food IS a theme park
Disney’s new Riviera Resort officially opens its doors on December 16th!
Disney’s Riviera Resort
We have been eating up every detail and preview coming out of this upcoming resort – from the Cast Member costumes to food options, we have been anticipating opening day! Well, it looks like our wish has been granted a little early this year, because we actually were able to get some glimpses INSIDE the resort!!
The opening of Disney’s Riviera Resort is a little more than a month away (December 16th – counting down the days!), and every new detail coming out has us more and more excited for the newest resort at Disney World!

Today we’re getting a SNEAK PEEK of a walkway tunnel at Disney’s Riviera Resort, which will feature two breathtaking mosaic murals that showcase Disney’s storytelling of European tales.
If your family is like the DFB family then you LOVE the Toy Story movies! They are fun, full of heart, and feature some of our all-time favorite characters.
But even we have to admit we were a little surprised to hear they were making a Toy Story 4! Was it just us, or did Toy Story 3 seem to be the perfect final chapter for Woody, Buzz, and the gang? What more could there possibly be to say?

However, we have found ourselves getting more and more excited as more and more Toy Story has popped up around Walt Disney World and Disneyland. From a special monorail and character meet & greets, to pop up merchandise shops and new treats (like the Forky Eclair or Hamm cookie), there has been no shortage of Woody, Buzz, and the rest of the toys around the parks. In fact — it’s practically been Toy Story 4 Mania! (Pun intended.)
We just got a sneak peek at the brand new “Move It! Shake It! MousekeDance It! Street Party” starting in Disney World’s Magic Kingdom this Friday, January 18 — and we can’t wait to see the parade in person now!

In previous announcements we learned this would be a high-energy, interactive parade celebrating all things Mickey and Minnie Mouse in a Main Street, U.S.A. street party. A new video just posted by Disney gives a behind the scenes look at the prep for this parade, the redecorated floats, and more!
November marks 90 years of fun (and “oh boys!”) courtesy of Mickey Mouse — and the Walt Disney Company is celebrating the main mouse with a two-hour prime-time television event on November 4! It is appropriately named Mickey’s 90th Spectacular — and we got a sneak peek when we attended the taping this weekend!

Just wanted to share a couple more tasting photos from the upcoming Swan and Dolphin Food and Wine Classic, being held on October 8-9, 2010!
You’ll recall earlier this week when we spoke with Tony Porcellini, Swan and Dolphin’s Director of Food and Beverage, and got a sneak peek into the Classic — including what guests will discover when touring the tasting booths and taking part in the Wine Blending seminar at the event.
Today, we have a few more sneak peek photos from the tasting booths — tried and true favorites from Shula’s Steak House and Il Mulino New York Trattoria! [Read more…]
