Dining Credits Ques

[aurora22]

We are staying 8 nights with the regular DDP. My current schedule is below. I am at 189 days so not yet set in stone, but I don't really want to make any changes. Just wanting to know which restaurants you would pay OOP for as I am 3 credits over my 8. I am thinking Le Cellier and Sci Fi? Any help would be appreciated! I am traveling with 4 adults and 1 child and Le Cellier is a birthday dinner for my dad. We have dined at all restaurants on the list before except for Boma.

Ohana - dinner
Boma - Dinner
La Hacienda de San Angel - dinner
Le Cellier - dinner
Crystal Palace - breakfast
Sci Fi - dinner
BOG - dinner
Chef Mickey - breakfast
Garden Grill - dinner
Biergarten - dinner

Thanks!!

I would pay Crystal Palace, Chef Mickey and Sci Fi out of pocket. Breakfast is always cheapest and out of the dinners Sci Fi is the cheapest.

You could change BOG to lunch or breakfast to save a dinner credit.

The 2 breakfasts and Sci-Fi out of pocket. Breakfast buffets are typically less expensive than lunch/dinner and you can eat relatively inexpensively at Sci-Fi (but can also spend a fair bit of money there).

You'll definitely want to pay the kid's extra meals at the a la carte places. Just find which 3 are the cheapest or if there's an app they would prefer or can share with an adult.

With 4 adults, you're in a great place to do some split meals. 2 adults use the DDP and 2 adults pay OOP, then you can still share the 2 desserts for all of you. With Le Cellier in the mix, it makes it a little trickier. Remember than an adult TS credit is roughly worth $40. If no one is ordering anything at Le Cellier that is equal to that, then everyone should just pay OOP there. Your Crystal Palace breakfast is also under that $40, so you may want to pay ADULTS OOP there as well (but still use the DP for the kid).
