Ok been doing tons of research and here is a first question...I don't know that much about WDW or the dining plan. Since we are staying CL at the Grand Floridian is a dining plan really worth it or should I just pay for meals out of pocket. I am planning on eating all breakfast at the lounge and picking up snacks there. So really only looking at lunch and/ or dinner out...staying 5 days. What do you experienced folks think? There are places I want to eat and try to get an ADR for of course. Thanks for input! I love this thread BTW!
We never get the dining plan when staying CL. Just way too much food for us. WE have breakfast in the lounge and then have a large lunch with a light dinner. I don't find that the CL food in the lounge is good for dinner every night, but it can be enough on a rare occasion when we have had a very large or late lunch. As a result the dining plan just requires eating more food than we want or losing money on the deal. I find the dining plan a hassle. It is easier for us to dine where we want and eat what we want (without worry of what is or isn't included) and simply pay as we go.
