Oh Gideon’s Bakehouse, how dearly we love you. Gideon’s Bakehouse If you’ve been keeping up with us, you know that we fell hard for this cookie haven that opened last month at Disney Springs. And, really, it’s hard not to fall head over heels for a 1/2 cookie the size of your face! Today is the first day of the month so out with the old Coffee Toffee Cookie and in with a NEW cookie of the month (and MORE)! The bakehouse has been releasing a limited-time cookie each month so guests can explore new flavors of ginormous cookies. Be still our hearts. We could talk about our love for this unique bakehouse for days, but that’s now why you’re here! So without further ado, we present the February cookie of the month — Eternal Flame! But wait, there’s MORE! Gideon’s Bakehouse surprised us all with TWO MORE February specials including the Eternal Flame Double Frosted Cake and the Eternal Flame EXTRA SPICY cookie! Gideon’s Bakehouse February 2021 Menu Obviously we had to try it all so we headed to Disney Springs to be one of the first in line for these new offerings! Plus, Gideon’s Bakehouse shared on Instagram that the cookie and cake pair well with the Ginger Snap Cold Brew, so we had to give that a try too (duh!). Gideon’s Bakehouse February Specials This month’s cookie is packed with spicy flavor (and we’re not mad about it)! The Eternal Flame Cookie is a dark chocolate cookie laced with ancho, cayenne, and cinnamon. And it’s topped with chocolate covered cherries. Gideon’s described the flavor as “a deep chocolate flavor followed by the tingling warmth of a first kiss and sweet aftertaste of cherries.” But enough about ingredients. Let’s chat about TASTE! Eternal Flame Cookie We seriously enjoyed this cookie and can confirm that it’s got a kick on the back end! The spicy flavor of the cayenne and ancho are balanced out by the sweetness from the chocolate and tart cherries, making this cookie a home run in our books. Eternal Flame Cookie C’mon, just look at that velvety chocolate cookie! And, if you’re feeling extra adventurous, the bonus cookie, Eternal Flame Extra Spicy Cookie brings some serious to the dessert. The 2X Limited Edition cookie has the same dark chocolate cookie laced with ancho, cayenne, and cinnamon and topped with chocolate covered cherries but has EXTRA HEAT and is sprinkled with red sugar crystals on top. Eternal Flame Extra Spicy Cookie When we put in our order at Gideon’s for this cookie, everyone was like “are you sure!?” Not all visitors are prepared to level up an already spicy cookie. But, we don’t let spice scare us off! Plus, it gave us a great excuse to order a cup of Vanilla Buttercream Frosting (because who doesn’t love a tub of Gideon’s frosting?!). Gideon’s Vanilla Buttercream Frosting The Eternal Flame Extra Spicy Cookie itself delivers on it’s promise and it VERY hot! But, our reporter who gave this a try likes spice so actually really enjoyed the added flavor. Plus, the buttercream from the frosting balanced out the heat well and was nothing short of incredible. Cookie + frosting = match made in dessert heaven. Eternal Flame Extra Spicy Cookie Dipped in Buttercream Each chunky specialty cookie is $6 and is ONLY available in the month of February! If you’re a fan of spicy flavors or more of an adventurous eater you’ll likely enjoy these cookies (much like our reporter). BUT, these cookies come with a warning label — if you’re not a fan of spicy food or spicy desserts, it might be best to pass on this one. Ginger Snap Cold Brew And, per Gideon’s suggestion, we paired the cookies with the Ginger Snap Cold Brew for $6. This drink is available throughout the year at the bakehouse, and paired really well with the cookies. It’s not too sweet but we pick up lots of ginger snap flavor! Read our FULL REVIEW of the Ginger Snap Cold Brew! But wait, what about the Eternal Flame Double Frosted Cake?! The February cake hadn’t made it’s way to Disney Springs when we stopped by but you get we’ll be back to give it a try so stay tuned! Before you head over to Disney Springs to grab yourself one of these babies, be sure to check out all our experiences with Gideon’s virtual waitlist. We’re not the only ones fan-girling over all the sweets from this shop so the wait times can compete with some Disney attractions!

It’s officially February which means it’s Valentine’s season! Marketplace Snacks We’ve already seen lots of Valentine’s Day merchandise in the parks and online, and we’ve got a list of Valentine’s Day treats to try. We’re starting off the month with a brand new treat in Disney Springs! Starting today at Marketplace Snacks, guests can grab A Valentine Swirl for $5.49! This treat is giving us some serious Valentine’s Day vibes, but how does it taste? A Valentine Swirl This location is known for serving all kinds of Dole Whip (including the infamous watermelon), and this treat is made of a swirl of Strawberry Dole Whip and Chocolate Soft-Serve with a Chocolate-dipped Strawberry Garnish. A Valentine Swirl One super neat note is that the chocolate-covered strawberry was made by the team at Amorette’s Patisserie just around the corner in Disney Springs! A Valentine Swirl This didn’t exactly surprise us but that strawberry was DELICIOUS. C’mon, chocolate smothering a fresh strawberry? That’s a classic and perfect flavor combo. A Valentine Swirl In the past, we’ve felt like the Strawberry Dole Whip has had a really artificial taste and that’s true here too but the chocolate definitely helps to soften that. We like the swirl better than the strawberry on its own! A Valentine Swirl If you’re not a fan of artificial strawberry flavoring, you might want to skip this one. But if you don’t mind it, it’s a solid treat! A Valentine Swirl This is only one of the first treats we’ve tried for the Valentine’s Day season, and we’ll be making our way around Disney World and Disneyland Resort trying them all!

Wendy’s Welcome Home with Disney Legend Kathryn Beaumont | Disney Files on Demand View the full article

The Hollywood Brown Derby fits right in with the swanky feel of Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Hollywood Brown Derby This spot is one of our most tried and true restaurants in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This signature dining location provides an upscale feeling of glitz and glamour that most people associate with the feeling of walking down Hollywood Boulevard. It hasn’t been too long since our last visit to the Brown Derby, but we’re back again (what can we say, we’re suckers for a good Cobb Salad!) to give you an updated look into this snazzy spot! Atmosphere The magic of the Brown Derby is that it transports you into a classic, old-Hollywood era. This comes as no surprise since the restaurant is modeled after the actual Brown Derby restaurants that opened in Los Angeles in the 1920s. These restaurants welcomed Tinseltown’s prominent players who stopped by for a drink or a bite to eat during their breaks from filming or after a long day. Hollywood Brown Derby The original Brown Derby restaurant (but not the exact location that the Disney World spot was modeled after) was shaped like a men’s derby hat, which would fittingly become an icon for the spot. The restaurant is located at the end of Hollywood Boulevard, nestled on the corner. The Hollywood Brown Derby As guests make their way into the Hollywood Brown Derby, they’ll find a small lounge area outside. Under normal circumstances, guests would be able to order small plates to enjoy outside at this first come, first served style lounge. Right now, the lounge is only offering drinks. Hollywood Brown Derby Lounge Since Reopening As we make our way into the Brown Derby, we’re immediately met with that old Hollywood charm that’s drawn out into the architecture, Cast Member’s costumes, and especially, the decor that lines the walls. The entrance area is cozy with tuxedoed Cast Members to greet you. We checked in with the Mobile Dine Check-in feature on My Disney Experience and waited around in the entrance area for our text that our table was ready. Brown Derby Host Podium The original Brown Derby restaurants were no stranger to hosting Hollywood’s celebs. The black and white sketches bring life to the walls of the restaurant by featuring some familiar faces who would grab a bite to eat at the Brown Derby during breaks from filming. A caricature artist would often roam the restaurant capturing likenesses of its patrons. They add a lot of character to the swanky, high-class feel of this restaurant famous for hosting Hollywood’s haunts. MOST of these framed photos are recreations of the originals, but a few in gold frames are actually drawings from the real Derby! Caricatures A nod to the iconic derby hat can be seen in the lighting fixtures with a fun, brass lampshade! Derby Hat Light Fixture The main dining area is warm and inviting. Lots of cozy incandescent lighting, rich woods, and brass. Dining Area In order to follow health and safety guidelines, not all tables within the restaurant are available at the moment, as we’ve seen in most Disney restaurants. The dining area includes standard tables, as well as booths covered with white tablecloths. At our table, we were met with cloth napkins with utensils, along with paper menus and a QR code to access the menu (more on that soon). Unavailable Table at the Brown Derby While we think the decor is great, let’s get into our favorite part of all — the food! Check out our review of the Brown Derby from 2019 Eats Not only is the Brown Derby successful in its theming and character, but it also serves up some GREAT eats. We’ve visited this spot lots of times and we have yet to be let down. This restaurant offers contemporary American cuisine, including a phenomenal Cobb Salad and a delicious Grapefruit Cake. Now, these are some of the staple items from the Brown Derby, but on this trip, we decided to mix the classics with some different items. Let’s get into the menu! We visited The Hollywood Brown Derby for dinner and were met with paper menus. The drink menu included an extensive collection of wines and champagne. Wine Menu Plus, there’s an expansive selection of specialty cocktails, beer, cider, and pretty much anything your heart could desire, it seems. Note they do have a full and very well-stocked bar here, so if you don’t see what you’re after, feel free to ask your server! Drink Menu In order to access the dinner menu, we were given a QR code to scan. We’ve seen this in many Disney restaurants since its reopening. QR Code for Dinner Menu The dinner menu includes an array of appetizers including a Lobster Bisque and a Charcuterie Board (more on that later). We’ve tried the Shrimp Cocktail on our last visit. It was good, but the size was well…shrimpy for the price paid! ©Disney The entrées selection includes a plant-based option, along with seafood, a Wagyu Burger, and of course, that Famous Cobb Salad that we just can’t get enough of! No seriously, we order it, like, every time we come here. ©Disney The kids’ selection of appetizers is a little scarce at the moment, with just a Chopped Salad and Chicken Noodle Soup. ©Disney Kids’ Entrées see some classic options like chicken and a hot dog, but there are also some interesting options like Vegetarian Pho! Each entree comes with two selections, and those options include… ©Disney …the choice of these sides! Kids can get their fruits AND veggies when selecting from this list. ©Disney As previously mentioned, the Grapefruit Cake is a Brown Derby Original and it’s a true dessert masterpiece. We dined her right around Christmas so some seasonal desserts were offered including an Eggnog Crème Brûlée and a Peppermint Flourless Chocolate Cake. ©Disney We last visited the Brown Derby in late November, so not very long ago at all! Since our last review, the entrées have remained the same but the appetizers have seen a slight change. The Curried Butternut Squash Soup which incorporated lots of fall flavors has been replaced with the Lobster Bisque. Additionally, the Mango-Passion Fruit Mousse and the Chocolate Mousse Cake were switched out for the seasonal desserts! However, they’re still available as allergy-friendly dessert options. Check out our latest review of the Brown Derby here! On this visit to the Hollywood Brown Derby, we dabbled in a delicious appetizer, the evergreen Famous Cobb Salad, an indulgent dessert, and one of the many flights offered on the drink menu! Charcuterie Board and Martini Flight Let’s jump right in. First, we were served rolls with salted butter. Rolls Basket and Butter These were pretty standard dinner rolls, but the added salt on the butter was a nice touch of heightened flavor. Roll Why order just one martini when you can have three?! We ordered the Martini Flight which includes the Derby Vodka, Derby Gin, and Pomegranate Martinis. Martini Flight We tried the Martini Flight a few years back, but it’s gotten some updates since then! The flight previously included the Classic Gin Martini with Hendrick’s Cucumber and Rose Petal Infused Gin and Dry Vermouth. The second martini was the Citrus Vodka, with Absolut Citrus Vodka, Cointreau, and simple syrup. And the third was the Derby Cosmo with Absolut Pears Vodka, Grand Marnier, and cranberry juice. Previous Brown Derby Lounge Martini Flight We loved the Martini Flight then, and we still love it now with the updates it’s gotten! Martini Flight The Derby Vodka was our personal favorite out of the three. The drink includes Grey Goose Vodka with Dry Vermouth, plus a lemon garnish. Being basically glasses full of pure booze, these are obviously strong. Derby Vodka The lemon was more of a flavor than it was added acidity. Super smooth and drinkable and the brightness of the lemon added a great flavor. Derby Vodka Next up, is the Derby Gin with Nolet’s Dry Gin and Dry Vermouth. Gin lovers will especially appreciate this drink because the gin flavor is strong but really enjoyable. Derby Gin And of course, what’s a martini without an olive? Derby Gin The Pomegranate Martini incorporates Absolut Citron, Pomegranate Liqueur, and Cranberry Juice. This drink was quite sweet and reminded us of the Cosmo that used to be included in the Martini Flight! Pomegranate Martini If you enjoy a sweet cocktail with underlying fruity tones, you’ll love this one! The pomegranate adds a light, fruity flavor to this drink but doesn’t push the boundaries of being overly sweet. Pomegranate Martini We think the flights that the Brown Derby offers are a fun way of trying a bunch of different drinks for roughly the same price as if you’d just ordered one by itself. Martini fans will love this assortment because it allows you to taste a bit of each of the options. And how could you choose just one?! Plus, it pairs classic Martini flavors with more fresh and updated takes on the drink. This flight costs $17. By Disney standards, that’s a downright bargain! Martini Flight If you’re not a fan of drinks straight up or prefer your drinks a little sweeter to cut the alcohol, maybe consider the Margarita Flight over this one. Same vibe but a bit more drinkable if you’re not down for straight liquor. With flavors like blood orange and traditional lime, you’ll get a sweeter sip! Martini Flight After tasting our way through the martinis, we moved on to the Charcuterie Board. The chef’s selection of cured meats during our visit included Cured Salami, Prosciutto, and Bresaola. The meats were accompanied by Sharp Cheddar, Blue Cheese, and Gouda with a Wine Rub. Plus, for some additional flavors, it came with Local Honey and Pickles with Pickled Onions and Olives. And of course, crackers! Charcuterie Board The board was displayed beautifully. The bresaola even looks like a rose! Bresaola is a salted beef that originated in Northern Italy. It’s served thinly sliced and has a rich, salty flavor to it. Bresaola The prosciutto was also displayed nicely! This was a classic paper thin cut of prosciutto incorporating both the sweetness and saltiness of the cured ham. Prosciutto Out of the choices of meats, the Cured Salami was our favorite. It had a little bit of spice to it, as you can see the little bits of peppercorn in the slices. Cured Salami Now, let’s move on to the cheeses! First up, we’ve got the sharp cheddar. This had the rich taste that you would associate with slightly aged cheese. Sharp cheddar is typically aged for 6-9 months, giving it a fuller body of flavor compared to a mild, non-aged cheese. Sharp Cheddar We were given a nice portion of the blue cheese, which was garnished with some aged grapes still on the stem. Take a look at all the blue veins running through the cheese. We enjoyed it, but we know that blue cheese has a strong flavor that just isn’t some people’s jam. Luckily, there’s another cheese for those folks to try. Blue Cheese The gouda with wine rub was our favorite cheese on this board! Since gouda is a mild cheese, the wine rub gave it some added flavor that we really enjoyed. Gouda with Wine Rub For a bit of added sweetness to the board, a portion of local honey was included. It was sweet, of course, and added a different dimension of texture to the charcuterie board. Interestingly, it was served ON a fork, so if you have multiple people nibbling on your board, you might need to dump it on the board to cut it up to share! Local Honey With sweet, you’ve gotta have sour, too. That’s where the pickles, pickled onions, and olives come into play. Pickles, Pickled Onions, and Olives This trio of pickled goodies provided a little extra bite, plus some more saltiness. Pickles and Pickled Onions The crackers we were given to pair with our cheeses, meats, and other accompaniments were crispy, with different types of sesame seeds. Crackers Of course, we had to try a couple of pairings together! We put the pickles together with the crackers for a nice bite. Pickle and Cracker Overall, we thought the Charcuterie Board was really well-curated. We found that the selection of meats and cheeses paired well together, and similar to the Martini Flight, we liked being able to sample a little bit of everything. Many cheese boards in Disney World tend to be a bit too heavy on the cheese or the meat, meaning you run out of one way before the other. Not here! Charcuterie Board If we could’ve changed anything, we would’ve liked to see some spreads included along with the accompaniments. An addition like mustard, or another savory spread like a pâté, would really tie the board together nicely. Honey and Gouda We think this board is a homerun for charcuterie fans because you get a lot of variety and hefty portions for the price of $21. Charcuterie Boards are fairly common these days, so if you’re looking to try something a little more interesting, the Brown Derby offers more unique options like the Pan-Seared Scallops with Roasted Pork Belly. Plus, you’ll still be able to get your charcuterie fix in a smaller portion from spots like BaseLine Tap House (another fav charcuterie board), also in Hollywood Studios. Charcuterie Board and Martini Flight Now, the moment we’ve all been waiting for — it’s time for the Famous Cobb Salad. You knew it was coming. Let’s just all appreciate this fab salad together. We ordered this when we visited last month, and we ordered it yet again. Surprised? You shouldn’t be! We’ve yet to have a negative experience with this salad so we keep coming back for more again and again. This dish incorporates the classic flavors you’ll find in a Cobb Salad, including Spit-Roasted Turkey, Finely Chopped Greens, Bacon, Egg, Tomatoes, Avocado, Chives, Crumbled Blue Cheese, and Cobb Dressing. Typically, a Cast Member will prepare the salad by mixing it tableside. With the new health and safety measures in place, you can now request if you’d like it to be prepared tableside or not. We were so excited about our salad we didn’t snap a pre-toss photo! Cobb Salad We love this salad because it’s a classic and it has yet to disappoint us or leave us wanting more. It’s fresh and each bite treats you to a variety of flavors. The flavors are standard for a Cobb Salad, but this is no boring salad. Plus, it’s an excellent portion, especially for its price of $18. This is particularly noteworthy when you look at basic salad options from quick-service locations in Hollywood Studios that cost almost as much, like the Mediterranean Salad with Chicken from ABC Commissary for $12. Salad sounds like rabbit food but this is a hearty MEAL. One day, we may have a negative word to say about this salad but it won’t be today. Check out our most recent review of the Cobb Salad! Now, onto the sweet stuff. We ordered the Chocolate-Coconut Cake which includes a Chocolate Sauce, Hazelnut Cream, Fresh Raspberries, and the cake, of course, for $12. Chocolate-Coconut Cake The cake itself was incredibly rich and dense (everything you want a chocolate cake to be). Chocolate-Coconut Cake The accompanying flavors of raspberry and hazelnut paired really nicely with the chocolate. The addition of those stronger flavors breaks up a lot of the richness of the chocolate as well. Chocolate-Coconut Cake A nice bonus of this cake is that it’s actually plant-based! However, we probably wouldn’t have known if we weren’t told. Chocolate-Coconut Cake We really liked this dessert, but the Disney kid in our hearts would still choose that classic Mickey Bar or another fun, themed treat elsewhere in Hollywood Studios. Chocolate-Coconut Cake Ultimately, this is an awesome choice for chocolate lovers (of course) and someone on a plant-based diet in search of a super-rich and satisfying dessert. Nosh or Not Consider dining at The Hollywood Brown Derby if: You’re interested in trying the classics of Disney World restaurants and want to “take a bite out of history,” so to speak (learn more about the history of this restaurant’s classic dishes here!). You’ve got an upscale palate with a liking towards finer ingredients and well-curated flavor pairings. You’re all about the feeling of classic Hollywood and want to immerse yourself into the feel of Hollywood Studios. Apart from the great food, a big draw of this spot is the atmosphere, after all. Other sit-down locations in Hollywood Studios focus more on fun in theming or characters. This is a spot to slow down, enjoy a meal, and relax. Consider skipping The Hollywood Brown Derby if: You’re in search of a quick and light meal. Typically, the Brown Derby also offers lounge-style dining with small plates, but it’s only serving up cocktails and other drinks outside at the moment. Baseline TapHouse is another good option in the park for a light meal, but options are quite limited. We have had luck recently at Rosie’s All-American Cafe though if you’re looking for fresher, lighter fare! You’re not really looking to splurge on a meal. While we do think many portion sizes are fair for what you pay, as a Signature Restaurant, the Brown Derby isn’t cheap. Your family has more of a hamburger, sandwiches, and fries kind of vibe. They DO have a good burger here, but if you’re happy to stroll past the Brown Derby and on to Woody’s Lunch Box, we fully support you. Overall We think there’s something to be said for a restaurant that we visit time and time again and have yet to leave disappointed. It’s not ALWAYS a slam dunk here, but we’ve haven’t regretted our visits. Our last visit was only a month ago and we were still happy to eat that Cobb Salad again (and we would probably do it again next month, too. Or tomorrow. Maybe even tonight!). The atmosphere is eye-catching and immersive, but not in the way you’d typically associate with Disney. The service we received during this visit was attentive and accommodating. The laidback, refined feel of this restaurant will make you forget that not too far away, Stormtroopers are running amuck and Mr. Incredible is strolling down Hollywood Boulevard just outside in the latest character cavalcade. As the only signature restaurant in Hollywood Studios, it stands up to our expectations, and we look forward to returning again in the future! If you’re a fan of contemporary American cuisine or just want a quiet break in your day during a long and hectic Hollywood Studios day, we think this is worth it for you!

It’s another exciting week for construction projects in Disney World as yet ANOTHER project is completed! M&M’s Store We’re taking a look at the many ongoing projects in Disney World right now, AND sharing a firsthand look inside the newly opened M&M’s Store in Disney Springs! Magic Kingdom Rivers of America We’ve been sharing glimpses of Rivers of America all throughout the refurbishment of Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Square Riverboat. The river was drained back in October and remained totally dry as work continued on the track that the riverboat follows. Recently, the river started getting refilled! And it seems that the saga is coming to a close as the river looks totally filled! Rivers of America Even though things are looking pretty status quo around here once again, refurbishments on Tom Sawyer Island and Rivers of America are still expected to continue through February 28th. Rivers of America Filled A totally empty river isn’t something you see every day, so it was pretty interesting to see. However, we’re looking forward to seeing the Liberty Square Riverboat gliding around the river again soon! Here’s EVERYTHING that’s closed for refurb in Disney World this week! Bonjour Village Gifts Last week, we noticed that some exterior work was being done at Bonjour Village Gifts in Fantasyland. Bonjour Village Gifts This week, construction crews continued to work on the building’s roof and siding. Bonjour Village Gifts Construction We’ll continue sharing updates about this little shop as they become available! Check out what’s new in Magic Kingdom! EPCOT Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is an upcoming indoor coaster that will incorporate storytelling elements while riders go on a journey through the galaxy! This week, we noticed wooden paneling being applied around the outside of the building. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind The exterior of this attraction is really shaping up! Take a look INSIDE Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind! Disney’s Animal Kingdom Pandora — The World of Avatar In Pandora, some areas were sectioned off as it appeared that the grounds were preparing for a literal glow-up! The scenery in Pandora is super impressive (have you seen those floating mountains?!) and the bioluminescent glow that appears at night is pretty awe-inspiring. Painting in Pandora Well, the grounds of the Valley of Mo’ara have received a new paint job! New Paint This will allow that bright and colorful glow we’re used to seeing throughout the land at night. Sectioned Area of Pandora You can certainly tell there’s been a touch-up here! Recent Paint We’ll have to visit Pandora at night soon to see the new paint in its prime! See more photos of the new paint here! Disney Springs M&M’s Store The M&M’s Store is officially OPEN!! Earlier in the week, more and more M&M’s made their way to the facade of the building. M&M’s Store Construction Then, on Saturday, the M&M’s Store began welcoming guests! M&M’s Store We visited to get a firsthand look at what the new store has to offer, including a whole WALL of M&M’s and Disney-inspired M&M’s merchandise. We even made our own customized M&M’s! M&M’s Store Opening We’re excited to see another option to do our shopping over at Disney Springs! And we’re not complaining about the candy, either. M&M’s Store Opening We’ll be back to visit for updates during our future trips to Disney Springs! Here’s what’s new at Disney Springs! General Construction Walt Disney World Entrance Sign Last week, we shared a look at the beginning phases of the reimagined makeover of the Walt Disney World Entrance Sign near Osceola Parkway. This week, the progress continues! Walt Disney World Sign A new, blue coat of paint covers half of the archway. Plus, gold accents have been added to the tops of the pillars! Entrance Archway Stay tuned for more progress on this project! Here’s what this sign will look like when it’s finished! It’s always exciting to see projects get completed so we can check out the new experiences they have to offer!

The gates might be closed at Disneyland, but there has still been some MAJOR developments in Downtown Disney and the parks themselves prior to their re-openings. Disneyland Entrance Now that California has lifted the ban on outdoor dining, numerous Downtown Disney restaurants have opened to guests once again. And, those visiting spots like Buena Vista Street and other Downtown Disney locations will be thrilled to know stationary and socially distanced eating and drinking can happen once again. Disneyland itself has started to put plans in place for the parks with the announcement of the “Legacy Passholder” title now that the Annual Passholder program has been discontinued (but we’re waiting on news of any new membership options)! As we wait for any additional news about when the parks would be opening for guests, @jasperdejesus and @anthelion.helicopters have given us a look inside the empty parks while they’re closed! We can’t wait to see Disneyland for ourselves once again when it does open! But, you can keep up with us for all the Disney news you need to know in the meantime!

Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at EPCOT and the EPCOT Resorts! EPCOT And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive right on in! EPCOT Food Update China Pavilion If you’re scoping out a spot to sit down and eat during EPCOT’s lunch rush, look no further! You might spot some twisting lines out front of the Lotus Blossom restaurant… Lotus Blossom Lines …but the seating inside the quick-service location is limited to a few tables. Lotus Blossom Seating Don’t worry, though, friends! Near the restrooms, you’ll be able to find a door leading to additional seating inside the Japan Pavilion’s Nine Dragons Restaurant! Additional Seating Sign The dining room is open with distanced tables so guests can comfortably sit with their party to eat and drink… Nine Dragons Seating …or take a quick snack break away from the hustle and bustle of the park! Nine Dragons Seating It’s important to note that the entrance to the Nine Dragons is still closed off at this time to guests, so you will need to go through the Lotus Blossom Cafe to access the seating indoors. Nine Dragons Seating It was SUPER empty on our visit, so this is a great place to escape EPCOT crowds! Another Restaurant Has Reopened in Disney World…But Not In the Way You Might Think! EPCOT Merchandise Update France Pavilion After that surprising early release of all that Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure merchandise, it wasn’t too much of a shocker that the items disappeared off the shelves just as quickly as they appeared. A whole lot of the merchandise has sold out (it’s a good thing we picked up our own plush Remy), and the only items remaining are the adult striped tees and a few kids’ hoodies. Ratatouille Merchandise On the shelves that were previously filled with Ratatouille merchandise, other French items and Beauty and the Beast toys and costumes have been placed there instead! France Merchandise We’ll let you know if they restock the Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure merchandise! PHOTOS! Check Out Remy’s Adventures Around the World in EPCOT Germany Pavilion We’ve previously seen the green Oktoberfest Shirt, but the Germany Pavilion is switching things up once again with the new blue version of the ladies tee! The top has puffed sleeves and mimics the ruffles and corset of an Oktoberfest dress on the front… Ladies German Shirt …and a vine pattern, Mickey heads, and Germany logo on the back for $36.99. Ladies German Shirt It was a bit random spotting this in January, but hey, we’ll celebrate Oktoberfest year round! See photos of the green Oktoberfest shirt in the Germany pavilion Mouse Gear The Partners Statue might be in the Magic Kingdom, but you can find the Castle Silhouette Tee over in EPCOT’s Mouse Gear! The blue shirt features Mickey and Walt with a simple Cinderella Castle behind them and the Walt Disney World logo for $24.99. Castle Silhouette Shirt Meanwhile, the store is also celebrating graduates with the 2021 Mickey Graduation Ears… 2021 Graduation Ears …that show off the “Class of 2021” logo etched onto the side. 2021 Graduation Ears These ears are $29.99. The NEW Minnie Ears in Disney World Are A Donut-Lover’s Dream! EPCOT Construction Update Harmonious As EPCOT continues construction on all of its upcoming projects, the Harmonious barges have continued to see updates as the progress on the nighttime spectacular moves forward. Harmonious Barge Now that the screens have been installed, it appears as if Disney is testing them to make sure they work with numbered squares appearing on them (although they will display moments from fan-favorite films during the debut of Harmonious). See more photos of the second Harmonious Barge in EPCOT Guardians of the Galaxy We can hardly wait for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind to welcome guests on a trip with their favorite superheroes. Outside of the attraction, the crew has quickly began installing solar panels on the roof and plywood paneling out front. Guardians of the Galaxy Construction They’re moving along at a VERY speedy pace, which has us crossing our fingers we’ll be able to ride the attraction soon! Special Effects for EPCOT’s Guardians of the Galaxy Coaster Are in Development EPCOT Crowd Update Since we were in EPCOT during a weekend, the crowds were busier than we had seen them earlier in the week as families and friends returned to the park. EPCOT Crowds Many of the Festival of the Arts kiosks and booths had longer lines due to this… EPCOT Crowds …while the restaurants, like the Regal Eagle Smokehouse, were also hopping with plenty of visitors. EPCOT Crowds Still, wait times for attractions were fairly low, probably because the big draw right now is the Festival of the Arts! Wait Times in Disney World Significantly DROPPED This Week! Disney’s BoardWalk Inn Merchandise Update Screen Door General Store As we make our way around the parks, we can’t help but need a big cup of coffee and maybe a donut or two to bring with us during our adventures. And, you can take the new BoardWalk Resort Tervis Tumbler around with you filled with your favorite coffee brew for $26.99. The front features the Fab Five on a joy ride aboard a bicycle… BoardWalk Tumbler …with the blue and black stripes and color schemes that can be found through the BoardWalk on the back! BoardWalk Tumbler The Screen Door General Store also was featuring a 30% off sale on Lily Pulitzer, Tommy Bahama, Vineyard Vines, and Kahala brands… BoardWalk Merchandise Sale …that includes dresses, button downs, jackets, and more! BoardWalk Merchandise Sale We’ve seen this sale in other shops that offer these items, too! More photos of the BoardWalk Tervis Tumbler! Disney’s Beach Club Merchandise Update Beach Club Marketplace Over at the Beach Club Marketplace, there were a few accessories you could pair with your new clothes like the Donut Minnie Ears… Donut Minnie Ears …and another way to drink your coffee with the yellow Retro Walt Disney World Mug for $14.99. Retro Disney World Mug We’ve seen the Donut Ears and Mug in other locations in Disney World, but it’s nice to know you can grab these at Disney’s Beach Club Resort as well! NEW Drinkware at Disney World is All About Mickey! Well, that’s all for this What’s New at EPCOT and the EPCOT Resorts! We’ll catch you next time for more updates.

Dogs really are a man’s best friend, and we’re pretty sure Mickey and Pluto would agree with us! Mickey and Pluto at Garden Grill Restaurant Disney knows exactly how much we love our doggos, which is why we now have Disney dog dresses, MagicBands, spirit jerseys, and other pet merchandise!
