For the February BDay trip:

Sat - 50's Prime Time
Sun - Rose & Crown
Mon - Mama Melrose
All favorites except MM which will be our first time.
Still working on the ADRs for May at SSR.
Well, made the ADR's for the May trip. Since we drive and have the 2 bed room Condo and Full Kitchen at SSR, we only booked two. We always eat at EOS at DD, but we cook to save the cash. Worked at well last year when at VWL.
Fulton's Crab House
Yak & Yeti
First time for both.
Thanks nikkithepooh! We are excited about both. But we are doing dinner at both. I am not a big lunch person and tend to just have a snack for lunch and get the kids and DW QS. Or back at Resort. I know it's expensive but, we will have Disney Reward Dollars to use and another reason we are only doing two ADRs. Let's us splurge on the ones we pick.

Thursday @ Columbia Harbour House -- I know, not an ADR, but pfttt, (with an earlier stop at the Yak & Yeti take-out for some mango pie, even if it doesn't have the sauce)!!! Friday @ Sci Fi for lunch, then a pick 'em at Epcot World Showcase for counter service !!!! Saturday @ Kona Caf (with an earlier visit to Sleep Hallow for a chicken/waffle sandwich)!!!!! I'm going to miss having more opportunities to eat at the nice Disney restaurants, but there's always next year.

We are so excited about going. There are a few new restaurants we plan to try as well as some old favorites. All ADR's have been made where possible. We are trying Yachtsman for the first time instead of Le Cellier. DW also wants to try Via Napoli and Ragland Road. LTT for lunch is new, have had dinner there before. Thinking about all this food is making me hungry for it. Enjoy!
Still have several weeks so this may change but our initial plan for 15 day is....
Crystal Palace lunch (tradition) DS choice
Teppan Edo (dinner) DDs favourite
Sci-Fi Diner (lunch) DDs choice
Be Our Guest (dinner) new to us, DDs choice
Raglan Road (dinner) DHs choice
Kouzzina (dinner) new to us, DHs choice
Rose and Crown (dinner) my choice, partly for Illuminations convenience
Boma (dinner) my choice
Ohana (dinner) my choice
Mama Melroses (dinner) best of poor DHS pickings for Fantasmic package
Garden Grill (dinner) DS choice
Artist Point (dinner) new to us, DHs choice
Coral Reef (lunch) DS choice
1900 Park Fare (breakfast) DS choice. He is more into the food than the characters here!
So what do you think?

Nice selections, Scoobydooby! I see you've been able to somewhat limit your buffets!
Have you done Saana yet? And you know Artist's Point is a signature (2 credits), right?
When my sister and I went to Kouzzina we didn't have the greatest service, but hopefully that is a problem they've since corrected. (At one point, we got some attention only because one of the chef's was dining with her mother and uncle, and we were right in her line of sight. I don't know if SHE said something to a server, or if a server noticed and didn't want her to notice that we were well done eating and hadn't had our plates cleared.) This was a few years back, though.

Yes I know about 2 credits at Artist Point. This is one concession to me and DH really! Sanaa is a thought. We have access to a lot of great curry in the UK but that menu looks pretty good. And yes. Hardly any buffets left now! We do all like Crystal Palace and it has sentimental value for me too. It's also a bit of a tradition to do a character breakfast the day we fly home and DS really likes this one. It's the omelette station. I am not too set on Kouzzina but DH is. We were booked there last summer and cancelled so he's trying again!
Chris I think I am changing Boma. Not sure what to though.....maybe Sanaa. We did enjoy it several trips ago though.

Dan,
I will take my quote from my trip report back in 2011.
Boma - F - Plain and simply we hated it! Food was bland and tasteless. We are foodies and wanted to try it, heard great things, but not one of us liked it at all. I ended up getting a hamburger from Pecos Bill's later because I was so hungry. It was a beautiful place, but this one we will never go back to.
Not one of us liked the food. It was terrible. Bland, and didn't really like the selection. Service was fine and decor beautiful. Plain and simple, we hated the food. Hey just our opinion. Could they have had an off night? Sure. But hard to believe even on an off night everything would be that bad. No one in this family is ready to give it another shot right now. Too many other places to try and hit old favorites again.
As always, go with your own experience. I've had 3 meals at Boma, and every one of them was nothing short of excellent, especially the incredible soups. But if it's not working for you, there are plenty of other places to try!
The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time.

scoobydooby,
After thinking about my initial response, I think it came off a bit curse, and that was not my intent and I apologize. If you like Boma and got it, I am happy for you!! We just didn't have a good experience and that was just my opinion on the place.
Exactly Dan. I know a lot of folks love that place and have great meals. It just went real south on us. And that was our experience. And aren't you and I the only ones here that really like Coral Reef? One of our favorites and hitting it again in February.
That's no problem Actually has done me a favour as encouraged me to re look at Yak and Yeti and think we will give that a try. It's new for us and will be more convenient for our day too. I did like Boma but its not my favourite.
And if anyone had asked about Hollywood and Vine I'd have been equally as blunt!

I've done Boma once, and it was just ok. We are very adventurous eaters, so it wasn't the selection. Of course, you all know I'm not a buffet person, so that undoubtedly added to my "eh" factor. They had wonderful African hot teas, though!
Working hard for that next WDW trip!
We ate at Hollywood and Vine back in 2009. I am looking for my notes on that restaurant. I, do, remember noting that we had to ask people who were some of the characters because our children were older and did not watch Disney Jr. I also remember that it was a decent meal. Nothing great, but not bad either.
1/25 Sci Fi Cafe dinner (7:45 even though the park closes at 7!!)
1/26 Chefs de France (DH's favorite)
1/27 Yak & Yeti (fried green beans for lunch!)
