food IS a theme park
It’s no secret: here at DFB, we love cheese.
End Zone Food Court
Whether it’s the plastic variety to go with our Corn Dog Nuggets or a fancy Artisinal Cheese Board at Wine Bar George — we don’t discriminate! One of our favorite ways to eat the golden goodness is smothered in pasta. Macaroni and cheese abounds in Disney World, and we’re taking a look at two varieties that are topped with barbecued meats in this week’s THROWDOWN.
If you’re planning to go to Disney World sometime this year, we bet you’re making a list of what tasty food you want to try!
Cinderella Castle
And, a list is a good idea, because there are SO many different food items to choose from. Between the new restaurants, seasonal snacks, menu changes, and EPCOT festivals, it might seem like your list is just getting longer and longer. But, we’re here to help you narrow it down!
You all know we love a fun food hack, and we recently tried one at Flame Tree Barbecue in Disney’s Animal Kingdom that is WILD!
Flame Tree Barbecue
Flame Tree Barbecue is a fast food spot in Animal Kingdom, just past and to the right of the Tree of Life. You can nosh on barbecue classics on a lush outdoor patio overlooking Discovery River. On our most recent visit, we created an entree mashup from two different dishes, and LOVED the result! [Read more…]
Move over, Flame Tree Barbecue: we found some more really good mac and cheese in Disney World.
Disney’s Beach Club Resort
You may know that we LOVE our cheese here at DFB. Whether that’s grilled cheese, plastic cheese, cheesecake…we’ll take what we can get! So of course, we’ve gotta tell you about an underrated — but super tasty — mac and cheese over at Disney’s Beach Club Resort.
Jambo friends! It’s time for another roundup of What’s New in Animal Kingdom!

Disney World is no stranger to introducing over-the-top treats that have price tags to match. And while some of the fancy and $$$$$$ eats are totally NOT worth the cost, there are a few that for sure ARE!

Picture it: A plate full of Baked Macaroni and Cheese.
On top of that, a pile of Flame Tree Barbecue’s Pulled Pork.
On top of THAT, another Flame Tree favorite: Onion Rings!
And on the side? Just a bit of coleslaw to provide a hint of cooling tang to the entire dish.
Well, guess what? You don’t have to simply imagine it — because the fine folks at Animal Kingdom’s Flame Tree Barbecue have made it a reality!
You’ll see it on the updated menu, where the Baked Macaroni & Cheese with Pulled Pork Topped with Onion Rings and Coleslaw has replaced the Smoked Turkey Sandwich.

You’ll notice a difference in presentation, though, from the menu.
Was your mouth totally watering a while back when we gave you a first look at the Baked Mac and Cheese creations at Eight Spoon Cafe in Disney’s Animal Kingdom? Mine totally was. And today, we’re back to share more — in our latest DFB Video all about this special little corner of the ‘World.
I seriously lie awake at night, planning the very next time I get to take in one of these Baked Mac and Cheese treats. Can’t you practically smell that melty cheese and tangy barbecue? Sigh.
Happy weekend and happy spring (a few days late)! We hope you’re having a wonderful weekend. Now it’s time to sit back, relax, and check out the latest in Disney food news!
