Is There Anything You'd Change? Or Any Way to Work in Citrico's?

[TiggerTrigger]

I'm still playing around with our ADRs for August, but I'd like some opinions on what I've booked...especially, since part of me can't shake the feeling that I should try and work in Citrico's (I just can't figure out what to swap for it). We were just at WDW back in Dec and I don't want to duplicate anything we did then. So, here's what I've booked so far...

Day 1- lunch @ Crystal Palace (DD2s unbirthday meal)
Day 1- dinner @ California Grill timed with Wishes (my belated bday meal)
Day 2- breakfast @ Akershus (DD4s birthday eve wish meal)
Day 2- dinner @ Le Cellier (DHs unbirthday meal)
Day 3- breakfast @ Chef Mickey's (DD4s 5th bday)
Day 3- dinner @ 1900 Park Fare (DD4s 5th bday)
Day 4- breakfast @ Kona (just b/c I want Tonga Toast)
Day 4- dinner @ 'Ohana (making up for a missed ADR in Dec -monorail issues)
Day 5- breakfast @ 'Ohana (say "see ya real soon" to Mickey)

I'm thinking Citrico's is going to have to wait until next time (again ). Do any of you see anything not worth doing that could be swapped out? Any changes? Any ideas?

Only if either you give up CG or DH gives up Le Cellier........sorry.

But isn't it nice to have a reason to come back, even before you take the current trip?

What about giving up Kona Breakfast - and just going to the Captain Cooks CS place in Poly for Tonga Toast Breakfast.

Move the Le Cellier Dinner to a Le Cellier Lunch so it goes from 2 TS to 1 TS, then you have enough credits for Citricos

I was going to say give up 1900PF for Citricos since you already have a character meal that day but then I saw that it's your DD's bday meal so I'm guessing that's not possible. But if for any reason it is an option, then that's the swap I'd make for sure.

I second the above

Giving up Le Cellier might be the only way. We specifically went with dinner service since the signature upgrade means higher quality beef, but I know the jury is still out in most cases to determine if Le Cellier is really on par with other sigantures.

Not doing DDP this time, so credits are a non issue. Also wanted to do dinner at Le Cellier for the higher grade beef, but maybe I'll put this in the hands of DH...since swapping Le Cellier does seem like the best option. Thanks!

This could also be an option. We might have to wait until the last minute on this one- i.e. is it a week or day where she's not in love with Cinderella? It's far less predicatable these days than this was a few months ago.

We just had dinner at Le Cellier this past week and would switch it in heartbeat for Citrico's. In our opinion there is no comparison between the two restaurants and Le Cellier is by no means a signature restaurant.

Thank you for posting this!!! This has been my fear. Le Cellier's switch to signature is quite new and there's so little info out there confirming if it's more than just prices that switched to signature. It's looking more and more like this is what we'll swap out. Thanks again!!!

I would ditch 1900 pf because it was nasty. If you cannot drop it I would go to citricos over cali grill

Funny that you say that...I was going to do dinner at 1900 PF for our Dec trip, but the menu sooooo didn't appeal to me and we were already doing CRT and Akershus- so I cxld it. From a location standpoint- it would make a lot of sense to swap that one with Citrico's - i.e. since we were already planning on being in the GF that night.

Hmmmmm....wouldn't that be a trip if I swapped out both 1900 PF and Le Cellier. Hmmmmm- this idea is REALLY growing on me! If I swapped 1900 PF for Citrico's I'd need something fun for the kids in Epcot. decisions-decisions!
