food IS a theme park
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Port Orleans Resort.
Hi, Steve!
And, we’ve got some cute merch AND tasty treats to share with you, so let’s dive right on in!
While Disney World is a place for food and fun, it’s also one of the BEST spots for some seriously awesome selfies!
Get your selfie cam ready!
And combining selfies with COFFEE seems like the perfect duo to us (hellooo, new Insta profile pic).
Hey everybody! It’s time for this week’s roundup of What’s New in Epcot!
Spaceship Earth
This is our weekly magic journey around this Disney World park to see what new construction, food, and merch we can spot!
Disney World seems to be experiencing a strange food trend this week…
Epcot’s China Pavilion
First we saw the Santa hat-toting Cranberry Mickey Brownie followed swiftly by the Mickey’s Santa Cupcake — also suspiciously wearing, you guessed it — a Santa hat!
Now this new holiday snack (which we spotted in Epcot’s China Pavilion of all places!) has us pretty much certain there’s a delicious Christmas treat conspiracy happening right now in Disney World — and trust us, you gotta see what it is!
Holiday treats have been consuming our minds lately. But before we get back to our regularly scheduled programming, we must pause to admire a not often talked about snack.
D-Luxe Burger
We’re talking about the Loaded Fries from the Mobile Order Secret Menu at D-Luxe Burger in Disney Springs!
Step aside egg nog & hot cocoa!
Merry Mashups
Disney is helping us get into the holiday spirit with a recipe for House-Made Horchata.
When you’re in the mood to cool down with a giant cup of ice cream in Disney World, there’s one place that comes to mind — Beaches and Cream!
Beaches & Cream
Located between the Yacht Club and Beach Club Resorts in the Epcot Resort Area, Beaches and Cream is a staple in Disney, serving up ice cream, burgers, hot dogs, and more in a boardwalk-style restaurant. Since August, the beloved shop has been closed for refurbishment. And although there has been a temporary location, we’ve been missing this ice cream sundae stop (where else can you get this MASSIVE Kitchen Sink?!). Luckily, it looks like the refurbishment is coming to a close – and Beaches and Cream might be reopening sooner than you’d think!
No matter how many times you visit the Happiest Place on Earth, there are still surprises and hidden treasures to be found!
Mint Julep Bar
Tucked in the patio area of the French Market Restaurant in New Orleans Square you’ll find one such hidden gem – the Mint Julep Bar! Serving up favorites such as the (non-alcoholic) Disneyland Mint Julep, as well as Mickey Beignets, the Mint Julep Bar is a must-visit for any Disneyland trip. And now when you stop by, you can pick up a commemorative souvenir to remember the experience!
We found out A LOT of stuff last week about Disney’s Riviera Resort including a first look inside its super-luxe new digs, which Disney characters you’ll be able to meet at Topolinos (and a sneak peek at their adorable new costumes!) and, of course, all that shiny new Riviera merch!

And now we’re back with even more info about the FOOD you’ll find at this new hotel when it opens on December 16th!
Disney World is in full go, go, go mode with all the new and exciting things coming to the parks!
Stormtroopers in Rise of the Resistance
Sometimes, there’s just so much going on that you can’t help but miss some of the updates (whoops!). That’s why we’re here to tell you some of the most important news you may have missed this week!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
