You know those great boozy drinks that don’t even taste like alcohol?
Clarabelle’s Hand-Scooped Ice Cream
Well, we’ve got a treat for you, friends! Disney California Adventure is giving us MAJOR nostalgia with the newest alcoholic drink coming to the park!

And, we’re about to put on our Baby Yoda Spirit Jersey ’cause there’s a NEW The Mandalorian inspired drink at the Disneyland Hotel!
There’s something sweet and almost kind (but a WAY more on the sweet side!) about one of our FAVORITE Disney cupcakes making a reappearance in Disneyland! (Imagine us doing happy dances, backflips, high kicks, etc!)
Hello, Belle!
And, the best part is that you won’t need any magic mirrors or enchanted roses to try this Beauty and the Beast inspired treat!

World of Disney
We’ve got lots of food and merchandise updates to give you, so let’s dive right on in!
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another DFB Video, and today we’re talking about the best places to eat in Disney World this year!

Buuut, the park tickets aren’t the only plus. While we’ve given you the deets on the early access to Disneyland After Dark tickets and the latest Disneyland AP Phone Case, now you can indulge in NEW eats and treats made just for Annual Passholders!
Over the next few years, you will see some major changes coming to Disney World in preparation for the resort’s 50th Anniversary in 2021. In anticipation of these new experiences, there may be a few changes you want to make if you are planning on visiting in 2020.
Cinderella Castle
Note that you may not be able to make these changes juuuust quite yet. As of this writing, reservations are not available for many of next year’s new attractions and restaurants (but check back with DFB often — you know we’ll let you know as soon as they do!). With that said, here are a few things you will want to consider changing when the time comes!
It’s the start of the new year, and that means Epcot’s Festival of the Arts is just around the corner!
Epcot’s 2019 Festival of the Arts Passport
Although we’ve given you a look at the Disney on Broadway Concert Series, dining packages, workshops, and food coming to the festival this year, we’ve got another sneak peek to share with you!
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort has a LOT of fantastic dining options.
For starters, there’s all-you-care-to-eat ‘Ohana, where family-style sides accompany huge skewers of grilled meat. Then there’s Kona Cafe, where plated table service meals — most with an island twist — fill diners’ stomachs. This one also offers a super fun character breakfast! And we can’t forget Tambu Lounge, where you can get not just the iconic Lapu Lapu (served in a pineapple!) but can also now order up favorite ‘Ohana bites like noodles, chicken wings, and (of course) ‘Ohana Bread Pudding. Then there’s Pineapple Lanai, where you can satisfy your craving for all things Dole Whip. Finally, we have two words for you: Twilight Feast (AKA — the most awesome in-room dining option on earth!).
But if you’re not full on swirls of fruit and Pineapple Coconut Bread, there’s a proper quick service option, too: Capt. Cook’s! Located on the lower level of the Great Ceremonial House with an exterior entrance on the Lagoon-side of the Resort and an interior entrance off the lobby en route to Trader Sam’s, Capt. Cook’s serves up a small menu — much smaller than the large food courts at Moderate and Value Resorts — of both Polynesian-inspired eats and American classics.

We’re trying some of each. So put down that skewer of ‘Ohana’s grilled shrimp; it’s time to grab some counter service eats at Capt. Cook’s! [Read more…]
