food IS a theme park
Hello and welcome to ANOTHER week packed with news!
Together Again Face Mask
From updates by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) on mask guidance for those who are fully vaccinated to BIG news on Disney World capacity and social distancing — it’s been quite the week. Today we’re breaking down some of the biggest Disney-related news stories you need to know!
We’re slowly seeing things reopen around Disney World!
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster
Recently, Disney has announced reopening dates for Cape May Cafe and Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, and we’ve seen Festival of the Lion King resume shows in Disney’s Animal Kingdom! But over in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, a little food spot is BACK. And we’re so excited to check out this reopened kiosk!
There are a lot of snacks we love in Walt Disney World. (When we say “a lot,” we mean a LOT.)
Delicious fried goodness, if you ask us.
We’re fans of the sweet, the salty, the savory, and especially…the cheesy! And if you’ve been reading our site for a while, then you’ll also know that we’re bread lovers. (Bring on the CARBS!) And in honor of our love of bread, today we’re talking about a very special kind — pretzels. Where can you find the best ones in Disney World? You’re about to find out!
Hello to all our DFB friends! It’s a lovely day for a walk around EPCOT, isn’t it?

We have found LOADS of new stuff, so let’s dive right in! [Read more…]
We’ve been exploring the sights, sounds, and tastes of a newly reopened Walt Disney World!
Magic Kingdom
There have been quite a few changes to the Disney World dining experience. Tables are spaced out, mobile ordering is highly encouraged, and characters have adjusted the way they interact with guests. When we heard California Grill at Disney’s Contemporary Resort was reopening, we just had to head over on opening day and see what is different and what remains the same. Oh yeah, and we ate our way through a TON of food and drinks too!
Maybe it’s not such a big secret that we love Disney snacks — lots and LOTS of Disney snacks.
Spaceship Earth
We’ve already put ourselves through the torturous decisions of ranking the Magic Kingdom lands by snacks AND ranking the lands in Animal Kingdom by their snacks. Whew. Well, we’re suckers for a little decisive turmoil so WE’RE BACK to ranking lands by snacks. This time, we’re examining Epcot’s World Showcase — arguably one of the snackiest spots in all of Disney World! WHICH PAVILION’S SNACKS WILL REIGN SUPREME?
Since we’ve been staying at home, we’ve been baking up a LOT of Disney recipes (and wearing our stretchy pants while we’re doing it, obviously).
And, although there are plenty of great Disney+ shows to watch and DIY activities to do, it’s okay to feel a little anxious about everything going on right now. Buuut, we’ve got some fun ways to help blow off that steam.
What we wouldn’t give right now to have some corn dog nuggets or a bag of Mickey beignets! We aren’t gonna lie, Disney snack withdrawals are hitting us hard right now. So much so that we’ve been hosting an entire ‘March Madness’ tournament to let some of our favorite snacks duke it out for the ultimate snack prize.
Mickey Bar
In addition to being able to re-create some of our favorite Disney snacks at home, we’ve discovered a few places that actually sell some snacks that sure taste like the real thing! Next time you’re out making your weekly grocery trip, check to see if you can grab some of these items! Then listen to some theme park music while you munch on these yummy treats, close your eyes, and maybe it’ll feel like you’re back in the parks!
Sonoma Terrace is getting in on the action this year at the 2020 Disney California Adventure Food and Wine Festival!
2020 Food and Wine Festival
While this lounge normally serves PLENTY of drinks and a few bar snacks, we’re trying out some mainstays and the new selections, which will be served from February 28 until April 21, 2020, to celebrate all things food and wine!
Thanks to the opening of Gran Destino Tower, there are now more dining options than ever at Disney’s Coronado Springs!

Today, we’re kicking it old school and headed to dine at an often overlooked Table Service spot that’s been serving up guests for years.
