food IS a theme park
We have more refurbishment news to share with you!
EPCOT
We’ve received loads of refurbishment announcements over the last few days! But as a recently redone dining location reopens, another one will be closing.
Hello from EPCOT!
Spaceship Earth
We decided to wander around the world (quite literally) and see what’s new since the last time we visited!
Now that EPCOT has officially reopened, we’ve been checking out the park to see what’s new!
EPCOT
Upon reopening, the park also kicked off A Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival! Of course, we visited all the booths to see what they’re serving up this year! But let’s take a look at what ELSE is new in EPCOT!
It’s almost turkey time in Disney World! Thanksgiving is just two weeks away, you guys!
Mickey and Minnie Thanksgiving Plush
If you’re like us, you’ve got your stretchy pants ready to try the delicious meals coming to the restaurants around the parks. Did you know that many restaurants offer special Thanksgiving menus? Well, they do! And we’ve gathered a bunch of em for ya!
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day… And one of the most delicious tbh!!
UK Pavilion
Some of our favorite breakfasts just happen to come from inside Disney World. And, after spotting this brekkie in Epcot, our mouths are definitely already watering!
We’re BACK with another roundup of What’s New at Epcot!
Spaceship Earth
Today we’ll cover allll the construction updates, adorable new merchandise, and so much more. Let’s get started!
If you’ve ever visited Epcot, you likely know about Rose & Crown Pub and Dining Room, a truly charming and beloved spot located in the UK Pavilion. It’s always good to pop in for some delicious Bangers and Mash, some classic Fish & Chips, or the Battered Banger and Chips.
Rose and Crown Outdoor Bar
But what you might not know is that Rose & Crown has an outdoor bar where you can find a few of the drinks that are served inside as well (an added bonus — it often has a much shorter wait!), along with some House-made Crisps for a snack. But aside from those Crisps, there really isn’t much in the way of food here. But today…
There is nothing more British than a cuppa tea. And now you can have a cuppa at Epcot’s local pub – Rose and Crown! But this isn’t your regular tea – it’s an “experience”!
Rose and Crown Pub and Dining Room
The Rose and Crown has launched a new “Tea Experience” where you’ll not only sip tea, but you’ll munch on scones and sandwiches while learning about tea from a Twinings-trained Cast Member. [Read more…]
What? You’ve recovered from the DFB Grilled Cheese Crawl, and you’re ready for another one? We are right there with ya!
So today, we’re heading to the Mecca of Diverse Disney food options, Epcot!
There are literally hundreds of delicious dishes and tempting snacks to be savored throughout the park. And that makes sense, since World Showcase immerses you into the cultures of eleven different countries.
In one day, you can enjoy pastries from France, sushi from Japan, a jumbo pretzel from Germany, schoolbread from Norway — and so much more!
But then, there’s Future World, too. Home to great little kiosks featuring flavored popcorns as well as one of our favorite counter service spots, Sunshine Seasons, there’s plenty to enjoy there as well.
We all have our favorites, but it’s also fun to check out the NEW stuff! And so today, that’s what we’re doing. Let’s head into Epcot and arrange the day around trying brand new (or in some cases, returning items) in our DFB “Just the New Stuff” Crawl, Epcot Edition!
And if you love this crawl, be sure to check out our DFB Guide + Snacks Bundle, which you can enjoy for an unbelievable 30% off the already discounted price with code BUNDLE17 at DFBStore.com!
I hope you came hungry. Let’s go!
To kick our day off right, we should start with a good breakfast. Sure, you could grab a bowl of cereal at the resort or head to Starbucks for a muffin, but I say let’s check out Sunshine Seasons in The Land Pavilion for their Cinnamon French Toast Bread Pudding.
Cinnamon French Toast Bread Pudding at Sunshine Seasons
Is it breakfast, or is it dessert? Who cares? Because this is vacation, and you NEED to have this rich, delicious dish to jump start your day. (Oh, and to answer the question, clearly, this is breakfast. I mean, who eats bacon with dessert? 😉 ) [Read more…]
It’s high temps and good times in Walt Disney World this summer season! We’re spotting plenty of frosty summer sips to help you beat the heat, along with all sorts of new restaurants to stop in and take an air-conditioned breather.
And if we’re talking about new restaurants, there’s only one place to start this round of What’s New, and that’s…
I know — it’s as though the openings are never-ending at Disney Springs! The Grand Opening Summer Celebration is ON for this dining, shopping, and entertainment district!
Disney Springs
Can you believe it? What once seemed like a never-ending transformation of what was once Downtown Disney to Disney Springs is now complete (though we still have a few more spots to welcome in the coming months!). [Read more…]
