anyone?

I can try to help a little:
Day 1 - never tried any of those but heard good things about FFC
Day 2 - can't comment
Day 3 - CP was good for breakfast; it was great to be in the park early and take pics on Main St., and then get a headstart to Splash Mountain!
Day 4 - Chef Mickey's was our arrival day dinner (and my DD's 14th birthday dinner), we enjoyed it very much, really got us in the Disney mood, and then we went to MK for the evening. Never been for bfast but heard it's good. We liked 'Ohana's, the atmosphere maybe more than the food, but we could have been having an off night, the meats just seemed to dry.
Day 5 - can't comment
Day 6 - can't comment
Day 7 - can't comment; but, we do want to try CG on our next trip. I don't mind using 2TS credits on the DDP, my only worry is the "business casual" dress code; I really enjoy fine food, but don't want to get dressed up while I'm on vacation - being in the cold winters in New England - it's short and tshirts only while in Florida!
Day 8 - the family loved Tutto Italia and Le Cellier - although I've heard my fav at LC is now off the menu (Maple BBQ Filet). We still want to go back on our next trip thou.

Whew - are we done yet, I'm full!
Just kidding

Day 9 - can't comment; but we want to try Marrakesh; the interior just didn't look very cosy . Heard the Yachstman is great - never been.
Day 10 - LOVED Boma! 50's PTC was just ok on the 2 occassions I've been. Would love to try Jiko but haven't yet.
Day 11 - no comment, but our friends love WCC especially when you ask for ketchup!

I might switch the Boma breakfast to a different day from the Jiko dinner unless you are staying at the AKL so you don't travel there two times in one day. Also I don't think that the SciFi has breakfast? You have some great choices!

 

[mickeysgirl17]

Thanks for your comments. No, srdipert, Sci fi doesn't have breakfast. I meant to put it in the lunch spot. I'll fix it.

.....and I was thinking the same thing about moving Boma. 3 meals in 1 day seems a lot but I don't know where else to fit it in, plus I really don't want to go to AKL twice in 1 day!

For me and my DH Boma, PT 50s and Jiko are all "heavy" meal. We like the food at these restaurants and order apps, entrees and desserts because everything there is good. I would recommend trying to move some things around so these are not all on the same day.

Also, I'm not sure I'd try to take a 5 year old to a late dinner at Jiko. Its a long meal and a child that young could get bored - bored and tired don't usually mix too well in children. We took our five year old niece to an early dinner and Jiko and she did fine. But when it came to planning the next trip the only restaurant she didn't want to eat at was Jiko because it "took so long and I was bored"

The rest of your days look good. You've got a lot of great placed to eat on there and it sounds like you will have a really fun time

I would consider changing Tony's to the Plaza. Just more of a personal favorite of ours. The others look great, you picked a lot of our favorites.
Have a great time.

California grill is expensive but worth it, a highlight! If you choose to watch the fireworks from the outdoor terrace, which we did in late may, bring a jacket because it is windy and cool out there. They have speakers outside with the music playing just like in the park during the fireworks. The food was the best we had. Flying fish was a letdown for us and we like seafood, Le cellier was good, Cape May was good. Dress up just a little and enjoy California grill. Try a sushi appetizer or the cheese board appetizer or both! Boma is better for breakfast than dinner, we've done both. SciFi should be for desserts only as an afternoon break, the regular food is not good. Beaches and Cream meals and desserts can be split between two people--a lot of food, the best desserts in disney if you like ice cream, avoid the kitchen sink, it does not look good after a meal.

Haven't tried many on your list but I don't think Sci Fi does breakfast. I had dinner there and the atmosphere and service were great. I didn;t like the shrimp pasta dish but the others liked their steak , the onion rings were very good as was the oreo cookie milkshake.Cp for dinner is my favorite I love it!!

I just changed Sci Fi to lunch which is what I meant. I realize that it doesn't serve bfst but thanks for the lookout anyway.

I appreciate everyone's replies. Anyone know how I could change it around so that I wouldn't have Boma, PTC and Jiko on the same day? Also, is Jiko really a long meal? Our ADR will be fore 8:45pm! I wonder how late we will be there.

I don't know your plans for LEAVING Day but maybe do BOMA for Breakfast then or switch another breakfast meal to that day. I did notice your weren't doing Cinderalla Castle meal that is 2 TS and could maybe substitute for 1 of those 3!! Just a thought!!

 

[srdipert]

I was going to suggest the same thing. Can you move the Boma to the morning that you leave. Than maybe you can move PTC up a little early and JIKO up early if you are worried about being there too long. My children are night owls so being their late would be okay with them I guess it just depends on your child.

 

[mickeysgirl17]

We'll be arriving around 11am so I don't think I can do Boma on the first day. I wish I could move Jiko up a little earlier too, but then we'll miss fantasmic. I don't know what to do!!!!!
