I am staying on site July 12-14 and wanted reservations for the 13th. I accidentally called 181 days in advance and was almost shoo-ed off the phone until the reservationist asked if I was staying onsite and I replied I was. She let me know that if you are staying onsite at Disney you are allowed to make reservations for the length of your stay beginning 180 from the dates you check in. Well that little bit of info opened up the reservation for me and I was able to snag the Chef's Table for the night of the 13th.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700469527242530776.post-43884994203056266062010-01-07T07:18:57.589-06:002010-01-07T07:18:57.589-06:00Great review...We also had Chef Amy and we loved h...Great review...We also had Chef Amy and we loved her talents and energy. We've been twice and going again on 2011 which is our first "use" year for our DVC. <br /><br />The number indicated, is this to make a reservation as well or just to get on the wait list?<br /><br />After going twice, we definitely want to experience the Chef Table.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10829252941575835539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700469527242530776.post-89041289144992102712008-01-24T20:23:00.000-06:002008-01-24T20:23:00.000-06:00What an amazing dining experience.

I can say that during my one visit to the "regular" dining room I didn't see any visitations by the Chef to any of the tables (it is a small dining room).<BR/><BR/>I'd be interested if anyone has successfully got this kind of service in the regular dining room.<BR/><BR/>But I can honestly say, that, in my opinion, the whole reason to do the Chef's Table is the different ambiance you get eating in the kitchen. If my only choice was to eat in the regular dining room, I'd just stick with the normal dining experience for that location. <BR/><BR/>I feel the extra cost for the Chef's Table is worth the real one-on-one feeling you get with the kitchen and her staff. If I had to pay to get that service in the regular dining room, I would feel like I had lost something.<BR/><BR/>But, I can only say that now because I've experienced it in the kitchen. <BR/><BR/>For those who have not, it may be worth it because you would get a "plussed" experienceAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17070035707769272213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700469527242530776.post-91079886199783750212008-01-21T10:17:00.000-06:002008-01-21T10:17:00.000-06:00I've heard that, if you ask, you can get the food ...I've heard that, if you ask, you can get the food experience of the chef's table at any of the V&A tables. Of course, you don't get the ambiance experience, but it is an option for people who cannot get the reservations at the table itself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700469527242530776.post-24792070418888680792008-01-20T19:41:00.000-06:002008-01-20T19:41:00.000-06:00i especially like all the food pics! your review o...i especially like all the food pics! your review of V&A was one of the first posts of yours that i read! i want to do the chefs table. i think you also do a great job of illustrating to the non-foodies out there what to expect and not to be ascared!!!<BR/><BR/>lisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700469527242530776.post-44784307828169987872008-01-20T11:58:00.000-06:002008-01-20T11:58:00.000-06:00Eric,Thanks.
