Over the past several weeks, I’ve had the privilege of being part of the team working with a wide range of Disney cast members, Legends and celebrities to playfully reveal 50 beloved characters that, beginning Oct. 1 and throughout "The World’s Most Magical Celebration," will await discovery as golden sculptures in Walt Disney World Theme Parks in honor of the 50th anniversary.http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/DisneyParks/~4/pQ0iDgwUzJMView the full article

It’s officially that magical time of year. Pumpkin spice season. Happy Fall, Y’all! Joffrey’s Coffee is officially offering pumpkin coffee drinks in Disney World and yes, we ordered them both. Plus another drink. Because PUMPKIN SPICE IS BACK! We were at Magic Kingdom today when we discovered the joyous return of pumpkin spice season. Joffrey’s Coffee has pumpkin coffee drinks! Joffrey’s Pumpkin Coffee Menu There’s a 16oz Pumpkin Pie Latte with pumpkin pie syrup, milk, and espresso for $6.09, and you can get it either hot or iced. This latte is very sweet and creamy, and if you like Pumpkin Spice Lattes from Starbucks, you will probably like this. Pumpkin Pie Latte There is also a 24oz Pumpkin Game Changer, which is pumpkin creme brûlée cold brew, a shot of espresso, and pumpkin pie syrup for $6.39. The Game Changer is also very sweet, and we don’t think it really needed the added syrup, but the shot of espresso was a nice touch. Pumpkin Game Changer If you still need more pumpkin, we also ordered a Pumpkin Creme Cold Brew, which is not on the menu! It’s Joffrey’s pumpkin creme brûlée cold brew served black without any sweetener or cream for $5.99. This is essentially the base of the Pumpkin Game Changer and you have to ask for it off the menu. You can request to add any available syrup or milk and may we boldly state that this might be the greatest coffee of all time. Pumpkin Creme Cold Brew Don’t mind us hanging out on Main Street with three pumpkin coffees. We like pumpkin, okay?! Joffrey’s Pumpkin Coffees Would you try any of these new pumpkin coffee drinks from Joffrey’s?

Face mask policies have changed several times since the beginning of the pandemic. Mask sign in Disney World When Disney World reopened, masks were required at all times (except when eating or drinking while stationary), then they were gradually phased out. However, recently masks were reinstated as a requirement for all guests while indoors to follow along with the CDC’s current mask recommendations. Now, we have an update about mask requirements for travelers on public transportation in the U.S. The United States will extend its mask requirements for travelers on airplanes, trains, and buses through January 18th, 2022, according to Reuters. This also includes airports and train stations. Orlando International Airport Spring Break Crowds This is the Transportation Security Administration’s mask directive, which is different from the CDC’s that has no expiration date. The current TSA transportation mask order runs through September 13th. Face Mask Sign in Seattle Airport The extension is due to the ongoing impact of the Delta variant of COVID-19, which is highly transmissible, and it also shows that transportation remains potentially risky, especially for people who are not vaccinated. Orlando International Airport According to Reuters, the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA President Sara Nelson said the TSA mask mandate extension “will help tremendously to keep passengers and aviation workers safe.” Orlando International Airport The current order from the CDC has been in place since President Biden took office in January and it requires the use of face masks on almost all public transportation. This includes airplanes, ships, trains, subways, buses, taxis and ride-shares and at transportation places like airports, bus or ferry terminals, train and subway stations, and seaports. Airplane The mask mandate has been an issue among some travelers, particularly on planes. The Federal Aviation Administration has instituted a “zero tolerance” enforcement effort on unruly passengers. This means the FAA “will pursue legal enforcement action against any passenger who assaults, threatens, intimidates, or interferes with airline crew members” according to the agency’s website. Flight from Orlando As a reminder, these policies apply to all travelers, regardless of vaccination status. Stay tuned to DFB for more updates.

What’s this!? A mid-festival Best of the Fest!? Didn’t we already do a Best of the Fest for the 2021 EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival?! The Food and Wine Festival is one of our favorite events of the year! Yep, we sure did! The festival started back in July with 23 of the 32 food booths opening. Now, another seven booths have opened and we’ve snacked our way through them all. So, of course, we’re bringing you a few more Best of the Fest picks! You have through November 20th when the festival ends to try all of our original Best of the Fest picks and these new ones. Now that we’ve tried every booth except for the still-closed Brazil and Belgium booths, we’re putting our festival expertise to use and bringing you MORE picks in the 2021 EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival BEST of the FEST! And, don’t forget to check back when we update this post with any picks from the final two booths when they open on October 1st! New Bests! We tried these items for the first time EVER at this year’s festival and they wowed us enough to make our list of bests! Truffle Macaroni and Cheese at Mac & Eats First up, the Mac & Eats booth had some all-around DELICIOUS options but we were especially wowed by the Truffle Macaroni and Cheese with Herbed Panko for $5.75. We had a feeling this eat was going to be a winner as soon as we saw it. Just LOOK at that presentation! Mmmmm…truffles… The mac and cheese was so creamy and full of cheesy goodness! The truffles gave the dish a more complex flavor and the herbed panko gave it a much-needed crunch. The way the flavors came together made for a complex and delicious bite. We’ll DEF be back to snack on this dish again! Want to see more of this booth? Click here! Baked Lobster Dip at Lobster Landing Our other new best was the Baked Lobster Dip with Old Bay Chips for $5.50 at Lobster Landing. This one even wowed our seafood-averse reporter! Chips and dip might seem a little lackluster compared to other festival eats, but don’t be fooled. Baked Lobster Dip The dip is warm and creamy with a lot of shredded lobster meat in it. It was like warm lobster queso, and well, we do love queso! The chips were also tasty and the Old Bay seasoning made them super flavorful. Ugh…our mouths are watering just thinking about it. To see our full review of Lobster Landing, click here! Returning Bests! These items are BACK and as TASTY as ever, landing their spots on our Best of the Fest list! Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese with Alpine Ham at The Alps This dish has been seen on this list for many, many years now. After all, you know our feelings about almost-liquid cheese. That’s right, we’re talking about the Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese with Alpine Ham, Baby Potatoes, Cornichons, and Baguette for $5.50! Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese with Alpine Ham, Baby Potatoes, Cornichons, and Baguette First of all, you’re looking at beautiful melty swiss cheese. We’re pretty much sold on that alone. But this dish is also a HEARTY serving with plenty of cheese, potatoes, and ham. Everything is cooked well and the flavors of the swiss go SO well with the ham and even the pickles! There’s a reason we keep getting this dish and you should probably give it a try if you love cheese. Click here to see our FULL REVIEW of The Alps! Frozen Rosé at The Alps The Alps also brought us the returning Frozen Rosé for $9 which comes served in this very cute glass. Heads up: This is a GREAT refreshment on a hot summer (or fall!) day. Cheers! If you’re a rosé fan, this sip will likely please. It’s a delicate balance of sweetness and dryness that helps to wash down that melty raclette cheese perfectly. Wine drinkers should make a stop to give this sip a try! Want to see more of the eats at this booth? Click here! Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake at Ireland The Ireland booth brought us a dessert entry! The Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake with Irish Cream Liqueur Custard for $4.25 might not be quite as good as the Carrot Cake over at Hops & Barley, but it was still good enough to land a spot as one of our BESTS! Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake with Irish Cream Liqueur Custard We could probably eat ten of these in one sitting. It’s super-rich and chocolatey and reminded us of a great bread pudding. The Irish cream liqueur custard was a great addition and gave this dish a nice cinnamony flavor with a hint of booze. Plus, it’s SHAREABLE with how rich it is! To see our review of Ireland, click here! Kenyan Coffee Barbecue Beef Tenderloin at Kenya And our final addition to the 2021 Food and Wine Best of the Fest list is the Kenyan Coffee Barbecue Beef Tenderloin with Sweet Potato and Corn Mealie Pap and Kachumbari Slaw for $6. Kenyan Coffee Barbecue Beef Tenderloin with Sweet Potato & Corn Mealie Pap and Kachumbari Slaw This hearty dish has a bunch of components that are lovely on their own, but it REALLY sings when you get a bite that has the beef, the mealie pap, and the slaw all together. The tenderloin was very flavorful and we loved the coffee rub, but the real stars were the sides! We could probably eat a WHOLE PLATE of that Sweet Potato & Corn Mealie Pap… . Click here for our Kenya review! BEST Newly-Opened Booth of the Fest Alright, now that we’ve gone through ALL of the new worthy items, it’s time to take things a step further. We’re giving an award for the BEST Newly-Opened Booth of the Fest. Add this to your list of must-visits… . Mac & Eats We’re giving this one to Mac & Eats! We love a booth that’s themed around macaroni and cheese and this booth is doing it SO WELL. Select from Traditional, Cowboy, Truffle, or Plant-Based; whatever you pick, you’re in for a cheesy and delicious bite! Getting our Mac and Cheese feast ON! Again, our favorite is that Truffle Mac, but the others were wow-worthy as well! Any macaroni and cheese fan will have a field day at this booth, and we definitely think it’s earned a spot as one of the best booths of the fest this year. Want to see the full review of this booth? Click here! Remember, you can head over to our FIRST Best of the Fest to check out more best eats, more best booths, our best pick for kids, the best plant-based item of the fest, and more!

Face mask rules at Disney World have changed a number of times over the past few months. Mask signage at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Most recently, Disney updated its rules to require masks be worn indoors, upon entering and throughout all attractions, and in select other locations. Since the introduction of this policy in late July, masks have been required on ALL attractions (including those that are entirely outdoors). But now, that’s about to change. According to an update shared today with travel agents, starting on August 19th, face coverings will become optional for all guests in outdoor attractions, outdoor queue areas, and outdoor theaters. Face Masks on Dumbo Masks will, however, remain required for all guests (ages 2 and up, regardless of vaccination status) while indoors and in Disney buses, monorails, and on the Disney Skyliner. Disney Skyliner Again, note that under the current mask policy, guests have been required to wear masks before entering queue spaces and boarding rides, even if the queue and ride are both outdoors. Also, while Beauty and the Beast — Live on Stage is held in an outdoor theater, when it reopened last week masks were required. It appears this updated rule, however, will change that (though Disney’s rules already noted that masks are only required in indoor theaters). Beauty and the Beast Has Reopened Again, this new rule will go into effect starting tomorrow, August 19th. We’ll keep an eye out for more details and let you know what we find. Click here to see an update that was recently made to Disney Cruise Line’s mask policy. Want to Learn More About Face Masks in Disney World? Take a Look at Our NEW DFB Face Masks HERE!

EPCOT is known for having some pretty creative food and drink offerings! Give pig ears a chance We’ve seen French ice cream sandwiches, drinks made with moonshine, and even pig ear salad (yeah, you read that right)! Yesterday, we told you about an ice cream tequila libation that was coming to EPCOT soon, and now, we have an update! We saw this peek at what was being called a “corn, almond, coffee, ice cream libation.” Instagram This was posted by a source in the Mexico Pavilion on Instagram. The account is private, but we’re writing this with permission from the account owner. Today, the same account posted that after a focus group tasting, they decided this should be a Chocolate Ice Cream Margarita instead! Instagram As you can see, there’s a bottle of Mezcal Reposado next to the drinks. Mezcal is alcohol that comes from the agave plant (like tequila) but is known for its smoky flavor. So, we can assume there will be a taste of smoke in this drink, which will go right along with that smoke bubble on top! Other drinks in the Mexico pavilion also have smoke bubbles! We’ll let you know when we find out where and when this drink will be arriving in the Mexico pavilion! Stay tuned to DFB for updates.

Although it might seem unassuming, we’ve always been fond of Yak and Yeti Restaurant at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Yak and Yeti Yak and Yeti is located in the Asia section of the park in the village of Anandapur. And what really makes it stand out is the theming (something Disney knows a thing or two about). In the past, the food has been consistently pretty good. But it’s been a while since we’ve eaten here, so we had to pop in to see if that’s still the case. Atmosphere As previously mentioned, Yak and Yeti’s bright blue and coral stucco building immediately grabs your attention, especially with its beautiful carvings and arched windows. Outside Yak and Yeti And yes, this is Disney, so there’s a back story — the building sits at the base of the Himalayan Mountains and is owned by a former merchant named Arjun. He fell on hard times, so he converted his large home into a hotel for tired travelers. At the center of the hotel sits a restaurant (and where you find yourselves as guests!). Check-in area This restaurant is practically oozing with amazing artifacts and fun details to check out. It feels authentic The shape of the restaurant centers around the open central area and many smaller rooms shoot off of it. This makes it even more appealing to explore all the details. Each room has its own treasures. The layout also makes it feel relatively intimate wherever you’re seated. Decor Seating is available both upstairs and downstairs. Upstairs But wherever you sit, don’t forget to look up. The light fixtures here are so incredible that we once dedicated a whole post to them. That’s how crazy cool and detailed this place is! Always look up Once you manage to pry yourself away from checking out all the cool stuff scattered around the building, it’s time to get to business. It’s time to EAT! Eats There are standard tables and chairs here, with paper napkins and silverware. Table A menu is available, but you can also access it via a QR code on your phone. Scan for menu First up, drinks! There is a pretty good selection of non-alcoholic beverages. ©Disney And there are PLENTY of alcoholic options to choose from! ©Disney And plenty of beer options for those who are looking for a cool frothy refreshing sip. ©Disney And, of course, wine and sake for an Asian twist on drinks. ©Disney The physical full drink menu is available upon request. Drinks! Now on with the food! This is a robust menu, with options for everyone! For appetizers, the menu features Small Plates, as well as Shareable Plates (meant for 2 people). ©Disney You’ll find Soups and Salads are also available. And a wonderful selection of Noodles and Bowls. ©Disney And, of course, house Specialties and items from the Wok. ©Disney Yak & Yeti serves up all sorts of Grilled yumminess and a solid selection of Sides to go with any entree. ©Disney And don’t forget the kiddos! There is plenty for them to choose from on the Kids’ Menu selection ©Disney And again, a physical menu is available upon request. The Eats! To drinks, we decided on the Yak Attack for $12 which, aside from having a cool name, is made with Mango Daiquiri, Don Q Cristal, and Rum and Wildberry Flavors. It sounds like a taste of summer, doesn’t it? We’re going to say it’s a very berry-forward flavored drink, although you can still taste the rum. Yak Attack It’s not the most exciting frozen drink we’ve ever had, and if you don’t like super sweet drinks, it might be a little too cloying. The rum does balance it out some, but make a note if you don’t like your drinks sugary sweet. Yak Attack We started with the Pork Egg Rolls. Yeah, these are just egg rolls, but they were nice and crunchy, the way good egg rolls should be. Sure there are more exciting appetizers, but sorry not sorry, but we do love a good eggroll. They have that perfect crisp from being freshly fried, but they weren’t greasy or heavy. Those wonton wrappers had the perfect crunch that eggroll dreams are made of. Egg rolls! They were also full of pork! You know how sometimes you order eggrolls and it’s mostly cabbage and other filler? Not here. These were pretty solid! LOADS of meat! They come with a Chili Plum Dipping Sauce, which we found very unique, and a nice change of pace from the usual Sweet and Sour dipping sauces you usually get with eggrolls. The sauce was similar to a sweet chili sauce you might find at many Chinese restaurants but with lots more flavor and sweetness. Not too spicy but it did have a little kick. We really enjoyed the sauce. The eggrolls are $11.29. This sauce! Next up was the Ahi Tuna Nachos for $18.79. You guys…these nachos knocked it out of the park. The Sushi Grade Tuna had the perfect amount of Wasabi Aioli and Sweet Soy Glaze. The Asian Slaw had a great crunch, and the combination of everything with the Crispy Fried Wontons was a sweet and spicy marriage made in heaven. Can we plz have all our nacho chips subbed out for crispety crunchy wonton chips? SO good. NACHOS! Most surprisingly, there was quite a bit of heat coming off this plate (so a little more than the usual Disney spicy, which may or may not be your thing). And look at that portion size! They did not skimp! All of the best parts of sushi, salad, and eggrolls came together to form a superpowered app called the Ahi Tuna Nachos. This superpowered app (or should we say meal cause LOOK at how much you get!) is the next level of food evolution and will save the world from the threat of boring and mundane meals. Each component is basically like the kids from Captain Planet and when they come together, BAM. Captain Planet appears and incredible things happen. That’s right folks, never fear, the Ahi Tuna Nachos are here! And yes, we compared nachos to Captain Planet. No regrets. Yummy AND spicy We HIGHLY recommend these bomb nachos. Obviously, if you’re not a fan of raw fish this is gonna be a hard pass for you since it’s loaded with raw tuna. But if you like fresh fish, spice, and a LOT of food, order the Captain Planet Nachos. I mean, Ahi Tuna Nachos. We decided to squeeze some more veggies into our meal, so we also tried the Wok Fried Green Beans for $11.79. Hey — they might be fried, but they’re still GREEN BEANS, so yes, they count as a serving of veggies — we don’t make the rules. The Battered and Fried Green Beans were good and crunchy — they had a nice snap when we bit into them. FRIED veggies are still healthy, right? The Thai Chili Dipping Sauce was also good, although not as unique as the sauce we got with the eggrolls. Dipping sauces FTW! When it comes to entrees, guests have a choice of Noodles and Bowls, Specialties, Wok, and Grilled. We decided on Noodles and ordered the Lo Mein Combo, which is Lo Mein Noodles with Carrots, Cabbage, Green Onions, Bean Sprouts, Chicken, and Shrimp. Because two meats are always better than one, right? We found the chicken and shrimp to both be very flavorful, so we, obviously, made the right decision. But for some reason, we really wanted to see some mushrooms in there, too! We thought having one more veggie or flavor in the mix would really elevate this. Noods The noodles were thick and cooked well, but we have to admit that for $21.99, this wasn’t anything very different from what you could get in any other Chinese restaurant outside of Disney. This will please a lot of people with its large portion and fresh flavors, but it’s not the most adventurous thing on the menu. TBH, we’re still dreaming of the killer Tuna Nachos… . Lots of meat and veggies A meal at Disney World cannot possibly end without dessert, and there are some pretty good choices available here. Now we’ve already talked about the Mango Pie at great length (we’ve basically written sonnets to the creamy yummy pie), so we decided to for something new this time around. We ordered the Fried Wontons. These are made with Cream Cheese Wontons and Fresh Pineapple — on skewers! Dessert on skewers And it’s served with Vanilla Ice Cream and a Honey-Vanilla Drizzle. PLUS strawberries! Ice cream AND a honey-vanilla drizzle, say what? And you guys…our mouths are just watering as we remember eating these because they were exquisite! The taste of the cream cheese wontons paired with the sweet glaze PLUS the ice cream had us wanting to beg for seconds. And the fresh pineapple just brought the whole dessert up a notch. A win! If you really love a good Crab Rangoon at your local Chinese joint, RUN to get these! It’s that sans crab in dessert form. So so good. That dessert was the BEST way to end this meal and we now have something else sweet to wax poetic about here other than the Mango Pie (or those Ahi Tuna Nachos — we’ll be dreaming about that for a while). Nosh or Not? Head on over to Yak and Yeti Restaurant if… You love Asian fusion cuisine and like the occasional adventurous dining experience. You want to dine in a place with an authentic Asian feel and loads to admire while you eat. You need to get out of the Florida heat and want to enjoy a longer table service meal in Animal Kingdom. Table Service here is limited and this is one of the less pricey options compared to spots like Tiffins or Tusker House. Skip Yak and Yeti Restaurant if… You are looking for a meal with the Characters, this isn’t that spot — you’d need to head over to Tusker House. You’re not looking to sit down for a chunk of your day in Animal Kingdom to eat. We’d recommend hitting up the neighboring Yak and Yeti Local Foods Cafes fast food option nearby for Asian eats fast and cheap. You’re not a fan of Asian fare. They DO have a burger and a few other items on the menu, but we think you’ll appreciate the spot more if you like Asian food. Overall With table service restaurants like Tiffin’s and Tusker House getting so much attention at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, we can see how Yak and Yeti is often overlooked, which is a shame. The theming here is on point, and the food is, as we previously said, consistently good. And although our noodle dish didn’t wow us, everything else was not just delicious but was also a great value (especially when you consider the higher prices of those other table service restaurants). Also note that this is a Landry’s-owned restaurant, which means that if you’re a member of Landry’s rewards program, you could get a discount on your meal here. Saving money at Disney World? Count us in! Yak and Yeti will offer you up an adventure not just in its dining room, but also with its food. What’s better than dining within the shadow of Expedition Everest? And eating here could enlighten your spirit of adventure so much that it will have you ready and willing to take on the infamous Yeti after. Just…you know…give the food time to settle first. You don’t want to become REaquainted with those Ahi Tuna Nachos, no matter how tasty they were! Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox! Click here to Subscribe!

Disney World executives and creative types loom above us thanks to tribute windows Main Street at Magic Kingdom. View the full article Disney World at 50: Main Street windows are clear honor Select Disney executives and creative types will loom above us always, thanks to the tribute windows along the upper level of Main Street, U.S.A. at Magic Kingdom. For this week’s installment of Disney World at 50 series, which publishes Wednesdays at OrlandoSentinel.com/wdw50, we’ll look at names that represent folks who molded the theme parks and the resort. The shout-outs fit into the turn-of-the-century theming of Main Street. Each one advertises a fictional business with a location along the theme park’s main drag. Magic Kingdom recently honored four more folks. Getting the window treatment were Phil Holmes, Trevor Larsen, Jim MacPhee and Djuan Rivers, a foursome of high-level retirees with Disney VP on their resumes. They are bundled as “faculty” for the Academy of Talent Education and Training on the window, which includes the slogan “inspiring success for a new century.” A legacy window honors General Joe Potter over the Main Street Confectionery in the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. Potter was instrumental in the transformation of the waterways and lakes at Walt Disney World in the 1960s. (Joe Burbank / Orlando Sentinel) “It seems like once you have this window as a part of your legacy, the responsibility is of continuing to lead the way and to pave the way for those in the future, so the words on this plaque are apropos for us all,” Rivers said in a video posted on social media. Their window addition is on the left side of the street as you walk toward Cinderella Castle. Their names are seen above the Emporium. The tradition is a carry-over from Disneyland, although honorees don’t always appear on the panes of both coasts. There are dozens of names along Magic Kingdom’s Main Street to examine, but here are a few to note. ➤ Main Street visitors may recognize names of Imagineers and well-known leaders, but windows have also been designated for people with behind-the-scenes roles, including everyday topics such as accounting, land acquisition and operations. A colorful example that straddles backstage planning and onstage atmosphere goes to Lonnie Lindley, head of the Walt Disney World paint shop, and someone who actually knew Walt Disney while working at Disneyland. He transferred to Florida before WDW opened. The window for Rainbow Paint Co., with colors diving into a pot of gold, salutes Lindley and has included the phrase “world’s largest collection of color samples.” It’s above the Emporium but facing City Hall, near the Harmony Barber Shop. ➤ Donn Tatum was CEO of Walt Disney Co. in the 1970s, and his window also references the dummy corporations created to buy the land where Disney World stands. The window is punny: Tatum is presented as president of M.T. Lott Real Estate Investments. It can be seen at a jaunty angle on Main Street above the Crystal Arts shop. ➤ Mary Blair’s reputation revolves around her sense of color, the styling of “it’s a small world” and the jumbo mosaic inside Disney’s Contemporary Hotel. Her window — which also salutes Collin Campbell, Herbert Ryman, Blaine Gibson and Dorothea Redmond — makes reference to painting and sculpture. It’s on Center Street, the cul-de-sac about halfway down Main Street. Window honorees are heavily male, with way more Bobs, Toms and Jacks than Marys and Dorotheas. A female executive fairly recently honored is Meg Crofton, former president of Walt Disney Parks & Resorts. Her window is nearby, adjacent to the Holmes-Larsen-MacPhee-Rivers pane. ➤ Frank Wells was president of Walt Disney Co. for 10 years as well as an avid mountain climber. His Main Street window, above Crystal Arts, lists him as president of Seven Summits Expeditions. Wells has a similar window at Disneyland, but on a Disneyland Paris window, he’s listed as a conductor — along with Michael Eisner — of the Main Street Marching Band. ➤ Walt Disney, naturally, appears on a window, although it might not be as prominent as expected. He’s part of the Graduate School of Design & Master Planning, which is above the Plaza restaurant and faces Cinderella Castle. Other “instructors” and “deans” on the window include Howard Brummitt, Marvin Davis, Fred Hope, Vic Greene, Bill Martin, Chuck Myall, John Hench and Richard Irvine. There are other Disney relatives up there, including Walt’s father, Elias, who appears as a contractor above Uptown Jewelers on Center Street. Dewayne Bevil Orlando Sentinel

‘Ohana at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort has been open for a little over a month now, serving a modified menu for lunch and dinner. ‘Ohana at the Polynesian Resort This menu was apparently very temporary because they’re already switching it up and bringing back some old favorites! We’re back at ‘Ohana today to try the new, er, old? menu items again! Take a look at what we found! Let’s start with a quick overview of what’s changed at ‘Ohana with this menu update. Beginning today, with the ‘Ohana Dinner Skillet, you can now get Wood-fire Grilled Teriyaki Beef, Spicy Peel-n-Eat Shrimp, Grilled Chicken with Polynesian-inspired Chimichurri Sauce, ‘Ohana Noodles, and Roasted Broccolini. What you won’t find anymore is the Island Shrimp Casserole and the Kielbasa Sausage. Besides that, the menu is the same! (Yes, the bread pudding is still there. We think ‘Ohana knows better than to mess with a classic like that.) Despite all the changes, ‘Ohana is STILL a family-style offering with a flat fee of $33 per kiddo and $55 per adult! So let’s head in and try everything out! Atmosphere When we got to ‘Ohana, we used a virtual check-in and got a message when our table was ready! We got our message! Then, we headed over to the check-in desk… Checking in! …and we were led to our table, which had a QR code for the menu! Our lovely table setting for the evening! On our trip to ‘Ohana we got the Polynesian Mai Tai with Plantation Original Dark Rum, Bacardí Superior Rum, Bols Orange Curaçao, Lime Juice, Orgeat (Almond) for $13 and Pure Cane Sugar and the Dragon Iced Tea with Hendrick’s Gin, Lemon and Ginger Herbal Tea, Tropical Juices, and Blood Orange for $14! Remember: alcoholic drinks are NOT included with the flat fee for the meal. The Polynesian Mai Tai (left) and the Dragon Iced Tea (right). To start our meal, we got Mixed Greens Salad with Citrus Vinaigrette and the ‘Ohana Coconut-Papaya Scones. Note: Despite the menu update, the classic ‘Ohana bread was not back when we visited, and according to a Cast Member, the scones are here to stay. We will let you know if things change, but for now, the Cast Member shared that you can find the ‘Ohana Bread at Kona Cafe. The Scone and Salad were a great way to start! Next, we got the ‘Ohana Dinner Skillet with Wood-fire Grilled Teriyaki Beef, Spicy Peel-n-Eat Shrimp, Grilled Chicken with Polynesian-inspired Chimichurri Sauce, ‘Ohana Noodles, and Roasted Broccolini! It’s actually not one, but FOUR skillets of delicious goodness! The ‘Ohana Noodles were amazing (we could write a whole book about those tasty noodles!) and we really enjoyed having all these ‘Ohana favorites back! We also grabbed the Honey-Coriander Chicken Wings and the Pork Dumplings Tossed In Garlic-Chili Sauce, which were both delicious savory options! Delicious Noodles, Wings, and Dumplings! The Wood-fire Grilled Teriyaki Beef was just as good as last time we visited with a nice smokey, sweet flavor that gave a nice and balanced bite! Yum! The Grilled Chicken with Polynesian-inspired Chimichurri Sauce was a great addition to the plate as well and we loved the chimichurri! The chicken has returned to its former glory! The Spicy Peel-n-Eat Shrimp are back in action! Although they still aren’t the classic skewers we remember, they still have the delicious savory-but-not-too-spicy flavor we know and love! They’re a little bit messy to peel, but definitely a great light protein. The shrimp has also returned to its deliciously messy glory! And of course, we HAD to end our night with some delicious ‘Ohana Bread Pudding made À la mode with Homemade Caramel Sauce! Do we even need to say anything about this, it’s still perfection (even if there aren’t any bananas on it!). No better way to end the night! We’re excited to get you all a full review of the new (old?) ‘Ohana menu! Keep following DFB for more updates on what’s new with food in Disney World!

Disneyland sure knows how to enhance their treats! We’ve seen shiny new popcorn buckets and over-the-top hot dogs before, but now we’ve spotted something new. Clarabelle’s Hand-Scooped Ice Cream We visited Clarabelle’s Hand-Scooped Ice Cream at Disney California Adventure Park recently, and we were ready to cool off with a sweet treat. While we were there, we found a fun, new way to hold our snack! You can buy a Mickey Mouse or Minnie Mouse kitchen sink at Clarabelle’s (seen below to the right-hand side) to hold your ice cream treats, but now you can also buy a Mickey ear hat to house your tasty sundae! Decisions, decisions… On the menu this is officially listed as the “Together Again Mickey Ear Hat Bowl with Sundae.” For $13.99, you get the Mickey Mouse Ear Hat Bowl plus your choice of one of the following sundaes: The Oswald Sundae, Mint Chocolate Chip Sundae, Chocolate Chip Cookie Hot Fudge Sundae, Strawberry Sundae, or Mocha Almond Fudge Sundae. Can We Interest You in Some Ice Cream, Walt? For our dessert, we went with the Mint Chocolate Chip Sundae. Clarabelle’s Hand Scooped Ice Cream The sundae came with plenty of chocolate chips and a cherry on top. But the real star of our photoshoot is that snazzy black Mickey Ear Hat Bowl! This looks so yummy! The bowl is very similar to the Mickey Mouse Club Ear Hat Bowl we saw before over at Award Wieners, and it’s similar to one we’ve seen at Disney World as well, but those featured the Mickey Mouse Club logo, while this one has the Disneyland Logo. Also, note that the ice cream is not actually served in the hat bowl itself. It’s served in a Disney container that is placed inside the hat bowl. While some of your ice cream may spill out onto the bowl itself, having it mainly contained in that separate bowl makes cleaning up and carrying your bowl around that much easier (and less sticky)! Mickey Hat Bowl Head on over to Clarabelle’s at Disney California Adventure if you want to pick up this adorable Mickey Hat Bowl. It’s definitely fun for photos and you could use it to store some of your Disney keepsakes at home when you’re finished eating. We’ll keep an eye out for more Disney news and let you know what we find, so stay tuned for more! REVIEW: Did We Just Find One of the BEST Frozen Drinks in Disneyland?

Disney World has some seriously next-level cinnamon rolls if you know where to look. Cinnamon Roll at Gaston’s Tavern We tried the Halloween Mickey-shaped cinnamon roll in Disney’s Magic Kingdom today with high hopes that the made-over pastry would join the ranks of amazingly gooey treats from the park! Unfortunately, all our hopes were dashed just one bite in. In the past, we loved the giant cinnamon rolls on the menu at the Main Street Bakery. So when we saw that the Halloween version of this treat was back, we rushed over to try it! To the bakery! We waited patiently in line… Waiting patiently …until we saw what we came for: a Mickey-shaped cinnamon roll with orange-drizzle icing. There it is! We even took the roll outside for the photoshoot of its life! Two happy Halloween Mickeys But when we bit into the much-anticipated treat, our joy deflated like a week-old Mickey balloon. We were expecting an ooey-gooey, fluffy roll with a strong cinnamon flavor and sweet notes from the orange icing. What did we get? A thin, hard roll that honestly tasted stale when we chewed. Such a disappointment Despite the strong cinnamon smell, we could hardly taste any spice at all. Where did all the cinnamon go? That plus the dry bread just made this an overall sad experience. We just needed a fresh roll with more icing! All we did was love you, Mickey cinnamon roll This was likely a bad batch! And you may have a very different cinnamon roll experience. BUT — on a happy note — you can still get the fluffy, gooey confection we ADORE over at Gaston’s Tavern in Fantasyland! THIS cinnamon roll from Gaston’s Tavern will NOT disappoint you! If you wanna give it a try, you can find it for $6.49 at the Main Street Bakery. Keep following DFB for honest reviews of food around Disney World!

When the Monorail resumed operations in Disney World last summer, it was running limited service with some trains, stations, and loops not available right away. The Monorail is a great way to get to Magic Kingdom! Since then, we’ve seen more Monorails return to service, as well as the reopening of the EPCOT Monorail loop. And with construction making good progress at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort’s Monorail station, we’re closer than ever to the Disney World Monorail service being back 100%. Today, we were able to hop on another Monorail that recently returned to service: Monorail Gold! Monorail Gold! Monorail Gold has the same new sleek design we’ve seen being added to the other trains in the fleet, including Orange, Peach, and Silver. Very sleek on the inside The vibrant gold hues can be spotted inside and outside of the Monorail cars. The Disney World logo decorates the interior, with “Monorail Gold” prominently featured above the seating area. A lovely day to take a trip on the Monorail! It certainly gives off very “regal” vibes with its brilliant gold coloring! Monorail Gold Check out the newly refurbished Monorail Gold in action! We’ll be on the lookout for more updates from Disney World’s transportation systems! Be sure to follow along for all of the latest news and information.

Hello again from Disney’s Hollywood Studios! Hollywood Studios We’ve been seeing a ton of new Halloween snacks at Disney’s Hollywood Studios and now we’re here with all the new updates this week, from somewhat disappointing Halloween popcorn to Beauty and the Beast — Live on Stage reopening. So, let’s get right into it! Disney’s Hollywood Studios Food Updates Halloween Snacks We found Halloween popcorn! Except it’s exactly the same as the Sweet & Savory popcorn we’ve seen offered at Hollywood Studios in the past, just dyed differently for Halloween. It doesn’t taste as festive as it looks. It looks fun, but we were a little disappointed that there isn’t a new spooky popcorn flavor to try. Still, if you’re looking for a Halloween-looking snack, keep an eye out for these in the park. A new Mickey Mummy Popcorn Bucket will be released soon! We had to try the Halloween Candy Corn Shake again and we noticed it was a bit more orange/peach-colored this time.
