I am so sorry but I am totally laughing out loud at this:

This sounds so much like me, my hubby and my Mum, if we were ever to go on holiday together, which we wouldn't because we can't be in each other's company for more than 5 minutes without wanting to kill each other

I'm so sorry the day ended this way. It does sound like it spiralled totally out of control and, like you say, you probably should have stuck with the original plan. We all have episodes like this, hopefully you could get past it and move on.

Whenever I see a review of Mama Melrose the food always looks really good and I think how much I would like to eat there, then I check out the menu and struggle to find something I would like. So I guess I am destined to just always have food envy at other people's food reviews of that place.

Looking forward to more, I am loving how quickly you are posting the updates.

Hurrah you've begun!

The meal on pre travel day looked lovely in spite of the silly server having a spat over Pepsi!

Chicken Guy has been getting some great reviews and I'm keen to try it out. I now know not to have the chicken tenders though! It's a shame you didn't enjoy them.

Wow, you did well to get all the photos of the buffet at the wave. It sounded like this was a hit. Followed by lunch at Mama Melrose. I'm chuckling that you had to convince the others they were supposed to order an appetizer, I imagine they were still stuffed after the buffet breakfast, but they were troupers and went ahead with it. Nice that the server gave you the choice of ordering a flat bread to go instead.

Oh dear, the evening didn't quite go to plan. It all sounds a bit hectic at the food court and way too complicated for the evening. We found the same thing when we went to Blaze on day 1 as we just felt like we couldn't decide what to get and there were so many choices...and that was just 1 counter of options, if we'd been faced with all the options you had then there's no way we'd have avoided a meltdown. Even though we felt alright and didn't think we were jet lagged I think we were really.

I'm looking forward to reading all the rest of your adventures.

Xx

We had a similar experience in the food court at POR on arrival evening on our first trip - there were people everywhere, different counters, didn't understand the QSDP and we all wanted different food! I found it so stressful we avoided it for the rest of the first week

The breakfast offerings at at The Wave look fantastic, very fresh.

4 portions of fries lol! Oh dear, why didn't everyone just wait for you to split the food. After all, you are the chief planner and nothing should be eaten without your say so. I do hope your companions learn the rules soon Seriously though, its a shame it ended up being so stressful for you and that no-one really enjoyed the food.

Oh poor you. Mountain of fries and no one eating!
Wave looks great- May consider that for a breakfast.

Love the idea of eating a meal in each of the deluxe resorts on the monorail.

I’m sorry you had a bad experience at AoA but can I say I’m glad someone else had a family tiff on their trip?!

Look for that coming in my trip report

I sooo want to have breakfast at The Wave now! I feel like we’ve been trying for 3 years so it’s definitely on the list next year. Maybe on a “rest” day.

I like Mama Melrose but Marie said it was just ok. Probably cos she got a boring plate of pasta in a tomato sauce and I got the steak. We were also served the trio of desserts as it was the Fantasmic! package and they weren’t great. Sounds like dessert is not something they do well.

Your evening at Landscape of Flavours sounds like something that would happen to us! Marie also doesn’t share food but more for Joey reasons.
