food IS a theme park
Happy Holidays from Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Ice cream!
We are so excited to be checking out Jollywood Nights tonight, and there is so much entertainment to enjoy, decorations to admire, characters to meet, and of course, food to eat. We are here to let you know which snacks are worth your precious time and money at this year’s party, and this snack is one we couldn’t stop talking about since it was announced!
Well, it’s been quite a week, hasn’t it? Disney World just threw a ton of announcements at us, including details about price increases for tickets, Annual Passes, and more.

Pretty much EVERY Disney World restaurant also saw price increases this week, but in addition to that, we noticed some other menu updates.
We’ve done nothing but think about food and drinks all week. That’s because the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival has officially kicked off, AND The Beak and Barrel in Magic Kingdom has officially opened.

So yeah, we’ve got food and drinks on the brain (but, really, when do we NOT have food and drinks in mind?). Well, while we’re thinking about it, we’re going through all the Disney World restaurant menu changes we spotted this week. Now, we’ll warn you, we’re a little sad that this round of updates saw one of our favorite snacks disappearing: the Peanut Butter Whoopie Pie in EPCOT.
When it comes to dining at Disney World, you’ve got a TON of options. Want something quick and easy? You’ve got it. Something middle-of-the-road and comforting? Yep, that too. And if you’re looking for something upscale and luxurious, you can find that as well.

We recently stopped by Hollywood Scoops at Hollywood Studios to check out a brand new offering, and now we’re bringing you our FULL review. Is it worth a stop on your next trip to the Most Magical Place on Earth? Find out here!
How is it August already?
Big Wave Dave at Splitsville
We do have to say that we wrapped up July in the best way possible, by creating a SWEET Disney Adults Crawl that features drinks created to celebrate the release of our very own AJ Wolfe’s book, Disney Adults: Exploring (And Falling In Love With) A Magical Subculture. We’ve already fallen in love with one of those treats, but they’re all special, and we hope you enjoy the crawl. In the meantime, though, we’ve got some Disney World restaurant menu changes to share with you.
Well, it has CERTAINLY been a big week for Disney World news, right?
Pinocchio Cookie Tart
We finally got LOADS of new details about the Cars expansion coming to Frontierland, including that it will be called Piston Peak, and that it will introduce some new characters into the Cars universe (now if only Disney would drop some hints about what kind of FOOD this expansion will have — we have questions!). Anyway, speaking of food, we’ve been monitoring menu changes at Disney World restaurants all week, so let’s take a look at what’s been updated.
It’s a great time to be a fan of Disney Villains. Not only is a whole NEW Disney Villains land coming to Magic Kingdom, but a brand new Villains-themed show, Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After, has made its debut in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Hollywood Scoops
To further celebrate all things villainous in Hollywood Studios, Hollywood Scoops is offering some new snacks, including the Hades Ice Cream Float and the Annual Passholder-exclusive Cruella Ice Cream Sundae. We’ve already tried both of those, but we’re back to try the Maleficent Cone…so did it measure up to the Mistress of Evil?
Sure, Disney heroes are kind, noble, and fair. But who seems to have more fun? Listen to this laugh: “MwHAhaHAhaHA.” That’s the laugh of a Disney villain! They may be the societal outcasts, but Disney villains are not afraid to enjoy themselves — dare we say their misdeeds are just their own version of a personal treat?

Speaking of treats, we have some NEW ones to try in Disney World! And, hopefully, you’re seeing the connection here. The new treats are Disney Villain-themed!
Calling all Disney World Annual Passholders! Although some limited-time perks are disappearing soon, there’s a NEW exclusive treat in Hollywood Studios that you’ll want to know about.

Disney sometimes comes out with new treats that are just for Passholders, like the Stitch Cake Cone in EPCOT. The new sundae in Hollywood Studios is the latest perk! [Read more…]
Our girl, Minnie Mouse, sure knows how to rock the dots!
