food IS a theme park
Are you READY for an ultra-super-jam-packed video where we set out to do EVERYTHING in Disney World in ONLY ONE WEEK?
Disney World
It’s a daunting task, but if anyone knows how to fit absolutely everything in Disney World into a single week, it’s us. So let us help you plan your upcoming vacation so that you don’t miss out on anything you want to do!
Ever since the reopening of the parks more than two years ago, we’ve slowly seen things return and reopen.
EPCOT’s World Showcase
We’ve had countless restaurant and resort reopenings, and more entertainment options and character hugs came back earlier this year. We’ve also seen the return of many “enchanting extras” like tours and hard-ticketed experiences. Now, three more of these offerings are coming back to EPCOT!
Guess what? We’ve got MORE Disney World merchandise news to share!
We love our Disney Halloween merch!
Right now, there’s tons of Halloween merchandise in Disney World (and extra special merchandise if you attend Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party), as well as Food & Wine merchandise over in EPCOT. If you’re a fan of Halloween in Disney like we are, then you won’t be able to resist these new Crocs we spotted in the parks today!
The day has FINALLY arrived.
Let’s GO!
When EPCOT’s 2022 Food & Wine Festival began in July of 2022, most of the booths opened. But a select few have remained shuttered…until NOW. For weeks, we’ve awaited the return of The Noodle Exchange booth and now we’ve finally gotten the chance to try out the booth for ourselves! Is it something you’ve got to add to your must-visit list? Let’s find out together.
We interrupt your regularly scheduled spooky Disney programming to bring you a wild update!
Pandora: World of Avatar
While Halloween is in full swing in Magic Kingdom and more Food & Wine Festival booths just opened up in EPCOT, there’s still plenty to see and do around the rest of the Disney parks as well — so let’s take a look at what’s new in Animal Kingdom!
If you think you’ve experienced all that the 2022 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival has to offer…you’d be wrong. (Proceed with caution: cheesy goodness lies ahead.)
Mac & Eats
Yes, the festival has been underway for quite some time now, but some booths were fashionably late to the party. So, it’s time for us to continue our food adventure by digging into the Mac & Eats Booth! Are there any must-eats here? Let’s chew on that.Â
Sometimes new and flashy isn’t necessary. You might not always want to eat food that numbs your mouth or pushes your flavor boundaries in Disney World. When you’re looking for a solid, tasty sandwich, we know just the place to go.
BoardWalk Deli
The NEW BoardWalk Deli is officially OPEN! This spot has officially replaced the BoardWalk Bakery and is now offering breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We’ve already shared a full review of breakfast, which you can see here. But now we’re diving into lunch (which features the same menu as dinner) to share our thoughts. What are you waiting for? Let’s GO!
Are our wallets really shrinking, or is it just our imagination?
Haunted Mansion merch at Tower Gifts
You guys — we’re struggling. We’re reeaaaally struggling. It’s Haunted Mansion merchandise, after Haunted Mansion merchandise, after Haunted Mansion merchandise. It’s getting harder and harder to say “no.” But alas, the spooky season will continue to test our willpower with more chillingly fun Haunted Mansion items. And good luck saying “no” to the newest Haunted Mansion collection.
It’s completely normal for things to close in Disney World!
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
What do we mean? Well, Disney World rides, attractions, shows, and hotel rooms often close temporarily to get refurbished and fixed up. Sometimes it’s routine maintenance, sometimes it’s to fix something that’s broken, and sometimes it’s a complete refresh. (Like with many of the hotel room updates we’ve seen recently!) Now, a popular Disney World restaurant has closed for a short refurbishment.
EPCOT’s 2022 International Food & Wine Festival kicked off back in mid-July, but not all of the food booths were open, until now!
Hawai’i 2022
We’ve already tried a ton of food from the festival, like some old favorites, new surprises, and a few disappointments. But, we’ve been waiting for the rest of the booths to open up! A handful of booths are finally opening up today, including a big fan favorite — Hawai’i! So, let’s see if this booth still lives up to the hype.
