food IS a theme park
Genie+ is changing, and we are here to help you learn about the new system!
New Lightning Lane changes are coming
This new system will still utilize Lightning Lanes, which are the physical queues in Disney World for those who use their pay-to-skip-the-line service. The latest changes to this service mimic an old friend of ours, FastPass+. This new, updated service will officially start on July 24th, so it’s important to learn how to use it before your next trip!
It’s almost time for a brand new Magic Kingdom ride to open for everyone!
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
It’s no surprise that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is opening up to the general public on June 28th, and we couldn’t be more excited! Now, we’ve had the chance to preview the ride and we’ve been left with a crisis. Is Tiana’s Bayou Adventure better to Ride AT NIGHT?! Let’s figure it out together!
We’re “Almost There,” y’all! Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will be officially opening in Magic Kingdom to the public TOMORROW, on June 28th.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
Now, we finally had a chance to check out the ride for ourselves, although it’s been having some technical issues. We have seen a sneak peek at some Tiana’s Bayou Adventure merchandise, but one select group of Disney World visitors is getting EXCLUSIVE merchandise that will be available soon!
It’s a whirlwind of excitement at Disney World in the summer—seriously, there’s so much going on. But there’s one event that fills our foodie hearts with joy: Flavors of Florida at Disney Springs!
Disney Springs Flavors of Florida
Beginning on July 1st, 2024, over 30 Disney Springs restaurants come together to share creative dishes and drinks inspired by the state of Florida — rom fresh seafood to citrusy delights, you’ll taste the best of the Sunshine State in every bite. This year, we got a first look at what the event has to offer and we’re sharing a sneak peek with you!
Any time there’s new food in Disney World, you can bet we’ll be there to try it out!
Maji Pool Bar
We’ve recently had a limited-time POG-flavored treat that we LOVED, some incredible Tiana’s Bayou Adventure-themed food (including BEIGNETS!) at Magic Kingdom, and a couple of brand-new Starbucks drinks that we got from Main Street Bakery. On a recent visit to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge (one of our favorite hotels on property), we found a new grilled cheese sandwich that’s hiding in an obscure location. We just have to warn you: this sandwich is going to be DIVISIVE. [Read more…]
Who doesn’t love a sale?
Loungefly bags
Let us rephrase that — who doesn’t love a DISNEY sale? We certainly can’t turn down a good sale. Here’s the thing, though: when we learn about a sale, we have to share it with our friends (that’s you). So we’re about to tell you about a sale happening right now at The Disney Store. Yes, that’s right — it’s time to buy more Disney souvenirs.
There are three things we love to do on a Disney Cruise. 1.) Lounge by the pool and RELAX. 2.) Enjoy all the FUN entertainment! 3.) Eat allll the food. But this is Disney Food Blog, so of course, we pay extra special attention to the food and drinks you can enjoy on a Disney Cruise. Speaking of cruises, we need to talk about the next Disney Cruise Line ship debuting THIS YEAR!

The Disney Treasure is coming SOON! This ship has so many fun new things to look forward to, like a new Coco-themed restaurant, a Haunted Mansion lounge, and a special Moana show. There is still so much to learn about this new ship — we’ve been waiting for Disney to share menu previews for AGES. But finally — finally! — Disney just released a NEW look at the menus coming to the Disney Treasure. Wanna see? Of course you do! Let’s take a look!

We already know a lot about the Disney Treasure, the Disney Cruise Line’s upcoming sixth ship, scheduled for its first voyage later this year. The Treasure is going to feature new dining offerings including lounges based on the Haunted Mansion and the Jungle Cruise and a restaurant themed to Coco. Now Disney has revealed the ship will also feature another lounge themed to a classic animated feature from the company’s storied past.
Travel continues to change, specifically when we’re talking about the differences between how different generations travel.
Magic Kingdom
In general, it seems like people are traveling now more than ever, which, believe it or not, poses some new challenges for Disney World. There are some Disney World hotel trends we think we’ll be seeing soon, too. Millennials and Gen Z are already making an impact on the travel industry, meaning that many travel companies, like Disney Cruise Line, have to figure out a new way to appeal to those travelers. Gen Z, in particular, is really shaking things up, and there’s one longtime travel trend they’re just ignoring.
