Vivoli Gelato – Hidden Gem at Disney Springs

Posted on by AllEars
Silvana Vivoli, the granddaughter of Raphael Vivoli, one of the company's founders, was recently at the Vivoli Gelato to introduce four new fall flavors: Tiramisu, Apple Pie, Pecan, and Pumpkin. It was clear at the start that Silvana Vivoli is quite passionate about her family business. She stressed to us how important it has been to remain dedicated to creating pure gelati and sorbetti with fresh, high quality ingredients and family crafted recipes. There is nothing artificial! The store uses local and seasonal products, with cocoa powder, hazelnut and pistachio imported from Italy.

Disney Springs Offers New Holiday Experience

Posted on by AllEars
The Disney Parks Blog this week teased about a new holiday experience coming to Disney Springs. We don't have any details yet, but you can see a very short video that drops a few hints HERE. In addition to the previously announced Christmas Tree Trail, Disney Springs will offer the following for the holidays: -- At the Marketplace, the Festival of Toys, a nightly interactive holiday dance party, will be featured at the Once Upon a Toy Fountain. There will also be pin trading and a nightly tree-lighting ceremony at 6 p.m. in that neighborhood of Disney Springs. -- Santa's Chalet will return, and Disney PhotoPass photographers will be on hand. You can pick up a pager upon arrival, allowing you to shop, dine or play while you wait for your turn in the queue to visit Santa. -- Stitch's Holiday Gift Hunt, a scavenger hunt-style activity for the whole family, is set to start on the day after Thanksgiving. The hunt will send you through all four neighborhoods of Disney Springs. Once complete, you can visit participating locations for a limited-edition completer button. Most holiday festivities will continue at Disney Springs through January 8, 2017.

STK Orlando at Disney Springs introduces fall menu

Posted on by AllEars
With the temperatures in Orlando finally dipping to the point that we're not uncomfortable the minute we step outside, it's beginning to feel a lot like fall -- or as much of a fall season as we can expect in the Sunshine State. And while that means locals might break out the long sleeves and boots this weekend, for those in the culinary field, it signals the opportunity to change up their menus.

A one-month, limited-time offering debuted on October 1 at the World of Disney at Disney Springs Marketplace. "A Princess Royal Reception" takes place at the store intermittently between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. each day featuring a visiting Disney princess -- Cinderella, Snow White, Aurora, Tiana or another. There are no set times for specific characters. A Disney PhotoPass photographer is on hand to capture each interaction, and the photos are available for guests to purchase or download as part of their Memory Maker product purchase.
