food IS a theme park
Disneyland knows how to create some interesting — and often, controversial — snacks.
Corn Dog Time!
Sure, we love those iconic snacks like Churros and Mickey beignets, but we’ve always been intrigued with those snacks that make people lose their minds, like the Pizza Bloody Mary or the Pickle Corn Dog.
This weekend marks the official beginning of summer, and yes, it’s really starting to feel like summer here at Disney World (it’s hot, y’all).
Trilo-Bites
And we’ve already started to indulge in some summery treats including a Watermelon Dole Whip, a Memorial Day cupcake, a 70’s-inspired cocktail, and ice cream from the new ice cream shop at Disney’s Boardwalk Inn! But we just found a new summertime treat today that actually TASTES like summer!
Hello from Disney World!
Stormalong Bay
We’ve been hanging around the Disney World hotels. But we’ve also been checking out what’s been going on lately. It’s not a lot, but we’ve got all the latest updates for you!
Disney World is welcoming a lot of guests right now for the long holiday weekend. In fact, we’re hearing reports that travel to Orlando this Memorial Day Weekend is close to 2019 tourism levels!
Capt. Cook’s!
If you happen to be one of those many travelers in Disney World over the next few days, we found a specialty cupcake at Capt. Cook’s at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort to commemorate the upcoming holiday.
When it comes to over-the-top snacks, Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew at Disney Springs knows how to truly go OVER the top.
There’s a reason we keep going back to Everglazed…
And we’ve had some truly outrageous — and delightful — creations here. We have some seriously happy memories about trying our first Donut Grilled Cheese (don’t knock it until you try it), a donut that had a peep on it, and a coffee with tiny cookies IN it.
We’ve tried a lot of super interesting snacks at Disney World.
Vivoli il Gelato
We’re talking about fruity potato chips, a Bailey’s brownie sundae, fruit sushi, and more! But today, we tried TWO new snacks involving gelato, and one of them had a spider on it!
If you have a sweet tooth, then Disney World will be your paradise!
SO many places to go for dessert!
There are SO many dessert options, from cookies to cupcakes to soft serve and everything in-between. And if you’re a donut fanatic, then you have to stop by the new Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew shop in Disney Springs. We’ve tried all kinds of over-the-top donuts from this place in the last few months, but today we tried three new ones that may just be some of our favorites!
Looking for breakfast on the go when you’re in Disney World? There are plenty of options to choose from in the parks and resorts!
Contemporary Grounds, the Joffrey’s location at the Contemporary Resort.
You can pick up quick items like the Cinnamon Roll at Gaston’s Tavern in Magic Kingdom or some pastries from Les Halles in EPCOT. You’ll also find Joffrey’s and Starbucks locations all around the property, so there are usually quite a few choices there. The other day, we picked up a quick bite from Joffrey’s, and in true DFB fashion, we just had to share our thoughts! 😜
With Disney World increasing capacity and things getting busier in the parks, we’re starting to see more restaurants and snack spots reopening!
Terra Treats has reopened
Recently, we’ve seen reopening dates for Cape May Cafe at Disney’s Beach Club Resort, and we’ve got word on Tusker House Restaurant reopening at Disney’s Animal Kingdom soon. But today, we were present for the reopening of a snack spot at Disney World!
For non-Disney trips you might be able to pack pretty simply — regular clothes, shoes, toothbrush, etc. But when it comes to Disney, sometimes all bets are off!
When we’re headed here, we OVERPACK!
Even we can often find ourselves packing a LOT of items because we want to be prepared. We’ve already shared a packing list, a list of 12 essentials you need in your park bag, and a look at some of the things even the pros forget to bring to Disney World. But, today we’re focusing on some of the things we pack for our Disney trips that might be considered a bit…well, weird!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
