I'm not sure if this promotion is out yet or not. We got the Kids Play Free package and bought the Dining Plan. I think it's just because dinner is now 2 credits and lunch is still one. The menu is very close, so lunch times will be hard to get and dinners will be a lot easier.
Unless you like salty steak I would give it a miss Nacler. We had a ressie for Valentine,s day evening appetizer was great, the Kansas strip steak was so salty I could only eat half and even that was a push but the desert was fantasic. I know we probably should have complained about the steak but I.m not that way inclined I just struggled through. I have noticed the Americans like more salt with there food so you may be okay. If I had free dining for the meal I probably wouldn't have been so miffed but I paid for it and free dining or not we will not be back to Le Cellier.

Not all Americans, Sleepy90. I personally can't stand over-salted food. I would have sent it back.

Thanks for the tip Sleepy... I went ahead and canceled the reservation as it would have really only been for me. My wife has no desire to go and the kids don't care, so I ditched it. Looks like we are going to dine with the Princesses again... and I never salt any of my food, even though my name says otherwise! haha...

You can always keep looking and if you can get in, you could order the steak, low sodium style?! ;)

With your name, I was suspecting you're the one who's over-salting the steaks at Le Cellier... :wink: :lol:

Low sodium style I don't think that would have mattered it would still have been to salty the only way to sort this is no salt I'll add my own if required.
Maybe they added extra seasoning because I asked for the steak extra well done, but I did say apologize to the chef as I know they hate to cook steak this way however I do not think so because Joe had the same problem and he had his medium rare.
The steak was beautifully cooked though and still moist even with the extra cooking time it was just the seasoning that was a problem.
I have looked forward to eating here for years the place itself had a good atmosphere and the waiting staff are really friendly and of course the company was top notch.

Appears we will be there at the same time. We are at the Poly 4-9, then flying to Barcelona. Enjoy your trip!
Step out to your left please. When the car stops, step out to your left.

Sounds like a perfectly good reason to go to Europe to me.

This is a tricky post . . . please understand that I am not being boastful, but I know that many of you can share in the excitement.

53 days until a long weekend Easter visit to WDW...
Then Destination D weekend at WDW in mid-May...
Then Hong Kong Disneyland in early July...
Then Tokyo Disneyland in mid-July...
Then D23 Expo and Disneyland CA for a few days in August...

One can only hope that I will not be "Disneyed Out" by September.

I don't see it as being boastful! Many of us will live vicariously through your reports! The Destination D trip in May... is that for the scavenger hunt?

Sorry, Moonpet, but in order to complete your global Disney trip you need to do Disneyland Paris in September. :wink:
