food IS a theme park
Hello, friends, from Disney’s Animal Kingdom! ROAR!
Animal Kingdom
We took some time to make our way around this WILD park to see what’s new since the last time we were here. So here are all the latest updates!
It’s literally our job to keep an eye on all the food at Disney World, so we like to make sure we keep up with any restaurant menu changes or updates!
Vivoli il Gelato
And although we’ve been busy eating our way around EPCOT’s Festival of the Holidays, trying out cookies, sipping on hot toddies, and nomming on charcuterie boards, we’ve noticed a few restaurant menu changes and updates this week!
We constantly keep an eye out for new menu items at restaurants throughout Disney World.
YeSake Kiosk in Disney Springs
Recently, we discovered a few new things at Disney Springs, including a whole new menu at Vivoli Il Gelato and the addition of cheesy bread (!!!) at Blaze Fast Fire’d Pizza!
After Disney World’s reopening this summer, Disney has continued to clarify its health and safety guidelines, including its requirement that guests wear masks.
Pandora Face Masks
Since the initial announcement, Disney has updated its requirements to the kinds of masks that guests can wear at Disney World, as well as updated its announcements about facial coverings.
Thursday was a whirlwind of Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars news!

During the Disney Investor Day webcast, we learned about a ton of new TV shows and movies, but more importantly, we learned the release dates of some highly-anticipated TV shows and movies!
Hello from EPCOT, DFB friends!
EPCOT
We headed out to take a walk around the park to see what’s new and we’ve got a ton of updates to share! Let’s get started!
Disneyland is closed but Downtown Disney is still offering shopping at select locations and they are still offering special shopping events where guests can nab some exclusive merchandise.
Legacy Hilts
We were wondering if these would still be offered since the stay at home orders were announced. But by the looks of it, they are. The newest shopping event will feature two high-demand Legacy Lightsaber Hilts!
Although it might not seem like it, some celebrities are JUST LIKE US!
Mickey Mouse
Sure, they eat at restaurants we can’t afford, have lives that are WAY bigger than ours, and release blinged-out Minnie ears that cost hundreds of dollars. But many of them are as obsessed with Disney as we are. And that makes them uber-cool. 😎
One of the biggest draws of EPCOT is its colorful World Showcase, where guests can travel around the world in a day!
Morocco Pavilion
But some big changes are happening over at the Morocco Pavilion: Disney will take over operations of the pavilion from its current operating participants. And this is set to happen by the end of the year.
One of the great things about Disney+ is the variety of programming!

We’ve loved all the National Geographic shows and movies on the service such as The Magic of Disney’s Animal Kingdom. These shows are fun AND educational! Today, during the Disney Investor Day webcast, we learned about a ton of new movies from National Geographic coming to Disney+.
