Just back and I miss it already! Anyway, here is where we ate, what it cost and a few side notes! We were a family of six consisting of Me 36, DH35, DD7 and DS 11, also My mom 56, and Dad 62. We were staying t WLV so we had a full kitchen where I prepared breakfast nearly everyday.
Friday 4/11 arrived about 4pm and met up with my parents who had been there since the 5th. Drove over to Jungle Jim's where we waited for about 45 minutes for a table. The kids ordered pizza, Mom and I had the Tarzan Burgers and DH had some kind of burger as well, Dad had the Skinny Minnie (Chicken breast, potatoes, and grilled veggies). Everyone had a softdrink. The bill came to ablout $60.00 before tip. I used a $40 gift certificate from Ibidusa and paid the difference in cash. Everyone enjoyed their meals and as usual the portions were good and the service excellent. Overall I'd rate this a B+, we usually try to stop here on our first night.
Saturday 4/12 Donald's Breakfastasaurus prior to park opening. Excellent service, wonderful food, great character interaction and the CM's were wonderful as well. I can't say enough good things about this place. Definatly on my list to go again in June. I'm not sure of the total because I used Connections vouchers which cost about $80.00. A+
Dinner at Casey's Split two large hot dogs, fries, drinks and brownies, kids got ice creams from the ice cream shop too. Mom and Dad were not with us. About $18.00 for the food and $12.00 for the ice cream.B
Sunday 4/13 Breakfast in Room.
Lunch Snacks in park
Dinner-Cinderella's Gala Feast at 1900 Park fair. $140.61 including tip. Excellent character interaction, nice array of food, plenty to choose from, hot and fresh. Seated promptly and excellent CM's. I would do this again. A+
Monday 4/14 Breakfast in room
Lunch at Pecos Bills 1 double cheeseburger, fries drink and 1 turkey leg from the wagon outside. About $13.00 for me, dh,dd,ds.
Dinner The children went to the Peter Pan Club for 3 and 3/4 hours $75.00 while the adults went to DTD and Pleasure Island. Adults ate at Wolfgang Puck express Mom and Dad had chicken and potatoes and fruit, DH and I had pizzas. Everything was very good, portions of potatoes with the chicken was enourmous. Cost was approximately $25.00 per couple. B The rest of the evening was spent at the Adventurer's Club where drinks were approximately $20.00 per couple. I don't think my dad stopped laughing the entire evening. It was lots of fun to see them enjoy themselves so much.
Tuesday4/15 Breakfast in room
Lunch Garden Grill 75.00 including tip for the four of us (2A, 2C). Good food, ok service and great character interaction. A much better deal than the ice cream rip off (oops I mean social! ) B
Dinner no one was really hungry so we stopped off and had a Kitchen Sink at Beaches and Cream (used one Connections voucher) asked for the vanilla to be put in a separate dish because Dad can't have foods with nuts in them. Waitress insisted that we take the turkey sandwich, chips and beverage to go since it was included in the voucher.
Wednesday 4/16 Breakfast in room
Lunch snacks
Dinner at 7:15 Hoop Dee Doo. The show was great as usual, the food was even better this time than the last. Everything was hot, juicy and plentiful. We had a few special requests for Dad who can't have any foods with seeds. They prepared him a salad separate from eveyone elses but they did put on cucumbers and tomatoes (hello..seeds!) He mangaed to pick these items off and eat around it. They also served him some mixed steamed veggies ( hard as a rock--but he will never send anything back so he cut them with a knife and crunched through them--again they put summer squash in there--seeds!). He had the strawberry shortcake minus the strawberries (becasue of the seeds). Overall the food they traditionally serve was excellent, but I'd be cautious about special dietary needs. Even though I called ahead and went over things with the waiter uppon seating we still had to ask for each of the special items to be brought out--this made Dad feel like he was a burden. I would not do this with someone with special dietary needs without being more specific (altough I don't know how I could have been more specific) or even talking with the chef. Overall B+
Thursday 4/17 Breakfast in room
Lunch at the Sci-Fi Everyone had burgers and fries some of us had shakes others had softdrinks. For the six of us the total was $90.00 with tip. The burgers were excellent, but the fries could be better (obviously frozen bagged kind like I sever when in a hurry at home). Excellent service and a fun CM. A

Late snacks in the room (ragu express, easy mac )
Friday 4/18 Breakfast in the room

Skipped dinner, no one was hungry (imagine that!)
Sunday 4/20 Easter Brunch at Chef Mickey's. This place is really looking beat up. The furnishings were grungy and the carpet was a real mess. There wer mismatched chairs at the table and it just looked well past a makeover. I won't go back until they have refurbished. Great character interaction, prompt service. There were never enough desserts out, often the table was empty. Basic foods were plentiful though. We used Connections Vouchers so it was about $100. for the six of us.
Monday 4/21 Breakfast in the room before meeting in the lobby to be flag family before departing.
Lunch at Cincinatti Airport McDonlad's 4 cheeseburgers, one large fry and two small sodas about $10.00.

If you have any questions I'd be happy to answer what I can.
