Sometimes grabbing breakfast before you hit the parks can be difficult. If you don’t bring breakfast food with you on your trip, you’re faced with the question of where to get breakfast before your trip. Don’t worry — we have some options for you! Pop Century! We have some favorites in the parks, like the Nutella Waffle Sandwich at Sleepy Hollow Refreshments and Colossal Cinnamon Roll at Gaston’s Tavern, but Disney hotels have breakfast options as well. We found a new offering at Disney World’s Pop Century Resort that we ended up LOVING! Now at Everything Pop (the food court at Disney’s Pop Century Resort), you can get the Overnight Oats for $5.29! Everything Pop’s Overnight Oats If you’re not familiar with overnight oats, it’s where you allow oats to soak overnight in a liquid (usually milk) to soften and take on a creamy consistency. These overnight oats are packed with chia seeds and have a delicious vanilla flavor. We honestly weren’t expecting to enjoy this simple breakfast so much, but we’re glad we gave it a try! Look at those walnuts! There are toasted walnuts and blueberries on top of the oats, giving a nice additional crunch. We love that this grab-and-go breakfast gives you the protein you need to start your park day, and we were surprised by how much it actually filled us! We think this is a great option for people who are looking for an on-the-go breakfast. However, if you prefer a bigger meal to start your day, you may want to look elsewhere. Yum! Everything Pop also has a Waffle Bounty Platter, Omelets, Pancakes, a Bagel Sandwich, and more, so there’s plenty to choose from at this spot. Everything POP Looking for some other breakfast options? Minnie’s Beach Bash Breakfast is returning to Cape May Café soon! We also recently tried the Breakfast Bowl at Woody’s Lunch Box, which is a great quick-service meal in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. And if you’re staying at the Shades of Green hotel, you can eat at a breakfast buffet for under $20! Stay tuned to DFB for all our Disney breakfast reviews. We are BEGGING for breakfast to come to this iconic Disney Springs restaurant! Want More Details About Disney World’s Hotels?

A lot has been changing recently for Disney Vacation Club (DVC) members. Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort just opened new DVC Resort Studios and updated their existing DVC villas. And a whole new building is coming to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort that’s going to have even more DVC villas! But a major change just took effect recently that DVC members will want to know about. Disney Vacation Club The Disney Vacation Club is sort of like a timeshare in Disney World. Members buy into a point system and then use those points to “pay” for certain Disney World hotel rooms. Recently, the DVC adjusted a policy for that point system. DVC members are given a certain number of points each year (depending on their membership) to spend at select Disney hotels. But they can also “bank” unused points to use the following year or borrow points from the next year to use earlier. That can be helpful if you won’t be visiting Disney World for one year or if you want to pay for a more expensive hotel than you can afford with one year’s worth of points. Disney Vacation Club kiosk in Animal Kingdom When Disney World reopened in 2020, the policy for borrowing future points had changed: members could only borrow 50% of their available points from the upcoming year. But now the policy has changed back, and members can once again borrow 100% of points from the upcoming year! Disney Vacation Club Policy Change | ©Disney Disney sent a notice to DVC members announcing the return of the previous policy. This change went into effect on July 12th, 2022. So now if you’re hoping to pay for an upcoming hotel stay with DVC points, you can once again use 100% of your points from the upcoming year. Disney’s Beach Club Resort Not all Disney World hotels have DVC rooms — some that do include the Grand Floridian, Polynesian Village Resort, Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resorts, Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, and others. The new Star Wars hotel, Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, also accepts DVC points for guests hoping to stay there. But you may need to borrow some future points for that experience — it doesn’t come cheap! DVC Grand Floridian Resort Studio Remember that the DVC-exclusive Top of the World lounge at Disney’s Contemporary Resort recently reopened with a new Disney villain theme! The updated spot has new eats and drinks with sinister names. Top of the World — Villains Lair Keep following DFB for more of the latest Disney news.

That includes BTS: Permission to Dance On Stage — L.A. which is a 4K concert film of a live performance from November 2021. ©BTS Facebook There will also be a docuseries titled BTS Monuments: Beyond The Star, which will track the band’s success over the past nine years with “unprecedented access” to music and footage.

FRENCH FRY FLIGHT. Do we have your attention? 2021 Food & Wine The EPCOT Food & Wine Festival starts on July 14th, and we could not be more excited to taste our way around the various food booths. There are a bunch of returning favorites, like the Noodle Exchange, the Mexico booth, and Flavors from Fire (just to name a few), but right now we’re talking about the only NEW booth at this year’s festival. That’s right — there’s only one new booth this year at EPCOT’s Food & Wine Festival. There are new menu items at a lot of the booths, but only one spot is completely new. That spot is called The Fry Basket, and we’re already drooling just thinking about the menu there. What can you find at The Fry Basket? So what’s being served at this new spot? We’ll give you 3 guesses, but you’ll probably only need one. That’s right — this spot’s specialty is FRENCH FRIES. On the menu, you’ll find Adobo Yuca Fries, served with a garlic-cilantro aïoli for $5.50. Those fries are both gluten- and wheat-friendly and plant-based. ©Disney But what we’re most excited about is the Fry Flight for $7.50, which comes with the following fries: Sea Salt and Malt Vinegar Fries (Plant-based) Barbecued Bacon Fries with smoked aïoli Sweet Potato Casserole Fries with candied pecans, toasted marshmallow cream, and caramel whisky Although all french fries sound like they’d be plant-based, some of these have toppings or dips that are not plant-based, so watch for the little green symbol to tell you which are OK for the plant-based eaters out there. Fry Basket menu We were sold from the moment we heard “French Fry Flight,” and we cannot wait to see if that snack lives up to the hype. But fries aren’t actually the only thing on the menu. You can also find a couple of drinks: Salty Dog Cocktail: Boyd & Blair Vodka with grapefruit juice, ginger, simple syrup, and lime with a salted rim (New)– $11.00 81Bay Brewing Co. Key Lime Lager (New) – 6 oz. $5.00 / 12 oz. $9.00 What do you think — are you sold on this spot? If you’re ready to plan your visit, you’ll first need to know where to go! Where can you find the Fry Basket? Disney announced that this new booth will be located near Test Track in the World Discovery section of EPCOT. Find it near the ride’s exit. Test Track Now you’re all ready to get some delicious fries when this spot opens on July 14th with the rest of the festival! Note that a few other booths will NOT open on that date — some are opening late on August 15th instead. The Hawaii Booth is opening late this year | Photo from 2021 If you’re getting ready to visit the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival, we’d love to help you prepare. We have all kinds of resources, including a free printable Festival map, a free printable list of food booths and menus, and a complete guide for what you’ll need in your park bag. 2022 EPCOT Food & Wine Booth Follow along with us when the Festival begins on July 14th, because we’ll be there live to bring you reviews of EVERY booth so that you know which eats are worth the cash and stomach space.

Disney World tries to remain up on current trends, and with that often comes some pretty significant ride overhauls! Splash Mountain at Magic Kingdom We’ve said goodbye to The Great Movie Ride (now Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway), Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride in Magic Kingdom is now Winnie the Pooh-themed, and of course, we know that Splash Mountain is going to be re-themed to The Princess and the Frog. All of this re-theming had us wondering what OTHER rides could use a refresh — so we decided to ask our readers for their opinions! We reached out to readers on our Facebook page and asked, “If you could re-theme ANY Disney World ride, which would you pick and what would you change it to?” We’ve rounded up the best responses to share with you! Magic Kingdom Monster’s, Inc. Laugh Floor There were a few rides in the Magic Kingdom that our readers thought needed a bit of a makeover, with one reader saying, “I would change the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor to a roller coaster that mimics the door/chase sequence in that movie!” It’s getting ready to start! This wouldn’t be too hard to accomplish, since the attraction already exists over on the west coast in Disney’s California Adventure, Monster’s, Inc Mike & Sulley to the Rescue! An Interactive Part of Tomorrowland Has Returned to Disney World Tomorrowland Speedway Another reader thought that the Tomorrowland Speedway is “begging for a Sugar Rush theme.” For those that don’t know, “Sugar Rush” is a fictional kart-racing game from the Wreck-It Ralph franchise. Imagine driving around in candy cars! As much as we love the Ralph and Vanellope meet and greet in EPCOT, how sweet would it be to race around in candy-inspired go-carts!? Starting to feel the need for speed, already! NEWS: Ralph and Vanellope Are Meeting Guests in a New Location in Epcot! The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh Overwhelmingly though, the ride that most readers wanted to re-theme was The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. And while technically NOT a re-theme, it seems readers just want it returned to its former glory — Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride. Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride was an attraction that used to be where The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh now stands. While riding along in your hunny pot, guests can even catch a glimpse of a little easter egg of Mr. Toad handing the deed to the attraction over to Owl. Portrait of Mr. Toad in The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh Mr. Toad and his terrorizing ride through England and the after-life can still be experienced in Disneyland. For those hard-core Mr. Toad fans, all is not lost, it’s just way out on the west coast. How to Tackle Disney World’s Most Popular Rides Disney’s Animal Kingdom Dinoland, U.S.A. Apparently, our readers have a problem with Dinoland, U.S.A. at Disney’s Animal Kingdom! Dinoland is, well, a land, and not a ride — but SO MANY people shared thoughts about a full overhaul. Dinoland, USA One reader thought Dinoland should be re-themed to the new Disney movie Encanto. To be honest, who wouldn’t want to tour through the magical Casita Madrigal and see inside all of those enchanted rooms!? Does it fit in Animal Kingdom? Who knows! But if Disney builds it, we’ll be there…looking for Bruno and the whole gang! ©Disney Some others chimed in to suggest that Dinoland would be better suited for Zootopia. The animals in Zootopia definitely fit into the motif of Animal Kingdom. And all of the quadrants of that capital city are full of possibilities which include Saharah Square, Tundra Town, Savannah Central, and the Rainforest District. Zootopia’s Nick Wilde at Disneyland Resort On hot summer days, who won’t want to set up camp in Tundra Town? Did You Know About All of These Hidden Dinoland U.S.A. Details in Animal Kingdom?! Expedition Everest: The Forbidden Mountain Readers chimed in to say they didn’t want a whole re-theme for Expedition Everest, they just want the Yeti to function again. To the mountain we go We’ve grown rather fond of the affectionately nicknamed “Disco Yeti” thanks to its strobe light effect. But, let’s get real, if that big fella actually moved and swipe his big paws (claws? hands? whatever…) at you, that would definitely add another layer of thrills to the runaway train ride! The 2022 Ultimate Guide to Animal Kingdom EPCOT EPCOT has gone through several transformations from what Walt originally intended for the Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, and with that comes attraction overhauls. Gran Fiesta Tour Starring The Three Caballeros For many of you, this charming boat ride through the states of Mexico seemed a bit outdated, and the replacement choice was obvious: Coco! Un Poco Loco scene from Mickey’s Philharmagic Imagine taking that same boat ride but instead of through the ’90s version of Mexico, touring through the animated version of Mexico and the afterlife with Miguel and Danté! Sounds like a fun ride and we already have Un Poco Loco in our heads, yet another earworm to chalk up to Disney! VIDEO: Disney’s New ‘Coco’ Scene Is Now Part of Mickey’s PhilharMagic! Soarin’ Some of our readers are looking to spice up Soarin’ (even with the fairly recent “Around the World” addition). One reader suggested featuring Disney and Pixar’s Up as an alternative. Soarin’ Around the World That could be a fun application of this hang-glider style ride. Soar over the clouds with Russell, Mr. Fredrickson and Dug in their floating house and view scenes from the adventurous South America mountains and rainforest. What’s New in Animal Kingdom: UP! Bird Show is BACK, A Really Swell Phone Case, and COFFEE! Frozen Ever After And just like The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, many of you wanted to get rid of Frozen Ever After just to bring back Maelstrom. Frozen Ever After Given the perpetual line and popularity of Frozen Ever After, it’s probably here to stay (at least for a while), but we love Maelstrom, too. Because “Those who seek the spirit of Norway face peril and adventure—but more often, find beauty and charm.” The Biggest LIES Everyone Believes About Disney World Disney’s Hollywood Studios Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster was the first to come to mind for many readers. Someone even suggested that a Taylor Swift re-theme would do the ride justice. Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Personally, we’d love a fun Powerline theme, from A Goofy Movie! How Tall Do You Have to Be to Ride Disney World’s Most Popular Roller Coasters? Star Tours A few readers suggested re-theming Star Tours since there’s now an entire land dedicated to Star Wars at Hollywood Studios — and we see the logic. One even thought to replace it with Indiana Jones Adventure from Disneyland Resort, while another thought a Wall-E ride would be a better fit! Star Tours queue area Whatever your opinion may be, we can all agree that things are always changing at Disney World.

We’re SO. CLOSE. EPCOT Food & Wine Festival | 2021 The start to the 2022 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival is only a couple of days away, so we’re gearing up for the big event by packing our park bags, studying the menus, and finalizing our game plan. There are a lot of new eats at this year’s festival, not to mention returning favorites! Let’s find out which snacks and drinks people are MOST looking forward to eating this year. We reached out on Twitter to ask you, “What are you most looking forward to tasting at the 2022 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival?” We got several responses with a lot of different festival favorites — here are some of the most popular picks! Griddled Cheese (Greece Booth) Several readers responded with a DFB-favorite snack, the Griddled Cheese with pistachios and honey. This delicious snack can be found at the Greece booth, and it’s gluten- and wheat-friendly. Griddled Cheese with Pistachios and Honey from Greece | 2021 One reader said, “The Griddled Cheese w/ pistachios and honey at the Greece booth, because…CHEESE.” We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. Another commented, “The Griddled Cheese is my FAVORITE!” Greece booth | 2021 In the past, we’ve been HUGE fans of this snack. And this year it’s back and also part of Emile’s Fromage Montage — the festival cheese crawl! Click here to see our previous review of the Griddled Cheese. Lamington (Australia Booth) A few readers were also very interested in the Lamington, which can be found at the Australia booth. One reader commented, “I need to see if they’re up to this Aussie’s standards.” Lamington cross-section | 2016 In case you aren’t familiar with this treat, a Lamington is yellow cake with raspberry filling, dipped in chocolate and coconut. It’s available at the 2022 Food & Wine Festival for $4.50. Although the dish isn’t brand new to this year’s festival, it wasn’t available last year so we’re excited to see it return! See what other eats are available at the Australia booth here! Vegan and Gluten-Free Eats Several readers noted that they’re excited to see what kinds of vegan and gluten-free items will be available this year. There are more than 10 plant-based dishes available between several different booths, and over 20 gluten- and wheat-friendly eats. Look for Gluten-Free and Plant-Based Symbols on the booth menus. You can tell if a snack is vegan or gluten-free by the symbols listed next to it on the booth’s menu. A dark blue circle with a white “G” inside means the item is gluten- and wheat-friendly. A little green plant symbol means the item is made without animal meat, dairy, eggs, or honey. Crispy Brussel Sprouts at Brew-Wing | 2021 We’ve also noted which items are gluten-friendly and plant-based in our full list of food booths and menus. Check out all the eats (including vegan and gluten-free options) at the 2022 Food & Wine Festival here. The Hawai’i Booth One of the most popular booths mentioned in response to our question was the Hawai’i booth! One reader said they can’t wait to eat the Passion Fruit Cheesecake with toasted macadamia nuts again, which was “amazing” on their last visit. (The cheesecake is also part of Emile’s Fromage Montage.) Passion Fruit Cheesecake | 2021 Another person said they’re visiting the festival just for the Kālua Pork Slider! This snack is topped with sweet-and-sour DOLE pineapple chutney and spicy mayonnaise. Kalua Pork Slider | 2021 The other item on the Hawai’i booth’s menu is a new arrival! It’s the SPAM Musubi Nigiri with sushi rice, teriyaki-glazed SPAM, spicy mayonnaise, eel sauce, and nori. Will that dish become another fan favorite? We’ll have to wait and see! Click here to check out the Hawai’i Food & Wine Festival booth. New Eats A few readers responded that they can’t wait to try all the NEW eats, especially at the Fry Basket booth, which is completely new this year. One reader said, “Anything from the Fry Basket!” while another specifically mentioned “the Adobo Yuca Fries.” Fry Basket menu The Fry Basket is also home to a FRENCH FRY FLIGHT, which includes plant-based Sea Salt and Malt Vinegar Fries, Barbecued Bacon Fries with smoked aïoli, and Sweet Potato Casserole Fries with candied pecans, toasted marshmallow cream, and caramel whisky. (Are we already drooling?) The flight will cost $7.50. Click here to see all the new eats at the Fry Basket! All the Cheese These are readers after our own hearts. One person said, “Cheese. That’s it.” And they’re correct. We can all go home now. In fact, there’s an entire cheese crawl at this festival, where you can choose any 5 of 10 different cheese-based dishes, collect stamps when you purchase each one, and then earn a PRIZE just for eating all of that cheese! It’s called Emile’s Fromage Montage, and it’s one of our favorite things. Emile’s Fromage Montage Another reader specifically mentioned that they can’t wait to eat the Raclette at The Alps booth! Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese with Alpine Ham, Baby Potatoes, Cornichons and Baguette | 2021 This year, there are actually THREE different Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese dishes (all of which are part of Emile’s Fromage Montage): Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese with alpine ham, baby potatoes, cornichons, and baguette Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese with baby potatoes, cornichons, and baguette Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese with Riesling-poached pears, red wine-braised figs, candied pecans, honey, and cranberry toast (New) Click here to learn more about the CHEESE CRAWL. EVERYTHING And finally, we had to include a few responses that simply stated “EVERYTHING.” One reader said, “Is everything the wrong answer? But seriously too many things to name.” Another said, “I. Can. Not. Wait.” We can relate! Let’s go EAT! Before you head out on your trip to EPCOT’s 2022 Food & Wine Festival, let us help you prepare!

There are a LOT of snacks in Disney World. Look at all those treats! We’ll admit that while there are plenty of snacks we LOVE, we’ve had our fair share of snacks we wouldn’t get again. It’s also true that new snacks are often brought into the parks, but sometimes that means other snacks have to go. It looks like right now is one of those times — a new snack has debuted in Magic Kingdom…but it may be replacing a DFB favorite. The Cheshire Cat Tail is a favorite DFB treat in Magic Kingdom. You can get it at the similarly named Cheshire Cafe in Fantasyland. Doesn’t this make you hungry?! It’s a light, flaky chocolate croissant twist with pink and blue frosting normally available for $5.79. But, right now it’s MISSING from the menu. The Cheshire Cat Tail is MISSING! The Cheshire Cat Paw for $6.29 has replaced the Cheshire Cat Tail — for now. The pastry is very similar — light and flaky, but this new treat has a hazelnut filling. The pink and blue icing has also transferred over to this treat. We decided we HAD to give this treat a try since the Cheshire Cat Tail is so beloved by our team — but how did it compare?! Cheshire Cat Paw OH BOY. This was sent directly from the snack gods. The pastry was buttery and flaky, and there was just enough hazelnut filling that it was nutty and chocolatey without being too overpowering. Honestly, the only negative we see to the Cheshire Cat Paw is that the hazelnut filling means people with nut allergies can’t taste how delicious it is. SO GOOD. It would make a great quick breakfast or treat on the go or just a cheap snack at any time of the day! If you’re looking for something more substantial for breakfast or a heartier snack, we’d probably skip this one. Overall, we can’t say we’re happy that the Cheshire Cat Tail is gone, but if it has to be gone for now — the Cheshire Cat Paw is a worthy replacement! We don’t know if this treat will be replacing the Cheshire Cat Tail for good, or only for a limited time — so be sure to stay tuned to DFB for the latest! We’ll take twelve.
