food IS a theme park
When Halloween Time began last month in Disneyland Resort, we headed to the west coast to show you the best (and creepiest) eats. And what we found at Boardwalk Pizza & Pasta in Disney California Adventure Park was one of our favorites.

Here’s hoping you’re having a great weekend so far! We’re kicking it off with another DFB Video: a full restaurant review of Epcot’s Spice Road Table!
Welcome to Spice Road Table!
This table service restaurant is located in Epcot’s beautiful Morocco Pavilion. And in addition to a lovely setting, it offers indoor and outdoor waterfront dining, fireworks views, and some pretty great cuisine. Find out why we think Spice Road Table is something of a hidden gem in our latest DFB YouTube video! [Read more…]
Oh, boy! We’re going to have some fun today with a Chocolate Sculpture Tour at the 2018 Epcot Food and Wine Festival! You’ll find this lovely annual display at The Chocolate Experience: From Bean to the Bar which is located in the Festival Center.
The Chocolate Experience: From Bean to the Bar
Perhaps you aren’t able to make it to the Food and Wine Festival this year. Or, even if you are, your time might be (understandably) consumed with consuming your Must-Try items at the Festival’s Food Booths. No matter the case, if you aren’t able to see these sculptures at the Festival, we always enjoy having the chance to bring them to you!
Each made-from-chocolate sculpture is created by a pair or team of chefs from a Disney World Resort or Park.
The Epcot Production Bakery created this beautiful and colorful Coco chocolate sculpture. [Read more…]
A trip to the Animal Kingdom is always wild for us as we find so many updates each week! Find out what we found in new menu items, seasonal treats, and merchandise this week!
Hello from the Animal Kingdom
The first thing we found were updated ticket prices at the ticket windows. 🙁
We just shared some new Cinderella merchandise we spotted at Epcot this week, and now we’ve found another new line of home items in Animal Kingdom featuring Cinderella! This line is a little more formal than other lines we’ve seen featuring the princesses lately.
Cinderella Plate
Just like the line at Epcot, these are some more mature renderings of the popular princess. We’re even getting a tiny bit of a toile pattern feel looking at this set.
Holiday Greetings from Hollywood Studios?!! Yes, for some reason the “Christmas Creep” has started and we are seeing Christmas decorations up in Hollywood Studios — as well as some Christmas Merch — sitting right next to the Halloween Merch!
Happy Holidays from Sunset Boulevard
In addition to seeing Christmas arrive here, we also found construction, food, character meet and greets, Skyliner, and merchandise updates all around the park! [Read more…]
All eyes are on the SKIES in Walt Disney World, as construction is well underway for the Disney Skyliner transportation system!
Skyliner Support Tower at Caribbean Beach Resort
From support towers to Skyliner stations, Disney is gearing up for this new transportation system which will connect Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Epcot to four Resorts: Art of Animation, Pop Century, Caribbean Beach and the upcoming Disney’s Riviera Resort. [Read more…]
Remember the Peter Pan Float that came flying into Storybook Treats in Magic Kingdom this summer? Well, looks like Peter has started a trend, because even more snacks based on beloved characters are coming to Magic Kingdom soon! Storybook Treats will soon be home to a Tinkerbell treat!

Starting November 1st, Tink’s Pixie-Dusted Cone will feature the same key lime soft serve as in the Peter Pan Float. It will be topped with white chocolate wings, and garnished with green cotton candy… oh, and Pixie Dust, too, of course!
Then, on November 7th, The Lunching Pad will serve up a new Space Ranger Slush! This Buzz-worthy slush will be layered with purple grape and green apple slush, complete with a green rock candy straw. [Read more…]
We occasionally hear chatter from readers who think Walt Disney World kicks off the Halloween season too early. After all, the first Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party was on August 17 — 2.5 months before the actual holiday and, really, still in the throes of a sweltering summer in central Florida (not unlike today). But one thing you’ve gotta give the Disney Parks props for is providing plenty of seasonal snacks to keep us interested. 😉
Enter this Halloween Cupcake, spotted all over Animal Kingdom!

You’ve probably seen the Elf on the Shelf during the holidays. He’s that rather mischievous plush elf that you, or your family and friends, have hidden around your house during December for your kiddos to find every morning. You know, the one that you think will be SO FUN for your kids but ends up being the bane of your existence throughout the month of December? Yeah, him.
Well, Disney has come up with their own version of Elf on a Shelf (of course)…and we’ve got to say he is the perfect character to be a mischievous “elf”!
Stitch Elf on the Shelf
Yep, it’s Experiment 626, better know as Stitch! Ready moms and dads??? Ready???? [Read more…]
