But, that being said - we don't like the food in the parks at Universal. It is mainly fast-food, counter service type thing and it is not nearly as good as WDW does it. The restaurants at Ciity Walk are great, but they are not on the meal plan (unless something has vastly changed from the last time I looked at it).
So, it is all you can eat at the counter-service locations in the park, and I believe you are limited to the ones that serve full meals (not the snack carts and stands) and I think there is also a limited menu as to what is available to you. When we do Universal we usually stay on-site and have only gone when we can afford to stay club level. So, we do breakfast there, snack mid-day and then have a nice early dinner at City Walk. We avoid counter service there.

Ok I partly agree with you. Yes City Walk has lots of great options. But since the park is only open from 9-6. I think you would just want to grab something and go fast. Obviously, this 20.00 plan won't be for everyone. But it is a great option for some. I personally don't want to eat Counter food all day. It gets old really fast. So that is why we are going to Universal on Friday then we have all of our adrs set in Disney. I would rather spend money in WDW.
