Its hard to believe that we were there less than a week ago ! We being myself (31) and my DH (35). 
Things did not go quite to plan on this holiday as just over a week I had an accident with my back and ended up wheel chair bound. 
Strange though having a different perspective on matters.
(We did not have any food package or meal cards, although we did get DVC discount at some places)
We stayed VWL for 8 nights,(appitizer) then we did the 3 night DCL cruise (Entree) and finshed off 3 nights at BWV (Dessert)
Roaring Forks - The counter service at WL
Having bought the mugs DH and myself used this counter service alot. The breakfast platter was very nice, (scrammbled eggs, bacon, hash browns and a bisciut? I think thats what it is called). Cesar Salad was also a fave along with the fruit cups they did. They always had a soup of the day and chilli. DH loved the chilli,
and despite it reaching 97 he still ate it more than once with crisps. I had a really good clam chowder as well. Soup and chilli were also really cheap !
Whispering Cannyon - WL
I should start this off by saying DH is a very shy and quiet person and I agonised over whether or not to make the ADR (5pm). But since we were staying there I plummed for it. ( PLus I had seen the photos of the skillet !!! ) We went there and to our relief we sat in a corner out of the main line of firing. I think our server gaged our level of enthusiam by asking us to say 'howdy'. She did the throwing of straws but not much else ( I had warned DH about the ketchup). We had the skillet. It was really good . To start with you get a salad that has a fab apple vinegarette and corn bread. Now we enjoyed the corn bread but it was not at all what we expected. It was really sweet like cake. DH said he would have liked it at the end of the meal with custard ( no offence meant). Just as we were finishing (and thinking we had got off lightly) our server came and made a pirate hat out of a napkin and put it on DH head !!! He went so red, she then gave me one. 
DH was so frightened he kept it on as we walked out incase any other servers shouted at him. 
We loved the food but DH he would never eat there again !!!
Rainforest cafe (DTD)
After the WCC experience I knew DH would want to eat here. It was his fave restaurant. You couldn't make ADR here but thanks to the disboard I had got the phonenumber and called to make a reservation (8pm). I was soooo pleased I did as when we arrived 7:45pm people were being told the walk in time was 2.5 hrs. (it was a saturday night) A lot of people felt very angry as well as they had waited a lonngg time . We were seated at 8:10pm and did feel a little smug. The food was really nice we shared out starter chicken strips with a coconut curry sauce (yum) DH had his ususal stirfry thought it was very nice and I had the tropical paella that was good too.
We were too full for desert !
Hope you enjoy reading will continue soon ... (back aching from sitting)

We're staying at WL for the first time. I hadn't seen much about the CS there. I'm glad to hear it was good. We're also going to WCC. My husband, however is the opposite of yours. We are also going with Sil and Bil. Bil is exactly like my husband. Us wives and the kids should get a laugh or two from this one. I'm just hoping for a fun server.
