food IS a theme park
Halloween has officially landed at Disney World, and we couldn’t be more excited! The parks are decorated! And the cast members are wearing their Halloween gear!
Disney Princess Dresses for Kids at M. Mouse Mercantile
And now we’ve spotted a sale on Disney Halloween costumes for kids!
Who doesn’t love the many flavors of fall? From pumpkin spice to cinnamon to candy corn flavors, this time of year always has a special place with our taste buds!
Halloween Drinks at Gasparilla Island Grill
We even like fall-flavored drinks! So we decided to try out the three NEW Halloween exclusive drinks (which we recently spotted on Mobile Order) at Gasparilla Island Grill at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa!
Several restaurants in Walt Disney World have reopened recently, while others still remain closed.
Grand Floridian Lobby
We’ve had the opportunity to eat at some reopened restaurants — like Grand Floridian Cafe in Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa — and look at their new health and safety protocols. Now, reservations have become available for another restaurant at the Grand Floridian for dates beginning this weekend!
We’ve been getting our walking shoes ready and keeping an eye on what has always appeared to be a walkway connecting Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa to Magic Kingdom.
Construction Progress as of August 14
Now we’ve got some official confirmation of what this walkway will be.
Over the past several months, we’ve been keeping our eye on the work being done to connect Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa with Magic Kingdom via a new walkway and pedestrian bridge!
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
We hopped on the Monorail today to look at the progress, and it looks like it’s getting closer and closer to being complete!
We’ve been making our way around Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort today, and it was looking pretty empty this afternoon! ANYBODY HOME???
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
Now that we’ve tasted the new Summer Fun Cupcake Trio at Gasparilla Island Grill, it’s time to head on over to M. Mouse Mercantile — Grand Floridian Resort’s gift shop!
Yesterday, Cast Member previews gave us insight into some of the new Walt Disney World construction updates like the reveal of the newly freshened up Cinderella Castle.
Magic Kingdom
We recently saw a curious-looking big blue wall go up in the middle of Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. (Spoiler: it was installed to isolate the visiting NBA players from Disney guests.) While taking a ride on the monorail, we noticed progress on a different Grand Floridian construction project we’ve been keeping our eyes on for a while.
As of August 30, 2020, the prix-fixe starting price at the Chef’s Table dinner at Disney World’s premier Victoria & Albert’s Restaurant is going up from $250 per guest to $350 per guest!
Chef’s Table Champagne Toast at Victoria & Albert’s
While we love a signature dining experience like Victoria & Albert’s, there certainly comes a time where we have to wonder if it’s still worth the price. If you’ve been considering booking the Chef’s Table, you now have an additional $100 per person to consider. Let’s break the entire experience down to determine if a $350 dinner at Disney World is really worth it.
With Disney World set to reopen its Disney Vacation Club Resorts on June 22, along with Disney’s Fort Wilderness, we’re ready to head back to some of our favorite hotels on property and catch up on EVERYTHING we’ve missed since March!
Polynesian Village Resort Lobby
But not so fast! While we were perusing which restaurants will open on June 22, we noticed there were SEVERAL dining experiences missing from those lists that made our jaws hit the floor! Here are six restaurants that we are SHOCKED to find will not be a part of their resorts’ initial reopenings.
Disney has reached out in our time of need by giving the people what they truly NEED: food recipes. It’s like they know all we’re doing these days is baking bread! 😉
French Loaf and Olive Oil
And while we are SO appreciative that they’re thinking of us, we couldn’t help but notice they’ve missed the mark JUST A TOUCH in the recipes they’ve been sharing.
We recently shared Disney’s recipe for a “frozen pineapple treat,” and while we love a good “frozen pineapple treat” as much as the next person, Dole Whip, this wasn’t. That got us thinking…what other iconic Disney recipes can we share with our readers? We have a few we think you’re REALLY gonna love.
