food IS a theme park
We’re always excited to try the new foods around Disney World because that means we get to tell you about them and help you decide if they’re good for you and your family.
Sunshine Seasons
We headed over to Sunshine Seasons in EPCOT to check out one of their new menu items for plant-based eaters — is this new wrap worth the money? Let’s find out together!
One of the best things about the Disneyland Resort (undoubtedly) is the FOOD and it’s even better when the price is super affordable!
Frontierland
It’s no secret that if you’re looking to save a buck or two at the Disney Parks, quick service is the way to go. These restaurants sacrifice comfort and luxury dining for quick and cheap meals that are perfect if you’re on the go. Fortunately, Disneyland has a ton of very good quick service options, including an incredibly underrated one over at Frontierland in Disneyland Park!
There’s a secret menu item hiding at La Cava del Tequila in EPCOT. Shh! Don’t tell anyone. OK, actually, you can tell your friends. Drinks at La Cava are best enjoyed with others, right?
La Cava del Tequila
A drink spot tucked away in the Mexico Pavilion in EPCOT’s World Showcase used to be a hidden gem. But these days, it seems like EVERYONE has learned about the wonders and delights of La Cava del Tequila. We often see LONG lines just to get a drink here! OK, now back to what brought us here. You need a secret code to get ahold of this special drink in EPCOT, but there’s a catch.
OK, Disney fans. We don’t often recommend overpaying for Disney snacks — especially if they’re just mediocre. But when it comes to coffee — all bets are off. We need a hit of caffeine to get us going in the morning, and if that means heading down to the hotel lobby for a cup of coffee, we are willing to spend $6 to $7 for a cup of cold brew. Anyone else?
Lavender Latte, anyone?
Sure, you can brew your own coffee in your Disney hotel room, but nothing compares to the stuff you can get at a cafe. And for a while, one Disney coffee shop has been closed, and we’ve been waiting for it to open! But finally, the time has come. A handy little coffee spot is BACK!
We have loved A LOT of things in Disney World that have suddenly disappeared.
Cinderella Castle
The Magical Express, FastPasses, and The Great Movie Ride are just a few of the popular things in Disney World that have left us too soon. We know that Disney World changes, and we have to accept that some of the best attractions, restaurants, shops, and accommodations won’t be around forever as they may eventually be revamped into something new or taken away completely. But there is one recent change that we CANNOT get over. Disney has “committed a crime” in Magic Kingdom, and we’re still in complete shock.
Any time there’s new food in Disney World, you can bet we’ll be there to try it out!
Maji Pool Bar
We’ve recently had a limited-time POG-flavored treat that we LOVED, some incredible Tiana’s Bayou Adventure-themed food (including BEIGNETS!) at Magic Kingdom, and a couple of brand-new Starbucks drinks that we got from Main Street Bakery. On a recent visit to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge (one of our favorite hotels on property), we found a new grilled cheese sandwich that’s hiding in an obscure location. We just have to warn you: this sandwich is going to be DIVISIVE. [Read more…]
Happy 626 Day, otherwise known as 6/26! If there’s one thing we love, it’s a fun Disney holiday, and Disney came prepared to celebrate this year. Before we talk about all the fun limited-time treats available now, we should probably stop by and say hi to Stitch. Everybody say “HIIII STITCH.”
Hey Stitch!
Great. Now that we’ve got that out of the way, let’s talk treats. In honor of 626 Day, Disney released some special treats inspired by Stitch! Wanna see what we tried? Spoiler alert: there was a lot of BLUE involved. Let’s go!
Disney World food is amazing, wouldn’t you agree?!
YASS corn dog nugs!
From Dole Whips to Mickey-shaped…well everything, Disney World food is such a key part of the whole experience. That being said, the other day while we were walking through the parks, we started noticing something we weren’t expecting. We’re surprised we didn’t pick up on it earlier, but it appears there’s a trend that’s changing how people eat in Disney World!
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is officially OPEN in Magic Kingdom!
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
It’s been a long time coming, and though we’ve already had an opportunity to check out the new ride — we can’t wait for you to ride, too! As part of the celebration, Disney announced new souvenirs, entertainment, and of course, snacks to welcome Tiana’s and we’re checking a few of those eats out right now!
NEW summer menu items just arrived at Starbucks, and you know we HAD to try them out!
New Starbucks Drinks
We’ve already tried out some of Starbucks’ summer menu, including a drink that tasted EXACTLY like our childhood. But now it’s time for round two, as Starbucks has released a few new drinks, a new sweet cream, and some new snacks. Let’s check them out! [Read more…]
