Should I get the DP?

Should I do the dining plan (see the below question first before answering, please)?

  • Yes - you will definitely save money

  • No - you might save but you might lose some flexibility on the menu

I set up my ressie without DP but now I am wondering if I should add it. Here is my dining plan (for a solo) for a 6 night stay:

One dinner at Narcoosees (2 credits)
One dinner at Brown Derby (2 credits)
Maybe 2 more TS meals (Boma breakfast?) (Raglan Road?)

If I had the dining plan, I would definitely use all of the CS credits and would find a way to use the snacks (probably water or maybe a tiny breakfast).

Doing the math, it's pretty close which makes me wonder if I should do it. But I've heard that some restuarants limit the menu items on the DP. Since I'm eating at Narcoosees and Brown Derby (2 credits each), I don't want to get there and find out that I can't order the menu item that I want. FYI I don't know what I want yet and won't be able to choose that in advance ... it's bad enough that I have to choose which restaurant I want in advance!).

What do you think?
 
In the choice you have for meals, you will not really find many limitations as far as the DDP goes.

The only limitatations that you will find at your choice of locations, is that some drinks are not included. Narcoosees lets you choose basically anything you want for beverage. The rest of the locations on your list offer basic drinks as choices.

This was our experience last month, we ate everywhere on your list but Boma.

If you think you will save money than go for it! My guess is that with your selection of restauants you will likely save money.
 
You might want to pay OOP for the Brown Derby. Quite frankly the prices are not that much higher than most of the other TS, but they charge two credits. I had the grilled salmon for about $24 which was about $20 at Mama's. Granted it was better at BD, but 2TS's.

Have a great trip!
 

Thanks or the info krmrr. I'll look into prices too. It's defintely the two 2 credit TS meals that are throwing me off.
