The Wave to split something, outside of breakfast. Since you don't like Kona, at the Poly your other option would be the quick service place, Captain Cook's. At WCC, you cannot order a skillet to split. There are menu items you can split; that's not one.

You can take an ECV on the boat from WL to the CR. CR connects to Poly via monorail.

Another option, although you don't mention it: Grand Floridian Cafe, and see the gingerbread house at GF.

Thanks for your reply and suggestions. We are going to the Grand Floridan another night for dinner at Narcoosee's.
