food IS a theme park
More character dining is returning to Disney World!
Story Book Dining at Artist Point
Story Book Dining at Artist Point is reopening in Disney World soon, and with its reopening comes a revamped prix fixe menu with some changes. Let’s take a look!
Disney World has had a LOT of things reopen over the last year!
You can see Mickey again!
And while we’ve recently seen things like character meet and greets and buffets come back, some things still haven’t returned, like the Disney Dining Plan, certain restaurants, and perks like Minnie Vans. But, we have news about another restaurant that is finally reopening at a Disney hotel soon!
Disney World hotels aren’t your average hotels. These are magical places where magical experiences, meals, and memories occur! They’re also places where RIDICULOUS things can — sometimes — happen!
Caribbean Beach Resort
We’re not talking random cameos from Disney characters, either. No, we’re talking about the MOST ridiculous things to ever happen at Disney World hotels, so buckle up!
There is nothing quite like stepping onto Main Street, U.S.A., and getting that first glimpse of Cinderella Castle, but there’s also nothing like the iconic smells that we get all over Disney World.
We bet you can smell this photo.
We’re talking about that musty — but somehow pleasant — smell of Pirates of the Caribbean, or the smell of baked goods wafting from Main Street Confectionery, or the strong smell of pineapple at Aloha Isle. All these smells instantly create even more magic at the parks!
The Disney World parks aren’t the only ones getting in the festive mood right now.
Christmas Tree in EPCOT
We’ve seen a HUGE gingerbread house over at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and a Little Mermaid-themed gingerbread carousel at Disney’s Beach Club Resort. Now we’re heading to another Disney hotel to see what kind of decorations they’ve got up!
October was QUITE the month at Disney World. So much happened!
Lemon mousse from Space 220
In the past month alone, THREE new restaurants opened (Steakhouse 71, Space 220, and La Crêperie de Paris), the 50th anniversary snacks arrived, AND we were still seeing some Halloween snacks getting introduced. So we’ve got quite a few menu updates to share with you from October.
Hello, DFB Friends!
We had dynamite for breakfast
We’re in that rare time of the year when Halloween is fading away and Christmas is taking over everything. We’ve already seen holiday decorations at Disney World, and we’ve even learned about some of the holiday snacks we can expect this year. But restaurant menus are also continuing to change at the resort, so we’re monitoring all that, too!
We’ve seen plenty of adorable Halloween treats in Disney World this year.
Fall Decorations at Magic Kingdom
And we have to admit — we’ve also seen our share of not-so-cute Halloween treats as well. Today we went to a Disney World hotel restaurant to check out a returning treat from last year (spoiler alert: it was one of the not-so-cute ones last year), but we were SHOOK when we saw what this ugly duckling turned into.
We’re always looking out for the newest snacks in Disney World, so it’s not unusual for us to have a cupcake or chicken tenders for breakfast.
Welcome to Disney World!
But recently, a brand-new menu item popped up that was actually meant to be eaten for breakfast! It might not look like breakfast (just wait ’til you see this adorable creation), but it was definitely the perfect start to our day. You can’t find this new dish in the Disney World parks, but lucky for us it wasn’t too far away.
It’s finally the BIG day!
Wilderness Lodge
Today is Disney World’s 50th anniversary! We’ve been taking you LIVE with us around the theme parks and resorts to show you the latest in food, decor, merchandise, entertainment, and more. Right now, we’re checking out the celebrations happening at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge and they’ve got a brand new treat to celebrate the anniversary!
