· The Unofficial Dining Guide to Walt Disney World is an indispensable reference tool for vacationers in Orlando as this book brings you all the menus and individual prices from restaurants around Walt Disney World, including parks, hotels, and even Downtown Disney. Updated several times within each year, The Unofficial Dining Guide to Walt Disney World lists complete menus from every eatery and provides actual dollar amounts, not just approximations. Best of all, handy indexes for each park make it simple to find the food items you're looking for at a quick glance. There's even a guide (and index) for restaurants near the Walt Disney World, should you wish to venture off-property. Everything you'd ever want to know about the dining experience at Disney World is here, making it not only an ideal tool for planning your trip, but a perfect companion when visiting the parks.

The Unofficial Dining Guide to Walt Disney World offers more than just complete menus and prices for all restaurants at Walt Disney World. Every aspect of the dining experience is covered here: available discounts, purchasing the Dining Plan, when and how to make reservations, and even character dining.

Each restaurant in Walt Disney World has a page dedicated to it, so it's a snap to browse through the entire theme park's offerings all at once. With this book in hand, you won't need to cross the whole park to find out just which food items are offered, or exactly how much each of them costs. Save time, save money, and get exactly the food you want instead of settling for a second or third choice simply to get back to riding attractions.

Visitors with special needs or cravings will find the indexes especially helpful. Got a finicky eater in your family? Enduring food cravings yourself? Trying to steer clear of some food items due to allergies or preferences? The indexes make it all easy. In addition to offering the ultimate resource for searching food items, the indexes for each park also serve to generate ideas. Hungry but not sure what you'd like to eat? Just browse through the alphabetical index and scan the listings until something looks good.

If you're still unsure, consult the recommendations for each theme park, covering such topics as "best value," "best fine dining," and "best escape from the weather outside." Or browse through the book while waiting in lines for attractions, and brush up on your restaurant trivia, included whenever there is space on the page. The Unofficial Dining Guide to Walt Disney World has it all. What better way to plan your vacation and expenses in advance? What tool could be more useful to bring along in the parks?

It's been brought to my attention (thanks John!) that people would benefit from knowing what to expect in my new menu book. So I've put the entire Magic Kingdom chapter online as a PDF. In addition to the menu listings and trivia, be sure to scroll to the end, when you can browse the index for the park. You'll see what a useful tool this book will be when visiting Walt Disney World!
