And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive right on in!
Sure, you can go to Disney World and eat your fill of chicken tenders and fries (and there’s nothing wrong with that!). But, you can also visit Disney World and eat at restaurants with all kinds of unique and delicious dishes created by celebrity chefs!

In Disney Springs, you can stop by restaurants like Morimoto Asia or Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’. Outside of Disney World, you can grab fish & chips at a spot created by celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay. Soon, you’ll be able to stop by a hotel near Disney World to munch on more treats created by another celebrity chef!
Halloween is coming up soon, folks!
NEW Magic Kingdom Halloween decor
We’ve already tried a ton of the spooky snacks at the Disney World theme parks, like a candy corn milkshake, a frightful funnel cake, and the cutest little ghost cupcake you ever did see! And now, you don’t even have to have a theme park ticket to get your hands on fun, seasonal treats, because we’ve got a FULL list of all of the fall food at Disney Springs!
Disney World has fully embraced their EARidescent theme for the 50th Anniversary celebrations.
P&J’s Southern Takeout
There are EARidescent Minnie ears, decorations, and treats all over the parks. But today we found a Disney World treat that isn’t covered in blue, purple, and gold. Come with us to check out this rare beauty at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campgrounds.
Disney World recently introduced a brand new Annual Passholder Program and made quite a few changes.
Annual Pass
There are now less pass options than there were previously, some add-on features that used to be included in certain passes, and new price points. The program also got a whole new look, which has already been seen on passes and throughout the parks. And now, there are a few NEW perks coming for Annual Passholders!
If you’re heading to Disney World soon for the 50th Anniversary Celebration, make sure you have room for food — somewhere in the neighborhood of 150+ new bites and sips. We aren’t kidding, there are over one hundred new food and drink items for fans to enjoy at the parks and resorts!
Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground
Today, we made our way to P&J’s Southern Takeout at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campgrounds to try a 50th Anniversary treat that takes a sweet twist on a classic dinner!
