food IS a theme park
is a great wilderness food stop. Located on the path between Adventureland and Frontierland (and Pecos Bill’s neighbor) in the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World, Golden Oak Outpost features a tiny and frequently-changing menu of mostly fried, delicious grub.

The Paint the Night Parade will make its return AND debut in Disneyland Resort on April 13th!
And how is that possible 🙂 ? While the Paint the Night Parade used to run in Disneyland Park, it will make its return in Disney California Adventure Park, marking its DCA debut. The return of the Paint the Night Parade coincides with the beginning of this summer’s Pixar Fest.

Two packages pairing food with a reserved viewing area for the parade are now available for booking.
The Paint the Night Parade Dining Package may be booked at your choice of two restaurants.

At Carthay Circle Restaurant, the dinner package includes a 4-course dinner from a prix fixe menu and includes one voucher for guaranteed seating at a reserved parade viewing area next to the restaurant.
Pricing starts at $99 for adults, and $45 for children ages 3 to 9.
Hope you’re having a great weekend! We’re back with another DFB Video this weekend, and we’re taking you on a food tour of Epcot’s beautiful Morocco Pavilion!
Morocco Pavilion
It’s no secret that the Morocco Pavilion is one of the most gorgeous and immersive Pavilions in Epcot’s World Showcase. What does tend to remain more of a mystery to many guests is this Pavilion’s food options. So we’d love to take you on a tour and show you some of the terrific and tasty options including one of the top Counter Service restaurants in Disney World. [Read more…]
We just learned that Toy Story Land at Disney’s Hollywood Studios will be opening on June 30 — but in the meantime, we’ve searched out What’s New NOW at Hollywood Studios (and nearby Art of Animation and Pop Century Resorts!). Let’s gooooooo!
At pop-up bars around the park, guests can order two new seasonal drinks. Baby Blues is comprised of Tito’s Handmade Vodka (SHOUTOUT AUSTIN, TX!), Bacardi Superior Rum, Tanqueray Gin, Blue Curacao, Sweet-and-Sour, and Sprite! And you get a glow cube, of course.
Green Screen is Absolut Pears Vodka, Midori, Pineapple Juice, and Sprite (again with a glow cube!).
(Anyone else as disturbed as I am on the pricing of these?)

The 2018 Disney California Adventure Food and Wine Festival kicks off on March 2, 2018! And though we are still eagerly awaiting menus for the thirteen Food Booths that will celebrate California cuisine, we have received word confirming four of the upcoming Food Booths (including some of their menu items)!

The I Heart Artichokes Booth will return for the 2018 Festival! [Read more…]
Who doesn’t love a good ol’ MICKEY WAFFLE?!
Most of us like-minded Disney food fans sure do. But the thing is, without an Advance Dining Reservation for a Table Service restaurant, it can be hard to find them inside the parks at Counter Service locations, even though they’re a staple in the Resort food courts. Last year, you could find Mickey Waffles at the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor when they served a breakfast menu, but that only lasted a very short while.
Fortunately, now they have a new home in Magic Kingdom: Sleepy Hollow Refreshments! A fitting spot, since Sleepy Hollow is home to the popular Sweet and Spicy Chicken Waffle Sandwich and the Fresh Fruit Waffle Sandwich with Nutella.
In fact, Sleepy Hollow has offered waffles topped with your choice of powdered sugar or strawberries and whipped cream for ages. But, while pleasant, they sure weren’t MICKEY-SHAPED.
But NOW…
Mickey Waffle
YES — it’s a JUMBO Mickey Waffle!! Clearly, we ordered up the Mickey Waffle with Strawberries and Whipped Cream (for $6.79 or a snack credit (!!!!) on the Disney Dining Plan).
We’re kicking off the weekend with HUGE news… Disney World’s new TOY STORY LAND will open on June 30, 2018!!
Toy Story Land construction wall
As guests, we’ll all shrink down to the size of a toy when we enter this brand new land in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! Get ready to enjoy two new attractions (in addition to an expanded Toy Story Mania) when the Slinky Dog Dash and Alien Swirling Saucers start dashing and swirling in June.
Well, it’s not just snacks all over Disney World that are suddenly sporting the Rose Gold hue… because now you can get a Rose Gold CHURRO in Disneyland!
Rose Gold Churro
Find this strawberry flavored Churro at the Churro Cart next to Sleeping Beauty Castle. That’s what our friend Sabrina did (she’s @everythingdisney.55), and she thought it was delicious!
Hey, Guys! We’re back with another DFB Video today, and to help you get through the rest of the week, we’re going to have some fun with some French Fry FAVORITES!

In fact, we’re checking out so many today that you could build your own ’round the World French Fry Tour! So if you’re a French Fry fan, then you’re not going to want to miss today’s video!
