Newbie's ADR's.....how do they sound?

[tinan]

Hello there! With all of the wonderful ideas I have received from the many months on the DIS I have finally settled on our ADR's. Tell me what you think, please. The cast is me 36 first timer, dh 35 hasn't been there since early 80s, dd 13 first timer and dd 11 first timer. We are on the dining package and family is not large breakfast eaters so we will either have a lite bite in the room or fruit on the run, for lunch we plan to use CS, and use the TS on dinner.

1st day- land at MCO about 11:30am, check in, look around and Hoop De Doo at 5:00

2nd day- Epcot with 6:00 Le Cellier

3rd day- MGM with 6:05 Prime Time Cafe

4th day- AK with 6:30 WCC

5th day- This is our day off/relax day with 6:20 O'Hana's

6th day- MK with 6:20 Crystal Palace

7th day- Epcot - 6:00 Le Cellier again (family loves steak and have heard so many good things about this restaurant, thought we'd do it twice)

8th day- MK 6:00 LTT

9th day- flying home

I know I have TS's scheduled each day with HDD being a 2TS. We thought we would just pay out of pocket on a cheaper one like 50s Prime Time. We were going to schedule CRT, but with the price increases after 2/1 we decided that while we haven't eaten there before it really wasn't worth 2 TS credits. I personally wouldn't have picked HDD either, but that was a must have for the girls so I scheduled it

With two dds I'd change WCC to 1900 Park Fare CInderella's Gala Feast. Since you are already eating at Le Cellier you might want to try Concourse Steak House at the COntemporary for the other steak night - or splurge (2 TS credits) for Yachtsmen's Steakhouse. Your ADRs look pretty good. Have fun!

Le Cellier is good, but I wouldn't go twice. Nearly every restaurant at WDW has a decent steak - and you can get good steak at home as well. Plus, if you turn out to be one of those that don't like it (it happens, particularly with build up) ....

At Epcot, we really like Teppenyaki, Marrakesh, and San Angel Inn. Teppenyaki has a good steak teppan entree.

I would definately check out Teppanyaki in Japan-It was our favorite ts in WDW and its entertaining!

I agree with the others about not doing Le Cell twice (and we LOVED it) because there is SO MUCH available in WDW. Another splurge idea would be Cali Grill (requires 2 pts on dining, but if your family can share/split a few meals you can swing it.) We felt like the portions at disney (table service, not counter) were very large. My husband and I could easily split most meals since you get app. and desert as well. Just an idea. Only works if you are not at a buffet or character meal!

I'm attaching the link to my dining reviews, in case you are interested, we did both Le Cell and Cali Grill (also Teppanyaki, CRT breakfast, Kona Cafe and 50's prime time for table service on the dining plan in September).
Dining Report

Although we haven't eaten there, I thought the atmosphere at San Angel Inn was wonderful - my husband was completely enchanted.
Have fun on your trip!

another who wouldn't do le celllier twice. i'd either do any of the other epcots or if you really want steak imo Brown Derby's was better than Le celllier( only two places i got steak)
