Disney World is know for its amusement parks but did you know that you can find some of the best food there? Disney dining offers something for everyone, even sushi lovers.

Listed below are the four options we considered for our Disney sushi date night. While this list is not exhaustive of all the delicious [...]

Tokyo Dining

It's no secret my favorite park to visit is Epcot and one of my favorite things to do at Epcot is... eat! Where else can you go from country to country sampling cuisine from around the World? You pretty much can't go wrong with any of the restaurants at Epcot and it's nice to have so many to choose from which makes it easier to land a reservation. My family had dined at Teppan Edo several times and we really enjoyed it but I wanted to try something different so I decided to go with Tokyo Dining. Tokyo Dining and [...]

Starbucks at Epcot

travelmagicstg2013-12-02T07:00:00-05:00December 2, 2013|Dining, Disney World, Epcot|0 Comments

During our recent fall trip to Epcot we visited the new Starbucks that recently opened in September 2013. Starbucks replaced the former Fountain View Cafe and reopened as Fountain View Starbucks. This location offers a wide variety of treats and drinks. You are able to use a Starbucks card at this location. The only thing lacking at this location is seating. There are no tables or chairs inside the location. The outside patio does not offer seating either. However, down the stairs there is a bench. The location is great. It is right in front of the fountain by Future [...]

If you have a Princess fan in your family, don’t miss the Princess Storybook Breakfast at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall in the Norway Pavilion at Epcot. We were so excited to start our first full day at Disney World with this breakfast. Our reservations were at 8:30 am. Epcot opens at 9 am (and World Showcase doesn’t open until 11 am). If your breakfast reservation is before the park opens, there is a dedicated turnstile for you to enter through. We headed through an empty Future Showcase to World Showcase. There was a good crowd already gathered outside the [...]

Top Five Disney Resort Restaurants

Top Five Disney Resort Restaurants One thing that I find is overlooked in Disney is some of the amazing dining located right at your Disney resort! There came a point where I had dined at most restaurants in the Disney parks and a handful in Downtown Disney and wanted something more. We stumbled upon a couple by mistake, and searched out others the more we explored new resorts. Here is sneak peek at five of my favorites! I have many more, and I am sure I will be adding the newly re-mastered California Grill when I visit in November, [...]

Dinner at Disney’s California Grill

travelmagicstg2013-10-16T07:00:00-04:00October 16, 2013|Dining, Disney World|0 Comments

I recently had the opportunity to dine at the newly refurbished California Grill located at Disney's Contemporary Resort. I had been looking forward to dining at California Grill but was unable to get a reservation after some plans unexpectedly changed and I needed to cancel my original reservation. The restaurant was closed for an extended time, completely refurbished and now it has reopened and everyone's wanting to check it out. I decided to attempt to walk up early and see if I could get a seat at the bar. Expecting to be turned away, I was pleasantly surprised when I [...]
