CTI Dining - Sat Nite ??

[pkfk13]

I have a question about food options at CTI on Sat nite - did I read the dining web page correctly ?

From my read, the following are closed on Saturdays (Bayside, Verandah, Patio). The pool grill and veggie bar close at 6PM, also according to the dining page.

That leaves 8 rivers exclusively for Saturday night dinner....

We are most likely arriving on Friday - does 8 rivers have the capacity to handle the entire resort for Sat night dinner ? Would we even be able to get a reservation for Sat dinner since we arrive on Friday ? This does not compute for me....can anyone please clarify ?

Thanks !

HI Paul;

Saturday night is the Gala Poolside Buffet. If it is anything like the International buffet at CSA it is not to be missed!

Ditto what Marnies said about the Grand Poolside Gala Buffet - I'd eat here if I were you! But if you do want to eat at 8 Rivers on that night, you should be able to get a reservation as late as on Friday. No worries, mon! Same for on Monday night, which is the Beach Party.

Can anyone tell me about the Grand Poolside Gala Buffet? What kinds of food do they have? Entertainment also? Dress is casual (shorts)? Thanks! We won't be arriving at the resort until around 6 PM on Sat, so this sounds great!

The gala is now indoors at the Patio (unless they have changed since October). you will be able to get reservations at 8 Rivers if you want them.

All kinds of food! There is so much I don't even know where to start. Tables and tables of food. There is entertainment and dress can be casual. Definitely check it out!

Definitely casual and open air as it is on the on the Patio. Lots of amazing food.
