News! MAJOR Menu Updates for Disney World’s Chefs de France Ahead of Reopening

By 6 Comments

There have been some exciting developments in the world of Disney dining this week! Chefs de France, which has remained closed since EPCOT reopened in July, started to show some signs of life on its website page, hinting that it may be preparing to welcome guests back! Signs now point to a potential early October opening, although reservations are still unavailable as of this writing and we have yet to hear an official announcement.

As the restaurant prepares to reopen, we CAN announce that we noticed some MAJOR cutbacks to their menu. Once Chefs de France reopens, there will only be a fraction of appetizers, entrees, and desserts to order for lunch and dinner.

CHEERS! This EPCOT Bar Is Officially Serving Beer and Wine Again!

By Leave a Comment

After Disney World reopened, many of its bars remained closed and were unable to serve alcohol to guests, due to a statewide ban of on-premise alcohol consumption at bars. This ban affected any bars that received more than 50% of their gross revenue through alcohol sales.

Recently, though, the state of Florida lifted that ban and allowed bars to reopen at 50% capacity. And we’re starting to see bars at Disney World begin to reopen, too, like the Uzima Springs Pool Bar at Animal Kingdom Lodge, and the Thirsty River Bar, and Dawa Bar at Animal Kingdom.

By Leave a Comment

The 2020 Taste of Epcot International Food and Wine Festival began this year in July with the reopening of the parks, and is scheduled to run through the fall! But this year, we noticed there were fewer booths than what we’ve seen during past festivals.

But, to help take the sting off the lower number of booths, we learned that some of our favorite booths would soon return! And one of those booths, The Alps Booth, already returned in August.

The 10 BEST Disney Cast Member Costumes of All Time!

By 7 Comments

One of the main ideas behind Disney World is that everything is a “show.” That’s why employees in Disney World are called “Cast Members” and why their uniforms are called “costumes.” 

Cast Members are the BEST!

Every single costume you see Cast Members wear has been well thought out as to how it can help tell the story of each particular ride, restaurant, shop, or land. Some costumes have stayed with us over the years and have a special place in our hearts, so let’s look at TEN Disney World costumes that we truly love!
