food IS a theme park
Be sure to check out our list of restaurants in the Magic Kingdom.
If there’s one thing that we love here at DFB, it’s a new Disney World restaurant!
Magic Kingdom
We get SO hyped any time that Disney announces a new place to dine in the parks or resorts, and coming in 2025, we’ve got a few new spots to add to that list. One of those places is a lounge coming to Magic Kingdom, and we just got more information about when it’s opening!
Disney World may be known as the Most Magical Place on Earth, but that doesn’t mean it’s all magic, all the time.
Cinderella Castle
In fact, things go wrong at the Disney parks probably more often than you realize — they’re just really, really good at fixing any problems in a relatively quick manner. And today, folks hoping to enjoy all that Magic Kingdom has to offer are realizing just how often things can go wrong!
When it comes to iconic Disney World rides, Magic Kingdom is THE place to be.
Space Mountain
Let’s face it — Magic Kingdom was the first EVER Disney World park, so the classic rides that remain are just timeless. Sure, TRON Lightcycle / Run is thrilling and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure still has that new smell, but is anything more fun than riding Space Mountain in Tomorrowland (okay, if you’re older, maybe “fun” isn’t the right word…but we’ll get to that). However, we’ve got a new set of rules that we think Space Mountain needs.
If you don’t already know about the gloriousness that is plastic cheese, welcome. If you do, welcome back. While we call it plastic cheese here at DFB, it is technically called cheese sauce at Disney World, but we really feel like plastic cheese does a better job of encapsulating the deliciousness that is cheese sauce.
Plastic Cheese
Plastic cheese elevates a number of items at Disney World including, but not limited to, corn dog nuggets and pretzels. There is nothing quite like sitting in front of Cinderella Castle chowing down on some Corn Dog Nuggets and Cheese Sauce from Casey’s Corner. Pure perfection in our books.
Let’s play a game called, “Which major celebrity visited Disney World this week?” because, at this rate, it seems like someone famous is stopping by at LEAST once every few days. As they say on one of our favorite Magic Kingdom rides, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover, “You never know who you might see!”

Alright, before we show you, let’s all place our bets. Will it be Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson? Pop icon Sabrina Carpenter? Musical legend Ariana Grande? We’ll give you a hint: they love the idea of summer, and sun, and all things hot…
Sorry, Pop Century fans, but we have a bit of bad news for you.
Pop Century Resort
There has been ongoing construction at Disney’s Pop Century Resort, and while it was supposed to be done this week, it has now been extended once again. Luckily, it’s not all bad news, though! Let’s find out what Everything Pop Dining & Shopping construction will continue and what is done.
Sure, people like to make jokes about the classic “it’s a small world” song, but you cannot deny that the charming little tune has endured for decades. This simple, slow-moving Disney attraction is endearing, colorful, and universally loved. It’s just a classic!
“it’s a small world”
From Disneyland Park in Anaheim to Magic Kingdom to Tokyo Disneyland, this attraction reaches people from all over the world — even Disneyland Paris and Hong Kong Disneyland have a version of this ride. So, who’s behind the beloved song that accompanies the ride? Two incredibly talented songwriters Disney fans might recognize — Richard and Robert Sherman.
Yes, we’ve been celebrating the holiday season since November 1st, but now that Thanksgiving is out of the way, we’re ready to put our hearts and souls into the celebration.
It’s that time of year!
That means eating even MORE holiday snacks in Disney World (obviously), as well as continuing to enjoy the holiday decorations, gingerbread displays, and more! Then there are TWO holiday parties: Jollywood Nights and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. However, we’ve got big plans to stay at home on December 1st because something EPIC is happening on our TVs on that date: the Wonderful World of Disney: Holiday Spectacular.
We here at DFB like to think of ourselves as Disney scientists.
