Felt Cute, Might Delete Later — 9 Times Disney Undid a Controversial Change

By 9 Comments

Sometimes Disney makes some decisions that leave many of us scratching our heads.

Magic Kingdom

Remember that octopus drink that Disney World offered for the 50th Anniversary? Yeah, that was…weird. Then there have been some controversies with menu items when Disney removed popular foods and replaced with them something subpar (Sleepy Hollow in Magic Kingdom, we’re looking at you). Sometimes, though, Disney fans are loud enough that we think Disney MUST be paying attention because things do occasionally change after public outcry.

In order to find some of Disney World’s best meals, you’ll need to leave the parks.

Sure, we love the Cheeseburger Springs Rolls in Magic Kingdom, and Flame Tree Barbecue’s Pulled Pork Fries in Disney’s Animal Kingdom are iconic. But, Disney World’s hotels are full of some eats that you don’t want to miss! From Tonga Toast to Mickey Beignets, there are so many hidden gems outside of the parks. Over at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — Riverside, there’s a quick-service dining spot nestled along the water — Riverside Mill Food Court. I stopped by for lunch recently to see how it compares to some of our other favorite hotel spots — read on for the full review!

Dining in Disney World can certainly be done on a whim. And we do love to grab a new treat when we see one!

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!

Should you LEAVE Magic Kingdom to eat?

Disney’s Grand Floridian

While there are a few tasty snacks and treats inside this popular park, we usually recommend heading out to one of the nearby hotels for your meals.

Steakhouse 71, ‘Ohana, and California Grill are a few of our favorite sit-down restaurants, but what about counter-service meals? Come with us to test out a fast food-style restaurant that’s just a Monorail ride away from Magic Kingdom. [Read more…]
