Hi all! My groups of friends and I love going to any and all things involving food, so we are thrilled about once again attending the upcoming Flower & Garden Festival. This year, we have one person coming with us who has an allergy to cilantro and will break out in hives if she eats it. It's...

The last two years WDW held a special after-hours "Villains Unleashed" party in Hollywood Studios in mid August. The first was in 2013 and was on Friday the 13th and it was free to see the 13 villains they brought in for the event. Last year on Aug. 23, 2014, they made the event larger to...

The ghost pepper tilapia was amazing last year! It definitely has a zing to it and a great flavor. Also, my very top two items at the festival that have returned this year are both at the Florida Fresh booth -- the first is the watermelon salad with pickled onions, baby arugula, feta cheese and...

Now that the menus have been released for the upcoming Epcot Flower & Garden festival, I am so sad to learn that my favorite item from 2014 will not be returning! I've looked around online to see if I could find a recipe posted for it but I haven't had any luck. So I thought I would check here...

If you go to the WDW main site (https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/) and select "Things to Do" from the top menu and then "All Dining" from the drop down, it brings you to the main dining page. If you then filter by "Dining Experience" and select "Lounges" it shows you all of the lounges within...

This thread is making me tear up! Thank you all for sharing, and thank you to the OP for starting the conversation. It's really touching to read so many sweet stories, and it's given me good ideas for the future! :)

I agree with all of the above. Between the 4 resorts right in that area, there are so many different restaurants to pick from. There are the signature restaurants, which are wonderful, but there are also some good options that aren't quite so pricey (still not necessarily cheap, but not as...

Also, look for news on here and the Disney Parks Blog and other popular disney blogs. There is always some new food item or seasonal event or cool new thing taking place. Disney is like its own little city - there's always something new to check out!

Congratulations on getting the new passes! It's certainly a different experience once you have them. If it is something that you're concerned about, try to do new something new each time you go to keep things fresh. See a new show, try a new restaurant, tour a new resort. Hop on the ferry from...

I live an hour away from the WDW and have been an AP now for 3 years. I don't think it has ruined the magic for us at all. Instead, it's given us the chance to be more leisurely about the way we explore the parks. Instead of having to cram everything into a designated time period, we're able...

August will be unbelievably hot and humid. Even at night it will be hot and humid. It's one of the worst Florida months. It will also most likely thunderstorm each afternoon for an hour or so. Make sure to bring ponchos (or buy some in the park, but they're a little pricey). That rainy hour is a...

For MK, I agree on Columbia Harbor House. However, whenever I'm with groups of friends I for some reason have a hard time getting everyone to agree to go there - probably because of the heavy seafood focus on the menu. If she runs into that problem and needs something easier to just grab and...

I have actually come to prefer going alone! When I go with my usual companions it is always a compromise between what we want to do and where we want to go. When I go alone, I can go at my own pace and I can do all of the nerdy things I love that no one else appreciates! I have actually been...

Even though the food booths won't be open, you should definitely still snack around the world! There are so many awesome food options at Epcot and the park will look wonderful with all of the gardens and flowers being put into place. Hope you have a great time!

My favorite thing about WL is all of the little seating areas in the lobby and up on the different floors. Take a book and a cup of coffee and just curl up in a little hiding spot by a fireplace or looking out over the lobby. Also, I love the feel of the Territory Lounge. Great place to grab...

Yes it is! Here's a link to it: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/resorts/boardwalk-inn/

My top favorites are the Polynesian, Grand Floridian, and Wilderness Lodge (all in the Magic Kingdom area). The first two are right on the monorail, which makes them super easy to visit. And I love that you can take a little ferry boat ride to get from Wilderness Lodge to Magic Kingdom, or...

On my first day we usually get unpacked and then go visit some of the other resorts. I love seeing all of the details and styles and differences between them all. We'll grab a bite to eat at one of the resorts, and then usually head to Magic Kingdom for a leisurely evening. We don't even...

I think I'm in the minority, but if I were solo I would do the split stay. Especially if this is a relaxing trip before you start a new job. Wilderness Lodge is just so peaceful to me. If I had the time to myself, I would thoroughly enjoy the better food options at WL and being able to sit in...

My favorites, in no specific order: Chefs de France (in Epcot), La Hacienda (in Epcot), Grand Floridian Cafe, and Whispering Canyon (in Wilderness Lodge). If I can add one more it would be Rose and Crown (also in Epcot)!
