Mike, Scott, and Rikki are back today to have some fun with the Walt Disney World restaurants! We get this show topic from the BOGP Clubhouse as we were wondering what really drives guests to book the ADRs that they do. Are you looking more for the overall theme/experience of the restaurant or is it the food quality that is the most important factor? Today, we throw out various Walt Disney World restaurants and discuss if the experience is greater than, less than, or equal to the food quality! Play right along with us!
