Yeah, a new TR to follow! Looking forward to your review of Bistro - we loved it when we ate there, in 1994!

Another trip already? Just kidding! Can't wait to hear all about it!

We stayed at CSR several years ago and loved it! I think it is my favorite moderate. The Bar area is very cool, but we didn't eat in the sit down restaurant. I think my parents have in the past and liked it.

So I did something interesting when I was making my dining reservations for this trip. I'm sure I posted it in my One More Disney Day PTR, but since I'm going to ask for feedback, I'm going repost my methodology. I specified a reservation time for a meal and then I selected the first restaurant that came up on the list that I hadn't been to.

As of right now my ADRs look like this:

Moday: Bistro de Paris

Tuesday: Akershus Royal Banquet Hall

Wednesday: Cape May Cafe

Thursday (lunch): Grand Floridian Cafe

I may add lunch on Tuesday or Wednesday and I'm thinking about canceling Cape May Cafe to add Maya Grill. I don't think I'll be back at CSR any time soon, so I thought I should check it out. I'll definitely be checking out the new breakfast buffet option at the Pepper Market.

Restaurant Roulette! I like it. Great way to make yourself try some new places. I'm always saying I'll do that and then can't resist revisiting the tried and true.
