Need some input from the experts on my dining plans for me, hubby and DD11 (we have deluxe dining) The ones in RED I need help with, but feel free to comment on any:):

Monday 5/16 (arrival day): Lunch 11:45 Crystal Palace (need to see Piglet!)
Dinner 5:45 Le Cellier or 7:20 Tutto Italia
(will probably do Illuminations at 9, although the Electric parade is at 9 and only showing 2x while we are there)

Tuesday 5/17: Breakfast Cape May Cafe 7:55 am
Dinner Yachtsman 5:20 (will try to get over for Fantasmic at 9- only nite to catch it if we keep Friday ressie at CRT)
or Ohana 8:55 (very late for us, but Wishes at 9 visible from there?)


Wednesday 5/18: Breakfast Kona Cafe 8:55 am
O'hana 5:20 or Tutto Italia 7:20

Thursday 5/19: Breakfast Tusker House 9:15am
Dinner Narcoosees 7:20 (figure we will catch Elec Parade at 9/Wishes at 10 easily on this nite)

Friday 5/20 Breakfast Chef Mickeys 8:45am
Dinner CRT 8:20 (this is not a must do for us, all fireworks are at 9 that nite and bummed about missing them on last night:sad2:

Saturday: Hitting the highway after Breakfast - Have O'hana 7:35 but may change.

HELP!:upsidedow

On a side note, I did snag a Fantasmic Lunch Package for Brown Derby on Friday, but there is nothing there we want to eat- and although we would LOVE to have seats for Fantasmic, I just can't see wasting the 2 credits for a meal we don't want). Will be canceling this and a few others as soon as I make up my mind!

You will be tight and rushed for the electric parade with Le Cellier. Tutto you might miss illuminations depending on how fast they are. With deluxe you get all three courses so it takes a bit longer.

I'd do yachtsman and F! You won't be seated in time to see Wishes at 9. At that time of night they are normally VERY VERY late in seating. I'd say you aren't seated until close to 9:30.

Wednesday 5/18: Breakfast Kona Cafe 8:55 am
O'hana 5:20 or Tutto Italia 7:20
Much better time for ohana!!
Thursday 5/19: Breakfast Tusker House 9:15am

will not make the parade.... at least 90 minutes for a signature restaurant and then have to get transportation and into the park.... you can watch wishes from the beach though


Dinner CRT 8:20 (this is not a must do for us, all fireworks are at 9 that nite and bummed about missing them on last night I would choose the experience in the castle since you are seeing fireworks other nights.

I made a couple notes. Some of your timing I think is off.
 
Monday 5/16 (arrival day): Lunch 11:45 Crystal Palace (need to see Piglet!)
Dinner 5:45 Le Cellier or 7:20 Tutto Italia Figure about 2 hours for dinner at LeCellier. Afterwards you could walk to the Beach Club and take a taxi to the Contemporary and walk over to MK. If you tell the taxi driver MK he will take you to the TTC so be sure and ask for the Contemporary.

8:55 at 'Ohana doesn't give you enough time to be seated before Wishes
Wednesday 5/18: Breakfast Kona Cafe 8:55 am
O'hana 5:20 or Tutto Italia 7:20 If there's an MSEP this night the 'Ohana reservation would be perfect. Otherwise, Tutto's could be cutting it close, but you have a good chance of seeing IllumiNations. There are plenty of good spots around Showcase Lagoon. Just pick one where you can see the center of the Lagoon (no trees or islands in the way).

Thursday 5/19: Breakfast Tusker House 9:15am
Dinner Narcoosees 7:20 (figure we will catch Elec Parade at 9/Wishes at 10 easily on this nite) Not enough time to get over to the MK in time. They do dim the lights and pipe in the music for Wishes at Narcoossee's. You can also go out onto the deck and watch. As an added bonus you will be able to see the Electric Water Pageant as well.

Friday 5/20 Breakfast Chef Mickeys 8:45am
Dinner CRT 8:20 (this is not a must do for us, all fireworks are at 9 that nite and bummed about missing them on last night:sad2:
