food IS a theme park
Yes, you heard that right. Our server lit our meal on fire!
Disney Springs
We love sipping wine, snacking on appetizers, and sitting by the campfire. We love it even more when that fire is on our dish in front of us!
We do NOT have a Disney shopping problem. We promise.
Let’s go shopping
Okay, maybe we really love looking for the latest Disney deals online and searching for the best souvenirs to snag before our vacation, but most of the time, we’re just doing that to share those deals with YOU! (And if we occasionally sneak some things into our own Amazon carts, that’s totally okay. 😉) But today, we’ve rounded up the latest Disney-themed Amazon DEALS and we’re going to do our best to not spend any money while typing up this list. Wish us luck!

Disney’s Wilderness Lodge
Over at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, the Territory Lounge just got a BIG menu overhaul. Disney announced several new snacks and drinks that arrived here recently, and you know we had to try them out ASAP. Come with us to see which of the new items are worth a trip during your next Disney World vacation! [Read more…]

If you’re like us, you’re constantly on the search for the latest discounts on Disney must-haves, because the only thing better than finding a new Disney item for your house or wardrobe is saving a little money on those items! Shopping for Disney merchandise is one of our favorite past times, so we know how quickly it can add up!
So many Ears, so little time!
We’re back once again with some of the biggest Disney deals you can score on Amazon right now! Take a look at some of the latest discoveries, from fashion to home to infinity and beyond!
Oga’s Cantina in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is one of our favorite places to grab a drink in both Disney World and Disneyland!
Oga’s Cantina
They have fun-themed drinks like the Dagobah Slug Slinger and Yub Nub, and even a drink that will make your mouth go numb! Oga’s also has a few snacks on the menu that are…let’s just say, unusual for our planet! The Rodian Ration is an alcoholic sort of jello with boba balls inside (which makes them look like fish eggs, in our opinion). And then there’s the notorious Happabore Sampler. Think of it as a charcuterie and cheese board, but WEIRD!
Alright, guys! Who’s hungry for another totally epic ranking?? We know Chewbacca certainly is! After all, he’s got some skin the game with his Wookiee Cookie!
It’s Chewbacca!
So far, we’ve ranked the lands at Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Animal Kingdom by just their snacks and snacks ALONE! And you probably guessed it — we’re getting ready to hit up the lands of Disney’s Hollywood Studios next!
Hey, everybody! We’re feeling EXTRA fancy today which can only mean one thing!
It’s Mickey!
It’s time to fork over some money on our top five favorite high-dollar snacks at Disney World! Don’t worry — most of these pricier Disney World treats barely top out at ten bucks, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t still super-indulgent!
Deciding where to dine in the World Showcase at Walt Disney World’s Epcot is no easy feat.
And the France Pavilion makes a strong case for itself — as well it should, representing a country whose cuisine is legendary. The dining options in France cover all the bases. Monsieur Paul features signature dining upstairs in the Pavilion, while Les Chefs de France offers table service in true Parisian bistro fashion.
Boulangerie Patisserie les Halles serves up quick service eats like a Jambon Beurre Sandwich and soups — plus stunning pastries. And if you want a frozen treat, L’Artisan des Glaces offers sorbet and ice cream in lovely flavors.
We enjoy all of the dining options in France, but on my most recent visit, I stopped into Les Chefs de France for a table service meal full of French favorites! Does Les Chefs de France live up to the lofty expectations its pedigree belies?
Les Chefs de France
Les Chefs de France is located front and center on the street level of the France Pavilion. You’ll spot the deep red awning over the entrance and the classic French architecture that lets you know you are, indeed, stepping into une autre pays.
Join us in welcoming guest author Corey Patterson with his first review on the Disney Food Blog. Corey starts off at the top of the world with his experience at the California Grill. Take it away, Corey!
Location, location, location. Every one knows these are the three most important aspects in a successful property. However, in the case of California Grill in Disney’s Contemporary Resort, the food outshines even the outstanding location and takes top billing.
For a few years, I had heard that if I couldn’t eat dinner at Victoria and Albert’s (which is on my bucket list), then California Grill was a great alternative. So, when I attended a recent conference in Orlando, I made sure that eating at the top of the Contemporary was on the agenda.
And, I must say, after my first Cali Grill experience, I would wholeheartedly agree with the high praise.
As we arrived at the Contemporary Resort, we were a little unsure of how to get to the restaurant. But signage and friendly cast members quickly pointed out the reception desk on level 2. We checked in and were whisked away in the elevator to the 15th floor at the top of the Contemporary Resort.
Check In Desk
I purposefully made our reservation at California Grill at 9:20 so that we were sure to be there during Wishes, but I was still surprised to see the restaurant so busy at that late hour. I most likely underestimated the crowds for the week and really shouldn’t have been shocked since WDW is getting busier as summer approaches.
Since we made a reservation, we walked right in and didn’t wait more than 10 minutes for our table (which was enough time to grab something from the awesome bar!). A very nice young lady named Sam greeted us when our table was ready and made it a point to explain everything about the restaurant (such as the location of the Terraces and the restrooms,) and even slowly walked us by the open kitchen on the way to the table so we could witness the magic happening there.

While Sam was wonderful, we were a little disappointed when we learned [Read more…]
