Opinions needed!

Hello,

We are planning our July 2012 trip and our best friends are joining us for the first part of or trip.
We are staying at Pop Century
It will be my parents, me (18), my sister (15).
The other family is the parents, daughter (18), daughter (12).

This will be our 13th time and their 2nd time. They went in March (with us) for our dance team trip, but the only table service meal we ate was Chef Mickey's.

This is our current plan:
7/9/2012: Magic Kingdom - ??
7/10/2012: Hollywood Studios and Downtown Disney - Sci-Fi Diner (not sure if for lunch or dinner?) and Ghiradelli’s
7/11/2012: EPCOT - Via Napoli
7/12/2012: Animal Kingdom and Yacht & Beach Club - Yachtsman’s & Beaches and Cream
7/13/2012: Typhoon Lagoon (They leave this day)

What do yall think? They requested Via Napoli, Yachtsman'sl Beaches and Cream, and Ghiradell's. They are pretty much leaving the rest up to us since the only other time they went, they ate all counter service places

Where would you eat at/around Magic Kingdom? Thinking Ohana but we didn't love the food the last time we went.
How would you schedule 7/10?

I know this is early but we are so excited they are going with us!

Please share any thoughts or opinions!

DH and I had the same experience at Ohana last time We're going to give Kona a try, which might work for your MK day. The menu looks amazing and it seems to get some pretty good reviews!

I think that if you didn't enjoy your meal at Ohana then there is really no reason to repeat the experience.

If you want to eat in the park (I assume you're asking about a dinner ADR) then I would recommend either LTT (family-style service) or Crystal Palace (at a buffet everyone can get what they want).

If you want to dine outside the park then you have your choice of any of the monorail resorts. Non-signature choices would be The Wave, Kona Cafe, or Grand Floridian Cafe.

Just a quick question. What is the dining plan on your AK day. You have plans for meals at both Yachtsman AND Beaches and Cream?? One for adults and one for children? One for dinner and one for dessert? Just curious.
