food IS a theme park
It’s almost SUMMER!!!!
Raya and the Last Dragon
And we’re so excited to spend our long summer days eating ice cream, hitting up Blizzard Beach, and sitting at home in our air conditioning watching Disney+.
Can you believe it? It’s almost time for the grand opening of Disney California Adventure’s Avengers Campus!
Look at all those drinks!
And as huge Marvel nerds, we are GEEKING OUT. There’s so much new stuff to look forward to — new food, new merchandise, new attractions, and more. But there are also some brand new DRINKS, and you know we’re all about that.
Attention Marvel fans! The grand opening of Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure is almost here!
WEB Suppliers
Ahead of the grand opening, though, we were invited to a preview to check out everything — the food, the attractions, and more! But right now, let’s look at some of the cool new merchandise available at Avengers Campus.
When it comes to bars, we keep going back to La Cava del Tequila at the Mexico Pavilion at EPCOT.
La Cava del Tequila
We’ve had some great drink experiences there, from an Agave Experience to some unique margaritas (like tomato) and a Not-So-Old-Fashioned. We’ve even had a special edition mezcal there — with grasshoppers! So we pay attention when something new gets added to the menu there!
It’s been a fun week at Disney World.
Watermelon Dole Whip
And as usual, we’ve been busy trying out all the fun snacks, including Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls, a gelato burger, and a groovy 70’s cocktail. But we’ve kept our eye on menu updates at restaurants, and although there aren’t many this week, these are some changes we think you’ll want to know about.
Sprinkles Cupcakes comes up with a lot of fun flavors! And there’s a Sprinkles on each coast — one at Disney Springs in Florida and another in Downtown Disney at Disneyland!
Sprinkles Cupcakes
And although we love their standard flavors that appear from time to time (hello, S’moreo Cupcake), we really dig the special boozy flavors, like Margarita Cupcakes and Banana Fosters Cupcakes (which have rum!).
One of our favorite shops at Disney World is Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe at Magic Kingdom. Here, it’s Christmas EVERY DAY!
It’s Christmas every day!
And you can get a variety of ornaments, Christmas decor, accessories, and more WHENEVER YOU WANT. What’s more fun than that?
Education is very important, and teachers have certainly met some unique challenges over the past year due to the pandemic.
Salt & Straw
But we’ve seen Disney honor teachers over the past year by donating school supplies, and we’ve also seen teachers get special hotel and restaurant discounts.
Disneyland knows how to create some interesting — and often, controversial — snacks.
Corn Dog Time!
Sure, we love those iconic snacks like Churros and Mickey beignets, but we’ve always been intrigued with those snacks that make people lose their minds, like the Pizza Bloody Mary or the Pickle Corn Dog.
This weekend marks the official beginning of summer, and yes, it’s really starting to feel like summer here at Disney World (it’s hot, y’all).
Trilo-Bites
And we’ve already started to indulge in some summery treats including a Watermelon Dole Whip, a Memorial Day cupcake, a 70’s-inspired cocktail, and ice cream from the new ice cream shop at Disney’s Boardwalk Inn! But we just found a new summertime treat today that actually TASTES like summer!
