food IS a theme park
Howdy, from Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World!
Hollywood Studios
We’ve got food, merch, and attraction updates for you! Let’s see what’s going on at the land of movies and television.
It’s Halloween time in Disney World! And that means you can find all kinds of Halloween snacks and drinks around the parks and hotels.
The Wave at Disney’s Contemporary Resort
Now we already got shared details about the three new spooky drinks that recently turned up at The Wave at Disney’s Contemporary Resort. And we recently tried out two of those drinks!
The Disney World water parks closed alongside most of the resort back in March. Until today, they remain closed with no news of reopening.
Typhoon Lagoon
Now, Disney has announced that Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon will not reopen until at least March 7th — almost a full year of closure. Due to this fact, some Disney World Annual Passholders will be receiving partial refunds.
While the theme parks in Disney World are now open, both of Disney’s water parks — Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park and Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park — remain closed.

Now we’ve got an update from Disney in terms of when we’ll potentially be able to take a splash at those water parks again.
We LOVE Disney plushes. If there were such a thing as too many, we would definitely be overdoing it. As crazy as we are about plushes, we’re even CRAZIER about shoulder plushes!
Bruni Shoulder Plush
These little guys are the perfect size to sit on your shoulder and they come with magnets so that they can do just that. We’ve spotted a bunch of these little cuties (like Figment and Baby Yoda!) in Disney World, and now a few of these plushes have popped up in Disneyland!
Did you know that cheeseburgers have their own national holiday? Not that they don’t deserve a holiday; in fact, we would say that EVERY day should be a national holiday in honor of the cheeseburger! 😉
Black Tap
Black Tap Craft Burgers & Shakes in Downtown Disney is getting in on the celebration, offering YOU a chance to win some pretty tasty prizes!
Avast, ye landlubbers! September 19th is International Talk Like a Pirate Day and to celebrate we are taking a virtual trip down to the Caribbean on a search for Captain Jack Sparrow.
Pirates of the Caribbean
Disney has been releasing Ride & Learn Videos for some of our favorite attractions. Lately, we’ve Dashed along with Slinky Dog at Hollywood Studios and chased down Jack Jack with the Incredibles at California Adventure.
With all the new Halloween character cavalcades in Disney World kicking off this week, we’ve returned to the parks time and time again to catch a glimpse of our favorite ‘Halloween’ characters! But on our most recent trip, Mother Nature had other plans, which meant we got to check out what happens when it RAINS on the Halloween cavalcades!
Halloween Decorations at Magic Kingdom
While the weather in Disney World doesn’t always tend to cooperate with us, rainy days can lead to extra bits of magic you perhaps weren’t expecting! And like we always say, a rainy day at Disney World is better than a sunny day anywhere else! While Disney tends to have a Rainy Day Cavalcade ready to go in the case of inclement weather, we got to see what its “spooky” counterpart looks like today!
Who doesn’t love the many flavors of fall? From pumpkin spice to cinnamon to candy corn flavors, this time of year always has a special place with our taste buds!
Halloween Drinks at Gasparilla Island Grill
We even like fall-flavored drinks! So we decided to try out the three NEW Halloween exclusive drinks (which we recently spotted on Mobile Order) at Gasparilla Island Grill at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa!
Earlier today, we snacked on the truly surprising Fall Flavors Cupcake at Gasparilla Island Grill.

But it wasn’t the only item we tried at this counter service spot in Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort. Because we simply couldn’t resist grabbing a treat inspired by a favorite park snack… the CHURRO! [Read more…]
