Sushi on Dining Plan?

[Leota]

We have chosen to eat at California Grill & Wolfgang Puck's Cafe partially because we love the sushi at both places.

DS(16) usually orders a deluxe sushi sampler at both places as his appetizer - Has anyone else done this on the dining plan? Would that count as an appetizer?


Also, I noticed on the literature that WPC has a surcharge on certain items. Does anyone know which items they charge this extra fee for?


Just curious......

Can't speak to Wolfgang Puck's but can say YES you can get the sushi at California Grill and have it covered under the dining plan. Any of the first three sections of the menu -- flatbreads, other appetizers, or sushi -- can count as a "starter" on the dining plan. Then you still get your entree and a dessert. I will be honest in saying that I think the "signature" restaurant thing -- where it costs you two credits -- is a rip-off. There just isn't that much difference in price between many sigs. and a TS place like Le Cellier. However, for a sushi eater at California Grill, I'll make the exception. If you are a sushi eater, and you have the appetite to order a big plate of sushi followed by your entree and your dessert, then yes, I think the two TS credits are worth it.

The way my 16 yo eats at CG, I figured 2 TS credits was worth it - Last trip there he was responsible for about $90 worth of the bill. He'll do the same at any restaurant he has free reign at.

Thanks for the answer - we are looking forward to our CG Sushi!

This is good to know, cause I was thinking the same thing. I love sushi and I was wondering how it would work at Cali Grill since we made ADRs there for dinner one night.

Leota, your DS isn't the only one who can wipe out sushi. Last time DH and I went to Kimonos at the Swan, I polished off at least $100 worth of sushi plus drinks plus other food.

I can't wait to hit Kimonos on our first night. I have to do a couple out of pocket meals anyways, might as well be sushi! I'm not even going to THINK about what that bill is going to look like. I have a feeling there will be some serious damage done.

I am not certain, but I think I read that sushi is considered your entree at WP. I would direct you to where I found it, but I have absolutely no idea where that was! Hope someone with more info can help.
