Dinner at Boma at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge

 

Several years ago my sister and I did a culinary tour at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge. 
One of the restaurants we toured was Boma. This was our first experience with this African buffet. One of the items we taste tested during the culinary tour was the Butternut Squash soup. It was so tasty that we said we needed to get back here for dinner.  
Well, years went by, but we finally made it back for dinner.

Our Favorite Dishes have Returned to This Year's Flower and Garden Festival at EPCOT

 Every year that we return to Disney's Flower and Garden Festival at EPCOT, we find a new favorite dish. Sometimes that dish makes a comeback the following year, and sometimes it is replaced for something else. 


In addition to two new booths ( check the end of this post for more info), we were excited to see over a dozen of our favorite dishes making a comeback at this year's festival! Maybe one of your favorites is on the list too!

Let's check them out!

Our last dinner on the Disney Wish was in the Arendelle Dinning Room.  We thought this dinning room had the best theming. Even the entrance was something to take notice to. Let's check it out.

World of Marvel on the Disney Wish

 

Our second dining rotation on the Disney Wish was the  World of Marvel dining room. I will admit I am not a Marvel fan and I was least excited about this dining rotation. Let's check it out.

5 things opening at Disney World THIS year!


    

Over the past few months Disney has announced a plethora of changes coming to Walt Disney World parks and resorts.

There are some smaller changes or additions to the parks that you may end up noticing as early as THIS year!  Let's check them out.

A Perfect Day at Disney's Hollywood Studios

Hollywood Studios has never been a full day park for us. I think that's because I don't like thrill rides so that means we don't spend time waiting in the long lines for Tower of Terror and the roller coasters. We recently visited Hollywood Studios for a half day and here is how we made the most of our time here.

Happy February! This month's Disney Food Feature is the Minnie Milkshake. The Minnie Milkshake first came on the scene in February 2023 for a Valentine's day treat, but has now ( as of the publishing of this blog post) become a regular on the menu. 

Coffee Talk- January

 

 

                                             Happy 2025, a few weeks late! 
We usually write a year end recap on the blog, but we didn't get a chance to do that at the end of December. Grab yourself a cup of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate and lets chat now.

Narcoosse's is the octagon shaped restaurant that overlooks the Seven Seas Lagoon at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort. It is mostly known for its seafood, but there is much more on the menu!

See these things on Tom Sawyer Island before it's gone!

 


2025 is to bring many changes ( or at least the start of them) to Disney World! One such change is in Magic Kingdom and includes an expansion to Frontierland. Of course this expansion comes at a cost ( or several).  In order to make room for a new land, we will have to say good bye to Tom Sawyer Island and the Rivers of America.
