We’ve all been there: It’s a screaming hot day at Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom, and our schedule for the day doesn’t get us out of the sun’s persistent rays for long stretches of time. We’re having a blast (of course!), but we’re about to melt. Enter: Shave Ice!
Animal Kingdom Shave Ice
This sweet and icy treat has been a seasonal part of the Animal Kingdom food scene for a couple of years, and it can now be found in the area of Harambe Market (not to be mistaken for Harambe Fruit Market closer to Kilimanjaro Safari). It shows up every once in a while — it’s not guaranteed to be there on your visit — and when it does, it’s usually a hot day, making Shave Ice very welcome! [Read more…]

Where better to celebrate Valentine’s Day (all month long!) than at Disneyland’s Candy Palace? Here you’ll find lighted cases full of awesome candies, chocolates, and sweets that are perfect for celebrating your loved ones (or your loved self!).

(Click here to see what the traditional patties are all about, too!)

It’s time to head to Flavortown with another visit to Guy Fieri-helmed Chicken Guy! in Disney Springs. This quick service spot arrived on the scene last August, and we thought it was great and affordably-priced.
But honestly, over the past year it’s become a must-do for me on my Disney trips. I can’t stay away!
Chicken Guy!
I love just about everything here — sandwiches, tenders, fries, mac and cheese, sauces…
Buffalo Sauce!
OK, I’m particularly drawn to the sauces…as you can see. But don’t worry: you can get more than Buffalo. I just don’t.
