Just skimmed 11 pages looking for a Poly Lover's thread...if it's there I missed it.
My wait list came through and we are going to try the new studios for Halloween night.
I had all sorts of plans before I got this wait list.
Now, back to square one.
First thing, we have a standard view, so no need for any requests....not worrying about it.
But, we want to do a few things.
1. Visit Trader Sam's early evening prior to dinner.
2. Order the 'Ohana Feast from room service.
3. Go out to the beach and watch the fireworks over the castle, or - take the monorail over to BLT and go to Top of the World. Leaning toward Poly beach as we've done TOTW many times. Might also watch the water show. (Won't do the Luau.)
4. Get up next morning and have Tonga Toast from Captain Cooks.
5. Go check in at BWV as early as possible after breakfast - may be 8-9am. (Not expecting a ready room.)
So is Trader Sam's worth a one time visit? I do want to see it.
Has anyone tried the Ohana Feast? We can't get a time for the restaurant until Monday two days after we go to BWV so decided to do this instead. Plus, the fact that I am a diabetic means I eat small meals, so buffets no longer work well for me. I can just avoid the carbs with the feast and eat the meat and veggies and be bad with the bread pudding a little at a time. Same with Tonga Toast - I get to have a 'bite' only and must order something else that is sensible for me.
I've read that there is a lot of food. Would two orders be enough for three with the feast?
With my new eating plan, I am now in the mix more for the experiences.

I read on that thread that the Ohana Feast room service is very good. 
Some have said actually better than dining at the restaurant. They have suggested that the food is quite abundant, so if feeding a family of 4 adults, for example, order for 3 at most. ENJOY!
