I'm second guessing myself again! Our trip's not until May, so at least I have time to make changes! Anyway, I was looking at our current ADRs for lunches within the parks, and I think eating a full breakfast on those days may not be such a good idea, especially seeing that lunches are relatively each day (we'll be on DxDP and have TS ADRs--oh, and we're also early risers). Even if we do get up before 6:30, I cannot imagine being hungry enough for lunch if we ate a full meal.

Here's my original plan, with idea changes in red:

Early Mon Morning (5 May) Drive to Orlando (it’s about a 4-hour drive). Visit Sea World for a couple of shows and lunch. Check into Pop Century around 3pm. Do Hoop-De-Doo Review at 7:15. Okay, I'm thinking that if we can hit Sea World first thing and have a snack while we're there and leave early (around 2), we could have a CS "late lunch" at Pop and then dinner at HDD (we're usually early eaters)

Tuesday (6 May) Epcot. Breakfast—snacks in park. 12:00pm lunch at Coral Reef, 7:20 dinner at Le Cellier.

Wednesday (7 May) Hollywood Studios. Early breakfast at food court okay, no breakfast, maybe a bowl of fruit and something in our resort mugs, 11:05 lunch at Sci Fi, 4:40 dinner at Brown Derby (part of Fantasmic package)

Thursday (8 May) Magic Kingdom. Breakfast at hotel same idea as Weds, just a snack and mug for bfast, 11:30 lunch at Tony’s Town Square, 6:10 dinner at Boma. (I figured we’ll leave MK sometime after lunch, have dinner, and then return to the park for the evening)

Friday (9 May). Check out of Pop. 9:20 breakfast at Chef Mickey’s. Hit Downtown Disney for the Disney and Lego Stores and use any remaining snack credits at Goofy’s Candy Shop, and drive home. I had an idea that maybe I could get an earlier time for Chef Mickey's and hit DD and enjoy it (not just store shop), then have a TS lunch before heading home.

All of our other meals I'm feeling comfortable with, it's just arrival day, the breakfasts, and our departure day. Anyone willing to help a gal out and give me your thoughts/input/advice? TIA!
 
Is absolutely fabulous!!!! I highly recommend eating there. The food is soo good and the desserts were to die for.
 
HoB is fantasic, whenever we go with our friends we always have lunch with them here. The shrimp po boy, rosemary corn bread, caesar salad and red beans with rice are our favorites.
 
I'm in for HoB!!! I had my 40th b-day lunch there about two weeks ago!! I would certainly do that again!!! We all loved it!!!
 

We've had really good meals at Planet Hollywood on our last 2 trips, 1st one was an arrival dinner and the 2nd was our last day after check out lunch.
