food IS a theme park
We’ve been counting down the days until Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort officially reopens.
We’re glad to be here!
In the meantime, we’ve been checking out all the other reopenings at the resort, including Oasis Bar and Grill, ‘Ohana (for breakfast AND dinner), and Kona Island (did someone say candied bacon?). But we’ve been impatiently waiting for a chance to check out the new Moana-themed rooms at the hotel.
It is a VERY exciting day at Disney World!
Can you guess where we’re going?
Since Disney World’s reopening last year, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort Disney Vacation Club rooms have been open. But as of today, the resort is now fully open including Moana rooms! So, of course, we stopped by to check it out!
Guess what today is?
It’s a very special day!
It’s the official reopening day of Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. And although the Polynesian was previously only open to Disney Vacation Club members, it’s now open to EVERYONE. And we’re here checking everything out, including a special new treat!
We don’t know about you, but all these restaurant and hotel reopenings at Disney World have got us really excited!
Citricos
We can’t wait to revisit places like the Port Orleans Resorts and we were SO excited to finally eat again at ‘Ohana at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. But today takes us to Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, where Citricos has finally reopened!
It’s officially been one year since Disney World reopened!
A LOT has changed at Disney World over the past year!
Over the past year, things have changed drastically at Disney World! We’ve seen the end of temperature checks, the end of mask requirements in most situations, and the end of social distancing. We’re also seeing more people in the parks as both entertainment and fireworks begin to resume.
Lots of things have changed in Disney World recently.
Taking Guest Photos
Fully vaccinated Cast Members are no longer required to wear masks when working indoors or outdoors, fully vaccinated guests are not required to wear masks in most locations in Disney World, pre-shows are back in many spots, and even single rider lines are becoming available again. Today we spotted ANOTHER change that has been made, specifically with regards to Cast Members taking guest photos!
‘Ohana at Disney’s Polynesian Resort is famous for delicious noodles, tender meat, and — oh yeah — the amazing bread pudding!
‘Ohana Bread Pudding
It’s one of our truly favorite foods in all of Disney World for good reason — warm, soft bread pudding, cool vanilla ice cream and that sweet, buttery banana rum sauce! YUM. We’re gonna take you through the recipe step by step so you can enjoy this amazing creation without having to travel to Disney for it! (Although we must note: traveling to Disney is still highly encouraged, just as a general principle.) [Read more…]
Another day, another cupcake! Disney has been coming out with flavor after flavor of these handheld treats! Whether it’s Black Forest or Carrot Cake, Disney has a TON of options when it comes to cupcakes!
Black Forest Cupcake
Recently, we spotted two new cupcake flavors at Candy Cauldron and Goofy’s Candy Company in Disney Springs!
We’ve seen some super fun photo-ops all over Disney World!
Grand Floridian PhotoPass
From a cool Secrets of Sulphur Springs photo-op to a Soul-inspired photo-op to a photo-op with Cinderella’s carriage, we’ve posed for a lot of pictures in front of some fun backgrounds! But Disney World’s newest photo-op is the most interesting we’ve seen yet.
