Help with Dining Choices

[3smithboys]

DH and I are planning an adults only trip in June. We are not park hopping and plan on taking an afternoon break/swim... We are not doing any character dining because we have done plenty of them with our kids. We are on the DP if that matters with suggestions..

Here is what I have come up with so far:

1. EP - Chefs de France (dinner)

2. HS - Mama Melrose Fantasmic package

3. MK - BOG (qs lunch) & Skipper's Canteen (dinner) Sure hope the menu is good!

4. AK - thinking about just doing just qs, but with River of Light show I think we will come back in the evening...Thought about AKL restaurants, but not sure if we want the transportation hassle from POR. Maybe try Tiffins if the menu looks like good. Never tried a Signature restaurant - is it worth2TC on the DP?

5. MK - maybe dinner in park or right outside - suggestions???? (not Ohana - last couple of times in was not good - used to be one of our favorites)

6. Going to Jellyrolls in the evening so I thought that we might try Trattoria al Forno

7. last day - just planning on QS

Thanks for any suggestions!

DH and I are planning an adults only trip in June. We are not park hopping and plan on taking an afternoon break/swim... We are not doing any character dining because we have done plenty of them with our kids. We are on the DP if that matters with suggestions..

Here is what I have come up with so far:

1. EP - Chefs de France (dinner)Good choice, if you are going for romantic, we like San Angel Inn

2. HS - Mama Melrose Fantasmic packageWe used to love MM, not a big fan anymore, but a great, less expensive route to see Fantasmic

3. MK - BOG (qs lunch) & Skipper's Canteen (dinner) Sure hope the menu is good!We recently ate lunch at BOG, theming awesome, food was good

4. AK - thinking about just doing just qs, but with River of Light show I think we will come back in the evening...Thought about AKL restaurants, but not sure if we want the transportation hassle from POR. Maybe try Tiffins if the menu looks like good. Never tried a Signature restaurant - is it worth2TC on the DP?Flame Tree is our choice for QS, followed by Yak n Yeti QS. Only signature we tried is Artist Point. It was good, and we have friends who went recently who said it was great

5. MK - maybe dinner in park or right outside - suggestions???? (not Ohana - last couple of times in was not good - used to be one of our favorites)In MK, Liberty Tree Tavern and The Plaza are really good, Tonys is pretty good too. Kona, Grand Fl. Cafe and The Wave(you can walk here quicker than monorail)are all great places near MK

6. Going to Jellyrolls in the evening so I thought that we might try Trattoria al FornoLove Jellyrolls! We ate at TAF in Oct. and thought it was really tasty

7. last day - just planning on QS

Thanks for any suggestions!

Signature dining is great. I would reccomend doing at least one. The view at The California Grill is spectacular. Where are you staying? We also like Artist Point

Thanks for both of your replies! We are staying at Port Orleans Riverside. I will look into a signature. Do you know if it's worth using 2 dining credits or is it better to pay OOP?

I am also trying to fit in raglan road.... So many good reviews!

You could go to AK, head over AKL to Boma, Saana or Jiko (signature and awesome) and then after dinner head back to AK for River of Lights. We love exploring the resorts and relaxing in the lounges, so this might be a good place for a break.

Thanks... I will look into Jiko... we've eaten at Boma and DH doesn't think the menu at Sanaa was anything exciting (sigh)... waiting to see what Tiffins menu looks like...
