Ya on this plan you get 3 credits a day that you can use on either QS or TS.

Chef Mickey's is just because we're only going to be there for dinner that night, and from what I read the character interaction there is top notch.
Cinderella's is the only one that I wouldn't change. My 4 year old really wants to have dinner at the castle.
Crystal Palace is just because I wasn't sure where else to eat. It's Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party and from what I read it's harder to get a good meal during that. So we booked it right before the party starts. I ate here last trip and thought the dinner was pretty meh, but I know the kids would love meeting the Pooh characters.

You have back to back princess meals. Again, that's fine but I would consider spreading those out.

I read the food was really good at Kona's and we're doing so many character meals that I wanted a couple with top notch food. Plus my kids aren't big into Lilo & Stitch, and we'll be seeing Pluto and Mickey at Chef Mickey's. If you think it's worth doing though I'll look into it.
As for the back to back princess meals one they are at different parks on different days. Main reason we're doing the breakfast at Akershus after dinner at Cinderella's is because we can get into Epcot early. Plus both my kids are girls and love princesses. There's no concern with overload.

They are 2 and 4, and I don't think it will be an issue but I'll look into the other places. Le Cellier was 100% for me. I wanted a really good steak and heard Le Cellier is one of the best signature restaurants. I was actually considering Coral Reef for the reason you mentioned.

Every review I've read has trashed Tony's. What do you recommend from there? That parade idea is top notch. Thanks for all the info I really appreciate it.
