Are there any concerns for late April/early May trips to Disneyland due to the wildfires?

 

[LKing]

Deleted as my response was related to Disneyland and that isn't allowed on this section of the website.

Thanks! I added you to the roll call. It is still a relatively small group compared to February or May.

ADRs are just around the corner. What is everyone looking forward to booking?

Hoping to get 1900 Park Fare dinner (best Chicken Curry hands down; really good Prime rib AND strawberry soup) and Topolinos breakfast.

1900 Park Fare dinner (best Chicken Curry hands down)

Oh good to know. What kind of curry is it? Thai? Indian? Japanese?

It was Indian. We usually make the trek to to Boma each trip, but 1900 park fare was surprisingly good. Sanaa used to be good 10 years ago when they had Bison Masala and the Chai cream dessert on their menu. Their bread service is still good but we prefer Boma.

Also, we plan on going to MK 4/6 so 1900 Park fare makes more sense.

This is our anniversary trip so we want to try Monsieur Paul and Cake Bake Shop plus a few favorites like Boathouse, Yak and Yet, and Flying Fish.

Anyone been to Monsieur Paul? Thoughts?

We're planning on trying a few new to us places: Shiki-Sai, Frontera Cocina, Kona Cafe, Amare, and breakfast at Trattoria Al Forno. We have our favorites planned too: 'Ohana, Chef Art Smith, San Angel Inn, Le Creperie, Boma, Il Mulino, Via Napoli, and Coral Reef.

Hubby and I decided to take a quick trip from April 10th through April 13th to see Mupperts-3D one last time, have some rat pizza and eat at Mama Melrose too! We will have 2 full days in the parks and we are buying a Disney Sorcerer Pass because we have a longer trip planned for December.

We will be staying at BLT. I have deemed it "Wocka Wocka Weekend", let the planning begin!!

@theresemiller2000 have you booked any ADR yet?

@Disturbia, @Jimmy Mouse and @kitkat4622 your window opens tomorrow, right?

IDK, I think so? But I usually don't make very many ADR's. I have found that I can always get what I want the day before. Even Cali Grill, Woody's roundup and Beaches and Creme. We always get Space 220 day of (I have the managers contact info). The only one I will make an ADR for is San Angels Inn. IDK why but I love that restaurant!

My daughter and I are celebrating her last “child” 17th birthday April 1-3 at AKL Kidani. We are FL locals but almost 2hrs away. Last year was MK sweet 16 with all her friends and no overnight. We’ve done AKL, but not Kidani before so can’t wait!

Firsts for us this trip: Snow White dinner at WL, SciFi diner, Tusker House breakfast, space 220, After Hours at HS, and the water park! Never been to a Disney water park before. Looks like Blizzard Beach for us if I’m not mistaken.

That's a nice connection.
