food IS a theme park
Disney’s newest restaurant is officially OPEN!
Menu
EPCOT surprised us with an early opening of Shiki Sai: Sushi Izakaya in the Japan Pavilion on August 15th, and we stopped by to see what this new restaurant is all about. From color-changing drinks to a $300 sushi boat, this spot has a lot of exciting things to offer — but is it the right choice for you and your group? Maybe! But, here are a few reasons why you might want to skip this new dining location.
Have you heard? Rocket, Groot, Drax, Gamora, and Star-Lord — the Guardians of the Galaxy — need YOUR help to save the galaxy! And YOU can accept the mission in EPCOT!
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind

Well… there’s more to it than you might think when it comes to boarding the popular attraction to begin with.

Finding one of the most popular characters in Disney World just got easier.
Galaxy’s Edge
There are some pretty amazing (and even some exclusive!) character experiences in Disney World. Some characters are easier to spot since they have dedicated meet-and-greet locations, but other characters might only pop up for a few minutes at unexpected times. That was the case with one particularly popular duo, but now it seems things have changed.
Using Genie+ just got a little easier!
Kali River Rapids Lightning Lane
Disney has announced a number of updates to this paid service over the past few months. Its payment tiers are now different, and some big Genie+ changes are being planned for 2024. But now, one more feature has been altered.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios is a park full of thrill rides, entertaining shows, and tasty snacks.
Hollywood Studios
Today, we’re talking about the food. There are so many great snacks in Hollywood Studios. We’ve even got some snack hacks that you can do to create your very own UNIQUE treats there. But there is one snack location that we keep coming back to.
And just like that, we’re almost to September!Â
It’s fall!
September can be a very popular time to visit Disney World, as many are seeking lower crowds after schools are back in session as well as a respite from the heat that summer at Disney World brings. While a September Disney World vacation is definitely magical no matter which way ya play it, there are a few things to consider so that your September vacation isn’t dampened. Have no fear, DFB is here!
Since the reopening of Trail’s End Restaurant, it’s had us thinking… a lot.
NEW EATS at Trail’s End!
We know there are so many places to get good food around Disney World and that you really want to make sure you’re getting the best value for your money (and a full belly). So how did a standard Disney World side item here compare to other places we’ve seen it? [Read more…]
Temporary ride and attraction closures at Disney World are totally normal, and happen more often than you might think!
Haunted Mansion Temporary Closure
And no, they don’t mean that the rides are breaking down. Usually, these planned closures are for routine upkeep and maintenance so that the rides can run like new for years to come! Last week, we found out that a closure would take place in Magic Kingdom so that a fan-favorite attraction can be refurbished. Now, that ride is officially closed!Â
Disney World is known for being pretty magical, but if you ask us, some of the most magical places are found in the hotels.
Riviera Resort
It makes sense that Disney would make a point to put some seriously cozy places in peoples’ homes-away-from-home, and if you’re looking for somewhere to take a break or just find a new hangout spot — you’re gonna want to write these hidden Disney World hotel spots down.
STOP being caught off guard by Disney World’s BIGGEST changes…as well as its biggest problems.
