I am going to WDW and will be on the dining plan for 4 nights next month. I currently scheduled the following:
5/24 5:15 p.m. Dinner at Crystal Palace
5/25 2:40 p.m. Lunch at CRT
5/26 5:30 p.m. Dinner at Narcosees
5/27 8:10 a.m. Breakfast at O'Hana's
5/27 5:30 p.m. Dinner at Hollywood & Vine with Fantasmic Show
5/28 11:40 a.m. Lunch at LeCellier
5/28 5:00 p.m. Dinner at Chef Mickys
5/29 4:30 p.m. Dinner/Show at Hoop Dee Dooh Dah
5/29 7:30 p.m. Carriage Ride
Any thoughts on the above? I keep contemplating on a few since reading the reviews on these boards. I don't know if Hollywood & Vine is really worth it or if I should book something else and do the fantasmic show for 10:30 instead of 9:00 p.m. and just pray we will get a seat! I have two kids ages 5 and 2 so there is no way they will sit around for an hour before the show starts. Is Hoop Dee Dooh really worth it? And is breakfast at CM's better than dinner? I was thinking of adding Coral Reef too. Looks like I will have to pay for CP and CRT and a few others since I am only on the dining plan 5/26-5/30 and the days before will be off site. Any suggestions or ideas with my itinerary would be much appreciated!! I haven't been to Disney in 10 years!! Same goes for my husband. This is also the first for the kids! I don't want to go overboard and spend tons of $ on meals either! Thanks for your help!!
