We’ve been keeping a close eye on EPCOT as Food and Wine Booths have popped up, and we have an update for you today! Let’s take a look at every Food and Wine Booth that’s up right NOW!
Disney cruises are a magical experience. Put Disney characters, delicious dining, and giant pools all on a fancy boat, and then sail that boat to a tropical island? Sounds great to us!

If you’ve ever wished you could have the Disney experience at a more chill, relaxed pace, a Disney cruise is a good choice. So, you need to hear the big news about Fall 2022 Disney cruises!

When it comes to COVID-19, things are changing at a rapid pace.
New health and safety signage
COVID-19 brought quite a few travel restrictions that led to an impact on Florida tourism. Though the Disney park reservation system is still in place to limit capacity, restrictions have been lifting in terms of not only masks but also social distancing and capacity. Now, another country will be lifting travel restrictions that could reflect on the number of park visitors.
EPCOT is full of AMAZING food like decadent ice cream sandwiches and delicious fish and chips.
Oh Canada!
While we love visiting EPCOT’s (mostly year-round) festival booths to eat around the world, sometimes we need a more substantial meal! The quick service locations are great if you don’t want to have a long, leisurely meal, but the table service restaurants are SO worth a couple hours of your time! One of our favorites is Le Cellier Steakhouse in good ol’ Canada, and we recently stopped in to see if it still met our expectations!
Whether you’re a first-timer at EPCOT or you’ve been dozens of times, there are still some things there that a lot of people seem to miss out on!
What a Beautiful View!
Sure, you’ll want to ride Frozen Ever After and Soarin’ and see all the World Showcase pavilions! But there’s SO MUCH MORE to do at EPCOT, including a lot of unique and fun things you might not even know about. Are you sleeping on some of the best gems in EPCOT?!
One thing we love about EPCOT is World Showcase, where we can visit so many countries around the world without ever leaving Disney World!

Okay, so we also love eating all those internationally-inspired snacks and buying merchandise exclusive to specific countries! Oh, and the festivals!
Navigating your way around Disney World can be pretty tough right now.
Ready For Your Next Trip to EPCOT?
Even if you’re a seasoned Disney expert, a lot of things have changed in the parks, especially if you haven’t visited recently. Due to social distancing requirements, many lines stretch can FAR away from their ride entrances. At some stores and other spots, you may find that the back entrance you ALWAYS used to use is now shut and there are more limited entrances and exits.
So, recently we developed a handy-dandy map to help you easily maneuver your way around Magic Kingdom, and now we’ve made a similar map for EPCOT! This might just be the BEST map you’ll use during your upcoming trip.
February might have been a short month, but a LOT has happened at Disney World dining locations!
Gideon’s Bakehouse
There have been some over the top donuts, a lot of new boozy drinks, the coconut pineapple soft-serve swirl of our dreams, and even some new entrees. And we’re compiling the whole list here so you can stay up to date on all the restaurant menu updates at Disney World in February!
We’ve had a busy week at Disney World!
We love you, coconut pineapple Dole Whip swirl, so so much
We’re still seriously hyped up about all the huge announcements surrounding Disney World’s massive 50th anniversary celebration. We’re also wondering what some new construction permits for the theaters at Hollywood Studios might mean. And we’re freaking out over the mermaid unicorns we found at EPCOT — hey, don’t judge us!

Spaceship Earth
We’re constantly visiting the Disney World theme parks and more to see what’s new. During our most recent visit to EPCOT we spotted NEW Minnie ears, saw that a spot that JUST opened was CLOSED(!!), and got a look at lots of construction going on around the park. Join us for a virtual trip around this experimental prototype community of tomorrow to see all of the things that are new there!
