This is the 2nd time we used plan. Back in 06, you got an appetizer dessert and included tip. Not this time. The price increased and you got less. After researching total costs, we felt it was still the way to go. You get so much food that a lot of it is wasted. I think there should be more options with plans so you can chose different packages. I hated figuring tips in my budget and actually didn't budget enough so had to dip into spending budget. Not sure if will use next year or not.
Pros:
convenient saves moneyCons:
doesnt include appetizers or tipsReview of Casey's Corner

Wanted to try Casey's since last visit my mom traveled with us and loves hot dogs. We waited for an outside table and took turns ordering. Was disappointed that they didn't have kids meals option for dining plan so had to pay for meal. Liked the fixings bar but was rather small and only one person could use at a time and a young teen was very pushy reaching over me to get ketchup and almost caused a spill. The buns are huge but the hot dogs aren't just typical. Tried it but probably won't be back ended up eating fast so that a family with a handicapped child could have our table instead of eating on the sidewalk.
Pros:
nice location hot dogsCons:
seating no kids mealsReview of Animator's Palate - Disney Dream

Of the three restaurants, our family loved this one the most! The atmosphere is so much fun! We loved talking to Crush and watching the other sea animals on the screens. We ate here on Pirate Night so that added to the fun. We also enjoyed the food here the most! Loved it!

Last year we went here and it was our favorite. This year we were seated in front of a pole smashed in between several tables. The waitress didn't come near us for a 15 minutes from the time we were seated. We had to ask for bread. I ordered a fish dish that was 2 scallops and 3 shrimps with mushy potatoes. My coffee was cold and it took ten minutes to get cream. Not sure what happened but not going back!
Pros:

Had scheduled 180days for 10am on 3/18. Had breakfast at Crystal Palace earlier and walked around castle before ressies. Had purchased Cinderella dress from Disney store using discount offer. Had called a week prior to confirm and had some ?s. Asked if could bring hair extension since DD4 had very thin hair was told yes and ordered the courtyard pkg included hair tshirt tutu cinch bag for $89. Arrived on time a grandma was arguing about getting her two granddaughters in without ressies so it took a few minutes to be waited on. I know people might think they can just walk up and expect service but come on this is Disney I called 180Days to get get ressie. They called my DD in and they asked what pkg I requested was told that with courtyard you get a certain hairstyle not to my liking we wanted princess style but wanted the tshirt. So found out I could get princess hair nails makeup and buy tshirt for total of $49. You couldn't get the tutu but had skirts with us to use that matched the t shirt perfectly. I was pleased as I saved money. We had fairy godmother Daisy she said she makes magic happen so she didn't need the extension. She did I was so surprised. My only complaint was there was no where to sit because the lol girls around us had their entire families with them fathers brothers grandmas etc I had to stand the entire time also the photographer was walking around the room taking pics but was missing lots of moments. I even said that I had the photopass+. I did take my own pics though. I did tip as the overall experience was wonderful and my lol girl truly felt like Cinderella. When checking out a nice gentleman told us to go next door to get a photo session. I didn't know what to expect and thought I would need ressies but we walked right in and she posed and took about 10 pics closeups and all the bonus they were put on the photopass+ no charge then you can edit them to add enhancements. Hairstyle lasted 3 days glitter a week after many washings. Will do again
