DFB already has a breakfast review.

Just curious. I don't like DFB reviews because they essentially write a sentence/photo/sentence/photo/sentence/photo. It's basically like reading a text conversion. Is this something that you guys like?

A reminder that 'Ohana is reopening today.

We are actually headed to breakfast there right now! I couldn’t believe I was able to snag a last minute ADR while waiting to get in to MK this morning!

I prefer text photo text photo to block of text a mile long or text advertisement text advertisement like some of the websites.

It's way better than when they try to make you watch a video.

I am also a fan of text photo text photo. Honestly graphics and images are a far more efficient way to communicate as long as they are done well.

Yeah, I agree with the PPs in saying I like the photos, but I'd prefer a larger text /photo ratio. I actually prefer Josh at EasyWDW when I have an option. He's also not quite as bubbly- I like a little snark.

Probably saving the best stuff for after October 1

That DFB post isn’t actually the review. It’s the “We’re having breakfast at ‘Ohana this morning and this us what the place and the food looks like!” thing they do. They’ll probably have some kind of review where they talk about the quality of the food later. They’re going to be having dinner there later today, too.

I’d bet on an Eat to the Beat announcement for ”phase two” which conveniently starts Oct 1.

I enjoy their content and I like a lot of photos because I like to see what they were actually served. However, DFB is not where I go for a real critical review. They generally describe what they got and what they thought, but tend to leave out strong opinions. Which is fine, but it's also why I consume different media for different looks at the same thing.

I see FOP finally broke the 2 hr mark at 140 minutes. If nothing else, it will be interesting to see just how long the lines get over the summer with no FP+ or any version of it. It never ceases to amaze me how long people are willing to be in line to ride something. Looks like this is one we'll be skipping on our trip. Not a chance I'm in a line anything close to that long.

Agree !! Leaving next Weds--- my fave attraction, but wont wait that long ...

 

[tinkerhon]

If you wait until the last ride of the day it shouldn’t be that bad. Just enter the que at 5 minutes until park close and you should be fine.

So, it seems like (at least for the TIER 1 attractions) -- its either RD or wait until park closes... Miss my FP+

Don't count on it. I think the 'inflated ride times at park close' was largely an artifact of not having many FP riders slow down the standby lines at the end of each day. Last week, most wait times were disappointingly accurate or even low. We got in a posted 25 min line for Navi 30 min before park close. We had a DAS for FoP we were planning to use afterward. We bailed after 15 min and were no where near half way through the line. Fwiw, that is an awkwardly crowded line and very difficult to exit when your DAS kid is having a melt down.

If the M-80's are the same version of that cover band who played in Epcot a couple of weeks ago, my family and I would highly recommend catching one of their shows. We watched two of their sets on June 27th and their performances were far better than some of the big name acts that we have seen at Eat to the Beat in the past.
