Close your eyes and picture this: You wake up in your Disney hotel room in your pajamas, look out the window, and see Cinderella Castle in the distance. You put on your matching family shirts and head downstairs to catch a monorail to the best park at Disney World. As you pass by an incredible gingerbread display, you’re transported to The Most Magical Place on Earth.

How is it August already?

We do have to say that we wrapped up July in the best way possible, by creating a SWEET Disney Adults Crawl that features drinks created to celebrate the release of our very own AJ Wolfe’s book, Disney Adults: Exploring (And Falling In Love With) A Magical Subculture. We’ve already fallen in love with one of those treats, but they’re all special, and we hope you enjoy the crawl. In the meantime, though, we’ve got some Disney World restaurant menu changes to share with you.

Are you sweating wherever you are? Because we are SWEATING in Disney World, but you know what? That doesn’t stop us from enjoying The Most Magical Place on Earth…or rather, from enjoying the FOOD at The Most Magical Place on Earth.

Onion Soup Gratin

This week, we got to enjoy one of Disney World’s most fun cocktails in a brand new cup (and we are obsessed). We also got to visit a brand NEW Disney World restaurant (and hello, fry trio…because fries are LIFE). We were also keeping track of Disney World restaurant menu changes throughout the week, so let’s see what got updated.

Of course, now that the holiday has passed, we’re looking forward to Halloween season in Disney World because the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is only a little over a month away. Yep, time flies! In the meantime, we’ve been checking out some new foods and drinks in the parks, and keeping an eye on restaurant menus.

JUST CONFIRMED: One of the BEST Christmas Traditions Will Return to Disney World This Year!

By 1 Comment

Is it too early to start thinking about Christmas?

Christmas decor in the Magic Kingdom 2024

If you ask Disney World, the answer is no. Disney knows a thing or two about celebrating all holidays… especially early. In most cases, we see Halloween decorations start popping up in early August, but hey, we aren’t complaining! 

Well, we have some good and, unfortunately, bad news for those who have been patiently waiting for Disney World to transform into a winter wonderland.

Um…What’s Happening With Peel-and-Eat Shrimp at Disney World Restaurants?

By 2 Comments

It’s been another great week in Disney World.

Pimento Cheese Fritters from River Roost

We got to see the Disney Dreamers Academy parade (which only happens once a year). We drank a VERY cool cocktail at The Polite Pig in Disney Springs. We even learned about some new character experiences coming to Disney World. However, we also kept an eye on Disney World restaurant menus, and yep, we’ve got some changes and updates to tell you about this week.

First off, there seems to be something going on with peel-and-eat shrimp! We have seen it removed from 3 menus in March — at Sebastian’s Bistro, Garden Grill, and last week at Akershus. This could be a supply chain or food cost issue, or maybe it is losing popularity? We’re not sure, but read on for more recent menu changes!
