food IS a theme park
March was a BIG month of news for Disney World and lots of news can sometimes make for surprises!

From dining changes to health measure updates and more, let’s take a look at the four most unexpected things that happened in Disney World in March!
Did you know that you can eat in SPACE in Disney World? (And no, we’re not talking about the Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser hotel). We’re referring to Space 220 in EPCOT, which is located in the World Discovery section of this park! At this restaurant, you’ll board an elevator and head “220 miles above the Earth” to eat your meal in space.

We’ve already eaten just about everything on the menu here for lunch, dinner, and the lounge, but now Disney has added some brand NEW items! Are the latest eats enough to tempt you to make a reservation? Spoiler alert: there’s one dish in particular that we think will be a BIG hit with many guests. Check out our full review of the new items here! [Read more…]
When dining at Disney World, there seems to be an endless amount of choices, from where you’re going to eat to what you’re going to order once you’ve selected your restaurant.

If you feel overwhelmed by the sheer volume of choices to make, one way to make your dining experiences a bit more “streamlined” is by ordering off of a prix fixe menu. Today, we’re going to chat about what exactly these menus are, and why Disney World seems to be more obsessed with them these days!
Disney World is still in the process of reopening certain attractions, hotels, and restaurants. Although Disney’s Wilderness Lodge has been open for a while now, one restaurant remained closed — until now, that is!
Disney’s Wilderness Lodge
Story Book Dining at Artist Point is a character meal that’s offered at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. Here you can meet Snow White, some of the Seven Dwarfs, and maybe even the Evil Queen! We headed into this restaurant today to see what has changed with the food, atmosphere, and character meet and greets since its reopening. [Read more…]
Prix fixe menus, or multi-course meals at a singular fixed price, have become more commonplace around Disney World. More recently, menus at new restaurants like Space 220 are totally centered around the prix fixe experience (EPCOT’s other new restaurant, La Crêperie de Paris, has a prix fixe option on their menu as well). Some long-standing restaurants have shifted to a prix fixe model as well, including Be Our Guest Restaurant, Cinderella’s Royal Table, and the new three-course menu at California Grill for the 50th Anniversary Celebration.

Is this just a slick new way for Disney World to get guests to pay more for more food than they’ll actually eat while disguising it as a bargain?
Whew, there’s been a LOT of news in Disney World lately!
