I’d love to go to CG in Jan, The Wave had my favorite breakfast buffet on property. I think I’ll throw it into my plans and hope it’s still there. 😃

When they announced The Wave refurb, I remember that it seemed like it would be down for my trip which includes 9/2 so I believe it will still be going on then.

What are the odds this refurb is still going on first week of September? I just booked Wave reservation for 9/2. Hoping for the best!

Oh I knew that! Sorry for the confusion. Yeah, the in-park options are a near copy/paste at every QS or sit down location. Typical amusement park fare. Theme and variety be damned.

I understand that. what I’m saying is when the dining plan was pushed…they did sweeping cost cutting methods at every restaurant. Part of the point of the dining plan. It effected everyone…to this day

Up until circa 2000…each sit down had specific dishes/styles almost all are gone - from Disney run locations… bulk buying in ingredients is the likely culprit. Like Chilies

No. Never did the dining plan thing. Didn't see the value in it. A comped breakfast would have convinced me otherwise.

SirwalterraleighJul 13, 2021

They did… …it was streamlined out with the dining plan. you hadn’t noticed?

I wish all on-property dining and QS restaurants would serve varying types of breakfast meals based on locale and theming. Seems like a missed opportunity for the Mouse to make money and eat up some guests that would otherwise be riding attractions in the AM. A good offset if they were to bring back Extra Magic Hours.

The view from California Grill with the breakfast from The Wave? We're booked. YUM.

This sounds awesome!! We're in town until Saturday morning, but nothing available our last day. I wish I was still a local 🤣

This is a pretty deep hack. Good share!
