This is it! Our last day at WDW. Since we dont have AP we wont be visiting a park today. Our flight is leaving around 5 p.m. so we usually just spend the day around the world, eating, and buying things to eat-you know for on the plane. Direct flights home are about 5 hours. We have a connection so we are looking at about 7 to 7.5 hours.
Day 11-OUR LAST DAY! So Sad!
Since we werent that happy with our breakfast at Contempo Café earlier this week, and we figured that the breakfasts at POP we the same (we have eaten breakfast previously at POP and have not been impressesd), we decided to return to one of our favorite CS-Wolfgang Puck Express, Marketplace. There always seems to be conflicting information about whether WPE takes DDP for breakfast but we had seen a sign on the counter on a previous visit that let you know what was included with a DDP credit for breakfast.
We arrived just before 10:30 and the place was pretty empty. My DM opted for the Spinach and Mushroom & Cheese Omelet ($11) and DD and I both ordered the Belgian Waffles ($9). WPE has 2 omelets (the other is 3 Cheese and Tomato) and at $11 they are the priciest of the breakfast meals. At $9 the Belgian Waffle or Chocolate Chip Waffles are the cheapest entrée. They also offer a Smoked Bacon Pizza that sounds interesting ($10). I think I may try that next trip. There are a total of 7 breakfast entrees. So not a lot of choices but Im sure everything is tasty!
Breakfast is served at WPE from 9-11 a.m. Lunch and dinner from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. For breakfast you get an entrée and beverage with a CS credit. For Lunch or dinner you get an entrée, beverage, and dessert.
Once again we lucked out and got to sit in the area by the kitchen. Our food was delivered quickly-about 7 or 8 minutes from when we ordered-everything is made to order.. The omelet was served with potatoes and the waffles were served with fresh fruit-bananas and strawberries, with whipped cream and warm maple syrup. I really hate soggy food so I ordered our fruit and whipped cream on the side. If you get it on your waffle they make a pretty design on your waffle.

The food was good, very good. The waffles were done nicely-crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. The omelette was exceptionally good! Cooked just right and delicious. My DM let me have a few bites and I agreed with her-it was very good (and Im not a huge fan of cooked spinach). So were the potatoes. Nicely seasoned and served hot. My DM enjoyed the omelet so much that she actually went up to the kitchen and asked to speak to the chef. She thanked her for the entrée and told her it was the best omelet she had ever eaten. My DM has never personally thanked a chef before. DD and I had refillable soft drinks and my DM had coffee. She said the coffee was good-I took her word for it.

What's included with a CS
In total our meal would have cost $36.97 (before tip) So about an average of $12.35 per meal. Pretty high for a breakfast so a good use of a CS credit considering it was breakfast. But if you want to maximize your credit value you would still do better getting lunch or dinner. An average lunch/dinner with dessert and beverage would run about $25-twice the cost of breakfast.
Used 3 CS, 8 left. $37.00
We returned to POP to checkout (late checkout 1 p.m.) and took some photos around the resort. Finally took a photo of DD next to her sign, 1999, which was located all the way at the end. Here she is showing her disappointment in her sign As the year 2000 approaches with a wink; and a smile, the world awaits Y2K and prepares itself for the various challenges She felt cheated! LOL! (Remember when so many people were worried that bad things would happen-maybe even planes falling out of the sky? )
Huh?
We utilized the Airport check-in and sent our luggage on its way (I LOVE airport check-in at the resorts-so nice to not have to haul our luggage from the rental car to check in at the airport.
We made one last visit to EVERYTHING POP on our way out. I wanted to take a few more photos-funny thing but overnight the electronic menu signs had been replaced (temporarily) with menus printed on cardboard. DD said a CM told her they were having problems with the new menus and had to remove them to get them fixed. The new (temp) menus didnt have any DDP logos on them.
