food IS a theme park

And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s get started!
We seriously did a happy dance when the Pulled Pork Nachos became available again on Mobile Order at Capt. Cook’s in Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.
Pulled Pork Nachos from Capt. Cook’s
Well, if you love the chips that these nachos are served on, but don’t necessarily need all the toppings, then have we got the snack for you. Capt. Cook’s is selling Poly Chips as a separate side item all on their own (and the Tiki Gods rejoiced)!
Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, we’ve seen a lot of new health and safety measures put into place, especially for travelers.
Disneyland Park — Health and Safety Reminders
Those coming to Disney World can expect physical distancing markers, a touchless security system, temperature checks, and mask mandates, along with enhanced cleaning procedures. And outside of Disney World, other popular travel destinations and airports are putting their own precautions in place to protect travelers. Now, there’s a good chance that COVID tests will be required for those traveling to the United States.
Several refurbishments are happening in Walt Disney World right now!
Harper’s Mill Construction
Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Square Riverboat are all getting fixed up in Magic Kingdom. Over in Animal Kingdom, Kali River Rapids is going through some Winter downtime, and Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is getting a full-scale makeover. The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover is among those that are temporarily closed. But, today we saw a glimmer of hope for a potential reopening.
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at the Skyliner Resorts!
Riviera Resort
And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s get started!
When traveling to Disney World, there are a variety of places you could stay!
Grand Floridian
Many guests choose to stay on-site, enjoying the luxuries of a Walt Disney World Resort hotel, with direct transportation to the parks and special perks. Others decide to stay off-site in vacation homes or other hotels for cheaper or more spacious accommodations. In the coming years, there’s going to be a new choice for those who wish to try staying outside the Disney World property lines — the Evermore Orlando Resort.
Yesterday, we tried an INSANE hot dog from Hot Diggity Dog, one of the Disney food trucks at Disney Springs. With billionaire’s bacon, Spicy Peanut Butter Spread, Banana Honey Mustard, Chipotle-Berry Preserves, and more — this dog is either the stuff of your dreams or your nightmares!
The King Dog
But, while we were at the food trucks we also stopped for a slightly less outrageous treat — the Mac & Cheese Fritters! We’ve had some absolutely AMAZING fried mac & cheese at Wine Bar George, so we had to see how these little treats would compare.
The past year has definitely been unique for those who enjoy participating in runDisney events.

With multiple runDisney races changed to virtual events, it’s been a while since we’ve seen participants running through the Disney parks. To help keep the excitement going for the at-home races, Disney has been releasing A TON of new merchandise, and we happened to spot two new items in Magic Kingdom!
Valentine’s Day is just over a month away, and Disney is getting ready with ALL kinds of new merchandise!
Valentine’s Day Merchandise
From Valentine’s Day Dolls to the sweetest pair of Minnie ears, there’s lots to choose from. Yesterday, we also spotted a special Valentine’s Day The Lion King MagicBand available online. Today, we saw that this design has made its way to Disney World too!
