We dealt with the SPIDERS...what will it be this year?

[Queenofallthings]

all of your meals sound great Can't wait to hear how they all went

Thanks!

Nice ADR list!!!

I had to back-track to see if you were having the DDP again this year but it looks like you aren't unless that has changed! That's always a huge issue for us to decide. We love 1 TS a day and for us, that one TS is the price for the DDP for the day so we usually just add it on. We found that even at $48 a day (our DDP for last week), we were still able to meet that $48 with use our TS and if not that, it was for sure our TS + a little of the CS lol. TIW is good too but I've decided it's sometimes a better option for those who live in FL or go to WDW a ton and don't always say on site or get a DDP. I probably won't buy TIW until I move back to FL. Anyways, that's just my 2 cents, you might want to think about adding on the DDP based on some of those TS meals you have planned, especially if you love getting dessert

We went back and forth over the DDP and decided not to do it. I find we eat too much when we get it and this way Jasmine and I are going to split all of our meals...it will keep this Weight Watchers girl honest If there are some meals she doesn't want to split, I will split with my sister or nieces...and yes, we love dessert but again, we'll split! The only thing I refuse to share are my Grey Goose Slushies

Sounds like an awesome line-up of ADRs Queen!

And 2 visits to Le Cellier...I am impressed!

Thanks I have to thank the second ADR to Dawn...she snagged that one for us...and I'm pretty darned happy about it

Queen, great list of restaurants and fun DIS meets too. We love Cape May Cafe...I think you and Jasmine will too. Tell Jas to enjoy that soup for me as we aren't going to LeCellier this year and I will miss it (although I maya try to get a cup to go).

I am really looking forward to having dinner at Cape May...My sis and her hubby went for dinner when we were all there in Sept and they loved it. All of us love seafood, except Mini Montana, but if there's mac and cheese she'll be a happy girl

ADRs look great! I'm trying to decide between Coral Reef and Chefs for dinner on our fist night in September. We have never been to either. If you had to choose between the two which one would you go with?
We ate at Sci Fi this last trip and we all liked it a lot! I had the beef and blue salad (with ranch instead of blue cheese dressing) and it was fantastic! I would most definitely go back just for that! The atmosphere is awesome too, though! Hope you like it better this time around.

I love the pork tenderloin at Coral Reef and I love the atmosphere there! We've been hit and miss on servers there and you know how that can make or break a dining experience We had a great meal at Les Chefs in Sep also.....I think I would go Les Chefs du France....we've never had a bad experience there!!!

I am so ordering that salad...I was thinking about all the bad choices there, but that sounds delish!!! Thanks

Wow you have a full line up! Sounds great! If you like seafood you are sure to enjoy Cape May's dinner. We loved it so much in August we're going back in May

I am really looking forward to Cape May....we've only had breakfast there and we quite enjoyed it! Can't wait to hear all about it when you go in May

Great update Jackie! The ADR's sound great! I'm jealous! I'll put my input in on them
-Raglan Road: never been, but sounds great! I actually found a restaurant in Downtown KC called Raglan Road that I now have to try!
-Le Cellier: Me and my mom tried to get in there on our first day at Epcot for dinner because we had a big lunch and didn't think that we'd be hungry...but we were! There wasn't any openings so we couldn't get in.....but that's a must for my next trip! The pretzel bread and cheese soup looks amazing!
-Sci Fi Dine-In: This was our first meal of the trip and the first time at that restaurant! The food wasn't amazing, but it was good enough! I loved the milkshake and onion rings! I went there more for the atmosphere, but it was still fun!
-Boma: Me and my family ate there multiple times back in 2004 when we stayed at AKL and it was really good! I loved their vanilla rooibos tea!
-Les Chefs' De France: Never been! When we went last trip we picked some up snacks at the Boulangerie Patisserie and they were all amazing! Here's all the ones we tried over the course of 3 different trips!
Caramel Souffle
Chocolate Mousse
Coconut Pyramid
Cream Puff
Napoleon
Cheesecake
Pralineige
-Tusker House: Great character meal! I loved the characters and the atmosphere! Here's two pictures! Make sure to get the Jungle Juice, it's great!
-Beaches and Cream: Still haven't been! Next trip it's a must to try the ice cream!
-Cape May: Never been, eventually want to get there. Wish they were still doing the character meal!
-Via Napoli: Opened after we went, but might try it! I'm not a huge pizza person, so it's not on the top of my list.
-Wolfgang Puck Cafe: we went here back in 2004, but I don't remember it!
-O'hana: this is on the top of my list for my next trip!

Thanks so much for sharing all your experiences. Eating at Disney is one of my favorite things to do! One of these trips I want to do the deluxe dining...maybe the girls trip!!

Love all your ADRs! Am looking forward to hearing your reviews as we will also be eating at Les Chefs de France, Tusker House, Boma and B&C

Thanks We clearly have the same taste in restaurants

Great choices (all 14 of them - phew!). You are going to have a fab trip and you must be so excited for your meet with Dawn and Caitlin. so jealous. Believe me, I have wracked my brains to figure out how to take a quick trip during that time period before my AP expires, but it just isn't going to happen.
But - I will be there in spirit!

So excited to meet up with them, I can't wait and neither can Jas! How much fun would that have been if you could have made something work?

Virtual high-five for the ADRs. Its like you are the gunslinger of dining reservations. First to call, and locked down some of the hardest restaurants. TWO Le Cellier? Its like angels sang when you got through to that CM.

O'Hana has been a favorite of mine for many years - food is always outstanding, the atmosphere wonderfully relaxing - and the view is one of my favorites. The bread pudding at the end is killer, but I usually save room to go downstairs to get a GIANT dole whip for the bus ride home

Boma is a new fave - they have some sort of Zebra magic cake (that may have alcohol in it?) but I was embarrassing myself by eating so many.

GREAT choices - and you now know ill be consulting with you prior to any meal plans in the future!

Happy Sunday to you & Jas

I hope you're enjoying your Sunday! The sun is shining and although it says it's zero outside it just feels better when the sun is shining!

Love O'hana's for dinner...but I never thought of going downstairs to get a dole whip for the ride home...you're one smart girl

Zebra Domes...little pieces of heaven....I have snarffed down a few of those whilst eating at Boma When we stayed at AKL in 2009 I bought some and kept them in our fridge....they kept calling to me

So I was a lurker on your last TR...there I admitted it so I decided to join the party on this one! All of your ADR's look amazing! Its been a while since I've been to the World (2006 yikes!) but I am hopefully taking my little princess for her 3rd birthday sometime beginning of next year! So I am definitely living through everyone's TR's and feeding my addiction haha. I used to work at the Yacht Club so I ventured over to Beaches and Cream quite often after work and it is delish! Hopefully this trip will not include any large creepy spiders

I am so happy that you came out of lurkdom!!

How exciting that you're thinking about taking your little one....there is nothing like seeing your child at WDW for the first time

How heavenly that you could walk over to Beaches and Cream after work...I would have done the same thing!!!

Hi all, I thought I would add my two cents.

I am very excited about all the ADR's. Just to clarify, I had told her I would call for ADR's but the first day I called the wait was 30 minutes and I have to leave at 6:30 for my 7:15 AM shift so I know what a control freak...I mean detail oriented person Queen is so I didn't want to depriver her of the opportunity to make those ADR's

You'll notice SHE gets to go to Le Cellier twice but we little peasants weren't even invited, not a second thought yep leeches, that's what I'm sticking with

 

[hollisterluva92]

I agree! I've NEVER done the dining plan before! I tried to get my mom to do it last trip but we ended up getting the free $500 gift card so we just used that for our meals!

I always wondered what it would be like to have a sister...

Now that you say it...we used the free gift card for our Jan/Feb 2010 trip...and that paid for our meals.

I always wondered what it would be like to have a sister...

Do you want one...you can have mine....honestly...take her

 

[Fantasyland Mom]

Great ADRs!! We really enjoyed Cape May at dinner, and I think you will, too! Very impressed by two Le Cellier trips.

Thanks I am thrilled about our Cape May ADR...I love the atmosphere at the resort so I want to go a little early just to enjoy it! Thanks to Dawn and Caitlin for one of the ADR's .. we can't wait to spend time with them.

 

[PirateKate]

Wow, great ADRs! I think nearly every one of them is either one of my old favorites or one of the ones I want to try next time.

Great minds think alike I find it so hard when we get home to actually start cooking again....

Can I take her??! Then maybe she'll let me tag along in her Disney Room!!lol

I can't believe I'm away from my computer for 2 days and how far behind I am!!

We had a great weekend in Grand Forks! Spent way too much money though!
Thank goodness my son Ben came because we needed his body for extra shopping and booze to bring back over the border!

At least no problems crossing the border this time!!

Debbie

Oh, and your ADR's look great!!

Hey Debbie...so nice to hear that you guys had a great weekend in the states! I thought I would surprise Jasmine on Saturday morning and head down but when I got home last night she informed me she picked up a shift for Saturday. Guess we'll just go with the original plan of heading down in May

Probably a good idea!! I think we got the last room in Grand Forks since it's our spring break and the whole place is filled with Winnipegers!

AND...I went all that way and forgot to check out the selection of Weight
Watchers foods while I was there!!

I know...I thought of that after she told me she picked up a shift...then she reminded me that I said I wanted to lose another 20 pounds before we go down so that's do-able if we go in May.... My sister and her family are there right now...as a matter of fact they come home today

They do have a fantastic selection of WW food and it's cheaper than here

 

[mermaid764]

Your ADR's look awesome, The ohana breakfast is definitely one I wanna try sometime and also Cape May Cafe.

That's too bad your shopping trip to the States didn't work out but hopefully it will soon

My favorite thing about breakfast ADR's is pressed pot coffee...I'm hoping they have it here!!

Our plan as of right now is to head down the Tuesday after the long weekend in May....stay for 2 nights and see how much damage we both can do to our credit cards
