    Dinner reservations for The Plaza in MK

    I'll be going to the Magic Kingdom in a few weeks and was thinking about trying The Plaza Restaurant for the very first time (which is crazy to think about considering I've been going to the MK for decades). Anyhow, my wife and I would be going for dinner and I've been trying to make a...

    Future Canada?

    Sticking with the food theme for Canada, as someone who visited and LOVED going to Canada (Montreal) for the first time, I personally would love to see a Canadian Maple Delights shop go in. This is a small chain with about five locations in Canada. It's a shop that serves a delicious array of...

    Activation of FL Resident tickets

    Ah, that would make sense. At least one is able to make FB plans before the day of the visit, so that's good. Thanks for the info!

    Activation of FL Resident tickets

    I've been going to WDW for many, many years but this is the first time I've specifically purchased FL Resident tickets. I recently purchased a couple of 4-day FL Resident Discovery tickets, and the receipt said I would need to pick them up as will-call at a ticket booth to verify that I was...

    Cupcakes at MK (other than Main St. Bakery)?

    Thanks to all for the info and links...they were interesting to read even if some were not as current. I think my wife and I are still heartbroken the most over the cake cups from Cheshire Cafe being removed and doubt we'll find a comparable replacement :)

    Cupcakes at MK (other than Main St. Bakery)?

    Thank you for the info! As many times as we've been to MK we've never been in there, but we will definitely check it out next time. Thanks! :)

    Cupcakes at MK (other than Main St. Bakery)?

    Ever since they got rid of the cake cups at Cheshire Café, it seems like my wife and I have been hard-pressed to find any kind of cake-like desserts at the Magic Kingdom. I know there’s the Main St. Bakery, but that’s such a hassle and not very convenient to back-track to once one is already in...

    Fireworks during Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party (for CG)

    This is sort of a crossover thread between general and dining, but I thought I'd post here first since it's mostly about fireworks in the MK. I'd like to go for dinner at California Grill mid-December and it looks like the only nights my wife and I can take off together are the same nights that...

    Morimoto Asia 2017?

    A second vote to check out the OpenTable site or app. I've regularly seen reservations there when the MDE showed nothing available for places like Raglan Road, The Boathouse and Morimoto Asia. I don't know if these restaurants adhere to the 180 day rule, so I can't comment on that aspect. Good...

    Will Epcot be pronounced dead soon?

    Being a teen at the time, I was thoroughly awe-struck with the original Epcot. And as much as I miss Horizons, World of Motion, Imagination, etc., I also realize those specific attractions couldn't be around forever. And while there is a sense of nostalgia for those first attractions, the...

    Favorite Treat at the Disney Parks?

    Things that immediately come to mind: Nutella waffle at MK (at Sleepy Hollow) Cheshire Cafe cake cups at MK (SO, SO, SO sad they are gone!) Churros at Mexico/Epcot Croissant donut at the Refreshment Port as you enter Epcot's World Showcase Box of assorted macarons (and almost every other...

    MK Crowds during Night of Joy

    Thanks for the answer...that's kind of what I was thinking. I agree that the restaurant will only have 'X' number of people dining in it regardless, but since we also enjoy walking around other areas of the hotel, visiting the arcade and walking around the shops and concourse, I wondered the...

    MK Crowds during Night of Joy

    I was thinking of either going to the MK or having a nice dinner at California Grill for my birthday, and made plans to go on 9/9, which was the one day my wife and I could both take off together. However, while checking out crowd calendars I read where Night of Joy is also taking place that...

    Why All the Vitriol Against Disney?

    Epcot being my favorite park, this topic comes up often and I've written about this so much and at such length at times in the past that I've probably bored some people to tears :) I've basically learned to make my responses concise without going on and on and on and on and...on, yet always...

    Why All the Vitriol Against Disney?

    I could write an entire dissertation about this; I too am a local who went to WDW quite often because my dad is a CM (and has been for over 20 years). I've basically come to terms with beloved rides and attractions either having been removed or changed, but that is just a small part of the...

    CM complimentary ticket question

    Just a little follow-up to my recently having used CM comp tickets to get into the park... The tickets ended up being printed off well in advance of the date we used them with no problem. As long as you don't lose the tix and use them before the expiration date there's no fee or anything. We...

    CM complimentary ticket question

    Thanks for the input, but if this is how they work now it would almost make the concept of complimentary tickets seem pointless. I know that when CMs take and get people in on their gate/family passes the CM has to be present and the CM is supposed to accompany the guests in the park, but this...

    CM complimentary ticket question

    Thank you for confirming what I was pretty much thinking. It just didn't make sense to have to print the comp tickets on the same day they are used. It would make it difficult to give to people and/or for those people to link to make FP plans, arrangements. etc. What my dad might be thinking is...

    CM complimentary ticket question

    Greetings to all, My dad has been a CM for many years and in the past he has given me some of his complimentary tickets to use for park admission. These are the limited comp tickets CMs receive several times a year that are printed off from the employee HUB. I haven't used a comp ticket in a...
