Dinning:
The choices you make concerning dining will arguably have one of the greatest
impacts on your overall vacation experience. Now that may sound a little heavy
handed, and you may think we should lighten up a little, after all we are
talking about where to eat, not picking a college for the kids.
But stop and consider for a moment that unless you call for a family fast
during the duration of your stay at Walt Disney World, you will face the
question of when and where to eat several times a day.
Disney has approximately 200 restaurants, with menus that offer everything from
Alligator Sausage to Meat Loaf and Double Cheeseburgers to Horseradish Crusted
Salmon, at prices that make airport food look cheap.
Given the choices and the expense involved, we believe some prior planning is
helpful.
