substituting cheese for dessert?

[Kristi113]

We are headed to Disney in Sept. and are using the dining plan. I am not a big fan of desserts, but LOVE cheeses. I thought I read somewhere that you can order a cheese plate for dessert at restaurants. Can anyone confirm this? I would much rather do that than feeling like I have to order a dessert just because it comes with the meal. Also, is this for TS and QS? Are there any other options at QS, such as fruit that can be subbed? Dessert at every meal is too heavy. TIA

There are unofficial reports of changes to the dining plan that will be officially announced today according to rumors. Assuming these reports are correct, at QS locations you will be able to substitute any item that qualifies as a snack credit for your dessert. At TS locations, you may be able to substitute the dessert for a side salad, cup of soup, or fruit plate; however, it appears that it will be up to the individual restaurants to decide exactly which substitutions are available.

The only restaurants that I know of that has the cheese plates for dessert are the signature restaurants, however there may be 1 credit TS restaurants that I don't know of. My DD14 is in love with cheese and prefers the cheese plates over a regular dessert too. With that said she has gotten them at both Artist Point and at Cali Grill which she said were both excellent.

Maybe paying OOP would be better than DDP for you.

Thanks, but we got free dining, so I don't think so. Also, my kids and husband love dessert. I am in the minority on this one
