food IS a theme park
When it comes to dining in Disney World, how do you choose?!
Disney Springs
Between the parks and hotels, there are so many restaurants — not to mention the plethora of options at your disposal at Disney Springs. Speaking of which, it happens to be one of our favorite places to grab a bite to eat on a Disney World trip — and we’ll be RUNNING to try these new menu items just announced at a fan-favorite spot!
Disney Springs is essentially Disney World’s outdoor mall, with almost 100 stores and gift shops, more than 60 restaurants and snack stands, and over 20 entertainment offerings.

But, we’ve been seeing quite a few closures happening around Disney Springs over the past year with stores like the Art of Shaving, the Sosa Family Cigars shop over by Salt & Straw; then, more recently, the UGG store closed its doors as well. And recently, another store joined that list.
Some pretty awesome things happened with Disney World food this week.
Y’all! Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs has arrived in Disney World!!!
First, Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs at Disney’s BoardWalk FINALLY OPENED. Yes, we finally got our Pickle Dog. We’ve only waited FOREVER for this day. We also had an AMAZING meal (well, ANOTHER amazing meal) at Takumi-Tei in EPCOT. And maybe, most importantly, THE NEW STARBUCKS FALL MENU DROPPED. However, we also saw some changes with Disney World restaurant menus, and well, we’re going to tell you about them.
While it might not seem obvious, a Disney World vacation can be very demure, very mindful.
So peaceful
We often write about how hectic a Disney World vacation can be, but that doesn’t mean a trip can’t be practical and relaxing. Planning a Disney World trip can be chaotic and stressful, so we’re coming to the rescue with some tips on hotels that are quintessentially demure!
We have an update on the wrongful death lawsuit filed against The Walt Disney Company, and it seems Disney may be ready to change their initial thoughts on how they wish to proceed.

Just days ago Disney was making a motion to move this lawsuit to arbitration citing terms and conditions that the plaintiff had agreed to when signing up for a Disney+ streaming service trial years ago, but now it seems that they’re looking to move things along within a courtroom instead.
It’s pizza time!!!
Yummmmmm
We had a major craving for pizza (preferably not of the puffy kind) and decided to stop by Disney Springs to see how things were going over at Blaze Pizza. While there, we tried some of their brand-new menu items and wanted to share our thoughts with y’all.
It’s been a busy week for Disney!
Funnel Cake from Epic Eats at Hollywood Studios
We got the Q3 2024 financial results for the company and learned how the theme parks were doing. We’ve been to the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and ate a TON of party-exclusive snacks. We’ve also been checking menus at Disney World restaurants to see if anything has changed, and the answer is “yes!” So let’s take a look at which Disney World restaurants changed this week.
Extra, extra, read all about it! Seriously, we’re sure Disney World hasn’t had a wink of sleep because they’ve dropped so many new updates this week (including some for spooky season!). If you’ve missed out, this is your chance to catch up!

There are tons of restaurants in Disney Springs.

Many popular dining spots are all around the shopping and dining district. But did you know that one restaurateur owns several of the restaurants there? Robert Earl is the owner of Earl of Sandwich, Planet Hollywood, and co-owner of Chicken Guy! with Guy Fieri. Now, another restaurant owned by Robert Earl has filed for bankruptcy.

The rich, famous, and influential – – from politicians and royalty to rock stars and Hollywood icons – – have been visiting Disney’s theme parks since Disneyland opened back in 1955. However, it’s admittedly not that often we see one of the most famous faces in the country chow down on one of the resort’s trademark desserts for all to see.
