food IS a theme park
There’s nothing quite like heading for Magic Kingdom in the morning.
Well Hello, There Disney Bus!
When you arrive at the Transportation and Ticket Center, you’re just one step away from walking up to the gates of the Magic Kingdom. Now,  we spotted a difference in the modes of transportation currently being offered from the TTC to Magic Kingdom — and you’re gonna want to hear it.
We’re at Disney’s Hollywood Studios today to explore the props, paints, and provisions at the Backlot Express!
Backlot Express
This counter-service spot is themed as a production warehouse, and serves up classic theme park entrees such as burgers, sandwiches, and salads. This spot typically a reliable place to stop for lunch in the park, and we’ve we’ve enjoyed a few of our meals here in the past. Recently, we found a very Instagrammable cake here! On this visit, we noshed on a couple entrees, as well as a Star Wars-themed treat! Will this visit measure up? Let’s find out!
We’ve learned SO much about Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, a.k.a. Disney World’s Star Wars Hotel, this May the 4th!
It’s the Halcyon!
Unfortunately, we learned that the two-night immersive hotel experience has been delayed until 2022. BUT! We also learned that there will be a REAL extending lightsaber onboard and that there will be the Crown of Corellia Dining Room, which will serve breakfast and lunch to guests before transforming into a more formal dinner venue and have performers each evening!
May the 4th be WITH you, indeed!
Star Wars Day Hat
In honor of Star Wars Day, Disney dropped a TON of Star Wars merchandise and we tried SO many Star Wars Day treats like the Dark Side Chocolate Creation, Interstellar Sweet and Crunchy Popcorn, Galactic Swirl Funnel Cake, and we even drank out of Darth Vader’s helmet!
We’ve seen our fair share of shoulder plushes around Walt Disney World!
Orange Bird Shoulder Plush
If you want a lil buddy while hopping from park to park, you can grab a shoulder Orange Bird, shoulder Grogu, shoulder porg, shoulder Forky, or a shoulder Remy!
It’s a new month in Disney World!
Look at that fancy decor!
We’ve made a few visits to the Most Magical Place on Earth over the past few days and you KNOW that means we’ve spotted some updates. Today, we’re bringing you a look at everything NEW in Magic Kingdom in food, construction, and merchandise!
We’ve gotten LOTS of big news about the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser hotel today!

Disney officially announced that the opening date was pushed back to 2022, and we got details about dining, a SUPER cool lightsaber, and more. But if you happened to check your My Disney Experience app today, you’ll notice something exciting just happened!
PHEW! It’s Star Wars Day, and that means we’ve been off on a galactic adventure all day long to show you everything happening in the parks!
Star Wars Day Merchandise
Although we know you’re invested in that awesome-themed food, Disney World is also hosting exclusive merchandise in honor of the May the 4th holiday. And, we’re giving you a look at every piece of merchandise you can find in Disney’s Hollywood Studios for Star Wars Day! And note that some are available online as well!
Hello from EPCOT!
There’s nothing like EPCOT in the spring!
Our DFB reporters are constantly visiting all the Disney World theme parks to see what’s new and bring you all the latest updates. During a recent trip to EPCOT we discovered some UNIQUE chip flavors (Texas Grilled BBQ chips anyone?), got a look at some EPCOT construction updates, and found that a part of an attraction that had been REMOVED is back! Ready to go on a virtual trip to EPCOT with us to see what’s new? Alright then! Let’s go!
Here at DFB, we’re all about those snack hacks!
Waffles with a view
We were pairing corn dog nuggets with cheese long before it was a menu combo at Casey’s Corner, and we’ve been known to add ice cream to our favorite desserts from time to time. Recently, (with the help of a Cast Member) we made a new drink concoction at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, and now it’s on the menu!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
