food IS a theme park
It’s August, you guys! And, you know what that means…
Epcot’s International Food and Wine Festival
It’s Food & Wine Festival month!! And, to kick off the savory AND sweet celebration, we have a sneak peek at the new themed line of merch arriving in Disney World.
New attractions, new restaurants, new hotels — Disney World is getting some MAJOR renovations (that we are extremely excited about) currently.
Riviera Resort Skyliner Construction
With changes in the park happening in full swing, it’s no surprise that the transportation system is getting some pretty big updates to better accommodate guests AND the new developments. So what’s so different about transportation and how does it affect your stay at Disney World? Well, we have some good (and bad!) news for you, friends!
The Skyliner Gondola System isn’t open yet, but we’re trying to get as many little peeks as possible.
France Pavilion and Skyliner in Epcot
While the new transportation system doesn’t open officially until September 29th in Disney World, we’ve seen lots of construction around the parks the past few months. Now, though, you can catch a glimpse of the Skyliner system somewhere new!
Attention, Annual Passholders!! This one’s for you.
Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival begins on August 29, 2019!
Disney World has announced a few complimentary and exclusive items and opportunities at Epcot and Animal Kingdom for Annual Passholders this fall.
We’re BACK with another roundup of What’s New in Epcot!
Spaceship Earth
Today we’ll talk about all the new merchandise, menu updates, and the construction updates we found. Let’s get started!
In Epcot’s Italy Pavilion at Walt Disney World, guests have a few dining options.
Via Napoli, located at the rear of the pavilion, is the most well-known — and rightly so. Via Napoli tosses fantastic pizzas using ingredients that come very close to what’s used in Naples, making it one of our favorite places to get pizza in all the World (find out why here!).
Tutto Italia is a lovely Italian restaurant on the left side of the pavilion as you enter. Here diners twirl pasta and enjoy Italian specialties.
And there are two snack stands from which to purchase frozen treats, too: the Gelato Stand and the Donkey Cart. (The Donkey Cart is a particular favorite because of its fun design and (most recently) wine pops!)
But the last option might be the biggest hidden gem of the pavilion: Tutto Gusto. It’s here that diners enter an Italian wine cellar, dine on small plates, and just generally escape the chaos of Epcot’s World Showcase.

There’s a reason we say Tutto Gusto is a hidden gem. [Read more…]
Breakfast is one of our absolute favorite meals to enjoy at the Disney parks — along with lunch, second lunch, dinner, second dinner… . But in all seriousness, is it just us or does breakfast just seem to taste better at Disney World?

That’s why we’re counting down our top 10 most intriguing breakfast bites to get your morning motor runnin’. What’s on the menu? Let’s take a look!
Regular sandwiches are pretty great and all, but ice cream sandwiches? We could eat them for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert.
The Land Pavilion In Epcot
Disney World has been keeping hush-hush about the Annual Passholder Secret Treat available as a part of Epcot’s V.I.Passholder perks this summer. Today, we discovered that the treat at Sunshine Seasons is an ice cream cookie sandwich and we had to try it for ourselves!

Between Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Epcot’s huge transformation (and so much more), it’s safe to say the Disney theme parks are going through some changes. Amidst these, we have to say goodbye to some well-loved attractions, dining locations, and treats (whether for a temporary time or for good). But don’t worry, there’s still time to enjoy these experiences!
Magic Kingdom
