food IS a theme park
The Animal Kingdom Lodge has several great dining options. Be sure to check out our page on Animal Kingdom Lodge Restaurants for more details.
How’s it going everyone? We made it through another week, so here’s your update on what’s new at the Disney Hotels!
The Grand Floridian is GRAND.
There’s lots to cover this week, so let’s get started!
Disney makes some amazing holiday treats!
Holiday treats are back again!
Snacks are one of our favorite things about the holidays at the Disney parks! We’ve already tried tons of treats at Disney World this holiday season, but we just found a holiday treat that might be a bit too much for even us to finish!
It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
It just got a little more expensive to dine here.
It’s when we stuff our faces full of holiday treats, visit the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, and buy a ton of Disney holiday merchandise. But while we’re having all this festive fun, we’re also keeping an eye on Disney World restaurant menus to see what’s changed.
Disney World’s theme parks aren’t the only places to go for holiday treats! While we enjoyed some returning sweets today like the deliciously spiced Menagerie Cupcake at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, we also checked out the resort hotels to see what festive snacks they had this season!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge
Over at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, we found a pair of treats at The Mara that may be worth going out of your way to try (while you’re there, check out their gorgeous tree in the lobby and say hi to some of their animals!).
Hello, DFB Friends!
Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort
We’ve had a busy weekend full of news coming out of Destination 23 — we’ve learned even MORE about the Star Wars Hotel, we finally confirmed that Festival of Fantasy and Fantasmic! will return to Disney World soon, and we got even more details about MagicBand+. In the meantime, we’ve been checking out the hotels at Disney World, to see what’s new.
Holiday decorations are going up in the Disney World theme parks, gift shops, and hotels.
Holiday Decor at Animal Kingdom Lodge
So far, there have been awesome decorations at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort (home of the giant gingerbread house), Disney’s Beach Club Resort, Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, and more. Now we’re heading into another Disney World hotel to check out the decor that just went up! Let’s go see how these compare with the decorations at other hotels nearby. [Read more…]
Today is a good day in Disney World. Why? Because Business Zebra.
Zawadi Marketplace
You might be thinking, “what or who is “Business Zebra?” It’s okay. We’ll explain everything. Sit back, relax, and listen to this wonderful tale.
One of the most wonderful things about going to Disney World is the food — yeah, we’re biased, but that’s what we do!
Time to Dig in!
And when folks in the know think food in Disney World, chances are their thoughts drift to EPCOT. It’s basically a magical, wonderful place for food from around the WORLD — you can have lunch in Italy, a drink in Mexico, a snack in France, and dinner in Germany! But did you know that you can eat around the world at other parts of Disney World without ever stepping foot into EPCOT?
It’s official! Disney World’s 50th anniversary celebration has kicked off!
Animal Kingdom Lodge
Not only have we been in all four theme parks today, but we’ve visited the resorts to see how they are getting in on the celebrations! A good amount of Disney World’s long list of 50th anniversary treats are at the resorts, so let’s check out one of the sweet treats at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge!
Disney World is FILLED with iconic snacks as beloved as the characters and the rides!
Mickey Pretzel
If you’ve been ’round these parts long, you’ve likely heard of Mickey Pretzels, Cheshire Cat Tails, and Dole Whip, but there’s a whole world of lesser-known snacks waiting to be discovered!
