at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa has become one of our favorite spots to dine for breakfast and brunch (click here to see why!). And one of our favorite entrees is a hack that marries two classic dishes: fried chicken and waffles (Mickey-style, if you so desire).
Grand Floridian Cafe Chicken and Waffles Hack
We’ve been hacking this dish for a while now (with thanks to Michael over at @DisneyNumNums for the idea), and the combination of buttermilk fried chicken (made with Corn Flake crumbs!) and a toasty Belgian or Mickey waffle is awesome. [Read more…]
Epcot’s International Food and Wine Festival
begins August 29 and runs until November 23. That’s 87 days of food booths, demos, Eat to the Beat Concerts, and more! With a Festival of this size (we’re expecting 30+ booths this year!), it’s impossible to see and do it all. So here are a few hidden secrets about the Food and Wine Festival as you start your planning.

Well this one is interesting! Orange and vanilla soft serve with…sparkling apple cider?! Yep, that’s what we found today at Magic Kingdom’s Sunshine Tree Terrace under the fun moniker “FOMOsa!”
FOMOsa debuts at Sunshine Tree Terrace
For those who don’t know, FOMO stands for “Fear of Missing Out,” and Disney’s hoping that when you see someone walking by with this champagne flute full of goodness, you’ll definitely experience some serious FOMO!
Disney’s Port Orleans — Riverside
offers some truly delicious and underrated dining.
is the resort’s table service dining option, and it’s a terrific under-the-radar spot that’s pretty much always a sure thing, even when other restaurants are packed to the gills. Muddy Rivers is a great pool bar, and River Roost is a charming place to relax with a drink.
When it comes to quick service dining at the resort, Riverside Mill is where it’s at. We’ve eaten here many times before, and the variety and quality have typically been pretty top-notch for a hotel food court. The atmosphere of Riverside is another winning attribute, helping diners to relax and refuel in a space that’s rustic and comfortable.
When we discovered the menus here had changed, we were eager to try the new items.

is a modern BBQ joint in Walt Disney World’s Disney Springs. Its proprietors are local celebrities of the food scene in central Florida, but my visits haven’t been universally excellent despite the Pig’s positive reception in Disney springs.

During our last visit to Epcot, we noticed quite a few changes and updates!
