20 nights of fun & food - Onsite (DDP) & Offsite Noms in August 2019!
Hmm, how do I begin? I have all the best intentions of completing a full trip report but I know it probably wont happen - however, food is a different matter entirely! One of the best things about an Orlando holiday is the food, right?
Cast Natalie (Me) - 30 years young, Primary School Teacher and holiday planner. This will be my 4th time to Florida and I think I'm more excited for this one than I ever have been before. Will (DH) - 27, Project Manager for a shop outfitters. Happy to go along with my obsessive planning 2nd time in Florida and very excited about the opening of Galaxy's Edge! Noah (DS) - Will be 15 months old when we go. 1st visit. Loves animals, Iggle Piggle and going on adventures. I'm absolutely convinced that he's going to love it there as he has thoroughly enjoyed visits to Alton Towers, Drayton Manor, Chessington and Legoland! We will also be going with our two friends Hannah (25) and T (28). Two absolute legends and adopted Aunties to Noah. The Plans We are flying out with British Airways (got bargain flights for £350pp!) on the 11th August - 31st August. We are so excited about the opening of Galaxy's Edge and will be braving it on the second day of opening. Wish us luck First 6 nights @ Disney's Old Key West with the DDP. Next 8 nights @ Ramada Gateway Kissimmee. Next 4 nights @ Universal's Endless Summer Surfside Inn. Last 2 nights @ Disney's All Star Music. We also have Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party booked for opening night. So excited! We’re going as Bo, Woody and Buzz from TS4 Food Plans We have our table service restaurants booked for our first week in Disney. We will be going to... Be Our Guest (Lunch) Ohana (Dinner) Teppan Edo (Dinner) Boma (Dinner) Storybook Dining with Snow White (Dinner) Be our Guest (Breakfast) Garden Grill (Breakfast) Coral Reef Restaurant (Dinner) The other eats will be what we feel like on the day, although I am wanting to try Woody's Lunchbox and to get the orange chicken from Lotus Blossom Cafe because, to me, it is Heaven on a plate! We're also wanting to get something from Galaxy's Edge but we wont be on the dining plan at this point (and the queues might be around 17 years long), so we'll see. Will and I are pretty rubbish at eating greens so please excuse the lack of veg on our plates Noah, however, did Baby Led Weaning and is an absolutely amazing little eater. He will probably share our meals as he doesn’t eat a huge amount and we find the portion sizes in the USA rather large! Somewhere to put the green stuff - sorted! Now, let's talk about the most important thing of all. SNACKS. All of the snacks. The hubby and I have 24 snack credits to use between us and we have decided to share things in order to try more. So far, these are the ones that we want to get... Tried before and loved... Cream Cheese Pretzel Dole Whip Carrot Cake Cookie All new and wanting to try... Cinnamon Roll from Gaston's Tavern Woody's Lunchbox Tart - Hazelnut Cookie Num Num Key Lime Pie on a Stick Pulled Pork Mac and Cheese Halloween Snacks at the Party Poutine Castle Cupcake Cookies and Cream Funnel Cake Churro Ice Cream Sandwich Night Blossom Drink Blueberry Mousse from Satuli We recently bought All Day Dining for our SeaWorld day so that's one day that we don't need to account for. The rest of the holiday will be done a little more carefully financially and we will be eating at places such as Denny's, IHOP, Culvers etc. Hoping to get a trip into Sugar Factory too. Righty, I think that's pretty much it so far! I shall be updating as I think of more and will then try and do live updates whilst we're there. Thanks for reading (if you got this far!) Update - 14/7/18 I’ve bought a Landry’s Card so we’ve booked dinner at Rainforest Cafe at AK and we’re having dinner at Bubba Gumps! Pretty excited about these! We’re also looking forward to eating some of the amazing snacks on offer on the first day of the EPCOT Food and Wine festival!
