food IS a theme park
Hey, pals! We’re back with another DFB Video and today we are talking about how the recent closures could change Disney World forever.
An Empty BoardWalk Resort
We’re living through some unprecedented events and for Disney World, that means the longest park closure in the company’s history.
Disney has really been taking the phrase “the show must go on” to heart. Even with the parks closed, Cast Members and celebrities alike have been keeping the magic going through live streams. La Cava del Tequila’s mixologist, Gustavo Ortega, has been showing us the ins and outs of how to make the specialty drinks you can find in Epcot in our own kitchens.

The bar’s Instagram account is once again going to be talking all things tequila live tomorrow and they will be joined by a very special guest that anyone who watched a lot of 90s television will be able to recognize!
Hurricane season will be upon us sooner than you think and analysts are projecting an above-average season. Uh oh! Does that mean stormy skies around Disney World?
Hurricane Skies in Epcot
It’s possible! We’re wondering what the rest of the year in Disney World is going to look like and hurricane season can have a big effect on that. So, take a look at what the weather analysts are saying with us and we’ll help you figure out how an above-active hurricane season could affect your next Disney trip!
With the current closures in Walt Disney World, the property is primarily empty — even most Cast Members are having to stay away.
Contemporary Resort Heart Message
But some essential Cast Members remain in Disney World to keep things in working order, and last night they had a sweet and visible message to send out to their fellow Cast.
If you’ve been following along at DFB for a while, you know that Via Napoli stole a pizza our hearts from the beginning. Even though there are plenty of exotic foods all around the World Showcase in Epcot, we find ourselves being drawn back to their classic Italian dishes time and again.
Via Napoli
It’s like a trusted friend or coming home after a long time away — it’s become a reliable and comfortable staple for us. So you won’t be surprised that we snuck another trip back to Via Napoli into our last trip to Disney World! We are reporting back on whether one of our favorite pizza spots lived up to our cheesy expectations!
Disney World has seen its fair share of hurricanes over the last few years.
Entrance to Disney World
And according to the 2020 Atlantic hurricane forecast that was just released, a few more could be on the way this year.
With all of us spending more time at home these days, the simple act of brewing a cup of coffee is something the entire family is experiencing more (and filling the house with the sweet aroma of freshly brewed coffee!). We’ve brought you some recipes on how to recreate Joffrey’s coffee at home, but how can we bring the entire family into this experience?
Princess Mugs
And let’s face it: not only do we love coffee, but we also love Disney Princesses. So imagine our delight when we saw those two things come together on shopDisney! We spotted one of the most adorable play sets that can get your own little princess into the wonderful world of brewing a cup of coffee in the morning.
Disney has released a bunch of fun content for us to enjoy while we’re home! Now, we can fill our days with drawing tutorials and baby animals. We can also learn how to think like an Imagineer!

Speaking of Imagineers, Disney is now also offering a special behind-the-scenes look at Walt Disney Imagineering with a new online series!
We’re feeling a strong urge to splurge coming on! Luckily for us, we know all the best places to find some of Disney World’s priciest stuff! Come along with us and let us spoil you, TOO!
Magic Kingdom
Who’s ready to roll like a Disney World VIP? You are? That’s good because here we go!
Loungefly has given us some adorable new merchandise lately like this adorable Minnie Mouse Animal Kingdom backpack! We’re definitely building up our backpack collection to bring to the parks when they reopen!
