food IS a theme park
It was a BIG week of surprises in Disney World!
Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom
From huge restaurant news to early openings of a character meet-and-greet and a highly anticipated show, we weren’t sure what else to expect this week! Find out all the news right here.
There are lots of exciting dining and snack updates happening in Disney World these days!
Brunch spread at Olivia’s Cafe
In the past few months, the parks and resorts have opened several new restaurants and we’ve still got more on the way! On top of that, we’ve got a long list of new snacks available for the summer season. And now, Disney has made a very exciting announcement about an under-the-radar restaurant!
Wow! What a month, y’all!
Oven-Roasted Shrimp Scampi
SO much happened in May: Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind has officially opened in EPCOT. We had a ton of announcements come in from Star Wars Celebration. While all that was going on, we also kept an eye on every menu at Disney World restaurants so we could keep you updated on any changes.
When you think classic theme park food, we’re guessing burgers and fries come to mind, right?
We know a thing or two about burgers
While a lot of people would consider that the standard theme park fare, Disney has SO much more than that now. From the food booths at EPCOT festivals to steakhouses, there are a lot of options. However, this doesn’t mean we’re against burgers at Disney, because they definitely have their place, especially now that there are SO many more to choose from. So, let’s take a look at EVERY. SINGLE. BURGER. you can get in Disney World and Disneyland!
What’s the best part of going to Disney World regularly? There is ALWAYS something new to eat!
Pepperoni Pizza Egg Roll
You know us — we are ALL about trying new snacks, new foods, and new drinks. Just this week, we tried Sweet Tea Fried Chicken, a brand new Bubble Waffle Sundae, a humongous pizza roll, and more! We’re always keeping a close eye on Disney World restaurant menus to see when new things arrive, but we look for other changes, too.
What a week, right?
There’s a new drink at Starbucks!
We’re still riding on the high of riding Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic rewind last week, getting updates on TRON Lightcycle Run testing, and drooling over the new Mexico ears over in EPCOT. But don’t worry because we’re still keeping a close eye on Disney World restaurant menus, and we’ve got all the updates for the week right here!
Life moves pretty fast at Disney World, if you don’t stop and look around every once in a while, you might miss something!
Polynesian Village Resort
Between new Mother’s Day treats, supply shortages, and big changes coming to EPCOT, there’s a lot to keep track of! And now it’s time to take a look at what’s new at the Disney World resorts this week. We have a lot to go over from baby birds to Crocs charms, so let’s get started!
Are you planning a trip to Disney World with a BIG group? You might be wondering how to find a hotel that can accommodate everyone in your party without sacrificing space — or your budget.
Disney’s Wilderness Lodge
Disney World has many great hotels! Yes, it IS possible to find a hotel on Disney World property that can work for big groups of people! There are options ranging from the lower end of the price spectrum all the way up to a HUGE splurge, so you might want to take a look at your budget and check out our list!
Hey, do you know which hotel no one talks about? Probably not, because no one talks about it! Okay, okay, we’re kidding, but really — we hear about Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort all the time, and even the All-Star Resorts are pretty popular. But what about Disney’s Old Key West Resort? It’s high time we pay a visit to this quiet little DVC resort and show you what it’s about!
Hello from Disney’s Old Key West resort!
If you’re unfamiliar with this hotel, Old Key West was the original Disney Vacation Club Resort. It was designed to feel less like a hotel and more like, well, home! Not only that, but a SUPER underrated restaurant know as Olivia’s Cafe is tucked away at this resort — try the Southernmost Buttermilk Chicken and thank us later. 😉 Now that you’ve got a little background, come with us as we tour a room at Disney’s Old Key West Resort.
