food IS a theme park
We are really, really excited about the upcoming Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure ride.
Ratatouille Ride Vehicle
We like to check in on the France Pavilion a LOT to see what kind of work is being done to get this new attraction ready for opening. Recently, we flew over in the Skyliner and snapped some exciting pics! The France Pavilion expansion looks GOOD, y’all!
The “opening summer 2020” might have come down recently, but one thing’s for sure — while future plans for Spaceship Earth’s refurbishment and the new Mary Poppins attraction have been put on hold, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure will be opening someday — hopefully soon!

In fact, we’ve watched the exterior for brand new attraction take shape at the World Showcase’s France pavilion from the aerial vantage point of Disney’s Skyliner for some time, but now we’ve found a special way to see what’s INSIDE!
All Disney World construction projects stopped shorty after the parks closed on March 16th — which seems like such a long time ago!

But now that many of Disney’s resort hotels reopened on June 22nd, and the Disney World parks have opening dates — Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom on July 11th followed by Epcot and Hollywood Studios on July 15th — we’ve seen work on several job sites resume!
Drinking around the World is one of our favorite pastimes, whether the sips are spiked or non-alcoholic!
Drinks
We’ve tried pretty much ALL of the frozen drinks in the parks. Although we love grabbing new things (and sharing them with you guys ;-D), we’ve found a few frozen sips over the year that have secured a special place in our hearts.
Attention all chocoholics! This next list is for YOU! Disney World is full of tasty chocolate treats, and we’re sharing ten of the absolute best chocolate desserts you can find in the parks and resorts!
We even put chocolate on our PRETZELS!
These are in no particular order (we couldn’t POSSIBLY rank these even if we wanted to) so let’s dig in.
Despite the parks being closed, there are a ton of NEW and exciting things in the works as well as very recent additions to the parks that we can’t wait to check out!

From new rides and attractions to the latest and greatest in Disney World dining, there will be plenty to see and do when we get to return to the parks. Here are 13 new things that we can’t wait to do when Disney World reopens.
While construction appears to have temporarily stopped at Disney World, we spy something new happening over at Epcot!

Thanks to a recent update made to the My Disney Experience app, we’ve got a whole new perspective of the new World Showcase expansion happening around Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure!
Well, it’s true that the four Walt Disney World parks will be closed on St. Patrick’s Day, March 17th, in light of concerns over the Coronavirus, with closure officially effective beginning Monday, March 16th.
Les Vins de France
However, the Cast Members at Les Vins de Chefs de France in Epcot’s France pavilion have still managed to share some St. Patrick’s Day joy a little early by giving a beloved bevvy a green makeover. [Read more…]
Les Halles in the France Pavilion is a fan favorite at Epcot. From savory soups and sandwiches to sweet desserts (and even a FULL baguette you can purchase for under $5.00!), Les Halles has something for just about everyone.
Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie
Amidst the hustle and bustle of the Flower and Garden Festival, we stopped by this tried and true quintessential World Showcase dining location to see if there were any new updates since the last time we visited. First off, we noticed a new Brie-filled Bread Bowl! Then we panicked a bit when we noticed that our beloved FRANGIPANE no longer listed on the menu! After asking, it’s still being offered but it has changed yet again!
We’ve been discovering so many new goodies throughout Epcot today! First, we stumbled across the new Coral Minnie Ears before making our way to France where we spotted a new sign for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure!
Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie
And after ducking into Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie for a quick bite, we just discovered a new item on their menu — and this is where we warn you we hope you’re sitting down!
