There are HUNDREDS of restaurants all over Disney World, and while it’s a lot to keep up with them all, it helps that we’re in the parks nearly every day checking things out, and our team at home constantly stays up-to-date on Disney’s website and menu changes. Whenever a viral trend takes over the internet, we start to watch Disney even closer, because it’s usually only a matter of time before they join in on it. We were pretty surprised when Disney didn’t jump on the Dubai chocolate trend within months of it becoming popular and then STAYING popular, but it appears now that’s all changed!
Now is the perfect time to start planning your trip to Universal Orlando!

Halloween is THIS Friday, and while we cannot believe that the month flew by so quickly, it also means we’re closer to one of our FAVORITE parts of the Halloween season in Disney World.
Yo-Ho, Yo-Ho!
Yes, we love Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, but we ALSO are big fans of a particular offering over at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort — the Halloween Golf Cart Parade. This event is so popular, in fact, that only a very SELECT group of people can attend — are you one of those lucky few?
Disney World? FUN! Unexpected costs? Not so much.

Today, we’re EXPOSING the hidden Disney World costs that YOU’RE overlooking (to make sure they’re NOT gonna go under your radar ANY longer).

Have you been wondering when Magic Kingdom’s new snack spot might open? We recently learned that Cool Ship has permanently closed in Tomorrowland, but it’s being replaced by a new snack stand called AstroFizz.

AstroFizz will be serving up popcorn, churros, and drinks, but Disney didn’t confirm an opening date for the new dining spot. HOWEVER, Disney did sort of already confirm when it would be open…and that is by November 7th. We’ll tell you why we think this.
Disney+ is growing once again. Disney’s Hulu + Live TV business will now include content from FuboTV Inc., thanks to a new deal. The partnership combines Fubo’s business with Disney’s Hulu + Live TV business.

FuboTV Inc. and The Walt Disney Company announced they have closed a transaction to combine Fubo and Hulu + Live TV. This deal creates the sixth-largest Pay TV company in the U.S, with nearly 6 million subscribers in North America. Fubo and Hulu + Live TV customers will now be able to watch over 55,000 live sporting events, along with “entertainment-focused programming offerings.”
I’m a sucker for seasonal decorations at theme parks. There’s just something so beautiful about seeing a park I know and love, with twinkling lights and garland, turned into a winter wonderland, despite being in Orlando, Florida.
Ready for the holidays!
This is our first winter season with Epic Universe, Universal Orlando’s newest addition, and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter — Ministry of Magic just got a festive makeover with the flick of a wand.
Every snack at Magic Kingdom has its fans, but not every treat can be a Dole Whip or a Mickey Pretzel!
