I have my ADRS but I want to see if I am missing anything that is not to be missed.

So please tell me if you could do any 5 breakfast, lunches, and dinners where would you eat, Signatures okay, shows okay, characters okay (with kids), must be okay for well behaved kids. Would be on DXDP so needs to a place that takes DP but keep in mind you would get apps?


So where would you eat and why?

Thanks

Based on restaurants we've actually been to...

Breakfasts
#5... Writer's Stop - for a carrot cake cookie... awesome cheap and deliciously filling breakfast/brunch - just a snack credit! (Save an extra meal credit so you can try a signature ;))
#4... 'Ohana - it's nice to be served family style all-you-can eat meals, with characters - and love the Polynesian anyway
#3... Tusker House - love the bread pudding with vanilla sauce
#2... Cape May - not too crowded, nice fresh spread
#1... Crystal Palace - puffed french toast, made-to-order omelets, insanely great service every time (lost count how many times), and a hug from Eeyore... does it get any better?

Lunches
#5... Sci Fi - nice with kids... we've got two and they sit together entertained, while mommy and daddy can enjoy sitting behind them, un-interrupted ;)
#4... Earl of Sandwich - I know, not the best use of a meal credit, but nice if you want to save a credit for a signature meal and just pay OOP for this - absolutely insanely delicious sandwiches - the All American (minus the tomato) is my fave!
#3... Chefs de France - affordable prix fixe menu, delicious french onion soup, macaroni gratin, and desserts!
#2... Tutto Italia - gnocchi!!!
#1... Liberty Tree Tavern - classic American home-cooked meals - love the pot roast and turkey (esp. turkey gravy), tavern fried cheese also a favorite

Dinners
#5... 50s Prime Time - fun, with serious comfort food
#4... Chef Mickey's - parmesan mashed potatoes, Mickey domes, and Mickey himself & friends
#3... Chefs de France - beef tenderloin, potato gratin, delicious desserts, and Remy!!!
#2... Whispering Canyon - bottomless skillet... a carnivore's heaven
#1... 'Ohana - another carnivore's heaven! Love the steak, love the wings... also great pot stickers and of course, the 'Ohana bread pudding with bananas foster sauce served a la mode!

- Olivia's Cafe

Lunch

- Grand Floridian Cafe
- Dolphin Cabana Bar and Beach Club
- Coral Reef
- San Angel Inn
- Snacking around the Food and Wine Festival Pavilions (Yeah, I know this is cheating, but it really is one of my favorite lunch options for the time of year that we typically go)

Dinner
- California Grill
- Jiko
- Flying Fish
- Shula's Steakhouse
- bluezoo

Sanaa, Artist Point, Kouzzina, Bistro de Paris and Yachtsman would all probably be in my top ten for dinner.
 
I can't comment on breakfast, because we do this grab-&-go...gotta make rope drop and don't want to be too full!

Lunch - we almost always do CS for lunch, our favorite spots for CS are:
Captain Cook's
Columbia Harbour House
Cosmic Ray's
Flame Tree BBQ
Tangierine Cafe

Recommend TS for lunch (though we honestly haven't done many):
Les Chefs de France - very reasonable prix fixe, love the onion soup, macaroni gratinee and profiteroles...and Remy is surprisingly adorable!

Favorite dinners (oh, no, I have to choose only 5?):

Hoop Dee Doo Revue (our only must-do every trip and our personal favorite dining experience in the Whole Wide World, not just WDW). We like the food, love the show.
California Grill - outstanding food, service, and VIEW!
Artist Point - love the lodge, the food we had here was lovely
'Ohana - classic Disney, love the Poly, food is delicious, and the uke is fun!
Flying Fish - outstanding appetizers (esp. the mussels), whimsical, relaxing decor, wonderful service

Honorable mention to Chef Mickey's, because we love dining here our first night for the party atmosphere and the characters and the view of the monorail...it really gets us in the mood for our vacation (as if we need "getting in the mood")! Of course the food doesn't compare to any of the above, but you get to rub elbows with the fab 5.
