food IS a theme park
Welcome back, world travelers! We’re here with another What’s New at Animal Kingdom!
Animal Kingdom
We’ve got some food and merch updates for ya, so let’s dive right on in!
Calling all you Hipsters out there! Put down your sugar-free, triple shot, skinny oat milk latte with extra cold foam…because we have some news for you!
Hipster Mickey
We’ve seen a resurgence in the realm of Designer Mickey Ears, with everyone from supermodel Heidi Klum to tiki-god SHAG getting in on the action.
Epcot is currently undergoing a MASSIVE transformation and a lot of changes have started to take place.
HarmonioUS in Epcot Concept Art
Locations like Fountain View and Club Cool (bye-bye, for now, Beverly) have officially closed. And Epcot’s Character Spot meet-and-greet location has been relocated.
As you’re walking down Main Street U.S.A., the aroma of salt and butter makes your tastebuds go wild.
Halloween Time in Disneyland
We seriously love Disney popcorn, especially with all the adorable popcorn buckets they have in the parks! With Halloween creeping up in Disney World and Disneyland, spooky buckets are available for guests to purchase. And, we have ALL the Halloween Popcorn Buckets for BOTH coasts!
Halloween Time is in full swing at Disneyland Resort!
Craftsman Bar
We’ve been eating ALL OF THE NEW treats as we have reported live from the parks and resorts. When we stopped by Craftsman Grill, which used to be called White Water Snacks, at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel, we spotted some of the CUTEST sweet treats.
We’ve got some seriously fun news about disney transportation that you’re gonna want to celebrate!
The Disney Bus system is a lifesaver whenever you’re in the parks. You never have to worry about parking, you get to pull right up to the entrance of your destination, and your ride is usually simple and pleasant. In addition to all those perks, Disney Transportation is about to get super spectacular.
We went over to Uptown Jewelers today to check out a laundry list of Pandora charms. Some are brand new, some have been around for a while, but all of them deserve a place in the spotlight.
Pandora Villain Charms
From classic Disney villains, to Up, the Lion King, and Forever Friends charms, these are simply to precious to handle.
Walt Disney World’s Land Pavilion
is home to one of our go-to quick service spots in Epcot’s Future World — Sunshine Seasons — but upstairs from Living with the Land is one of my favorite underrated character meals: Garden Grill. It’s here, in a rotating restaurant, that diners meet Disney character friends, dine on some really great grub, and get a bird’s eye view of the attraction below. It’s truly one-of-a-kind.
Garden Grill
Remember, at Garden Grill, always ask for a booth versus a table. I just think they’re more fun, plus your view of the Livin’ With The Land attraction scenes below is much better with a booth!

Table Seating
Before we get into the food, let’s say hello to some friends. Garden Grill is home to Farmer Mickey who always looks sharp in his overalls and plaid!
If you’re enjoying a rainy day at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom but are bummed to discover that the Festival of Fantasy Parade is cancelled for the day, fret not! (Well, you can fret a little…)
There’s a fun alternative to the FoF that features a handful of characters and lots of rainy day cheer! It’s the Rainy Day Cavalcade!

Christmas is coming!
And your Disney fan wants some Disney loot! So even though we’re in the business of Disney food, you know we can not resist Disney gear. We just can’t. We don’t even bother to try. (Just take my money!)
So here are some holiday Disney gift ideas… for your friends, your family, and yourself…that we just LOVED!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
