    MK Holiday Pop-up Dinner Buffets

    In the last few years MK has offered dinner buffets (sometimes as last minute offers) where they take counter service locations usually run seasonally and flip them in the evening to buffets. I recall this was done at Tomorrowland Terrace a few times, and we enjoyed one two years ago at Tortuga...

    [Help] Disney Culinary essays

    Hello WDWMagic, I am Gbruenin's son and currently in my local community college's culinary program. Around the end of our program, we need to hand in an essay or two about anything culinary related. My idea for the essays were about the ins and outs of the Food and Wine Festival, as well as a...

    California Grill - 12/30 and 12/31...What's happening?

    I had quite a surprise trying to make an online reservation for Cali Grill for 12/30. Looked like there was an opening, booked it, got to the 'give us a credit card to hold' and found they wanted $2300 against the reservation (for 4 of us). I looked a LOT closer, and saw the system pushed the...

    New Years Eve Phased Closing @ Epcot

    It looks like I'll get to fulfill a 25+ year wish of being at WDW for New Years Eve! Yes, I know it will be crazy, but I'm actually looking forward to experiencing it. What I don't know is how much of a problem it is for phased closings at Epcot. I understand it happens at MK, but I'm not...

    MK fireworks sight lines from outside the park

    I' m in need of the 'experts' here regarding viewing the MK fireworks. The wife has a milestone birthday coming up in Jan where we'll be at WDW, and I'm thinking about a mini party where we can view the fireworks and have cake/drinks. Obviously the beach at the Poly comes to mind, along with...

    Multiple PhotoPass cards on a single Photo CD?

    Thought I should go to the team for help here. We'll be at WDW last weekend of April with our son's high school band, performing over a few days. There is potential for a number of kids/parents to have PhotoPass shots taken. Will the PhotoPass Photo CD folks allow me to consolidate...

    What's up with the Holiday Inn on Hotel Plaza Blvd

    Does anyone know the status of the Holiday Inn? Over lots of years I've stayed in that building quite a few times....as Howard Johnson's, and as Marriott Courtyard. I recall it had just changed flags to Holiday Inn when the hurricane storms blew through a few years ago, with this building...

    4th of July Weekend Fireworks

    Are the July 4th fireworks run only on the 4th, or do they run for the evenings over the weekend as well? Specifically, will the holiday fireworks also run on the 5th? We're traveling in by car, getting in to 'the world' late afternoon on the 5th, and hoping we can make the quick dash to the...

    Port Orleans - Riverside or French Quarter?

    Hi folks, We're planning the summer trip now, and trying to decide on a moderate. The kids suggested Coronado Springs, which we've stayed at before, but I'm considering Port Orleans as they've never been there (the wife and I did for an anniversary weekend some time ago at Dixie Landings...

    Not-so-obvious WDW Activities

    We're planning to be in 'the world' at the end of April and I'm looking for some of the not-well-known activities for the family. Most folks know of things like the Luau, Backyard BBQ, backstage tours. I'm looking for some of the things that one would need to be 'in the know' to learn...

    Where's Roy?

    With the Disney/Pixar announcements, along with the discussion of the role of John Lassieter and the departure of David Stainton from WDFA, it seems like the universe is back in order, but has anyone heard/seen anything from Roy Disney on this news? This would seem to be exactly what he...

    Thanksgiving Day Meals

    Last year, for the first time, we spend Thanksgiving Day at the Magic Kingdom. For our turkey dinner, we managed to score seating at Cinderella's Royal Table, and I was somewhat disappointed in that I expected real turkey, and got a turkey-loaf thing. I realize they prepare for lots of...
