Hello all

We are going back in Nov after a sort of disasterous trip in July. Its a Mummy and Daughter only trip! (and of course the baby growing in my tummy!)

I want to try and make it as special as possible for Mum so would be grateful on anyone's thoughts on my dining suggestions. We're staying at AKL for 8-nights.

(Note: I am very aware I might be leaving it too late to get ADRs, but I will have a go, it can't harm right?!)

Arrival night... our flight gets in quite late to Orlando (6pm) so I think we will just head to the Mara and grab our refillable mugs and a snack from there.

16 Nov...
Was going to suggest breakfast at the Rainforest Cafe (its a family tradition which we missed last year :sad1: ) as we are spending today at AK and then going to MVMCP. But was thinking should I try and get us a late lunch / early dinner at Yak and Yeti before we go over to the party at MK? Or should we stick to CS on these days?

17 Nov...
Day at the MK. Breakfast from Mara. Lunch at Columbia Harbour House (we had this on the KTTK tour in July and really enjoyed the food). Was thinking Boma for dinner at the hotel? with maybe a celebration cake for my Mum to say thanks?

18 Nov...
Day at DTD. Was thinking of skipping breakfast and having an early lunch at Earl of Sandwich (again another family tradition which we missed in July). Then heading over toe the Poly and getting a 6pm ish (early ish) dinner at Ohana's

19 Nov...
Day at DHS. Was thinking of breakfast from the Mara and then either lunch or dinner at Mama Melroses' possibly with the Fantasmic package?

20 Nov...
Day at Epcot. Would love a TS here but can't seem to find any that take my fancy... we did dinner at Le Cellier in July. Was thinking maybe CS in Mexico??? And then back to AKL for dinner at Boma (if we don't do it earlier in the trip)

21 Nov...
Another DTD day. Late morning breakfast at the Mara? I am thinking of booking T-Rex for an early dinner but can't seem to find out very much about it?

22 Nov...
Dept. day. Breakfast at the Mara, a small snack before we leave for the airport.

If any of this helps in recommendations, here is some info. about likes and dislikes!

We aren't that keen on Buffets, but think we'd like to give Boma a try.
We enjoyed the 'family' style serving at LTT, this is like Ohana isn't it?
I was thinking about somewhere nice at the GF or Poly for breakfast one morning (maybe on 21 Nov before DTD).
I'd love to get over to Beaches and Cream too at some point if we can (prob. walk there on one of our Epcot days)

Thanks for any help / ideas!

I think you have some good plans- suggest you make your ADRs for the table service meals as soon as possible. The one place I'd recommend against is the CS place at EPCOT's Mexico. We don't like the food there at all, but we're from Southern California, so we can get some good mexican here and may just be spoiled.

GF for breakfast you have 1900 ( Buffet) or GF (Tb) Cafe. Both are really good. :thumbsup2
 
I think it sounds great, if you can get these reservations. I would have a few back up places just in case
