I also booked House of Blues online at 180+10 days out.

Not sure why it didn't work for you.

I know! Just hoping they stick to those party dates now or I will be disappointed!!!

We are going to try Yak and Yeti counter service this year - its all I could fit in! I had forgotten about Tusker House though . . . hmm!

I also booked House of Blues online at 180+10 days out.

Not sure why it didn't work for you.

Its strange, the whole "reservation" button has vanished off it, and i can't book on HoB website until 90 days out. Will try call Disney and see if I can book it that way!

Like your choices. We're also trying The Yatchsman Steakhouse for the first time, Sci-fi is an old favourite, actually got it booked 3 times for this trip, choc milkshakes are to die for.

I booked House of Blues online last week. Have you tried searching for the restaurant and then clicking the link to make a ressie? That one was really easy - I kept changing my mind about times and dates (left it to last) and it gave my exact request every time.

I seem to have missed the House of Blues, please tell me about it?

 

[DISWolves]

Nice list of ADR's - glad you got them sorted
I wasn't aware of HOB for ADR?

Does this mean we can expect another of your classic dining reviews?

the chocolate milkshakes at sci-fi and 50's prime time are THE THE THE The best....yummm..
by the way, if you're going during free dining, you can order a soft drink in addition to the milkshake....
that is, if you order the milkshake as your drink, they will also let you order a bottomless drink for free (like a coke) ...
that's because the milkshake isn't bottomless..
so if you do order a milkshake, and the server doesn't automatically offer a soft drink for free too, be sure to mention it..

HoB is at DTD - its not on the dining plan though, but we're paying out of pocket as we really like it! Have a look at their menu on line. I always have the rack of ribs and a skillet of cornbread - best ribs on-site by far (I love me some ribs . . .!!). Very filling, have never yet made it to dessert!!

Definitely!!! Although I am thinking of branching out into a trip report . . . !! They do seem a lot more hard work though!!!!

 

[2Tiggies]

Did it say on the website that HoB is only available 90 days out? Just wondering as I have my email confirmation (can't retrieve online - phone no. problem). I hope I don't need to call and check it is still there I will try tonight and see for your dates what I can do and if the option comes up, in which case I will let you know.

 

[Pooh's-Honey-Pot]

Woo hoo! Seems to be working for HoB now! I have my ADR as exactly the right time!!

Next question (so sorry . . .) is there a way to bring up all your reservations together, rather than having to write each and every confirmation number in individually?! I wamt to print them all off on one page!

 

[dixonsontour]

You've got some really hard to get choices there all early in the trip.

We're also trying Yatchman this time, hubbie's choice (well I've got to let him have one!) but have planned it for 22nd.

We did sci fi lunch last year and liked it. We paid oop as just had burgers and milkshakes and it wasn't worth using a TS credit for that.

Planning on trying HOB this time around. Have you seen those coupons off restaurant.com? Save $25. Paid $2.50 for ours - there are threads on the restaurant bit on here.

 

[Pooh's-Honey-Pot]

We have got that voucher actually, thanks! Got it a couple of weeks ago. We were going to try Paradiso 37 instead this year, until we saw that!! Its too good to miss!

That's a good idea! I feel like I made our ressies so long ago, I can't remember what I've got!!
Trouble is aswell, making them so far out, I keep changing my mind (well I think I do because I can't remember!!)
