food IS a theme park
We’ve been trying all kinds of holiday treats around Disney World lately!
Animal Kingdom Lodge Lobby
We’ve tried a hidden holiday bar you can’t miss, a tempting snack you should actually SKIP, and a mocha fudge-filled cupcake, and we’re so excited to tell you we’ve found another delicious treat. This one’s over at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge.
Well, we saw a lot of price increases in Disney World this week.
Be Our Guest Restaurant
Some were for food (we’ll get to that in a bit), but we also saw a price increase for Genie+ and the service switched to flexible pricing, meaning you’ll pay even more when demand is high. We’ve touched a little upon the food increases, but here’s the thing — there were a LOT more and we’re unpacking ALL those restaurant menu changes for you right here.
July is over, and you know what that means!!!
We do love that school bread
It means it’s time for SPOOKY SEASON. Yes, Halloween season will begin soon at Disney World and the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween party in TWO YEARS is coming up soon! We can’t wait to check out all the fun Halloween merchandise and eat all those Halloween snacks. But in the meantime, let’s do a bit of a retrospective of July to check out ALL the menu updates we saw at Disney World.
This week, it’s all about the FOOD!!!
Cheshire Cat Paw
That’s because we’ve been eating our way around the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival – SO MUCH amazing food, y’all. That means we checked out the NEW booth that arrived this year. Over in Magic Kingdom, we mourned the loss of the Cheshire Cat Tail, but we did try its replacement. Of course, like always, Disney World menus saw some updates, so let’s have a chat about that!
It was a BUSY month, y’all!
Cinderella Castle’s 50th anniversary makeover is so pretty
We’ve been gearing up for some fun on the Disney Wish, but with June being Pride month in Disney World, we ate a lot of Pride Cake, rainbow cupcakes, and even a rainbow waffle. We also tracked a LOT of menu updates throughout the month, so grab a seat, and we’ll get started!
Disney World is constantly changing, and the same can be said for Disney World dining.
The Pineapple Upside-Down Cake with Dole Whip!
We’re seeing new and returning snacks pop up almost every day. Just this week alone, we were reunited with our much-loved Dole Whip-Topped Pineapple Upside-Down Cake, ate a refreshing new Greek Salad (see? we DO eat healthy sometimes), and started thinking ahead to the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival that starts soon. We also kept an eye on Disney World restaurants and tracked every single menu change that happened.
June has been WILD so far, y’all.
Buzz Lightyear Cone
We’ve even managed to check out a Lightyear-themed snack. We even ate Deviled Egg ice cream!!! But we’re just getting started — because here are ALL the Disney World restaurant menu updates for this past week!
Earth Day has ARRIVED in Disney World, and a great place to celebrate nature and animals is Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge! Disney celebrates holidays big and small, including Earth Day, with specialty treats and more.
Animal Kingdom Lodge is STUNNING!
Today, we’re headed to The Mara in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge to try a FUN new treat! WALL-E fans, you’re gonna like this one. 🌱
Do you have a favorite Disney World hotel?
Do you love the views at the Yacht Club?
Do you love the tropical theming of Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort? Maybe you prefer the beachy vibe at Disney’s Beach Club Resort? Or maybe you feel like they just can’t beat the fun retro vibes of Disney’s Pop Century Resort? Things are constantly changing at the resorts (just like at the parks!), so we constantly visit all the hotels to keep you updated!
We’re seeing a lot of bunnies, flowers, and eggs. That can only mean one thing: Easter has arrived in Disney World! It’s time to pull out your fanciest bonnet (do people still own bonnets?) and assemble your baskets, people. All jellybeans and Peeps must report to the home in preparation for the holiday.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge
For Disney World guests, one of the best ways to prepare for Easter is to try all the new TREATS! We taste all of the seasonal snacks that pop up around the Disney Parks, and Disney has been churning out TONS of yummy treats for Easter. We’ve tried everything from a Carrot Cake Cupcake to fancy mousse so far, and we’ve still got room for more! Today, we went over to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge to see what Easter treats they had to offer.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
