food IS a theme park
It’s hard to beat Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa when it comes to Christmas cheer during the holiday season.
Grand Gingerbread House
This hotel is known for STUNNING Christmas decorations like a massive tree in the lobby. But the REAL winner of Grand Flo Christmas decor is the grand gingerbread house the pops up this time of year! Now, we’ve got a progress update!
Although Halloween has come and gone, we’re still in a fall mood!
Christmas Treats Arrive in Magic Kingdom
Disney has already started to add holiday decorations to the park, but not everyone is quite ready to switch out pumpkin spice to peppermint just yet. Since the season began, we’ve been trying pumpkin treats all over Disney World including a pumpkin mousse, a pumpkin macaron ice cream sandwich, and a pumpkin donut and cold brew combo. Now Disney has released a pumpkin treat and we had to go check it out!
The resorts around Disney World get decked out for the holiday season, but Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa might just be one of the most beautiful.
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa
From the stunning tree in the lobby to the rest of the holiday decor, this is one resort you’ll want to visit at least once during the holidays. And we haven’t even MENTIONED the grand gingerbread house the resort comes up with every year! [Read more…]
Heading to Disney World soon?
Magic Kingdom
You’ll want to make sure you’re prepared for any of the closures that are happening inside the parks or resorts. Whether for construction, updates, or other changes, Disney World will occasionally close different attractions and other things around the parks. We’re looking around at all the refurbishments going on to see what rides and hotels will NOT be available in November. [Read more…]
Halloween weekend has arrived, which means that the holidays are — quite literally — right around the corner.
Get ready to think about decorating that tree!
And Disney World is gearing up for the season — we’ve already seen holiday decorations in the parks, we got a sneak peek at some of the holiday merchandise we’ll soon find, and we even have a list of holiday treats we can’t wait to try! And now, we’ve got some details about this year’s gingerbread displays.
We’re in that weird part of the year where it’s both Halloween AND Christmas at Disney World.
We’ve got some bad news about the Mickey beignets…
Plus it’s also still the 50th Anniversary Celebration, meaning that we’re pretty much celebrating all three events at once! And while we’re snacking our way around the parks, we’re also trying to keep up with Disney World menu updates to keep you informed of what’s changing around the resort. And we’ll warn you now — one iconic snack is now missing!
Hello, DFB Friends!
Grand Floridian
Well, as you can tell, we’ve been pretty busy covering everything about Disney World’s MASSIVE 50th Anniversary Celebration, and, yes, we ate SO many blue cupcakes! But we also managed to get over to some of Disney World’s hotels to see if anything new was going on with them, so on with the updates!
Is it just us or was September the longest month ever?
Seasonal Pancakes — Pumpkin
Maybe it’s because we just couldn’t wait for Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration to kick-off so that we could eat all the new foods in the parks. We also had a TON of restaurant menu changes, reopenings, and more!
Disney World has rolled out a whopping 150 NEW treats for the 50th Anniversary Celebration! Whether you’re looking for a savory or sweet dish, or you’re looking for a food or drink item, there’s a massive amount of new goodies to try!
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa
