food IS a theme park
We all know it’s true — one of the best parts about visiting Disney is all the delicious FOOD.
Contempo Cafe
It seems that Disney is constantly whipping up unique and delicious new dishes — and of course, here at DFB, we truly can’t get enough. We found a NEW dish at Disney’s Contemporary Resort that we think you will LOVE. The best part is, it’s a mac-n-cheese dish — so it’s already picky-eater-approved!
Pause whatever you’re doing. If you love cakes and Disney World, there’s a snack you absolutely MUST see.
Sassagoula
Disney often has limited-time snacks available and now is no exception. Celebrate Soulfully is Disney’s way of celebrating “soul-inspiring experiences” and it gets a particular highlight during Black History Month in February. The event has actually brought a number of new snacks to the parks and resorts, and now we’re headed to one location at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter for an EPIC cake.
The Walt Disney World Railroad recently reopened in Magic Kingdom after being closed for more than four years!
The train!
The train was forced to close so that construction could begin on TRON Lightcycle / Run, but now it is officially open for guests once again. It’s one of our favorite experiences in Magic Kingdom, especially since it takes you all around the park — giving you a prime view of other attractions, construction projects, and more. But, we think we may have figured out the exact WRONG time to take the train in Disney World!
If it’s been a while since you’ve been to Disney Springs, we have all of the updates for you!
Disney Springs
Disney World has been pretty busy lately with the closing of Splash Mountain, the upcoming changes to nighttime shows, and the upcoming grand opening of TRON Lightcycle / Run. While all of that has been focused on the parks, we can’t leave out Disney Springs! So today we’re going to catch you up on all things new happening in Disney’s shopping, dining, and entertainment complex.
Well, the first month of 2023 is behind us already and we’re getting ready for Valentine’s Day (and Valentine’s Day treats!).
Sweetheart Sundae
This month, we finally got an opening date for Roundup Rodeo BBQ, as well as the full menu, and a few other details. But we also got some updates for Disney World’s existing restaurants — so here are how those menus changed in January.
We’ve got QUITE the challenge ahead of us today!
We’re gonna figure out which Disney World theme park is BEST of the BEST. Will YOU be shocked by the end results? Only one way to find out!
Although we’re smack dab in the middle of the EPCOT Festival of the Arts, Disney World is already looking ahead to the next festival!
2022 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival
We’ve already got dates for the festival, along with details of everything that will be returning this year. That includes the Garden Rocks concert series — and now, we’ve got details about the Garden Rocks dining packages!
It hasn’t been that long since we last reported on the initial changes we observed during Splash Mountain’s first days fully closed.
Splash Mountain
Disney is certainly not wasting any time when it comes to changing Splash Mountain into Tiana’s Bayou Adventure! We’ve got a few more changes to report that may not have been as noticeable to an unsuspecting guest!
Can you believe we’re only a short time away from the start of the 2023 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival?!
EPCOT
It all kicks off on March 1st, and we’ve already had a sneak peek at everything returning for this year’s fest so far. But now, we know the FULL lineup of artists coming to the Garden Rocks Concert Series at the EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival this year!
If your first thought is “Gideon’s Bakehouse,” when we say cookies, we’ve got some news for you!
We’re back!
As you may know, we visit Gideon’s Bakehouse on the first of each month to check out the cookies of the month! Last month, we dove into the Cookie Butter Butterscotch Cookie, and the month before that, we ate pretty much ALL of the holiday offerings. Well, now we’re back to try an old favorite to see if it still measures up.
