I’m actually trying to STAY on west coast time until after the Tower of Terror 13K race Saturday night – my body will be much happier (ok, so “happier” isn’t really the right … Continue reading "WDW Food and Wine Festival Week – Day 2"

Disneyland Dining: The French Market

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
The French Market is a buffeteria-style eatery on the edge of New Orleans Square. Disney introduced a new menu over the summer, and we hadn’t been there to try it yet, so that’s where we went for dinner before attending the Mickey’s Trick or Treat party later that evening.

Ghirardelli – Downtown Disney Marketplace

Posted on by Jack Spence
I used to live in San Francisco. My apartment was within easy walking distance of Ghirardelli Square. Occasionally I would take the cable car home from work and stop by Ghirardelli for an ice cream cone before heading home. Or walk over on a foggy Sunday morning for a steaming cup of hot chocolate. I … Continue reading "Ghirardelli – Downtown Disney Marketplace"

Vegan Dining at Walt Disney World

Posted on by AllEars
The Bashful Vegan Hi! My name is Kitty, and I’m a vegan. I’m also terribly, seriously, majorly bashful which is not very convenient when you’re a vegan. It’s near impossible to eat out as a vegan without attracting some attention, or at the very least, getting a confused look from a server. All of which … Continue reading "Vegan Dining at Walt Disney World"

Tusker House: Thumbs Up

Posted on by Mike Scopa
Just thought I’d let everyone know that tusker House is AWESOME. This eatery recently switched from a quick-service location to a sit-down restaurant and offers a buffet for guests. In its quick-service days Tusker House was very good and now it’s even better. If you love the food at Boma’s at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge … Continue reading "Tusker House: Thumbs Up"
