Help me drop an ADR

[3angelsmom]

I have too many ADR's! Please help me decide which to drop. I know I can pay for one OOP but want to avoid that if possible. Kids are 9, 8 & 5.

Arrival (AKV) - Boma dinner
MK day - Grand Floridian Cafe
Epcot day - Les Chefs de France
unplanned day - Whispering Canyons Cafe
DHS day - H&V (want to keep b/c my son will love the characters) &
Mama Melrose (want to keep for the F! package)
Departure - Boma breakfast

Right now I'm considering dropping Chefs & maybe snack around the world instead?
Thanks for your opinions!

I would skip Whispering Canyons Cafe over Chefs. We only went to WCC once, but did not like the food. I thought it was pretty bad. Although, it is a fun atmosphere for the kids.

We have had mostly good meals at Chefs. I do prefer the lunch over dinner though. Just because I like ordering off the lunch Prix Fixe menu. However, the dinner is a better value for the DDP.

Without a doubt - whispering canyon cafe. Gross food and poor service with ridiculous overused jokes that even my 5 year old found stupid. Especially if you are staying at AKL, it's not worth the transit.

Another vote here to drop WCC. So many better places to choose from.

All a matter of opinion and experience, my family loves WCC. I'd say drop the Boma breakfast since you are already eating at Boma for dinner.

I think that would be the best plan. The QS at EPCOT is really good. Just make sure you save room for Karamelle Kuche' in Germany. You'll get 10 cavities just by walking in the door.

My kids loved WCC and all it's silliness and we found Chefs to be quite tasty and enjoyable so I'd vote for dropping the Boma breakfast, personally.

If you're reluctant to do that, then your plan seems the next best option. Snacking around the world IS really fun and you have TONS of great options in the World Showcase.

Good luck!

I would go to DD on your unplanned day and enjoy WPE for dinner. We enjoy the variety of food and it is an excellent CS value. We also enjoy Earl of Sandwich, if that's more to your liking!

If your ADR is around the time that Remy will be there (this is the Remy restaurant, right?) and your kids like Remy I would keep Chefs!!

We are planning to do this on our AK day as I don't think we'll spend a full day there. The menu looks great!

The reason I considered dropping Chefs instead of WCC is that I am the only adventurous eater in my family and after dinner at Boma, they may need a more familiar and recognizable dinner But then again, if it isn't made well or doesn't taste good.....

I also thought the Boma breakfast would be something to enjoy on our departure day, something to look forward to even though we're leaving and fill up the kids enough that they wouldn't decide they are hungry: immediately after leaving the restaurant, before we get on ME, during the ride to MCO, waiting for our flight, during the flight, etc etc etc Although I suspect their little bellies will be hungry in a few hours anyway whether we go to a buffet or not.

Hmmmmm......I'll have to think about this a bit more.

I'd drop WCC for convenience so you don't have to go to a resort on your unplanned day, and then let your unplanned day really be unplanned. You'll find a place to eat wherever the day takes you.

If you want to keep WCC, then skip Les Chefs b/c like PP said, the QS places at EPCOT are great.

If your family isnt very adventurous, are you sure Boma is where you wanna go for your first night/dinner? They sweeten almost all of their dishes with cinamon (i think thats the spice). If you like sweet dishes, even sweetened meats, then this is the place for you guys. If not, i'd think twice about it. I'd rather do boma breakfast than dinner.

On the other hand, i like the idea of skipping chefs (again since theyre not adventurous) and getting snacks around the world. thats so much fun to do. And yummy!!

I would also drop Boma and add Kona Cafe or Ohana instead.

Whispering Canyon Cafe-----YUCK!! Not as good as it looks.

 

[DRDISNEYMD]

I would drop Whispering Canyons Cafe. Otherwise your plans look great. A nice buffet dinner on arrival day and a nice breakfast buffet before you depart is the way to go. I am looking very forward to trying Boma's.

 

[disneybex]

We really liked WCC - I'd drop one of the Boma meals (especially as your family isn't too adventurous) or pay OOP for the breakfast.

 

[beroh2253]

I would keep all and do BOMA breakfast OOP

 

[OhThePain]

I would also drop WCC or, as some have mentioned, keep them all and pay for Boma breakfast OOP.
