Year of 100 Questions: #95

[King Triton]

Way back in Question #66, I asked you which was your favorite character meal: breakfast or dinner. I was a little surprised that breakfast won so easily. So I'm going to expand the question a little.

For which meal (both character and non-character) do you make the most advance dining reservations: Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner?

Y100Q96 will be on the Theme Park board,probably on Thursday.

Its almost time for the review of questions 81-90. There is still a poll or two open, so that will be posted either late this week or early next week.

Easily Dinner. We typically go to WDW for around 10 days. In that time we might make 2 breakfast ADR's compared to 9 or 10 Dinner ADR's. Dinner for us in a landslide

[KAT1811]

We most often do the dinners as well. The only breakfasts we do are CRT and CP because we love the princesses (with 3 princesses of our own) and we love the breakfast buffet at CP.

We feel that our time is better spent enjoying a relaxing dinner after a long day of touring the parks. When we get up in the morning we just want to grab a quick breakfast and then off we go. Too much to see and do in WDW.

We also avoid lunch ADRs because they seem to take too much touring time away. We don't take mid-day breaks, just keep on going, so our lunches are typically CS and we're off again. On the mornings that we do a breakfast ADR many times our lunch consists of ice cream, dol whips, or some other "world" snack!

Our family is populated with nightowls. It's a chore to get us up for breakfast. We occasional do CRT breakfast. At lunch we may do Crystal Palace but generally we do counter service. The food a WDW counter resturants is great and it gives us the flexibilty to be spontaneous mid-day. Our dinner ADR are usually at resort resturants.

[wedway fan]

in the past, we've only made ADR's for character meals, which for us are usually breakfast. so, i picked breakfast.

that will likely change for our trip next year, though, as it will be our first with the DDP. so for the next YO100Q poll, i'll answer dinner.

[Mickey91]

For ADRs we usually make more dinner reservations when we use the dining plan. But, without the DDP, most of our TS experience is at Breakfast.

[Becky'sMom]

For the trip we just got back from, we had 13 ADR's. 2 of those were breakfast - CRT and O'Hana. 2 were lunch - Hollywood & Vine and Akershus. The remaining 9 were dinner - Le Cellier, Fulton Crabhouse, Victoria & Albert's, Crystal Palace, Jiko, Mama Melrose, Bistro De Paris, Chef Mickey's and Boma - very fond memories - can't wait to go back!

So many great restaurants, and since breakfast is generally just eggs, ham, and toast, the best way to sample the true flavor of a restaurant is to eat dinner there.

Lunch for me so i can walk it off in the park

[Figgyluv03]

Dinner! It's a nice way to relax after a long day in the parks!

[Tynkerbelle]

It's a close call between breakfast & dinner, but I think dinner wins out. We rarely make lunch ADR's - that's when we use our counter service credits.

[LibertyTreeGal]

Except for Liberty Tree Tavern, our must do lunch, we make all of ours for dinner. We are not big breakfast eaters and we would much rather get to the parks while people are breakfast and sleeping in

[dolphinmickey9170]

I have ADR's for every nights dinner. I usually do a breakfast or two at Kona (Gotta have the tonga toast) or Boma, maybe even Cindy's. If we have a later dinner and not enough time to "walk it off" in the park, we stroll around our resort or DTD.

[Polynesian Dweller]

Dinner. Generally lunch is easier to get into a restaurant and often its counter service to save time.

[snifflesmcg]

I am in no way a breakfast person and lunch is almost just like dinner. I voted for dinner. It's my fav meal of the day.

[Lizzie]

This is our first time on the DDP and we made all our adr's for dinner except three. We tried to avoid lunch just so we would have flexability on getting back to the hotel for naps. And only a couple of breakfasts because the kids like to eat right when they get up.

[DessertDivaFL]

I picked lunch because I prefer to have a TS meal with less crowds. We make lunch the main meal and then have a lighter dinnner or just a pizza. I know I am not the norm on this but that is how we do it.

[fielin]

I voted Dinner, but Breakfasts are a close second !

In fact, I will not make an ADR for lunch, except if a specific restaurant that I really want to try is not available for breakfast or dinner.

I get lunch because I have to, so it is counter serice for me.

[avantgardeinker]

We almost always do ADR's for dinner. We don't like to eat a big, heavy meal while we're running around the parks. And it's nice to sit down around the table after a long day at the parks and reflect on the Magic of the day.

134 more days!

[WDWfeelslikehome]

Sometimes we have no idea where the day will take us, but we know where it will end. With a air conditioned sit down dinner, actually it's not the end of the day, just the beginning of the night.
