Agree, it's the water.

Yep you have Pepe's, Sally's and Modern (my boss loves this). We have a few decent places in Stamford too!!

Our routine is to always go to DTD, now Disney Springs on arrival day, so we could be rested to hit the parks the next day. Missed out on the Balloon Ride in December, just too windy on the days we were there. Someday ... hopefully I'll get to experience it.

I booked December 2015 in October 2014. I had Disney $$$s that were going to expire in December 2014, so I wanted to get the reservation so as not to lose the $$$.

Try to go when they offer free dining. We just had that in December and it was awesome. And then whatever I charged on my Disney Visa, I paid off at the end of the trip with my gift cards that I purchased at Target, so basically I got 5% off of whatever I charged!!! And as I am a dessert...

And I'm thinking now that charging at Disney Springs parking lot might hurt their local business. Some locals may not necessary want to go into the park, but may just want to dine/shop every now and then. I know if I lived local, I'd want to do that.

A guy I used to work for 15 years or so ago would go with his family and would golf all week while the wife and kiddies went to the park. They would meet up for dinner. He was happy, they were happy. Of course, if this wife doesn't have any interest in golf, then her husband is out of luck.

Maybe do lunch if you can't get dinner? I had the turkey sandwich and it was REALLY good.

What we did this last trip was take a bus from MK to POFQ and then took the boat to DS. Figured it was the quicker than going back to our resort Coronado Springs and then catching a bus from there to DS.

Thanks. I'll try that.

It was a bit of a pain when we had to go back to our resort (Coronado Springs) and then catch a bus from there to DS. Actually one time we took the bus to POFQ and then caught the boat there to Disney Springs

I seem to think you used to be able to, but now you have to catch a bus back to your resort first, then to Disney Springs. I'm thinking maybe this is to prevent people (staying off property) from parking at Disney Springs and then catching a bus to a park, thereby avoiding the parking fee.

So we ate there on Christmas Eve and I had pasta in a cascading bowl. My DH & I want to find out the size of these bowls, so we can order them. Anyhow know how I can contact Mama Melrose directly or is someone going there soon and can ask for me? Thanks.

Then you must love Pepe's ... although my boss who lives in New Haven prefers Modern and Sally's. The best pizza I ever had was John's of Bleaker Street in Greenwich Village. And I found the pizza in Italy to be good, but tasted different at every single place I tried. We liked Via Napoli...

Columbia Harbor House gets my vote. Can't believe how good the salmon was there!!

Disney dollars built up through the last 5 years, gift cards ($900 from my boss for 3 Christmases), and cashed out well over $1000 Discover dollars and bought gift cards with those. The ones I bought just before I left was for use in spending at the parks while we were there. A lot of blood...

I posted something similar about this before, but its amazing how if you have the time (true it was 6 years since our last trip), you can go to the WORLD for practically free. My $4875 trip cost me $175 OOP. I just got a Target Red Card this past summer and just before we left, I purchased...

And I just tried it for the first time in December, loved the salmon!!

We ate at both last month, and while Mama's IMHO is better, Tony's was much better than it had been in the past.
