food IS a theme park
A NEW special event is happening next month that will give you the opportunity to support a fantastic non-profit organization while getting to enjoy Universal Orlando!
Give Kids the World Village
Universal Orlando Resort and Give Kids The World are coming together to host a fun-filled night, with all the proceeds from the event supporting the Give Kids The World Village. We have all the details about this exciting special event!
We might be Disney Food Blog, but we’re pretty darn excited about everything going on at Universal Orlando.
Universal Studios
Epic Universe — Universal’s newest theme park — is slated to open in 2025, bringing a ton of new rides, restaurants, and more to this vacation destination. At Universal Studios, DreamWorks Land recently opened and has been a hit with fans. But, if you’ve got an upcoming trip to Universal planned, we have a word of warning for you!
Universal Orlando just announced a NEW limited-time event, and it’s one that fans of Harry Potter won’t want to miss.

A trip to Disney World is supposed to be fun, right?!
Crowds in Magic Kingdom
It absolutely IS fun (we wouldn’t go every. single. day. if it wasn’t), but we’re not going to lie — when we’re facing crowds, or heat, or our favorite ride shuts down suddenly, it can start to feel a bit stressful. We thought we’d share a few things today that we never want to hear you say in Disney World … we promise your stress levels will decrease if you avoid them!
When it comes to Disney World, there are a LOT of opinions out there.
Cinderella Castle
Ask 10 different Disney fans what their favorite ride, snack, and park are and we guarantee that you’ll get a wide variety of different answers. Well, it’s no different here on the DFB team! We’ve got some very weird (and very strong) opinions about Disney World, and today we’re sharing them with you!
You can’t believe everything that you hear about Magic Kingdom!
Cinderella Castle
Magic Kingdom was the first Walt Disney World park to open, making it an iconic focal point of the Resort. But over the course of its nearly 50-year history, some misconceptions about the park have popped up. Let’s take a look at — and debunk — some absolute lies about Magic Kingdom!
Most guests who visit Disney World are pretty well-informed and come prepared, and if you’re reading this, you’ve probably already seen many of our tips and tricks on how to make your Disney World vacation less stressful and more magical!
Donald and Daisy
And we’re coming in hot now with a few tips of things you should NEVER say at Disney World, and trust us — these may seem like no-brainers to you, but we’ve totally heard these at the parks! So pay attention!
Walt Disney’s story and the history of his theme parks add to the magic that we experience when we visit.
Cinderella Castle
Walt Disney himself once said, “Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.” This sentiment has been applied to the parks across the world — Disney is always growing and changing. We’ve come a long way to get to the Disney we know and love, but can you imagine if there was a Disney World with no Mickey Mouse? Or you took your yearly Disney trip to Missouri instead of Florida? Disney would’ve been VERY different if these things happened.
It’s been a hot second since we stepped foot inside a theme park!
Universal Studios Resort
Disney World closed back in March and is slated to open next month. But today, we were granted a super sneak-peek into Universal Orlando’s theme parks (which don’t officially open to the public until June 5th)! Wands [and masks] at the ready? Let’s take a look!
Warning to Disney purists — we’re branching out a bit today! Heather Winfield sent along this amazing review of some food stops in Universal Orlando’s Wizarding World of Harry Potter! Just take one look at that mug of butterbeer and you might be swayed… . Take it away Heather!

In December, we visited Universal for the first time to see the Wizarding World of Harry Potter (WWoHP.) I got in late in the Harry phenomenon, but WWoHP is a must do for any fan. It was amazing. Every detail was perfect! When it was time for lunch, we didn’t want to leave the area, so we decided to eat at WWoHP’s restaurant, Three Broomsticks.

Like all of Hogsmeade, the outside of the restaurant looks exactly [Read more…]
