food IS a theme park
You know how we always say to be ready for the unexpected when it comes to your Disney World trip?
Space Mountain Is Temporarily Closed!
A BIG surprise for you could come in the form of a ride evacuation or emergency. They happen a LOT more than you’d think…and we’ve got the details on what to do when they happen to you!
We’re back to visit one of Magic Kingdom’s classic restaurants, The Plaza Restaurant on Main Street, U.S.A.!
Plaza
This sit-down restaurant has a lot going for it but often gets forgotten! They serve up reasonably-priced classic cozy comfort dishes (including ice cream sundaes!), has a bright and airy dining room, and a primo view of Cinderella Castle! Even WE forget this Main Street establishment is there at times. So we decided to visit and see what’s going on at this small cozy spot with a killer view.
Have you heard of the ABC series Pooch Perfect? It’s a new dog grooming competition show (seriously, you can compete with just about every skill these days!) hosted by none other than Rebel Wilson (do we think her correlation with the show was inspired by her appearance in Pitch Perfect? Or are we reading too far into this?).
ABC’s “Pooch Perfect”
If you haven’t heard of the new show, you’ll quickly learn all about it if you take a trip to Disney Springs this week.
Welcome, world travelers, to another update from EPCOT!
Spaceship Earth
We’re checking out all of the latest findings across EPCOT’s construction, food, and merchandise updates! Let’s dive right in!
There is a whole bunch of merchandise available in Disney World — ears, Loungefly bags, shoes, the WORKS.
Ready to Visit Disney World?
And while some of this merchandise is relatively inexpensive or pretty “typical” in terms of price, today we found some new items that are QUITE expensive. Would you pay OVER $200 for Disney’s latest merch?
EPCOT is in the midst of a MAJOR transformation!

New attractions like Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind are in progress. Plus much of the park is getting a new look. We’re especially excited to see Harmonious, the new nighttime spectacular — but we can’t say we’re happy about how those massive barges look in the water… .Â
Welcome back to Magic Kingdom, DFB friends!
Cinderella Castle
We’re back with another update on everything new and exciting at Disney World’s flagship park. Let’s take a look at some new construction, merchandise, and more!
Disney World is constantly changing!
Partners Statue
Sometimes we see those changes coming and sometimes we don’t. Last month, a few things definitely caught us off guard. Here are the three most unexpected things that happened in Disney World in March!
In the last year, we’ve seen a lot of “sprucing up” going on around the Walt Disney World parks, but especially in Magic Kingdom!
Cinderella Castle getting work done for the 50th Anniversary.
Cinderella Castle got a new paint job and now she’s getting additional decorations for the 50th Anniversary. We also noticed repainting happening at the parking entrance for the TTC and several classic attractions are getting golden touch-ups. Today, we spotted another place in the park where there’s some painting going on, and we took some photos to share with you!
The phased reopening of Walt Disney World continues! And, we’re especially happy to see more dining locations and options become available once again.
Olivia’s Cafe
Just a few weeks ago, for instance, Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort opened again to guests (along with its restaurants, of course). And while Olivia’s Cafe has been open for awhile now, this hidden gem of a restaurant at Disney’s Old Key West Resort has recently reinstated brunch at Olivia’s Cafe. (And, may we say… YUM!) In fact, if you’re planning on kicking back at Old Key West yourself, then you need to know about ANOTHER quick-service spot reopening to guests!
