Lost nearly 3 stone... let’s put it back on! November 2019 DxDDP report *COMPLETE*
 
Well... maybe not all of it :pgig:

I leave for my trip on Saturday and I’m travelling down to Gatwick, staying overnight for my flight.

I have 2 days at Cabana Bay Beach Resort and then it’s on to Wilderness Lodge for 12 days.. with DxDDP.

I know it’s excessive, too much food and I’ll waste credits but I’m a complete foodie and I’ll have fun trying to use them.

I plan to try to keep this updated live as really it’s the only way I’ll remember or stick with it. So there will be pre travel day food, travel day food and two days offsite which will be decided while I’m there.

Though I’m half planning Keke’s breakfast cafe, Cowfish, Panda Express, Cracker Barrel off-site - all subject to change depending on what I fancy.

Then for DxDDP, I have the following ADRs booked with a couple spare:

Citricos 2 Dinner
Sanaa 1 Lunch
Yak and Yeti 1 Dinner
The Wave 1 Breakfast
Le Cellier Thanksgiving Menu 2 Lunch
Boma 1 Breakfast
Chef De France 1 Lunch
La Hacienda De San Angel 1 Dinner
Ale and Compass 1 Lunch
The Yachtsman Steakhouse 2 Dinner
California Grill 2 Brunch
Jiko 2 Dinner
Ale and Compass 1 Breakfast
Rose and Crown 1 Lunch
Tiffins 2 Dinner
The Wave of American Flavours 1 Dinner
Mama Melrose 1 Lunch
Flying Fish 2 Dinner
Kona Cafe 1 Breakfast
Morimoto Asia 1 Lunch
California Grill 2 Dinner
ESPN Club 1 Lunch
Toledo 1 Dinner
Homecoming 1 Brunch

Wish me luck! For finishing the DxDDP and actually posting :)

Oh I forgot to add... since I have credits spare, any recommendations?! Only caveat - no Monsieur Paul.. I’m sure it’s fab but the menu just does not appeal and no to Narcoossees though I may be swayed on that one as I’ve just had bad meals previously.

Oh I literally cannot wait! Fingers crossed my photo skills aren’t too bad.


Hopefully there will be lots of snacks and drinks too :)

Oh goodie another deluxe report. I will be reading along. I am dxDDP next April for eleven days. :)

It is hard to get through the credits for that length of time as it makes most sense to use the three a day on one signature and one other, but I don’t want a signature every day. I think something in between dxDDP and DDP would make most sense. Anyway let’s see how you get on. :thumbs-up

Ah thanks Nadya! I haven’t been since 2016 when I had a fantastic stay at the Poly DVC (thanks to your points ;)) and that was with my ex.

I’m hoping WL lives up to my dreams of staying there at Christmas time and yes, I definitely need it after this year of health woes ;)

Yes I totally agree a mid way between the two plans would be good.

And it is best to do a signature and one other - be it lunch or dinner but then not all signatures appeal.

I’ve had bad meals at narcoossee and MP doesn’t appeal. The Boathouse may get added though and I did wonder about Jaleo - not sure how the plan works there though.

Aw thanks! I can’t wait now though the last minute nerves have set in!

Looking forward to reading about your trip, have a great time. My suggestion would be to give Narcoossee's another go, or maybe Boathouse or Morimoto.
