Dining plan ADR's for Dec trip

[brooker]

Hi all,

I was working on this plan and I was wondering if anyone thought this can be improved upon. This is our first trip ever to Disney and we have a 7 year old. Suggestions such as location of lunch and dinners on the same day, particular restaurants, etc.

So here is our plan:

Day 1- arrive in the afternoon go to dinner at Crystal palace and spend the rest of the evening at MK.

Day 2 MGM a CS at maybe Backlot Express( any opinions on this place?).
Fantasmic Dinner package at Hollywood and Vine.

Day 3 MK Chef Mickeys for breakfast and Cosmic Rays for Dinner.

Day 4 Epcot Electric Umbrella for lunch and Le Cellieur for Dinner

Day 5 Typhoon Lagoon Leaning palms for lunch and later in the evening to ESPN for dinner
Day 6 Animal Kingdom for Donalds Breakfastsarus buffet for breakfast and maybe back to POP for dinner that day

Day 7 Downtown Disney Earl of Sandwich for lunch off to the boardwalk for Big River Grill and brewing works

Day 8 last day, breakfast at POP, we leave at around 11 AM

In 7 nights we would use 7 TS and 7 CS meals.

Anyway you look at it, the dining plan is a lot of food. But I think you made some good choices. Personally, I like ABC Commissary at MGM the best out of the CS's. I think the rest looks great!

Are there anymore suggestions or comments? Have I picked CS and TS that are in the same general area in the them parks? I don't want to be travelling all day to get a bite to eat, so if you have any ideas let me know.

I think your selections look great. The nice thing about the parks is that there are plenty of selections for the counter services.
I love Cosmic Rays, they have a nice selection and free entertainment. I have not eaten at the Backlot express, we generally eat at Rosies because it seems we are always at that end of MGM at lunch, we love Hollywood and Vine. I know this place gets alot of mixed reviews but we always have gotten good meals and good service.
The electric umbrella at Epcot is good, and they have plenty of seating. LeCellier is terrific, I have never gotten a bad meal there.
I like the food court at the POP, great selections.
For your evening at the MK if you need a snack later make sure you try something at the Bakery
