Help Choosing some TS Meals

[SnipsNSnails]

I'd love to hear some suggestions. We're going for 7 nights in Sept. There will be 8 of us, Me and DH, our DS 5, DS 2, My parents who are both about 60 and my grandparents who are both about 80. We are doing the DDP (hoping to get free dining but if not we'll still buy it) Here's what I have so far for TS and would love some suggestions:

Sat - arrive - Chef Mickey's
Sun - MK - Whispering Canyon
Mon - EP - I think we might go to Ohana
Tues - lunch at Le Cellier doing MNSSHP in the evening
Wed - HS - ?
Thur - AK - hop to HS for Fantasmic in evening - ?
Fri - dinner at Crystal Palace

We don't mind leaving the parks to go elsewhere. We have 6 full days and it shouldn't be crowded. We don't want to do Breakfast or Signature or anything that takes 2 credits. Am I missing anywhere amazing that we must do??

One of our favorites is Cape May Clambake at the BC . That would be an easy one to get to from DHS . We are not big seafood eaters but we love Cape May for dinner because it's not just seafood....the buffet has a lot of variety for everyone's taste . Seeing you will be at AK on Thursday, Boma is another favorite of ours that would be convenient when you're at AK, although I'm not sure what time you need to be at DHS for fantasmic.

Thanks for the suggestions! Cape May might be a great choice, my dad really loves seafood. AK will probably close at 5 and we might not be there until then and I believe Fantasmic is usually at 8:30 so we'd probably have at least 2 hours. I'll have to look at the menu for Boma too.

Your list looks similar to mine. We are also doing CM, Ohana, WCC, and Crystal Palace on our April trip. We also have 50's PTC at DHS (one of our favorites).

I would go to 50"s Prime time for sure, and also instead of WCC, I would swap that for Kona Cafe. It's wonderful!!

My favorite 1 TS, and the best 1 TS on property IMO, is Sanaa at AKL Kidani Village.

It's completely worth the trek over there. It's a fun, relaxing setting and I think it appeals to all ages. The food is just amazing. It could be fun to spend the evening at Kidani.

I see 50's PT recommended a lot though so it's definately one to consider. Whispering Canyon is non-negotiable, it's one that both my DH and Dad have requested again. Kona does look good though, I would consider doing that too. I will definately look at the menu for Sanaa too. I think we would all enjoy seeing AKL.

Thanks for the suggestions, if anyone has more, that would be good too. I'm making a list so I can look them over with my DH and parents to choose the last two.

I think Ohana is wonderful for all ages, but Epcot has so many good restaurants in the park that you might want to stay there Monday and go to Ohana or the Cape May buffet on Wednesday (actually I'd take Ohana instead WCC but I see you have a family request for WCC)(but if you can talk them into changing, do Ohana Sunday and Cape May Wednesday).

For the Epcot day, how about the Biergarten? Based on your other choices I think both the food and the atmosphere would appeal to your family. Buffet, lots of good food choices, oom-pah-pah band music, and you're a party of 8 so you'll get a whole table to yourselves.

For the AK day, definitely Boma. Bus from AK to AKL. If AK closes at 5, leave the park at 4:30 for a 5 pm ressie so you stay ahead of the final crowd. If you have time after dinner, explore the AKL a bit and view some of the animals there. Then take the AKL bus direct to DHS.
