food IS a theme park
Welcome back, DFB foodies! We’re here with another What’s New at the Monorail Resorts in Disney World.
Monorail in Disney World
We’ve got lots of construction, entertainment, merch, and food updates for ya, so let’s dig on in!
We’ve got huge heart eyes for ‘Ohana at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort — we just don’t always have the funds to indulge in their unlimited tasty meat skewers, teriyaki noodles, and signature bread pudding as often as we’d like to! (Especially dem noods!)
‘Ohana
And while we’ve always had a knack for finding crafty ways to get our favorite ‘Ohana eats on without booking a Dining Reservation for the super spendy restaurant — like this super under the radar $60 twilight feast or how you can secretly get ‘Ohana’s famous bread pudding after 4PM at Tambu Lounge — we just unearthed even more ‘Ohana secret menu items!
We’re happy to report that our dear friend Avocado Toast is STILL having a moment at Disney World as we just discovered a new version of this super-trendy eat!
Avocado Toast
Is it a meal? Is it a snack? Who really knows! What we DO know is where you can get your hands on this tasty little number!
Hey everybody! It’s time for another roundup of What’s New in Epcot!
Spaceship Earth
With the Epcot transformation currently underway, along with the recent price increases, and new Star Wars merch that’s been flooding into Disney World lately, there’s much to discuss, so let’s get started!
Something’s blowing into Florida from the Windy City, and we’re not just talking ’bout the cooler weather!

You midwesterners will know how exciting this news is, as the beloved Chicago-style restaurant chain has just announced it will be opening its third location in Florida right next to Disney World!
Hey, all you POG-aholics! If you can’t get enough of the tasty passion fruit, orange, and guava juice concoction that can be found at places like ‘Ohana and Tusker House… You may be happy to know that we just discovered a new tasty incarnation of this glass of liquid sunshine!
Pineapple, Orange, Guava Juice (POG)
Get ready to meet POG juice’s slightly more sophisticated, (but just as yummy!) cousin, the Frozen POG Wine Slushie!
Um…in case you haven’t noticed…the Disneyverse is EXPLODING with news right now!!!
Spaceship Earth
From that unfortunate Skyliner Gondola System incident and the debut of Epcot Forever to the new (and AWESOME!) Epcot Experience and PRICE INCREASES (but also Mega Hotel DISCOUNTS?!), so much has happened since the start of October!!
Can you believe we’re only 6 weeks away from Frozen 2‘s release?!

While we’ve seen the Arendelle Aqua treats around the parks, the newest dessert blowing into Disney World is almost as sweet as the Arendelle sisters themselves!
Whenever a new land opens at Walt Disney World, the hype is always extremely real. But we all know that like anything else, that excitement can flicker out pretty quickly (AKA any YA novel fandom).
Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run in Disney World
The question is: how do you test if a land is a hit in Disney after it opens? It’s not only its initial popularity that keeps it high on the list but the continual visits from guests, how long the wait times are, and even what’s inside the land itself (still not over the Viewmaster slides in Toy Story Land tbh). And the differences between Pandora’s opening in 2017 and Galaxy’s Edge’s opening this year seem to show — at least anecdotally — that the two don’t stack up very similarly in terms of overall popularity.
Disney’s Swan and Dolphin Resorts have always had some pretty cool places to grab a bite and relax. There is Swan’s Java Bar and Dolphin’s Fuel for those in need of a quick caffeine fix. There’s Dolphin’s Picabu, which is a 24-hour grab and go spot where you can snag a pick-me-up at any hour of the day.
Chill
Now Disney’s Swan has just opened its newest spot to kick back and ease into your evening — Chill!
