FYI free dining is not available for port orleans riverside or french quarter.
has anyone tried applying fall room discount to their existing fall reservation? Anyone having any problems?

Weird question- Is their real cream for purchase at the resort? I love having coffee in my room but can’t stand the fake creamer you get.
No, all the Make-Your-Own options were gradually removed about a month or two ago. Now that the changes have settled down, I've got to do an update on the menus on my site, which should be up sometime tomorrow.

I wish they would stop removing things from the menu.
Me too. Removing something to add something else is not adding, it's just replacing. Especially when it's a really popular item like the Create-Your-Own Pasta.
Same with theme park rides, they are not 'adding' a new Guardians of the Galaxy ride, they had to remove Universe of Energy first (don't get me started on that!). Sometimes they do actually add things though, such as the Tron coaster in MK and the new Ratatouille ride in the France pavilion.

We are finally coming back to Riverside in October. Just wondering if Riverside Mill still has the Create Your Own Pasta?
Bummer!Read the few posts above yours, it's gone I'm afraid.

When we went end of May the lines did not move any quicker, because they had fewer employees manning the stations. This seems more like a cost-cutting measure. One morning I wanted to get the Chicken & Biscuit, but the queue was so long at the grill station with only ONE person working the line. I felt sorry for the poor woman. She was working as quickly as she could, but having to assemble breakfast sandwiches, plate and serve by herself was ridiculous. I wound up going to the omelette station to save time. That went very quickly, since they only had to plop rubbery pre-made omelettes on plates. Waffle station was also slow, with only one employee serving. If the concern is moving lines along, they should have an assembly line set up with at least 2 employees, each adding components and moving people down. Instead, it's just a clog up. Eliminating create your own entrees at dinner to save time makes no sense. People generally aren't in a big rush at those times and would prefer quality and choice over a few extra minutes of waiting. Hopefully Disney pays attention to the negative feedback and improves the situation soon.I wish they would stop removing things from the menu. I understand they are trying to make things quicker to ease the long lines. I just wish there was a different way.
I find the new rooms very unattractive. The window curtains do not match and that blue trim is just terrible. The framing around the mirrors is cheap trim I’ve seen at Home Depot. Someone really screwed up here.Woah does anyone else find the refurbished rooms wholly unattractive? Yikes. We have 7 nights booked over NYE and I’m seriously considering a change.

Are there any 5th sleepers in Magnolia Bend or are they all in Alligator Bayou?
I hadn't had a make your own salad in a few years, and I will admit that when I did have one a few times it was very good. However, back when I tried them a few years ago I would only do it if there was either no line or 1 person in line. If there was a line It would take FOREVER! And if someone was ordering more than one salad . So when we went over New Years last year I have to admit I wasn't surprised to see them gone. I'm not saying I thought it was a good change, but I'm just saying I wouldn't have been able to eat them anyway unless i wanted to eat after everyone else was done because of the line. Also, with 4 kids and allergies, we didn't have time or enough adults to wait at multiple stations, so in the end it didn't make a difference to us. However, in contrast, I never felt that the make your own pasta took much if any longer than just having set pasta choices, so I don't see why they got rid of that. Make your own is pretty much always a better option than just having 1 or 2 set options.No, all the Make-Your-Own options were gradually removed about a month or two ago. Now that the changes have settled down, I've got to do an update on the menus on my site, which should be up sometime tomorrow.
