i'd like to begin a thread on "cheap" or inexpensive dining ideas.
we're going in april, and splurged on a 3 day cruise at the end of our stay. we need to budget, budget, buget! the beginning of our trip is 6 nights staying in a cottage/suites hotel that does have a full kitchen. ( REMEMBER, this mom is on vacation TOO!) we'll take afternoon breaks, pack snacks, etc.
Some ideas and experiences we've had in the past...
breakfast will be easy from the suite, cereal, bagels, eggs maybe.
we discovered Jungle Jim's at Crossraods last visit and greatly appreciated the $1.99 kids' meals and 1/2 price drink specials. has anyone been there recently for a price update?
also, there was a delicious italian restaurant at Crossraods, also, "paesanos" I think? We discovered that with a wdw4adults coupon back in '98. no more coupons, though. but, they were pretty reasonable as i recall.
i'm wondering about other GOOD off-site restaurants or pizza or chinese food places.
also, any few ingredient easy & quick meals to prepare at the hotel?
can't wait to hear your ideas?
thanks in advance!
