A New Donut Shop Opened and Gideon's Bakehouse Temporarily Closed in Disney World This Week

Happy New Year, DFB Friends! We’ve been ringing in the New Year and getting ready for the EPCOT Festival of the Arts!

Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew

But we’ve also been busy covering the opening of a brand new donut shop (OH, YEAH!) while tracking some menu updates at a few locations. So let’s get to the menu updates we have from this past week!

EPCOT

Tutto Gusto

Although Tutto Italia Ristorante at the Italy Pavilion at EPCOT reopened in July, the bar next to it, Tutto Gusto, did not. In fact, up until recently, it was being used as extra seating for the restaurant. But that has changed and Tutto Gusto has reopened with a Grab and Go drink menu!

Tutto Gusto

Guests’ can choose from a variety of Italian cocktails, wines, and a limited selection of beer to order via a QR code menu. Then get your drink and go!

Here’s more about Tutto Gusto’s reopening

Disney Springs

Gideon’s Bakehouse

Although Gideon’s Bakehouse had a soft opening at Disney Springs just recently, it has closed temporarily to get things ready for its grand opening.

We’ll let you know as soon as that happens because we can’t wait to get our hands on some more of those delicious cookies!

Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew

Instead of cookies, though, we got to eat our weight in donuts at the grand opening of Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew! Let’s just say we have DONUT FEVER!

Resorts

California Grill

California Grill at Disney’s Contemporary Resort saw some menu changes this week. When we had the Oak-fired Filet of Beef in July, we enjoyed the addition of oxtail marmalade and red wine sweet onion juice to the meat, with a choice of sides of aged gouda mac and cheese or Brussels sprouts.

Oak-fired Filet of Beef

The meat is now served with Grilled Brentwood Corn, Calabrian Chili Butter, creamy barley, and a sweet onion demi sauce. The price is still the same for $59.

Entrees and Desserts at California Grill

We also noticed new items added to the Allergy-Friendly section of the menu:

Poached Shrimp Roll made with nori, jicama, and mango for $27
Cashew Cheesecake dessert is made with coffee-cashew cheesecake coated in a chocolate glaze for $14
Truffle Selezione Pasta was added back to the menu and is made with baby carrots, forest mushrooms, and truffle tofu cream for $37

California Grill Seating

The allergy-friendly child menu now has two additional appetizers:

Chicken Noodle Soup made with house-made chicken broth, macaroni, and vegetables for $6
Hearts of Romaine salad with avocado-ranch dressing, tomatoes, bacon, and croutons for $6
