We decided this year to get APs and take a few shorter trips with one long trip to WDW this year and get the Tables in Wonderland card instead of trying to get free dining. We were only planning on 2 Family TS meals and 1 TS meal with just DD and I.
There were 4 of us. DH, myself, DD who was 8 and DS who was 12. DD and DS are picky about their food. When we eat out, DD is the queen of chicken nuggets and mac ncheese. DS loves BBQ and chicken nuggets.
We were there Sept. 16 through Sept. 21.
I wanted to book a girls character breakfast for DD and I while she was still in the Princess Stage. After checking around, I went with Akershus Princess Breakfast since wed be able to see a few of her favorite Princesses.
Then I chose Chef Mickeys for breakfast since we were staying at the CR.
Then DH and DS said they wanted to eat at the Sci-Fi Diner again. I'd planned on skipping this park since we weren't at WDW for long but now it was back in the running.
Then while I was on the phone making ADRs at my 180 days, I asked about Le Cellier and they had an early supper on the day we were going to be in Epcot so I snapped that right up. DH is a steak and potatoes guy so I knew hed love it there.
A few weeks later after Ive made all the ADRs, DH is telling me hed like to stay at WL for our June 09 trip. So I grabbed my phone and was able to get us an early dinner ressie at Whispering Canyon so he could be sure he liked the atmosphere at WL. Theres nothing worse than paying a lot of money for a resort and then not liking it!
At that point, I realized I should have done free dining instead of keeping my 30% room only discount but it was too late to change. Ooops.
So those are the 5 restaurants Ill be sorta reviewing. I say sorta because Im sure not a foodie but I thought Id pass along our experiences.
Up first is Chef Mickeys.
