E-book suggestion About This Page:

[disneyfan822]

Hi,
Just wondering if an e-book dedicated solely to the many restaurants at Disneyworld would be feasible? Maybe a compilation of all of the dining options at all the parks, resorts, etc., including menus and current pricing. The synopsys in the Passporter is great, but having the entire menu handy would be wonderful when deciding on dining reservations, or for last minute dining decisions when vacationing.

that doesn't sound shabby. Good idea. make sure you go in and suggest that in the club.

I love that idea. Dining is my 2nd favorite thing at Disney. (characters is number 1)

[elizabeth shannon]

GREAT suggestions. This would be my no.1 download if it was available!

I volunteer to check out the restaurants and write the reviews

Seriously thought, Jennifer & Dave, if you are looking for volunteers I would love to be involved in producing this ebook!

Fab suggestion.

I love this idea, I love to eat Disney food. I'd volunteer too.

This is a great idea. I was looking for something like this. Searching from site to site for the most updated info is getting old!

What a great idea. I like more in depth information, too. And menus would be really nice.

Oh man... This is a fabulous idea!! This would be my favorite e-book ever! LOL I'm such a foodie!

While I love to browse through menus online during my planning, it would be even better to have an e-book that already has all the info. in it. Having to click on each one and print them out manually is such a pain sometimes! Sometimes it's nice to just have all the menus right in front of you, if you're tired of sitting at the computer or going from site to site or something. If there was an e-book with menus, I could just print it out and carry it around with me in my PP!

You know, this would also be a great thing to actually have in the parks, too. If you did table service and counter service menu e-books separate that would be perfect. And then arrange each of those by park, resort, etc. Most people already know the TS places that they will be eating at on their trips months in advance, so that would be less likely to travel to the parks with people. (I think.) If we could just print off the CS menus, and maybe the snack cart menus, to take to the parks with us each day, it would give us the opportunity to browse a CS menu without having to walk to that location. That would be such a timesaver; very helpful!!

Hi,

I'm BRAND new and I have just spent the past three hours checking out all that is available to me. What a wonderful idea --a Dining E-book--#1 on my list as well.

Actually if you go to Disney World - The Largest Unofficial On-Line Guide to Disney World, Walt Disney World then dining then restaurant or menus - its all there - the work, reviews and everything has been well researched

While I love the ebooks - i hate the inefficient use of paper for those of us who are not cutting them to size and placing into a passporter binder - any chance the ebooks could be formatted for standard printing as well (just a thought - less paper)

Have a magic day. Cheers.

In Adobe I'm able to tell it to print to fit page. and it prints in 8.5x11 format, which I love, as I keep everything in notebooks. It an option I can set on the print menu.

Yes, I agree.
So many of us seem to plan our visits around our ADRs, it would be great to have not just the menus but descriptions, photos, substitution / allergy flags and ratings. I would also really love to see reservation on-time performance, suitability for special events, what can the place do for birthdays, total cost per child / adult. As PassPorter has pointed out, since the dining plan has changed, it will be harder to make it a financial 'win' to get it. So, we need as much GOOD information as possible!
Thank you, PassPorter!

[bitterchickey]

In total agreement with you!!! After printing up my own binder of menus from allears.net, I too would put this #1 on my ebook list. Great suggestion!

[dgauthier]

I think it is a great idea but the only down side to it is how often the menus change. That would be a great deal of time just to maintain the new updates. check out allears.net they have a wonderful dinning site with current menus and reviews for all of WDW eateries.

Just an FYI... In the local bookstore, I noticed that the Birnbaum guidebook series now has a WDW 2008 dining guide. Also, over at miceage.com, one of the frequent contributors, Kevin Yee, has written his own unofficial guide on this topic. He is a former DL cast member who has worked in DL restaurants (and who has since relocated to Florida where he writes about WDW).

I am just offering the above info as info, not as an endorsement. I have neither read nor am I affiliated with either of the two books mentioned above.
