When booking flights I found out it was actually cheaper to fly out a day earlier & stay an extra night. Cheaper to fly Saturday than Sunday? No idea what that's about.

Anyway, I booked with FD, so I have an extra day of food. Yay! I have no idea where to go though. I have absolutely no experience with WDW dining. These are the ressies I already have.

Breakfast
Tusker House

Lunch
Le Cellier
50s Prime Time
LTT

Dinner
Sci Fi
Akershus
Boma
Via Napoli
Biergarten

So, what am I missing? We were thinking about doing Trails End and/or Kona for breakfast OOP already. It just seems like a waste of a credit being so cheap. It doesn't really matter where the restaurant is as we have hoppers. Most of our ressies seem to be at Epcot anyway. lol The bulk of our time will be split between MK & Epcot regardless.

I believe Teppan Edo & San Angel were on the list that didn't make the original cut. Thoughts on these? Thanks!
 
Sort of off topic to start, but you're flights are cheaper on Saturday because Sunday is the busiest air traffic day of the week so there isn't an incentive for airlines to offer discounts. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday tend to have the best flight prices of the week.

I think you've got great reservations!!! I don't think I saw where you're staying, but some ideas for each meal:

Breakfast
Boma
Kona
Ohana
Crystal Palace
Cape May Cafe
Chef Mickey's

We tend not to do TS lunch very often so I don't know if I'd be much help!

Dinner
Many of the same above +
Tusker House
Liberty Tree Tavern
Yak and Yeti
1900 Park Fare

Whatever you choose, have a fantastic trip!
 
Your ADRs are mostly at Epcot because they have more restaurants per square inch than any other park.

Good choices so far, but we may need a little more info to help out. #1 question - do you have Park Hoppers? If not, we need to know which park you are most likely going to on the day you don't have an ADR yet. In fact, if you can give us an overall breakdown: Day #1 - Park X - (meal) (ADR location) day by day we might be able to help you 'balance things out'. Also, tell us about your party - how many people, what ages? QSDP, DDP, or DxDP?
 
I guessed I learned something about the cheapest flights! I had no idea that Sunday was a big travel day, but then again I rarely fly anywhere. :)

The specifics : 2 adults on the DDP for 10 days. We do have hoppers. I've made most of my ressies for very late dinners so that it really doesn't matter where we want to spend the rest of the day. I refuse to be tied to my ADRs. We are definitely fly by the seat of your pants kinda people, and this is our honeymoon.

We like pretty much everything in regards to food. People always laugh because we're so thin yet we pack away mass quantities of food. So, I'm open to pretty much anything!
 

Ohana for dinner if you can get it is very nice and still only 1 TS credit. Kona also has good food. Both of those are pretty high-energy environments - not necessarily kid-centric, but bustling/boisterous.

For quieter adult dining, consider a trip to a resort: Captain's Grill at YC, Turf Club at SSR, and Maya at CSR get good marks for a relaxing or romantic experience just because they are somewhat off the beaten path.

I see you have several buffets, which I think are very fun because of the great variety of foods you get to try. If you'd like another one, consider the Cape May Cafe dinner. They serve both seafood and standard American (ribs, chicken) fare.
 
If it fits in your travel plans, consider Ohana at the POLY for breakfast with Lilo and Stich. It is lots of fun!
 
Since it's your Honeymoon how about California Grill? Something special or you can do Whispering Canyon Café which has an all you can eat skillet that the 2 of you can share.

Have a great time and enjoy.:banana:
 
From your list it looks like you have meals at Epcot, DHS and AK pretty well covered.
Noticed that your only MK ADR is LTT (great choice, by the way). While great TS dining is hard to come by in the MK, how about adding a meal at the Crystal Palace? Or how about a monorail TS meal on a MK day. Kona Cafe, Captain's Grille or the Wave could be a good choice..
I think all of these places are open for breakfast as well as dinner, if you wanted to do this for a change.
 
Maybe make an evening of going to Downtown Disney. They have quite a few places to eat over there. I also was going to suggest Whispering Canyon at the Wilderness Lodge. Cape May Cafe seafood buffet at the Beach Club resort.
 
If you are looking for a 1 credit dinner, we like Captains Grill or Grand Floridian Cafe.
We are not big eaters of non-American foods, but we are trying Teppan Edo and Chefs du France this trip- both looked good to us. (doing lunch at Chefs).
We enjoy Character buffet b'fast at Cape May Cafe or Tusker House too.
 
WE LOVE TEPPAN EDO!!! Soooo yummy. Its quite entertaining too!

Ohana & Kona are both WONDERFUL breakfast choices. Both are very different from eachother, so it all depends what type of experience you want. If you want a simple breakfast with no characters and no fuss, try Kona. their tonga toast is TO DIE FOR! Great coffee too! Ohana is a character meal. Sit-down-all-you-can-eat meal. Its delicious!!! And so much fun. Love the ambiance too. You cant go wrong with either!

BTW you have a FANTASTIC ABSOLUTELY AMAZING restaurant list. I wouldnt change a thing!! Ok, maybe i'd take out Le Cellier or 50's and stick in Teppan Edo, but thats just me! Lol!! :lmao:
