[QUOTE="Mickeyboof, post: 10130967, member: 121378"] 1- Tickets + Park Reservations should absolutely be made asap, as you are. The Reservation system is a real buzzkill, but what can ya do! 2- Park Hopper is a favorite ticket type for many, including myself, however 2 Days at each park should provide plenty of time. You’ll most likely experience most of DCA, however Disneyland is still challenging to “complete” in even 2 days. This question is relative based on your interests. 3- Genie+, eh… maxpass wasn’t necessary because paper fastpass was, well, free! Genie+ only allows you to do a ride ONCE + doesn’t include the marquee attractions, it is completely worthless to me. You might make great use of the service if the crowds are high. I’d suggest making that decision when you get there. 4- Sunday at Disneyland is the way to go, crowds or not, if you want to soak up nighttime spectaculars! We haven’t gotten solid schedules for returning shows, but weekdays in May most often have little-to-no nighttime shows. 5- I’d say Rope Drop once at Disneyland and once at DCA, then sleep in for the next two days! Rope Drop at Disneyland is quite fun, but staying out late is even more exciting! 6- Rise of the Resistance should be regular standby line, but be aware if often doesn’t open with the park (also Rise might close early too!). Boarding Groups and Virtual Queues are not longer haunting us, thought they might make an appearance per day/situation if the crowd level is out of this world. 7- Disneyland Table Service- *Carnation Cafe is a Main Street treat, Fried Pickles + Milkshakes under the Carnation Cafe umbrellas on Flower Street are my arrival-day tradition. Reservations most likely required. *Cafe Orleans is an absolute must. Pomme Frites and the deep-fried Monte Cristo is a Disneyland mainstay. Reservation Required, though the sneaky walkups do become available throughout the day! *River Belle Terrace is a real gem, and in my opinion, tragically underrated!! Southern style comfort food (think Burnt Ends Grilled Cheese or Catfish) with pudding and money bread deserts! The interior is simple and understated. The restaurant magically exists between both Adventureland and Frontierland, but the contradiction is masterfully calibrated. Reservations usually never required, walk up is often available for immediate seating, or 40 minutes at most. 8- Disneyland Quick Service- Rancho del Zocalo. The patio view of Big Thunder makes this a truly relaxing place to relax, especially at twilight! Docking Bay 7. The dishes are quite elevated for a Quick Service. There is a patio adjacent to the entrance that is just lovely to enjoy your meal at. 9- Bars- Oga’s Cantina, of course, at Disneyland! Trader Sam’s at the Disneyland Hotel is absolutely WONDERFUL and far from the busy parks! Ballast Point is a real palate cleanser. Brewery with some cocktails. Found in Downtown Disney. 10- Breakfast Using the App, I often mobile order a declious Jolly Holliday breakfast as I’m walking to the parks. At DCA, Pym’s Test Kitchen has a pretty great breakfast menu! [/QUOTE]
