food IS a theme park
Things are constantly changing in Disney World, and now a fan-favorite attraction has changed in a BIG way.
Let’s take a ride!
The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover is a favorite of many guests, but it’s also a ride that breaks down often and can be somewhat unreliable. If this ride is one of your must-dos and you’re emotionally attached to the most recent version of the dialogue, we have some big news!
Salt & Straw changed how we think about ice cream.
Salt & Straw
With locations at both Disneyland and Disney World, we’re excited to taste new flavors on both coasts. We’ve eaten some interesting creations, too, like Deviled Egg Ice Cream (no, really), Saffron & Honey with Crystalized Flower Petals Ice Cream, and a delicious Roasted Pineapple Coconut Sherbet. So we can’t WAIT for new flavor drops, and an announcement for the next round of flavors is coming soon!
“Hello, I am Baymax, your personal healthcare companion.”
GIANT Baymax
If you’re a fan of Big Hero 6, you’ll know that quote immediately. Baymax is getting a LOT of love lately with a new ride at Tokyo Disneyland, a new series on Disney+, and a GIGANTIC Baymax at Disney’s Hollywood Studios (to celebrate the new series). Now, our favorite personal healthcare companion is a tasty snack at Disney World!
Are you a Star Wars fan?
Dok Ondar has stuff to sell you
We had the opportunity to cover EVERYTHING from the Star Wars Hotel, as well as ALL the big news from this year’s recent Star Wars Celebration, including new Star Wars merchandise coming to Disney Parks. Remember when Disney asked Star Wars fans to vote on the next Legacy Lightsaber Hilt, though? Well, now we know the results of the voting!
Calling ALL Annual Passholders: pull out those calendars! It’s time to mark down some important dates!
Orange Bird Mural
Annual Passholders are able to get some special perks in Disney World — from discounts on hotels, meals, and special events, to exclusive merchandise, and more. They also sometimes get FREE Annual Passholder magnets with some pretty fun designs. And now we’ve got an exciting update about a NEW Annual Passholder magnet coming to Disney World!
The day has arrived. 😮
Oga’s Cantina
We’ve seen all kinds of menu changes impact a variety of restaurants in Disney World. From menu items being entirely removed, to price increases, and new items being added — it’s a big time for change in Disney World when it comes to food. Now, a super popular drink from Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge that we had been keeping a very close eye on for a while has DISAPPEARED. Here’s what we know so far.
If you don’t like change, Disney is NOT the place to go right now.
Disney’s Contemporary Resort
Whether it’s price increases, construction changes, or menu changes — change is the name of the game at the Most Magical Place on Earth these days. One of Disney’s signature spots — California Grill at Disney’s Contemporary Resort — changed in a BIG way for Disney’s 50th Anniversary. It now offers a prix fixe menu as part of the festivities. But recently some changes were made to that menu and some NEW items were added. So, of course, we had to make our way over to this ever-popular place to try them out. Curious to know if these new dishes are things YOU should try? Join us on this food adventure as we find out together!
Disney World has been BUSY recently!
Crowds in Magic Kingdom
Between crowds, new attractions, Resort renovations, and new foods to try, it’s easy to miss out on everything going on in the parks. Luckily, we’re in the parks ALL THE TIME checking out everything new and exciting so you know what to look out for on your next trip. It’s time for another look at what’s new in Magic Kingdom!
Do you recite every line of Haunted Mansion the minute you hear the words, “Welcome, Foolish Mortal?” Well, you’re not alone. This ride is an iconic one for a reason.
Haunted Mansion
So if you love Haunted Mansion like we do, you’re going to want to stock up on the latest gear, right? (Yes, we bought that candle.) This year, you don’t even have to wait until Halloween to get new Haunted Mansion merchandise — new stuff has just arrived in Disney World!
Minnie Ears are a MUST fashion accessory for a trip to Disney World, right?
So many choices!
There are also pairs of ears for just about everyone: from sparkly bedazzled blue ears to Scarlet Witch ears to ears with a cat on them (that also glow in the dark!), there are so many choices. With prices normally around $30, they’re also not TOO harsh on the wallet. But would you pay $500 for a pair of DESIGNER EARS?
