food IS a theme park
Happy Turkey Day, pals! We hope you have some WONDERFUL plans for Thanksgiving today. Just in case you have a little extra time between the cooking, the family, and anything other traditions, we’re bringing you a new DFB Video!
The Big Board
Dining in Disney World means you have LOTS of options — but things can get tricky when there are special diets involved. We want to help YOU tackle Disney World meals when dining on a low-carb or keto diet.
It’s Thanksgiving, and you know what that means! Time to break out the STRETCHY PANTS, bb!
Thanksgiving Cupcake
We here at DFB are no strangers to our stretchy pants. In fact, we might wear them more than any of our other pants — and we’re TOTALLY okay with that. Still, after a BIG day of carbing up (like Thanksgiving!), we do feel the need to sweat those carbs away with a nice workout. And it looks like we’re not the only ones!
As Disney continues to contend with the fiscal consequences of the global health crisis, the mitigation efforts are being felt throughout the company.
Cinderella Castle
A few months ago, Disney announced that 28,000 employees would be laid off as a result of the pandemic. Now, that figure has been updated to reflect an additional 4,000 employees included in the layoffs.
Disney dining can be a curious thing, and at times it can almost seem like a tale of two dining experiences. On the one hand, you can easily find your fair share of cheeseburgers, pizza, plastic cheese, chicken fingers, and corndogs. On the other hand, Disney is no stranger to cranking out solid signature dining restaurants with top-notch service and dishes that would rival many fine-dining restaurants around the world.
Carthay Circle
Our recent visit to Buena Vista Street in Disney’s California Adventure, the newest extension of Downtown Disney to reopen on November 19th, was a perfect example of this juxtaposition. After chowing down on our beloved corndogs over at Award Wieners and eating a rather…sad…cheeseburger at Smokejumpers Grill, we sat down at Carthay Circle Lounge Alfresco Dining for a “total 180.”

Storytellers Statue
Last week, California Governor Gavin Newsom mandated a curfew for the majority of California’s counties that have seen an increase in coronavirus cases. As a way to maintain safety as a priority, Downtown Disney has adopted many health and safety guidelines since its reopening. Today, we heard a new overhead safety message while hanging out there!
