Haven't had Tutto (other than drinks in the wine cellar) but we really enjoyed Chefs de France and are eating there next week. Jiko gets very good reviews so I'd keep that one. We enjoy 'Ohana but reviews are hit or miss.

Hey there!

One thing I noted is that you have a dinner ADR after planning to snack at Food and Wine all day. Not sure how much you intend to eat, but last year we only had one day at the festival, and we scheduled a 7:30 PM dinner reservation. I really regretted it. I didn't get to enjoy the restaurant because I was so stuffed, and I wish I would've had more time at Food and Wine. So just my two cents - not sure if you plan to split a lot of things or not (my fiance and I split each thing we try).

Also, Ohana is a great meal if you have never been! We love it. I just try not to eat too big of a lunch. We usually do an 8 PM dinner so I just don't want you to miss out if you're too full from Raglan Road. Both of those places have the best bread pudding EVER!

We really enjoy Yak and Yeti. The Ahi Tuna Nachos were amazing!

I agree that if you want a 3 course TS dinner on yoyr F&W day, you might want to really scale back on the number of snacks you consume during the day. I'd eliminate the earlier dinner for sure.

The other thing I noticed was your first day. That's quite an early signature you've booked less than 5 hours after a big buffet lunch. Consider moving Jiko to a later time. Is Nov 1st your departure day? If not, you haven't used all your meal credits.

Epcot, we have 12 snack credits and 8 entitlements so between us for breakfast and lunch, I figured that wouldn't be too bad depending on what we picked and if we had gotten any snacks the day before.

The timing of ohana is that we have to drive home after dinner so I couldn't make it too late.

We are going to HHN so we wanted to eat dinner early. I originally planned a lighter lunch but we are on the deluxe plan for the first time and when chef mickeys opened up I thought it would be a good use of credits even if we eat light.

We are checking in the 29th and checking out the 1st so we are spreading out 18 total credits and 12 snacks for the two of us over 4 days. It's a lot of food but we are headed back over Christmas and are not focusing on the restaurants at all on that trip so I wanted to get the most out of the credits!

Like all of your choices except Ceh Mickey's - just not a fan. Consider the Wave or Artist palette, all of which are convenient to MK.

I checked those but I'm trying to maximize my dining plan and a lot of items on those menus are great values off the plan. I have heard great things though! Any other lunch/brunch places outside of the parks that you would choose?

Sorry - no. I'm not a fan/ user of DDP. We use TIW or the DVC discount.
