My DDxP Adrs for Oct 2008

[creativeamanda]

So. . .my kids absolutely love breakfast. While many people have said the DDxP is "too much food" I honestly don't see how they eat like my kids:

DH makes eggs, bacon, pancakes, grits EVERY morning for breakfast. Then, (because they apparently don't eat enough at home) they eat school breakfast. Then, they each school lunch and a snack when they get home. And a full meal for dinner. Now, my kids aren't big kids or anything. DS is so skinny people think he must be starved. I assure you that is not the case. And don't try to sneak in a sandwich for dinner. At the tender age of 18 months, our oldest child ordered us to the kitchen to cook. They eat ALOT. And as I was trying to measure out breakfast, lunch, and dinner for each of them at WDW, I became woefully aware of the kids' need for more food.

Now most of our ADRs are buffets. My kids do well at buffets behaviorally (as opposed to a regular sit-down restaurants). We also plan to spend no time in line greeting characters as we will eat with the characters.

So here they are:

October 24:
breakfast--Boatwrights--7:30 am
Lunch--Hollywood and Vine--1:00 pm (character meal)

October 25:
Breakfast--Chef Mickey's--7:00 am (character meal)
Dinner--Liberty Tree Tavern--4:15 pm (character meal)

October 26:
Breakfast--Tusker House--9:20 am (character meal)
Dinner--Cape May Cafe--5:40 pm

October 27:
Breakfast--Spoodles--7:30 am
Dinner--Garden Grill--4:45 pm (character meal)

October 28:
Breakfast for the girls--Princess Storybook--8:30 am (character meal)
Breakfast for the Guys--Ohana's--7:30 am (character meal)
Dinner--Cinderella's Royal Table--4:00 pm
MNSSHP!!!!

October 29:
Breakfast--Crystal Palace--8:10 am (character meal)
Dinner--Narcoossee's--5:40 pm

We are getting park hoppers, but won't do so until we get there.

We also have one meal just floating out there. . .any suggestions? Some place in the resorts for a late dinner? Maybe Ohana's or 1900 Park Fare for a late dinner?

Your ADRs look GREAT!!!! We are also doing DxDP for our crew and have our meals spaced as strategically as you do! It looks like you have a well-rounded variety selected. I don't think you'll be disappointed in any of those choices. We (also) have 1 meal left without an ADR booked and are thinking of just leaving it unplanned in case we want to grab a CS one day. Or share a CS twice during the week. Anyhoo, can't wait to hear all of your reviews when you get back!

I've already told dh--"now make sure you have your camera, too, so I have plenty of food porn for everyone when we get back."

I just love food porn.

We are doing the deluxe and you children sound they like mine. They eat a lot and they are so darn thin! I can only dream of having a metabolism like theres!

I love your ADRs if you are looking for another dinner I think Ohana is a great choice of the Whispering Canyon Cafe.

Your ADR's look great. I also suggest 'Ohana. This is the only "must do" place for DH. This is his favorite. I like it too and both kids love it. It's fun to watch kids participate in coconut race too. And the dessert is awesome.

Thanks for the Ohana suggestion. Unfortunately, dd9 has a food allergy--bananas--and bananas are used a lot at Ohana. But Whispering Canyon. . .hmmm...

I'm also with you - we're going in early October and booked the DxDDP. We're not big people (pretty thin actually) but DH and DS eat 3 meals a day and snacks. Most days I do too. We probably won't clean our plate each time, or even eat the dessert and/or app each meal, but DS loves a hot breakfast and the DxDDP just seems like it's going to work best for us.

Plus, you don't have to worry about paying for any food while you're there. I think we'll be more relaxed.

I'd also suggest Whispering Canyon. It's fun, you can take a boat to get there, and WL is neat to check out.

Our ADR's include, Coral Reef, Kona Cafe, CRT, San Angel Inn, The Wave (2), Citricos and WCC.
