food IS a theme park
Disney World hotels are the best, they almost have everything you need…ALMOST everything!
Disney’s Riviera Resort
You’d be shocked at how much shopping we do on Amazon before our Disney vacations. We’ve been to Disney World so many times, we know exactly what it is to look for. If you’ve got that big Disney World trip coming up this summer, you’re not going to want to leave without bringing these Disney World hotel essentials with you! [Read more…]
The FIFA World Cup kicked off this week, and there are so many awesome places in Orlando where you can watch the games. But if you want your soccer match with a side of roller coasters, then we have the spot for you!
CityWalk at Universal Orlando
Universal CityWalk just announced that six venues will host watch parties for the games, and each will offer a specialty World Cup-themed food or beverage! From June 11th through July 19th, you can watch the games over these specialty menu items.
Here at Disney Food Blog, you know we love to go around Disney World trying all sorts of eats, treats, and drinks. This time, we went to one of our favorite lounges at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Tune-In Lounge
We recently stopped by the Tune-In Lounge at Hollywood Studios to see if a new drink there could become a go-to for the summer. Of course, we’re bringing you our full review!
Well, we’re back at Chef Mickey’s again…yeah, yeah, yeah, we always say we may not return, but we pretty much have to because there have been a few times when this character dining experience has surprised us. Plus, the one thing Chef Mickey’s has ALWAYS had going for it is the characters.
We’re back at Chef Mickey’s!
So, we’re back, this time for dinner, and we’re not sure what happened…maybe it was because our expectations were relatively low, but Chef Mickey’s has surprised us…again…and this time, in a good way (or pretty good, if we’re being specific). So let’s talk about it.
There’s so much more to do in Disney Springs than just eat and shop, although there is some really good eating and shopping going on in Disney World’s main shopping and dining district.
Drawn To Life
You can also see some live entertainment, including a Cirque du Soleil show, Drawn To Life, which could be PERFECT for your next Disney World trip. Well, if you’ve been wanting to check out Drawn To Life, now might be the time to buy tickets because they’re now being offered at a huge discount.
Disney World dining rankings are a dangerous little game. You say one restaurant is better than another, and suddenly someone in the comments is sharpening a bread knife over their beloved Via Napoli pizza. We get it. Food is personal. Disney food is extra personal. People have built entire vacation identities around one buffet, one burger, one very specific caramel square from EPCOT.
Stack Burger
But after eating our way through Disney World over and over again, three restaurants rose to the top of the pile. And the funny thing is, they could not be more different.
There’s been so much happening in Disney World recently that sometimes it’s felt a little hard to catch our breath.
A trash can change happened this week!
We love hearing about all the new projects and exciting attractions coming to Disney World, don’t get us wrong, but for the past few weeks, it felt like everything hit at once. Now, though, some of the biggest attractions have opened — The Walt Disney Studios and Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Jessie’s Roundup in Magic Kingdom, Bluey’s Wild World in Disney’s Animal Kingdom — the list goes on. However, that doesn’t mean there aren’t still smaller changes happening around the parks each day, and there are ABSOLUTELY still closures you need to know about if you’re heading into the parks this week.
We love going to Animal Kingdom to see all the adorable animals. There are so many cute critters, from flamingos and otters to giraffes and rhinos. If you’re also an animal lover, then Disney just released the best news you’ll hear all week!

Kendi is a 27-year-old white rhino who has lived at Kilimanjaro Safaris her whole life. So keepers immediately spotted a slight cloudiness in her right eye. Kendi had cataracts, a condition that clouds the eye lens and can lead to blindness if left untreated! Disney took us behind the scenes of Kenzi’s surgery and recovery, and we’re bringing you along.
Disney World just dropped MORE new snacks, EPCOT is getting a brand‑new snack stand and brand‑new trash cans, a baby giraffe has arrived in Animal Kingdom, and Universal is letting you visit their new resort before it even opens.
