food IS a theme park
Spring has officially sprung in Disney World!
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
The EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival is in full swing, and it’s apparently already time for Easter over at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort because the chocolate eggs and Grand Cottage have arrived!
It’s spring at Disney World, and you know what that means!
Happy Spring!
NEW springtime treats are popping up in the parks and resorts. Of course, we’ve seen lots of new seasonal eats at EPCOT for the Flower and Garden Festival, but we’ve also seen lots of new snacks pop up in Disney Springs and the resorts as well! We’ve officially gotten confirmation that we can expect some pretty sweet finds at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort VERY soon.
A hot summer day at Disney World isn’t complete until you’ve had at least one ice cream. And let’s face it, isn’t it almost always summer in Orlando?
Salt and Straw in Disney Springs
A fan-favorite ice cream spot at Disney World is Salt and Straw in Disney Springs. Salt and Straw is known for pushing things to the limit when it comes to experimenting with ice cream flavors. They’re also known to do seasonal series of ice cream flavors that you can only get for a limited time. People RAVE about their cereal-flavored ice cream that comes around each spring.
Dreaming of a seaside getaway filled with ocean breezes, delicious cocktails, and all the seafood your heart desires?
View from the back of Narcoossee’s
Visiting Narcoossee’s Restaurant at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort will get you pretty darn close! This posh seafood restaurant has gone under some serious refurbishment and will officially reopen on April 1st, 2023, with a reimagined menu and atmosphere. Don’t worry though — lots of the fan-favorite options from before will be returning. If you want to visit this spot ASAP, there’s some important info you need to know!
It’s Mardi Gras season, but the French Market Restaurant AND Mint Julep Bar in Disneyland just CLOSED (to make way for the upcoming Tiana’s Palace restaurant). You know the Mint Julep Bar — the place where you could grab the delicious Mickey-shaped beignets at Disneyland? When we heard this news, we panicked a little, not gonna lie.
The most delicious
Of course, Disney knows better than to make us suffer from a lack of Mickey beignets, especially during Mardi Gras. Although the French Market Restaurant is permanently closed, the Mint Julep Bar will reopen later this year as part of Tiana’s Palace. In the meantime, you can grab Mickey beignets from another location at Disneyland!
When it comes to buffets, your experience can either be really good, or really bad. Usually, there’s no in between. Whether you can’t get over how amazing the food was, or you can’t get over how bad the stomach ache was, there’s a lot of talk about buffets — especially at Disney!
You’ll find many a Mickey Waffle at Disney World breakfast buffets!
The good thing about Disney buffets is that some of them actually rank pretty high in our list of favorite restaurants at Disney in general! Yes, they’re that good! To save you some time (and some disappointment) we decided to rank every buffet in Disney World!
One of the best parts of visiting Epcot is drinking around the world.
EPCOT is more than just Drinking Around the World
Guests flock to EPCOT for a chance to try specialty cocktails from each of the countries in EPCOT’s World Showcase. Numerous options are available at each of the 11 countries, ranging from shots of tequila to sweet and refreshing cocktails. While there are tons of drinks to choose from, many of them don’t suit every palate. We’re constantly trying these drinks and letting you know what you should try and what you should skip — based on flavors you like or dislike.
Out of all the amazing drinks you can grab during your trip around the world, we have a few favorites. The drink we’ll be reviewing today is a fan-favorite and takes us into Germany.
Love is in the air, and it smells a lot like new Disney snacks!
All-Star Movies
With Valentine’s Day now less than two weeks away, sugary sweet Valentine’s desserts are popping up all over the parks. We’ve tried lots of unique and intricate Valentine’s Day foods at Disney World, but today we’re taking it back to the basics!
You truly can’t go wrong with a classic sandwich.
Earl of Sandwich
Sandwich lovers typically flock to Earl of Sandwich in Downtown Disney (Disneyland) and Disney Springs (Disney World) for a bite of classic, old-fashioned deliciousness. Disneyland guests were saddened, though, when Earl of Sandwich closed indefinitely in Downtown Disney in January of 2022.
What if we told you there was a Disney restaurant located inside a cavern on a Mysterious Island?

There is — and it’s just as awesome as it sounds. Over at Tokyo DisneySea, Vulcania Restaurant serves as the “geothermal power station” for Captain Nemo’s scientific base, and it also serves up some pretty delicious grub. Come with us to check it out!
