If you have thought about taking advantage of the $100 discount on APs, there is a wonderful dining plan (DDE) available that is the biggest discount I have seen on site. I don't particularily think the existing dining plan is an economical choice for everyone.
I agree with this. We, as two adults, prefer full service meals, and usually have 2 lighter full service meals per day...unless we are at AK or DtD...then we have counter meals...
Anyway, it is rare that we we both order appetizers, beverages, entrees, and dessert at any meal. Usually we have a soup or salad apperizer and an entree each, or we order appetizers, split an entree, and order desserts. Our beverage choice is usually, but not always, water (coffee for breakast). We has several meals at Chefs de France and one meal at Calif Grill, so we didn't eat at the "less expensive" full service restaurants.
On our last trip, in June of this year, we ate where we wanted, and what we wanted. Including gratuities, it still worked out a little cheaper than the MYW meal plan would have. We used the DDE as we usually spend 20 days onsite throughout the year.
