Disney Parks Best Bites – August 2016

Two new locations are now open at Disney's BoardWalk. Indulge in a curious cocktail at AbracadaBar, a former magicians' hangout, or check out the elegantly sophisticated new interior and entirely sustainable seafood menu at Flying Fish.

Funnel cakes have returned to Oasis Canteen in Disney's Hollywood Studios! Choose from powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, strawberry topping or vanilla soft-serve ice cream – or go for strawberry topping with vanilla soft-serve and chocolate syrup.

I've got your first look at the brand-new costumes for Minnie's Halloween Dine at Hollywood & Vine at Disney's Hollywood Studios. I think you'll agree the 'Fab 5' look boo-tiful! Reservations are boo-king quickly for this frightfully fun character dining experience, and can be made by visiting DisneyWorld.com/dine.

New flatbreads are now available at Pizzafari at Disney's Animal Kingdom. We love the Mediterranean with red pepper, olives, and a pesto drizzle, topped with a fresh salad of arugula, red onion and tomatoes—or try something new, like the Cheeseburger Flatbread topped with ground beef, tomatoes, lettuce, pickles and a drizzle of ketchup and mustard.

Did you know guests who dine at Tiffins in Disney's Animal Kingdom receive prints of Joe Rhode sketches at the end of their meal? Take a peek at the first sketches in the series of 12 below!

Celebrity Chef Guy Fieri will be firing up an exclusive portion of the Planet Hollywood Observatory menu when it reopens this fall at Disney Springs. "For the Planet Hollywood Observatory, I'm bringing a big time burger and sandwich menu with real deal flavors for everyone." Keep checking the Disney Parks Blog for more details about Planet Hollywood Observatory leading up to opening.

Also at Disney Springs, Blaze Fast-Fire'd Pizza has opened its doors in Town Center. Customize your artisanal pie by choosing from over 40 delicious toppings and sauces – or choose one of their signature pizzas (my favorite is Green Stripe)!

We're less than two weeks away from the 2016 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival! Learn more about the festival, or book tastings and other premium events by visiting epcotfoodfestival.com.

Dude! Be sure to check out the totally tubular Crush Sipper, available at Award Wieners at Disneyland Resort. You can also find him at Magic Kingdom Park, Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park and select Walt Disney World Resort Hotels.
