food IS a theme park
Hello to all our DFB friends!
Disney’s Contemporary Resort
We’ve been hitting up the Disney World resorts to see what’s new, and we’ve got a few updates for you. So let’s get to it!
Hello from Florida! It’s almost summer and we’ve been busy indulging in some very yummy summer treats!
Peach Melba Cupcake. Yum.
We’re talking about new Starbucks drinks, a boozy cake, and a $20 Cruella cake (and we’d pay that again)! But we’ve also been excited about some restaurant reopenings (‘Ohana – yay!), as well as checking out the menus for restaurants all over Disney World!
When you go to Disney World nearly every day like we do, you see some things… .
Goofy is shocked!
And we’ve certainly seen some odd things: abandoned Dole Whips, lonely balloons, ducks on dates, a throwdown between shoes, and all kinds of other strange happenings. But today, we saw what might be one of the most shocking things ever!
It’s Father’s Day, which means we’re trying out some special treats today!
Le Petit Cafe
We’ve been trying out all the Father’s Day snacks we can find, including one with a strange-looking chocolate cigar on it, a Darth Vader cake that had us in stitches, and a Fruit Tart that sort of blew us away.
Things are beginning to look a lot more normal these days at Disney World.
Welcome back to The Twilight Zone
Temperature checks are gone, masks are optional in most situations for fully-vaccinated guests, social distancing is fading away, and shows — along with fireworks — are coming back!
Happy Father’s Day!!!
Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea Company
We’ve been celebrating Father’s Day all week at Disney World, including eating a ton of special snacks that include a Father’s Day Fruit Tart, an odd dessert with a chocolate cigar, and a funny Darth Vader Father’s Day Petit Cake! But we’ve found a FREE treat for Dad today at Disney Springs!
Okay admit it — you have a LOT of Disney mugs, don’t you? (No judgement, because we do too!)
Pretty yellow mug
The cool thing about Disney mugs is that they’re both fun AND functional, which is why we keep being drawn into grabbing more of them, including a hilariously morbid Haunted Mansion mug, Star Wars Starbucks mugs, a Bao mug that just makes us smile, and a Moana mug with tons of hidden details!
We’re not going to lie, and if you know us, you already know this — we are OBSESSED with Minnie Ears.
So many ears…
Disney just keeps releasing pair after pair, and sometimes it’s hard to keep up! Most recently, we’ve loved the Karlie Kloss Disney Parks Designer Ears, Winnie The Pooh Ears, Mint Ears, and Darth Vader ears! But the Pink BaubleBar Minnie Ears might just be one of our new faves!
As things start to move more back to normal at Disney World, we’re starting to see more and more restaurants and snack spots reopen all over the resort.
BoardWalk To Go
Soon, we’ll be diving into the wonderful Polynesian-inspired fare at ‘Ohana and eating some Latino-inspired food at Maya Grill. And today, we found a new snack spot that has reopened at Disney World!
If you’ve been reading our blog for a while, you know we often sing the praises of one particular bar at EPCOT.
La Cava del Tequila will fully reopen soon!
That bar is La Cava del Tequila at the Mexico Pavilion, and we’ve had some of the best tequilas, margaritas, and cocktails there in all of Disney World.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
