Hang on tight, foodies!
Disney World has just released its brand new foodie guide, just for you, especially if you’ll be celebrating the 50th anniversary of the opening of Walt Disney World!
You’ll find foods of all kinds, including sweets and treats across all four theme parks at Walt Disney World–each one more exciting and more colorful than the one before! In fact, Disney’s talented chefs and mixologists have “cooked up” more than 150 new drinks and eats for the celebration!
And these 150 new foodie treasures are just the beginning, with more coming to the parks over the next 18 months! Wow! What a celebration!
Some of Walt Disney’s personal recipes have been included in the celebration, and some of the inspiration for the new items has come from current and previous attractions at Walt Disney World, as well as dishes from 50 years ago that were in the parks in the very beginning.
What did Walt like to eat? Well, we’re told he was pretty easy to please when it came to his dinner plate–like a lot of men, Walt was a “meat and potatoes” kind of guy.
He loved things like roast lamb, chili, fried chicken and roast beef hash. He also loved lemon, apple bread pudding and chocolate varieties of sweets and desserts. Chefs at Disney who had a part in creating bites for the anniversary celebration took a lot of their inspiration from Walt’s recipes, yielding Guests an amazing assortment of Walt’s favorite dishes with a reimagined twist to them!
We’re loving the celebratory EARidescent Sip-a-Bration, infused with shimmery hints of EARidescent magical colors!
Wow! Only at Disney could you drink a celebration!
