food IS a theme park
Are you tired of the same old dining experiences in Disney World?
Chicken Strips and Fries at Backlot Express
We promise. Disney World food is MORE than corn dog nuggets, soft pretzels, and popcorn (though there is absolutely a time and place for ALL of those delicacies)!
Have you heard the news?
Japan pavilion
No, we’re not talking about the Disney Dining Plan’s return and the Genie+ changes. Or the fact that most visitors won’t need park pass reservations in 2024. We’re talking about the BRAND NEW restaurant that was just announced for Disney World!
We have exciting food news from Disney World!
Japan Pavilion in EPCOT
A NEW table-service restaurant is coming to the Japan Pavilion in EPCOT — and we’ve got a first look at the food available there!
It’s no secret that Disney World trips can be exhausting — there’s a ton of walking, eating, adrenaline rushing through your veins, and more. So, we don’t blame you if you need the occasional caffeinated pick-me-up.
How do you get your fix?
But are you Team Joffrey’s or Team Starbucks? You’ll find both throughout the parks, and we’re putting one to the test because two new Starbucks drinks have landed in Disney World!
Disney World food is easily our favorite thing (it is our name after all).
EPCOT at Disney World
We’re nearly always prepping for exciting news and announcements — from new rides and hotels to the latest Disney dining news. And, when it comes to Disney dining, EPCOT is where it’s at. Disney just shared that a NEW restaurant is coming to EPCOT this summer, and we’ve got all the details! [Read more…]

There are some great perks to staying at a Disney Hotel.
Art of Animation
You can get early entry to the park by 30 minutes (and this perk was just extended into 2024). If you are staying at a Deluxe Resort, you can get Extended Evening Hours as well! Disney World hotel guests also have the opportunity to purchase special event tickets EARLY (like tickets to Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party). There is another perk that we are beginning to see rolling out in hotels across Disney World.
Welcome back to Disney Springs!
Disney Springs
We spotted some new snacks and menu changes over in this area of Disney World in the past week or so, but that’s not all. There’s new merchandise you have to see and even MORE snacks you may want to try — come with us to see what’s new in Disney Springs!
Did you know that some of the BEST food in Disney World isn’t even inside the theme parks? The parks have some great restaurants, of course, but there are plenty of places to dine when you don’t have a ticket for the day. Each of the Disney Resorts has at least one restaurant, but the REAL cream of the crop can be found at Disney Springs!
Disney Springs
Disney Springs is home to literally dozens of dining locations, and they’ve got cuisine from all over the world. But if you’re coming to Florida and you want some traditional American eats with a taste from the coast, there’s one place that comes to mind.
There’s always one person on your Disney World trip that runs the show. They’re in charge of wrangling up the group in the morning, booking the Genie+ reservations, and keeping the party on schedule. It’s not an easy job! If you’re reading this, chances are you are that person, so let’s talk.
We’ve seen a meltdown (or twenty) in our time at Disney World.
Listen, you probably spent a lot of money on this vacation. You want it to be perfect (or as close to perfect as you can get). Unless you find yourself dealing with the most relaxed, agreeable group of people in the world, your group may start to feel a little tension as the vacation unfolds; it’s totally normal! Luckily, we’ve seen it all, so we know ALL the tips and tricks for how to avoid the pure agony of a Disney World meltdown.
