By Leave a Comment

Lamplight Lounge is a laid-back, Pixar-themed spot with a great view of Disney’s California Adventure Park and great eats! We absolutely love the lobster nachos, great drinks, and the amazing atmosphere of this waterfront spot!

The Polite Pig in Disney Springs is a spot that serves up delicious barbecue and an excellent selection of drinks, including a wide array of Bourbons and Rye Whiskeys! In past years, restaurants at Disney Springs like Polite Pig have participated in the Disney Springs Flavors of Florida, an event featuring dishes that highlight ingredients from the Sunshine State!

This year, Flavors of Florida is back at Disney Springs from July 6th to August 12th! So, of course, we tried everything Polite Pig was offering for this event! We tried a key lime pie donut, GATOR, and more in Disney Springs. And now, it’s time to explore the Polite Pig offerings!

If you know anything about Florida, then you’ll know there is a history between citrus fruits, like oranges, that play right into the state’s entertainment, food offerings, and more!

Amorette’s

And, that’s why Disney World has its own special connection with the Florida Citrus Commission, who helped bring the ever-famous Orange Bird to life in the parks. So, it’s no surprise that Disney Springs is going all out for the Flavors of Florida event with a Key lime milkshake, Key lime donut, watermelon Dole Whip, Key lime cookies, Orange Blossom Cupcake, and more! Of course, we couldn’t resist heading back for another taste of the ongoing event…but, this treat wasn’t what we expected!

The Disney Dining Plan Change You Totally Forgot About!

By 4 Comments

While many Disney World staples are reopening and returning around the parks, there are still a few things that remain a mystery!

Cinderella Castle

We know that Trail’s End Restaurant at The Campsites at Disney’s Fort Wilderness is reopening, but we still haven’t heard anything about the beloved Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue. There’s no word on if or when FastPass+ is coming back, and we’re still unsure if parades are returning, as it’s looking like cavalcades are here to stay for a while. One of the big things Disney hasn’t brought back yet is the Disney Dining Plan, but recently they announced that it WILL be returning! So, we wanted to remind you of a change to the plan that happened RIGHT before the closures that you may have forgotten about!
