food IS a theme park
We’re headed to the Fort Wilderness Resort to check out the bar-style eats — and a cocktail or two — at Crockett’s Tavern. With an extensive cocktail menu and some classic bar snacks, is Crockett’s Tavern an enjoyable place to spend an evening?
Love the camp atmosphere? You’ll probably love Crockett’s Tavern!
We tried every food choice on the menu here, so we have all the details to share!
Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ is a fan-favorite Disney Springs location known for delicious down home Southern Florida cooking.

Whether you visit Homecomin’ for the Southern eats or the Shine Bar drinks, moonshine is the name of the cocktail game here. Homecomin’ is especially known for their moonshine drinks on tap and now there’s an option to try all five moonshine drinks at once!
Try the gray stuff, it’s delicious! Seriously, though, gray gets a bad rap.

Just because it’s not the prettiest color in the crayon box doesn’t mean it should be shunned! For proof, we tried a new GRAY cocktail in Disney World that even Lumière would approve of!
When we heard one of our favorite Southern-style restaurants would be reopening in Disney Springs, there was talk of Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ offering their signature moonshine cocktails in some kind of BULK form. Naturally, we were wildly intrigued by this notion!
Homecomin’
Well, the restaurant has been successfully reopened for several weeks now (they’ve even started doing their Rise and Shine Brunch on the weekends again!) and now we’ve just found out the to-go moonshine jugs have finally ARRIVED!
It seems like just yesterday we learned that Homecomin’ by Chef Art Smith was getting a new patio bar, and today we noticed some new signage as sweet as sweet tea!

That’s right, the new patio bar is putting its finishing touches on and looks to be just about ready to open.
We won’t lie, we have a hankerin’ for some good homestyle cooking.

And soon we’ll be able to have just that since Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ is set to reopen in Disney Springs on June 17th! We’ve got some news about some of the changes we’ll see at Homecomin’ when we’re chowing down on fried chicken and one of those changes is TAKE HOME MOONSHINE. Yes, we are freaking out. Let’s take a look!
Christmas is over, but the New Year is just around the corner!

And, while the Christmas trees are down and the presents are put away, you can still treat yo’self with a merch and FREE drink duo in Disney World!

I hope that you’re sitting down.
Because we have a ton of pictures and details to share with you about Chef Art Smith’s Homecoming Florida Kitchen and Southern Shine!
The restaurant opened with fanfare and plenty of rave reviews. And we were right there with you as we shared a first look!
If you can believe it, we’ve been back to Homecoming Florida Kitchen (hereafter shortened to HFK to save my fingers extra typing) again since opening day. As a result, we have lots of variety to share with you about this special spot.
This is a place that beckons you to slow down and sit a spell. So to begin, let’s take a nice, leisurely look around.
You’ll find HFK right in the heart of Disney Springs, where the Town Center and The Landing come together.

While the outside may look a little Plain Jane at first inspection, you may form a different opinion after your initial look. Tons of windows, shaded in part by the metal hip roof that overhangs them, is reminiscent of the Florida Vernacular style of architecture. I love that you don’t find a single ounce of faux stucco here — the building choice of most Florida homebuilders these days. [Read more…]
