Sushi Appetizer at Cali Grill on DDP

[starousse]

Just wondering if anyone knows how it works if you want to order sushi at the California Grill and you are on the DDP. Can you order a roll as your appetizer or does it have to count as your main entree? Thanks.

You must be on the deluxe dining plan, which has the appetizer included. You may order any roll with the exception of Snake in the Grass and Yoshi's platter, which are available to you as entrees.

I highly recommend the Spicy Kazan Roll!!! I'm counting the days to our August reservation so I can order it again!

I highly recommend the Spicy Kazan Roll!!!

FYI - no more Snake in the Grass on the menu... the eel they were getting was not a sustainable fish... Spicy Kazan is sooooo good!

Oh, so I'd be able to get that spicy kazan roll as my appetizer on the DDP?

1) Appys don't come on DDP, unless a prix fixe menu.
2) But, you can buy it or sometimes use it an an entree.

If one is reading "DDP" as "Disney Dining Plan", then the above is correct. But if one is reading is as "Deluxe Dining Plan", then apps are included.

And the Snake in the Grass has been replaced by an excellent Dragon Roll which also counts as an entree rather than an appetizer. On our last visit I had the Spicy Kazan for my app and the Dragon Roll as my entree...

to the disboards!

Sometimes abbreviations on the disboards can make things confusing. Here DDP stands for the Disney Dining Plan and refers to the plan where the table service (TS) meal includes entree, dessert and beverage. The DxDDP is the Deluxe Dining Plan which includes an appetizer, entree, dessert and beverage. I think people are not sure which plan you're on since you're asking about appetizers but referring to the regular dining plan.

Here's a list of other acronyms that you might see on the boards:

Wow - and I had double checked the wdwinfo menus just to be sure (their Cali Grill menu is dated 5/11)!

Thanks for the info! We're taking my parents and sister with us when we go in August, and Dad is looking forward to a nice sushi dinner!

Just to add my two cents on the topic..last trip in 2009 I got Yoshi's platter as an entree and it was a perfect amount of food. I highly recommend it!

Thanks everyone. I didn't realize that. I'm going to be on the Deluxe Dining Plan.
