Greetings from Hurricane Hanna’s along Stormalong Bay! Earlier this week we let you know that Yacht & Beach Clubs’ Hurricane Hanna’s has some new menu items, including a new burger we couldn’t wait to try…so we did! Hurricane Hanna’s Today we were excited to dig into the Shipwreck Angus Bacon Cheeseburger. Hurricane Hanna’s Menu This brand new burger is made of short ground rib and brisket, and topped with fried shrimp, bacon, cheddar cheese, and a Cajun remoulade sauce! It’s served with your choice of Waffle Fries or Apple Slaw. Shipwreck Angus Bacon Cheeseburger Our first impression is that is a well constructed – albeit uniquely- constructed burger. As you can see, the Fried Shrimp are literally atop the sandwich. If you wanted, you could eat those separately. Or, you can do as we did, and stuff them into the burger! So this burger has a lot going on…does it work? It sure does!! The meat itself is very tasty and you can really tell it’s a high quality patty. The friend shrimp add a perfect crunch and flavor, without being overwhelmingly salty. And the bacon…well…how can you go wrong with bacon! Shipwreck Angus Bacon Cheeseburger Cross-Section The best part of this burger, though, might be the Cajun remoulade sauce! It’s definitely got pickles in it, which add a nice zip, even if you aren’t a huge pickle fan. The sauce has just the right amount of kick as well, where it adds flavor and some heat, but it’s not overwhelmingly spicy or hot. Overall, this is a step-up from your average burger. The Cajun remoulade sauce and fried shrimp really make it unique. It is a bit pricey, at almost $15, however with a Disney Dining Plan this is a great bang for your buck choice.

Today’s Disney Doodle features two characters from one of my favorite Disney animated films, the 1973 feature “Robin Hood.” In it, artist Ashley Taylor imagines what Robin and Marian would do first if they had the chance to visit Main Street, U.S.A. at Magic Kingdom Park. Her doodle was inspired by the scene in the film in which Sir Hiss conceals himself inside a balloon in order to spy on Robin at the archery contest. Looks like he’s back at it again!

She’s here and she’s amazing! Kevin has landed in Animal Kingdom and she’s larger than life! Kevin from Up If you are wondering who, and what this giant bird is, she is from the Disney Pixar film Up. The stars of the film, Carl and Russell, befriend Kevin on their adventures in Paradise Falls. And the name, well initially Russell thinks Kevin is a boy, and names her Kevin, and the name stuck! Disney tells us Kevin has migrated North and landed on Discovery Island in Animal Kingdom. She is certainly getting to know her new home as she explores the Island and meets new friends. Kevin from Up Kevin is guided around by two Wilderness Explorers, and you may even see her with Russell and Dug when you are in the park — we were lucky enough to a video of these three friends together. See the video of Kevin meeting Russell and Dug here! Kevin from Up Currently, you can find Kevin on Discovery Island daily from 9:30 – 4:30. Be sure to check the Times Guide to confirm the times she will be visiting the park when you visit Animal Kingdom.

We’ve got some big news to share from the Sunshine State today. Built in collaboration with the Reedy Creek Improvement District and Origis Energy USA, a massive new 270-acre, 50-megawatt solar facility is officially online and providing renewable clean energy to Walt Disney World Resort! This facility is expected to generate enough power from the sun to operate two of our four theme parks in Central Florida annually. It will also significantly reduce net greenhouse gas emissions, joining the numerous efforts The Walt Disney Company has launched to deliver its 2020 goal of reducing emissions by 50% compared to 2012. We will be celebrating this milestone in the coming months and look forward to sharing more details with you real soon. In the meantime, check out this time-lapse video – filmed with a solar-powered camera – to see how the facility has come to life. It has come a long way since our most recent update last fall, when the first of more than half a million panels was installed! This project is certainly a giant leap forward in our emissions efforts, but it’s not the first. You may remember hearing about the 22-acre, 5-megawatt solar facility shaped like Mickey Mouse that opened in 2016. So next time your travels bring you to Walt Disney World Resort, know that your visit may be partly powered by the sun. Be sure to keep reading the Disney Parks Blog and follow the Disney’s Animals, Science and Environment Facebook page for additional updates on the new solar facility and other exciting environmental projects.

You may already know about the Hei Hei Cone coming to Aloha Isle on February 24th. But it appears Hei Hei will have some more Disney-themed cones joining him in Magic Kingdom soon, according to a few menus on the Disney World website. Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies in Tomorrowland will be serving something called the Adventure Is Out There Cone, inspired by the film Up! Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies Menu screenshot And Tangled fans will want to visit Storybook Treats in Fantasyland for the Lost Princess Cone. Storybook Treats Menu screenshot It looks like this one might replace — at least, according to the menu — Tink’s Pixie-Dusted Cone at Storybook Treats. Tink’s Pixie Dusted Cone at Storybook Treats A reminder: the Hei Hei Cone — though it appeared on the Aloha Isle online menu in advance — is actually not scheduled to arrive until February 24th.

When Oga’s Cantina opens along with the rest of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge this summer, it will break precedent by being the first location to serve alcoholic beverages in Disneyland park.

Yes…it’s open! And more than open…it has new menu items! We’re talking about the Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant in Magic Kingdom! Entering Tomorrowland Terrace! This seasonal quick service spot can be found as you walk from Main Street USA to Tomorrowland in Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom. And by seasonal, we mean, like, it’s basically never open. Spring Break means everything’s open, though, and Tomorrowland Terrace usually gets a new menu around this time each year. Don’t forget that you can use Mobile Ordering here, making this an even more convenient location! Ordering kiosks at Tomorrowland Terrace With ALL outdoor (though covered) seating, it’s a nice place to eat during the spring (and possibly early summer if it’s not too hot!). Oh, and there’s a reason Tomorrowland Terrace hosts the Happily Ever After Fireworks Dessert Party: views! You’ll get a great view of the castle and hub from the lower level seating here. Second and lower level seating So when our reporters spotted a new menu here, we couldn’t wait to try it out! New Items at Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant New items on this visit included a Buffalo Chicken Salad, Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps, and an Odwalla® Strawberry Lemonade Slushy. New Tomorrowland Terrace Menu Also on the menu (but not new items) on our visit were an Angus Bacon Cheeseburger, and Dipped Chicken Strips. You can see our review of the Buffalo Chicken Strips here! Tomorrowland Terrace Menu First up, the Buffalo Chicken Salad! This salad is crispy chicken tossed in buffalo sauce, atop a bed of mixed greens with cheddar cheese, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, and drizzled with garlic ranch dressing. Buffalo Chicken Salad This salad was pretty good as far as theme park salads go. The buffalo sauce added some good heat and flavor but wasn’t overwhelmingly hot. In fact, I wish I had asked for extra! The vegetables were crisp and fresh and the dressing was great! I wish I had asked for more that too…. Buffalo Chicken Salad close-up Is it the best salad you’ll ever eat? Probably not, but if you want something a little lighter during your day, this is a great option. Next up, the Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps! Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps These are lettuce wraps topped with Hoisin Chicken and Crispy Rice Noodles. Now these were a delight! The chicken was tossed in a perfectly sweet sauce, and the crispy rice noodles added an awesome crunch. The lettuce leaves were fresh, and held up to the filling well. Truthfully, the only bad thing about these is the container. It keeps them stood up nicely, but it’s hard to get them out without losing some of the chicken mixture. Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps Close-up These were honestly such a great surprise and my new choice for a healthier meal in Magic Kingdom! Especially because they don’t taste healthy. Isn’t that the best? Now those of you eating keto in Disney World, these are in the camp of “decent choice but still has a sweet sauce.” Click here to see our recommendations for eating keto in Disney World! Last but not least, the Strawberry Lemonade Slushy! We’ve had this one in other locations, but were were happy to spot it here. It’s one of our OG favorite slushies. Strawberry Lemonade Slushy This slush has a strong, saturated strawberry and lemon flavor — almost like it’s concentrated. If you love sweet-tart things (probably more tart than sweet, with that intense flavor), you’ll enjoy this. Watch out for ice cream headaches, though! Strawberry Lemonade Slushy The Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant was a pleasant surprise with all three items we tried today! It’s also good to note that because they did vary the menu, that’s a good sign that Tomorrowland Terrace will be open more frequently through the Spring Break season.

Disneyland has seriously been killin’ it with all those amazing Get Your Ears On Celebration treats! We’ve already reviewed the awesome Fried Chicken and Beignets at Orleans Cafe in Disneyland and the yummy Mickey’s Chocolate Cup and Brownie at Fiddler, Fife, & Practical Cafe in Disney California Adventure Park – you can check out all the limited edition eats here. But today we got to try the FINAL snack to be released in the Get Your Ears On Celebration and we got the FIRST SLICE EVER — I present to you…the Celebration Cake! Celebration Cake at Plaza Inn We showed up at Disneyland’s Plaza Inn today anxiously awaiting the release of this limited edition treat only to be told it wasn’t going to be released until Friday…wait…WHAT?! After confirming today’s release date via the Disney Parks Blog with both the Chef and Manager, the Chef graciously went to cut us the VERY FIRST PIECE of the Celebration Cake — Thank you Chef!! Celebration Cake at Plaza Inn Now this is one good lookin’ cake! This dessert seriously brings the party with Mickey’s signature red and yellow, some party polka dots, expertly piped frosting streamers, celebratory confetti sprinkles and of course a Mickey shaped chocolate piece to top it all off. Celebration Cake at Plaza Inn We found the cake itself to be dense and moist with your typical vanilla cake flavor. The filling between each layer of the red and yellow cake was awesome! Despite being described as having a “raspberry and lemon filling,” I would have been convinced if someone described it as a lemon ONLY filling. Perhaps there was a small hint of raspberry, but only slightly. The filling was THICK and flavorful. The moisture of the cake and the thick filling together made for a great quality slice of cake! Celebration Cake at Plaza Inn Like most decorative chocolate pieces, the Mickey topper and polka dots are much nicer to look at than to eat. Want to join in the celebration? You can grab your own Celebration Cake at Disneyland’s Plaza Inn for $5.99. Be sure to get there soon — Get Your Ears On Celebration Treats are only available for a limited time!
