We were on the dining plan and used it as an excuse to try new restaurants and new foods. We weren't so concerned with trying to get the most expensive things on the menu and therefore get the most bang for our buck.
We (me, DH, DD 11 and DS 7) enjoyed the following restaurants: 'Ohana's, 50's Primetime Diner, Hollywood and Vine, Le Cellier, Rose and Crown, Chef Mickey's, Cinderella's Royal Table, Boma, Pecos Bills, Cosmic Rays, Garden Grille, Sunshine Seasons, Contemporary Fun and Food Center, Kona Cafe, Flametree Barbecue, San Angel Inn, and a few turkey legs, many Mickey ice cream sandwiches, and a Dole whip thrown in for good measure. (Turkey legs and Dole whips weren't included in the plan, but sometimes you just gotta fork over the extra $$!)
No matter what, if you follow the plan--i.e., get an appetizer, entree, dessert and beverage for TS, you will go over the $35/day you've actually spent. And you will have leftovers. And you will not be hungry. Bon appetit!
