dining plan, and restaruants...

do all of them take the dining plan? seems bizarre that we are trying to figure out what to eat 4 months ahead of time when i dont even know whats for dinner.

Most do.There are a few exceptions.Can not remember off the top of my head.But someone will chime in.I hear you about planning 4 mos in advance.I made my ressies in March for a Sept trip.But If you want to eat at more popular Ts restaurants, you unfortunately need to make arrangements early.you can not rely on being able to walk-up and wait for a table(it can be done sometimes)

You can play it by ear, just be prepared for not getting in at the time you want, and sometimes not at all. 2 years ago we could not get into Chef Mickey's at all, but got a great time at California Grill. Just luck I guess.

It's not "bizarre" at all. It's not like you have to pick out what to eat during that particular meal.

Most restaurants take the dining plan. I know the Rainforest Cafe at AK and the Rainforest Cafe at Downtown Disney do not. Those are the only ones that come to mind, but I'm thinking there are a couple more.
