The food. So often I start by checking out resorts, or sketching up touring plans but more often then I care to admit I end up scouring menus and reviews and food porn.
These are the TS restaurants that are top tier goals..
Ohana. Yeah I know, I am so original
We have yet to eat here and it seems like the kind of place that would make every person in my family happy. I also really want to check out the Poly.
Akershus, specifically lunch or dinner. I love the thought of an 8am ADR and clean dresses but the food is so much more appealing later in the day for us. I already talked to my son about doing one princess meal to appease his sisters. Knowing he gets to do legoland has made this a much easier pill to swallow. Oh yeah that and he will be in Disney. Oh and I think he might secretly like the attention princesses give the boys
Tusker House - This will be our third time there but it is a must. Love it! Rich wants the 8am ADR again.. he still talks about breakfast there. Sapphire was just talking about the juice the other day and how she misses it.
Then the rest of the ADRs up for consideration are...
Chef Mickey - we tried breakfast, considering dinner. I know the food doesn't get great reviews but the Disney vibe there is great and I want to see a lot of the resorts' Christmas decorations.
Cape May - dinner, we like seafood a lot and it seems like a good food bet. And it would let me see more resort decorations. Downside, I don't want a ton of buffets and it seems headed in that direction quickly..
Crystal Palace - breakfast. Early ADR goals. Puffed french toast. Downside is my kids aren't in love with the 100 Acre wood crew. And I am not sure how I feel about letting them go into a sugary carb load before a full park day. Am I setting myself up for disaster?
SciFi dinner - It just seems cool. And I would drink milkshakes every single day on vacation if I could.
TRex - BTDT, really liked it. Kind of holding a grudge against Landry's right now for closing the RFC near me with no notice, it crushed my little girls. And now my birthday credit will go unused every year. Bah humbug. And since we have tried it and are already repeating TH I wonder if we should broaden our horizons.
House of Blues - I have a restaurant.com certificate I printed out because I was sure I wasn't doing the
DDP (now I am sure I am) I don't really think we could/should squeeze in an extra meal just to use it. But maybe it would be nice?
