    Do you have ideas about where to eat with the dining plan. We have the 1 table, 1 quick service, and 1 snack. What would you suggest doing, eating a big BK, lunch, or dinner? What is a good quick service meal to eat? Is the dining plan worth the extra $?

    Jennifer,

    The great thing about Walt Disney World is that there are literally hundreds of dining options. The downside is that listing them all is impossible. So here is my advice;

    • Send me a question with what parks you will be in on what days.
    • Let me know what cuisines you like/dislike
    • Tell me where you are staying
    • Let me know a bit about your traveling party, and any special experiences they may want to have (like meeting Mickey Mouse or going to a Luau!).
    • I will send day-by-day recommendations!

    Until then, here are a few solid answers;

    I have always found the dining plan to be a money saver, not an extra expense. As long as you pick the one that is right for you (between the Quick Service, Standard, and Deluxe plans), you should find it to be a great perk.

    With a family that includes younger children, we try to go with a bigger dinner, a lighter lunch, and breakfast, while a table service experience, is more about the show and less about the volume of food.

    Please send me that follow-up question, and I can start suggesting where to dine!

    Have a magical (and delicious) vacation!
