In the end eating cheep and only eating 2 table meals that week we were saving less than $50. I figured for aprox $50 we would enjoy ourselves. Now we have 6 tables reserved for the week (1 we are paying for). We will eat pretty good now! I picked some pretty cool restaurants that I normally wouldn't be able to eat at. It adds to the anticipation and enjoyment of the trip. I hope all the walking will keep me from gaining weight! Now we get appetizers, dinner, desert and the drink. I am gonna pick the better CS places too! Make the most of it!
P.S. Some friends of ours just got back and they have two kids. They stayed about 5 nights and spent over $600. They only eat 2 times at TS places.
Check out the menu's for yourself. Average adult CS is $8-10+ and kids $6-8. Don't forget to add tax and tips that the plan would pay for.  |
I agree, we did the math and for few dollars more than eating burgers and fries every day we can eat at a nice restaurant every evening!
Just one meal at Le Cellier can save our group of four $160 off the sticker price! Those of you doing calculations remember you have to add at least 22.5% in tax and tip to those table service menu prices...
