Disney World Planning: Picking your Restaurants

Hi friends,

So you are planning a trip to Walt Disney World, and today is the 180 day mark before your trip. That means, today you could start booking ADR'S or advance dining reservations.

It is a very exciting thing to be able to book your restaurants, but with 139 restaurants at Walt Disney World (74 of them are available for advanced dining reservations) it can seem like a tall task to know which ones are right for you and your family. It is important to find places that everyone can agree upon, so if you have picky eaters in the group, it might be best to keep it simple. I say do your research and pick restaurants that look interesting to you and your family. I mean if your family hates fish the Coral Reef might not be the best choice.

There were 3 websites that helped me in understanding what was offered in each restaurant and ultimately helped us pick our restaurants:
1. Of course I mention the Disney world official website: www.disneyworld.disney.go.com
2. www.wdwinfo.com
3. www.disneyfoodblog.com

On our last trip to Walt Disney World, we managed to eat at these restaurants:

• Via Naploi
• Coral Reef
• Chef Mickeys
• Be Our Guest
• Tony's Town Square
• Crystal Palace
• Planet Hollywood
• Rainforest Cafe
• Beaches N' Cream
• Tusker House 
• Cinderella's Royal Table

We tried quite a few new restaurants on our last trip. We made new favorites and ate at some we will probably never return to. Beaches N' Cream became our favorite dinner restaurant, as the ice cream was the best we had in all of Disney World.

There are so many restaurants in Disney World to try, so get out there and try a new one!
