food IS a theme park
Hello from the West Coast, DFB Friends!
Disney California Adventure
Things have been pretty busy over here in Disneyland — we’ve been celebrating Pride Month AND Celebrate Soulfully. Blue Bayou Restaurant just reopened, and we’ve been eating a LOT of new snacks. Summer in Disneyland IS LIT, y’all! So let’s see what’s new!
Today is the day we want to remind you to just keep swimmin’!
It’s here!
Why? Well, that’s because we’re celebrating the return of the Finding Nemo show in Disney’s Animal Kingdom. This show hasn’t happened in over two years, and we learned last year that it would be reimagined and called Finding Nemo: The Big Blue… and Beyond! Today, we got to attend a media event to see the show’s debut, and we’ve got a first look for you!
When it comes to great dining, it’s hard to beat EPCOT.
Rose & Crown
Where else can you eat around the world without even leaving the park? Want Canadian-inspired food? Visit Le Cellier. Craving crepes? Head to La Crêperie de Paris in France. Morrocan? Spice Road Table is serving up delicious dishes in Morroco. If it’s classic British food, though, you’ll want to dine at Rose & Crown Pub and Dining Room in the U.K. However, you may not be able to dine there soon!
One can never have too many pairs of Minnie ears, can they?
So many choices!
We’ve seen some pretty amazing ears recently, too — we went NUTS over the Scarlet Witch ears when they were released online (and when we found them at Disney World yesterday). We thought the Mickey Mouse: The Main Attraction Mad Tea Party ears were totally adorable. Ewok ears? We’re in! But the ears we saw today…well…we have questions.
Okay, so although the new Star Wars hotel at Disney World, the Galactic Starcruiser, is an incredibly immersive and fun experience, we admit we had to pick our jaws up from the ground when we heard about the pricing.
Dinner and a show aboard the Galactic Starcruiser
So we’re looking at the price for 2 guests per cabin on the Galactic Starcruiser. That price is a whopping $4,809 for the whole voyage — which is just two nights.
After Disney World’s historic closure and reopening two years ago, we’re still waiting on some things to return to normal at the parks.
Minnie Vans!
There are still some shows that haven’t returned (yes, we’re looking at you Fantasmic!). We’re still waiting on certain restaurants to open! We’re also still waiting on the return of Minnie Vans, although Disney recently said they would return this summer. But now, we know exactly WHEN Minnie vans will be back at Disney World!
If you’re all about grabbing those limited-time Disney World treats, then you’ll want to hurry into the parks this month!
Pride photo op in Animal Kingdom
That’s because it’s Pride Month, and Disney World has brought out all kinds of rainbow Pride merchandise and Pride-themed drinks and snacks to celebrate. We’ve been eating a LOT of Pride snacks, and now we’re back with another review!
So you’re going to Disney World? First, CONGRATULATIONS!
Chef Mickey at Chef Mickey’s!
And hopefully, that means, we’ve helped you with all the planning work, including figuring out your budget, buying your tickets, booking your hotel, and making those park pass reservations. And of course, you’ve figured out your dining and made your advance dining reservations, too!
Greetings from the West Coast, DFB Friends!
