food IS a theme park
If you’ve been dreaming of naan and spices, this one is for you. We’re making our way through the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival booths and loving it.
2023 India Booth
The 2023 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival has officially begun, and it has a LOT to offer. We’ve already tasted some new eats at the America booth, some of our favorite cheese at the Greece booth, and a returning fan favorite at the Flavors from Fire booth. We’re on our way to the India Booth now, and we need to WARN you about this one!
Look, sometimes you just need to own exactly who you are. And we own that we have a sweet tooth, especially for Disney treats.
Madame Leota Crisped Rice Cereal Treat
Some may call it a problem, we call it research. At Disney World, there are a lot of treats to try. We ran to try the Madam Leota treat at Magic Kingdom. We also ate TWO new churros and reviewed them, but really, we did it for you. If you’re a dessert fan, we bring you our reviews on all sweet things to let you know if you should add them to your list on your next Disney trip.
Families with young kids, you’re gonna want to hear about this event coming to Disneyland soon.
Pixar Pier at Disney California Adventure
Disneyland Resort has a lot going on. Those of us on the east coast are a little jealous. Did you see all of the Haunted Mansion food Disneyland got in honor of the new film? There is also some new nighttime entertainment coming soon as a temporary replacement for Fantasmic! Plus, we tried the new eats coming to the new Big Hero 6 land. Now, Disney just announced a 3-day event coming to the Disneyland Resort in August.
There are a lot of reasons to visit Disney Springs. You can shop, dine, bowl, and even catch a movie there.
Churro Pop
But did you know there are some sneaky good snacks you can find here? On a recent trip to Disney Springs, we got to try TWO new Churro treats from Sunshine Churros. We also tried a new menu item from Earl of Sandwich. And we couldn’t leave without trying a new frozen dessert served in a pineapple. Yeah, it’s served inside a pineapple.
Disney World is full of magic, sunshine, and lines.
Genie+
Genie+ was introduced as a way to avoid waiting in long lines for rides at Disney World. We know that depending on the time of year, there are major crowds and wait times can get long. It can be tough to know when you should purchase Genie+ or an Individual Lightning Lane — especially now that the Genie system has changed to have different pricing depending on the park you’re doing to.
We have an exciting update from Disney Cruise Line.
Disney Cruise Line!
Big things are happening for Disney Cruise Line. Recently, we learned that the new technology, DisneyBand+ was added to another Disney Cruise ship. We are also anticipating Disney’s new private island opening soon, Lighthouse Point. Now, we just got a closer look at Disney’s newest ship.
Disney World has some amazing restaurants and snacks — we would know! But sometimes you need something else.
Grand Floridian Resort
If you’re back at your Disney hotel after a long day in the parks, you might find yourself hungry. While most Disney resorts have quick-service restaurants or food courts, they tend close at 11 PM. So maybe it’s late at night, or maybe you’re just craving a Big Mac. Have no fear — did you know you could DoorDash McDonald’s to Your Disney World hotel? We’re here to tell you how.
EPCOT’s International Food & Wine Festival is just around the corner.
2022 Food and Wine Festival
We’re here to give you all the information about the festival, sneak peeks at the merchandise coming, and we will be there on opening day to give you a full report. We already know that over 50 NEW menu items are coming to this year’s festival. We also will see 5 NEW booths opening this year. The festival begins July 27th and will run until November 18th. To get you prepared, we have found the best Amazon Prime Day deals you’ll want to bring with you to the festival.
Some Disney souvenirs are just a little bit impractical. We know those huge popcorn buckets are super fun, but will you really use them at home? And how many Minnie ears do we all have stuffed inside our closets, where they rarely see the light of day?
So much merchandise!
Don’t get us wrong — we’re 100% guilty of buying Disney merch that we hardly ever actually use. But today we found an item that you’ll legitimately use EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
It is a BIG day for Disney fans hoping to grab tickets to a Halloween Party.
Oogie Boogie at the Oogie Boogie Bash!
Oogie Boogie Bash is a very popular Halloween party that takes place at Disneyland Resort. Tickets for the event initially went on sale to the general public at the end of June (after Magic Key Holder tickets sold out in the pre-sale), and it’s safe to say that things did NOT go well. Sales were paused, and it was announced last week that ticket sales would resume today. However, if you are wanting tickets, you better act FAST!
