More TIPS here 👇 There is so much to do and se More TIPS here 👇

There is so much to do and see. Make sure you read up on all the panels available, and view the schedule on the @megaconorlando app before arriving.

You can pre-purchase parking for the designated convention center lots. But I I recommend arriving 45 minutes before the official start time to park in the @hyattregencyorlando garage. It was a few dollars more than parking in the parking lots,  but a short walk.

When walking the expo floor look split your walk between the retailers and the Artist Alley. This will make it more manageable, it’s huge. It will also help you to remember where you left off if you leave to take a break. 

Drink lots of water, and wear comfortable shoes!

Have fun!

Is Yachtsman the best signature dining at Walt Dis Is Yachtsman the best signature dining at Walt Disney World?

Not at the moment… my streak was unevenly cooked, the Mac and cheese was recommended by our server and unfortunately fell very flat. Overall a nice experience, but there are definitely stronger choices on property now. 

Check out my recent Citricos Reel for a better signature dining experience.

What signature dining should we try next?

🍄 Wild Mushrooms Arancini
🍐 Grilled Pear Char Siu Porcelet Chop
🥩 Guava-barbecued Short Ribs

I recommend everything… and I loved the Praline Coconut Tart!

I was so impressed with the design a feel of this restaurant, and their flavors were on point. This is one of the top signature dining experiences at Walt Disney World right now, in my opinion.

When I worked at the Polynesian in 2007/2008 they allowed Cast Members to take gingerbread houses home to decorate and then we brought them back to be displayed in the lobby.

A Land Remembered takes its inspiration from the 1984 novel by the same name.

I love the atmosphere of this restaurant - the light level was perfect and gave a dark moody ambiance that I want from an upscale streak house. Perfect for a date night or dinner with friends. 

All steaks here are halal.

🎟️ They do validate your valet parking.

Thank you to Rosen Hotels & Resorts and the A Land Remembered team for hosting us.
