Before purchasing a specialty dining package, determine which of the restaurants you are interested in eating at. You need to consider what type of vacation you are on. Are you a casual person, if so, you may not want to go to 150 Central Park. If you enjoy getting dressed and having an elegant dinner, you can go to any of these restaurants and have a wonderful meal.

To get the most out of your money, you need to plan on going to the most expensive restaurants, ie, 150 Central Park and Chops, after that you can choice any of the remaining restaurants to have dinner.

If you purchase a specialty dining plan, going to an a la carte restaurant doesn’t provide you with the best value. Example, if you go to Izumi hibachi, you will get $30 credit towards a meal. The meals are $40, therefore you will have an additional bill of $10/pp
