ice_creamSo it’s been decided that my wife and I are going to try to sneak over to Disney for Valentine’s Day in a couple of weeks.  We haven’t gotten to go nearly as much lately due to time constraints, and actually this will be our first visit since we went over for Christmas … wow, two months is a long stretch, let me tell you!

That said, the conundrum that I’m facing today is this – dining has become a big part of our trips as of recent because we’ve started partaking in some of the more expensive dining options around the Resort.  The trouble is, as of January 1, 2009, yours truly officially went on yet another diet of sorts and as such, we’ve come to the conclusion that we’re going to have to take it easy when it comes to eating out for a while.  Now mind you, this doesn’t necessarily mean that we’ll be packing sandwiches and steering clear of Goofy’s Candy Co. altogether next weekend, but it does mean that we’re going to attempt to cut back while we’re there and with regards to table service dining, that means one meal during our two-day visit…

And that, my friends, is my current dilema – which table service restaurant should we make reservations at for our Valentine’s Day trip??? I should probably note that it most certainly does not have to be a romantic-type restaurant for the occasion – really, we’re just looking for something new and different to try.  At the moment, here are some ideas that I’ve been entertaining:

  • T-Rex @ Downtown Disney
  • Kona Cafe @ Disney’s Polynesian Resort
  • Teppan Edo (Japan Pavilion, World Showcase) @ Epcot
  • The Wave @ Disney’s Contemporary Resort

I would say that right now I’m leaning towards either T-Rex or Kona just because I’ve wanted to try both for a while, but at this point it’s any restaurants’ game!  We’ll see what the ADR availability comes back for…

One Comment to “just one meal…”
