DFB Reader Finds

If you find a fun new food — or other edible awesomeness — in or around Disney, share a photo with us on facebook or twitter so we can add it to our DFB Reader Finds each Sunday.

When we visit Sprinkles in Disney Springs we always order a frosting shot (or two!) DFB reader Brendon says “When in Disney Springs you listen to DFB and get Frosting Shots!” Good call, Brendon!

We love the Best Friend’s Character Breakfast at ‘Ohana in Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. DFB reader Johnny Deluxe had a chance to enjoy the family style breakfast recently! Looks delicious (and perfect plating, Johnny!)
