We have a lot to share with you this week, so let’s jump right in…
If you’ve been following along at DFB for a while, you know that Via Napoli stole a pizza our hearts from the beginning. Even though there are plenty of exotic foods all around the World Showcase in Epcot, we find ourselves being drawn back to their classic Italian dishes time and again.
Via Napoli
It’s like a trusted friend or coming home after a long time away — it’s become a reliable and comfortable staple for us. So you won’t be surprised that we snuck another trip back to Via Napoli into our last trip to Disney World! We are reporting back on whether one of our favorite pizza spots lived up to our cheesy expectations!
Happy New Year! We’ve been hard at work in the parks scoping out all the latest news for you! First, a few things to remember… .
We have a lot to share with you this week, so let’s jump right in…
Buongiorno from Italy friends! Today we’re heading back to one of our favorite restaurants in all of Epcot for lunch!
The Italy Pavilion
We’ve loved Via Napoli ever since it opened, thanks to its wood fire ovens, incredible pizza, and all the cheesy carby goodness that comes with an Italian meal. However, with so many delicious spots in Epcot and the surrounding resorts to choose from (looking at you, newly re-opened Beaches and Cream), we wouldn’t be very good at our jobs if we only ate here (though we wouldn’t be mad about it.).
So needless to say, anytime we can swing by Via Napoli, we do our happy pizza dance! Let’s get to it shall we?
Ah, Epcot’s Italy pavilion! How we love your sights, smells, and delicious Italian FOODS!
Pizza al Taglio in Epcot’s Italy Pavilion
And even though Epcot’s World Showcase is busy this time of year with the Festival of the Holidays and all, we’re thankful for the crowds because it means Pizza al Taglio is now OPEN!
With Christmas in full swing, we’ve spotted all sorts of chocolate, gingerbread, and peppermint flavors around Disney World!

And, even though we love the seasonal sweets, sometimes you just gotta take it back to the basics. That’s why the latest drink being poured in Epcot is fruity twist you don’t want to miss!
Ciao friends! And welcome back to the 2019 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival!
2019 Epcot Food and Wine Festival
As you may know, this is one of our favorite times of year at Epcot! There is just so much to do and eat — from tasting your way around the Festival Kiosks to attending special events. So far this year we’ve enjoyed several — such as the Mix It! Make It! Celebrate It! Workshop and the Parisian Breakfast. And now we’re headed to one of our favorite pavilions for the Italian Food, Wine vs. Beer Pairing Event!
If you’re heading to Disney World with your fabulous Disney squad, you’re going to want to share some good eats — and we’re talking ultimate foods! And you KNOW that we at DFB know all about THAT!
Beaches & Cream‘s Kitchen Sink is the ULTIMATE ultimate food to share with your Disney squad. This massive sink-bowl is packed with scoops of vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, cookies and cream, and mint chocolate chip ice cream and then topped with every ice cream topping in the restaurant (and a full can of whipped cream!). Yeah, it’s amazing.
Classic Kitchen Sink and Chocolate Lovers Kitchen Sink
The menu says the Kitchen Sink serves four — but if you’re with your squad of more than four, we’re pretty sure you’ll all feel satisfied after this one. [Read more…]
We had a case of wanderlust this week, and instead of getting out the passport and packing, we just hopped over to spend the day in Epcot. Our journey started with some time spent in Future World, followed by a trip around the World Showcase. And boy, did we find a lot new eats and buys for you on this “trip”!
