Potential ADRs -- Looking for feedback/suggestions!

[DearPrudence]

Hi all -- I'm a relative newbie (lots of lurking, not a lot of posts) and I have already gotten so much great info from the DIS boards! So I'm hoping some of you experts will share your expertise and experience with me...

We will be staying at POFQ from November 1-8, doing the DDP. It will be me, DH and DS7. Thankfully we don't have to try to get reservations for Cinderella's Royal Table as he's totally not interested in anything princess-related! We will not have a rental car and will be relying on disney transportation to get around.

Anyway, our 180 day mark is coming up next month and I want to have my potential ADRs all lined up so I don't have to think about it any more -- and so I can stop bugging DH about it, he's totally losing patience with me.


So here's what I'm thinking so far, in no particular order:
Chef Mickey's (don't care which meal)
Crystal Palace (I want to do this one for lunch)
Garden Grill
Liberty Tree Tavern (probably dinner?)
50s Prime Time Cafe
Maybe a Fantasmic dining package, if I can get one
Perhaps Tusker House?

Any thoughts/suggestions? Any must-dos that I'm not considering?

Looks good to me!

Haven't been to LTT. Garden Grill is getting harder to get an ADR-they only serve dinner now.

Fantasmic DP is the way to go if you are wanting to see Fantasmic without a long wait in line. Mama Melrose is better than H&V, IMHO.

Tusker House is one of my favorites! I'm going twice this year.

Hoop Dee Doo Is awesome and I think boys really like it. Mine was 4 when we went last time and was actually called up on stage!

Chef Mickey's, Garden Grill, and Crystal Palace are on the schedule for our next trip too! Garden Grill is my DS's favorite. His second favorite is Mickey's Backyard BBQ (DD's favorite). My only suggestion would be to go to LLT for lunch instead of dinner. The dinner is pre-plated. It made more sense when it was a character meal. At lunch, you have the option to get the Pot Roast - which is great!

Those all look good and have "normal" food. Sometimes I think I want to eat at the more exotic places and then I look at the menu and think about my family...nope, not going to work. I would be happy with all of those choices!

Some people say Chef Mickey is much better for breakfast- the lunch and dinner are not so great. I'm still going to try supper myself this trip.
