food IS a theme park
If there’s one thing we love, it’s a Disney Corn Dog!
Pickle Dog!
And ever since Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs opened at Disney’s BoardWalk, they’ve been serving up soooo many fried foods on a stick!
Well, we survived the 4th of July in Disney World and even got to eat a few patriotic treats in the process.

Of course, now that the holiday has passed, we’re looking forward to Halloween season in Disney World because the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is only a little over a month away. Yep, time flies! In the meantime, we’ve been checking out some new foods and drinks in the parks, and keeping an eye on restaurant menus. So let’s take a look at what Disney World restaurant menus changed this week.
Okay, so you know how excited we were when Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs finally opened in Disney World last year.
Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs
Now, we’ve been big fans of Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs in Disneyland for YEARS, and we’ve even tried the viral Pickle Corn Dog that EVERYONE was talking about at one point (and we liked it). But having a Blue Ribbon in Disney World means we get to try even MORE varieties of corn dogs, and a new corn dog just arrived at the location on Disney’s BoardWalk that we NEED to talk about because it’s CHEESY (and you know how we feel about cheese…we LOVE IT).
Disney World has leaned into the chaos a little this week.

For example, we found a non-caramel snack at Karamell-Küche in EPCOT. We went through a flurry of emotions when Sleepy Hollow Refreshments in Magic Kingdom brought back the OLD waffles. One of our favorite foods at a Disney World hotel was a…hotdog (okay, so maybe we leaned into the chaos a bit, too). And like always, Disney World restaurant menus got updates.
Hold up, BoardWalk fans! One of your favorite stops might be closed during your visit.

This lounge will be closed for only a few days, and Disney is even relocating the menu to another location, so you can still get your fix.
Well, it has CERTAINLY been a big week for Disney World news, right?
Pinocchio Cookie Tart
We finally got LOADS of new details about the Cars expansion coming to Frontierland, including that it will be called Piston Peak, and that it will introduce some new characters into the Cars universe (now if only Disney would drop some hints about what kind of FOOD this expansion will have — we have questions!). Anyway, speaking of food, we’ve been monitoring menu changes at Disney World restaurants all week, so let’s take a look at what’s been updated.
Hello from Disney World!
Macaron from Les Halles in EPCOT
Yep, we’re back in Disney World this week, where we ate five snacks from the ever-popular Les Halles in EPCOT’s France Pavilion (why not, right?). We’re also saying goodbye to Mama Melrose’s in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, which closed its doors FOREVER. But that doesn’t stop Disney World from changing menus at its existing restaurants — oh no, and we’ve got quite a few menu updates to share with you this week.
Is it too early to start thinking about Christmas?

If you ask Disney World, the answer is no. Disney knows a thing or two about celebrating all holidays… especially early. In most cases, we see Halloween decorations start popping up in early August, but hey, we aren’t complaining!
Well, we have some good and, unfortunately, bad news for those who have been patiently waiting for Disney World to transform into a winter wonderland.
It’s no secret that we love The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn. It’s just one of those super special places in Disney World where you can have a fancy meal and an even fancier slice of cake.
The Cake Bake Shop
Now, don’t get us wrong — this is not somewhere you’d want to eat every day of your Disney World trip, but it is where you go for a special occasion (or if you just want to feel special). However, we do return here often, especially when new menu items drop. Well, five new menu items have arrived at The Cake Bake Shop and you bet we dropped everything to go check them out.
When sweet treat o’clock hits, we’re running to Disney’s BoardWalk Inn!
Disney’s BoardWalk Inn
The BoardWalk has some of our favorite restaurants, like Trattoria al Forno and Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs, but it’s also home to some of the best cake slices on Disney property. Just a short walk from EPCOT is The Cake Bake Shop Bakery, but instead of trying cake, we decided to switch it up and try some PIE!
