Any reports of food available beyond grab and go? Especially in the YC/BC/BWI/S/D area (the Swan and Dolphin app/website have zero info, makes Disney look extremely communicative). I warned my sister that they should go over to France and get some bakery stuff yesterday before things shut down, and she couldn't get my niece out because it was raining (I know, I know). Yadda yadda, we now have 2 pretty picky eaters and boxes, which was exactly what I told her would happen. Thanks!

Well without any bus service there is a SUPER stuck group of guests. Would you consider it People Soup today as we often reference the Volcano pool at the Poly as reaching a point of People Soup?

Pretty close I guess lol. It's really a lil cool for swimming by my standards but with nothing else to do lots of kids swimming and parents hanging on loungers - the loungers are hard to come by. I believe only the main pools are open. - The 2nd pool at Music was quite the mess when we walked by this morning. The duck pool at movies looked a lot better, but no one was working on it this morning so I assume it's just the main pool for both.

I just got some responses to a "what is open" Q over in the tropical weather thread on the Theme Parks board.

It appears none of the table service will open today. I get zero results for anything Oct 10th, tons of options tomorrow.

Ahh there should be a Notification the Pops up in MDE app when you check any resort dining option. None of the data in MDE is a reflection of what is available today.

The MDE notification suggests you check with the dining location directly are check with the Front Desk for the latest updates.

I was messing in MDE, and it looks like things are available for walk-up.

You will need to walk over to the BW or maybe stop by the YC Front Desk and ask them to call the BW since it is raining again.

Yes it is. FCFS.

Thanks for the live update. And may we ask what your group selected for tonight?

We will be checking out the wait at Trattoria at around 8:30, and we also have a reservation at Il Mulino for 9:30. Il Mulino is serving a limited menu but it might be a bit quieter than the Trattoria. We have a bottle of wine and some groceries in the room too so plans may change.

 

[Dave006]

Crescent Lake locations for others looking around for dining options:

Ale and Compass - YC
Trattoria Al Forno - On the Boardwalk
Il Mulino - Swan lobby level
Rosa Mexicano, Picabu and the Fountain - Dolphin lower level (1st floor) enter from the doors off the covered walkway between the Swan & Dolphin

@Tamar did you happen to notice if Cape May at the BC was open with a Buffet tonight?

We were told it was going to be, but when we walked by at about 3:30 tables were set but there was no activity and it didn’t smell like they were prepping a seafood buffet. Can’t confirm Garden Grove or Yachtsman. We were told they’d be serving but didn’t pass by them to talk to anyone.

Thanks again for your on the ground DIS updates. I hope it stops raining so that you are able to enjoy the evening at Trattoria or at Il Mulino.
