My OH is not much of a breakfast fan at all so over the years I've become less & less of a breakfast eater.

I love reading your reports and living vicariously through you guys. Some of your breakfasts have been amazing.

That waffle stack you put a link to looks great.

Saw you in the distance last year at Royal Pacific walking past the pool. We are having a week at POFQ, first time on site, from 23 August on free QSDP (your food reports have been a fantastic help to us). We are going to MK on 24th so you will probably be coming into the park as we are leaving! (Don’t do late nights as have two daughters with disabilities). Have a great holiday.

Firstly I just want to say thank you for all your trip/dining reports. I love them and they are a great source of info for our trips. Re the Perkins - the one on Sandlake/I drive.. It's ok. Breakfast was good but we went late afternoon once and it took ages to get served and it was half empty. Feels like it needs a refurb but food was fine. We prefer the one on 535 near Vineland x

Hurrah, I do love your trip reports. Wow, Anna is year 7, how did that happen? My youngest is year 6 and so off to secondary school in September, Max the eldest is now year 9 and much taller than me, in fact nearly as tall as DH.

As far as your brekkie options, they all look fab. The Perkins you are planning to go is the one we visited last summer I think as I'm pretty sure it's the one near the Rosen Inn International and opposite the huge McDonald's (I'm rubbish with the road names!). Anyway if I'm thinking about the same one then it was pretty standard Perkins, food was good, our server was so lovely though really nice and friendly calling us all honey and I really liked her! I can't remember her name now...

I hope you have an awesome trip, not long on the countdown now, I don't like wishing away the weeks but oh how I'd love the countdown to hurry up!

Delighted to see this. I love your reports too. We are going in July. Have you bought any groupons this time around.

Glad to see you have another trip soon and another great report for us! We are staying at Cabana Bay in October for a week so I'll be looking out for all the places you go to in or near Universal. I already have a few on my list from your previous reports.

Really pleased to see your pre trippy. We fly out on the 18th into Miami, so we will be hot on your heels. No Disney for us this year either, we will be mooching around Universal, probably mostly at the HP stuff as ds10 adores it. We have bought the HHaGG voucher again but we have only ever had dinner there, but might go for breakfast this year instead. We are on a $100 per day dining budget too, but this year I have bought quite a lot of e-gift cards on amazon.com, so a lot of our food will be paid for. I guess we can still use vouchers etc with these, as they are the same as cash, so following this thread for lots of your tips. Thanks for taking the time to share with us.

Really looking forward to reading this. Your reports are always the best Have you done August before? Our trip next year in May will probably be our last that time of year so future trips will probably be August as well.
