Cookie Dough and Everything Sweet Food Truck Is Set to Reopen in Disney Springs Today!

A couple of days ago, we noticed the Disney Springs’ food trucks had rolled back into town!

But with the exception of 4 Rivers Cantina Barbacoa Food Truck, all these mini-restaurants (on wheels!) have remained closed in Disney Springs — until TODAY!

We spoke with a Cast Member today who shared that Cookie Dough and Everything Sweet is set to open at 5PM this evening!

These Nachos Are Topped With An EPIC Surprise in Disney World!

We are BACK at Ghirardelli Soda Fountain & Chocolate Shop in Disney Springs… because ice cream is always a good idea! Don’t you agree?

Ghirardelli Soda Fountain & Chocolate Shop

On our recent visit upon Ghirardelli’s reopening, we enjoyed the new version of an old favorite concoction: the Gold Rush Sundae. And today we were happy to find a NEW item — joined by some returning favorites — just added to the menu!

When Ghirardelli first reopened its doors at the end of May, it returned with a fairly limited menu. So it was a happy surprise today when we spotted the return of a few more Specialty Sundaes like Lands End, the Magical Sundae, and one of our very favorites — the Crissy Field Cookie Bits Sundae back on the list!

Do you remember that one?!

Create Your Own Quake Shake has also returned along with the Nob Hill Chill and the new Ultimate Latte Chill (which serves up a vanilla bean base and caramel with the coffee).

We were tempted today by the new Nacho Sundae, which comes in at $14.50.

The Nacho Sundae is served up with three scoops of your choice of ice cream on top of Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips, all covered with whipped cream and a sprinkling of nuts.

And what’s any Sundae — even a non-traditional Nacho Sundae — without a cherry on top?!

We went with Vanilla, Strawberry, and Mint Chocolate Chip for our flavors… and, let me tell you, they did NOT skimp on those scoops!

The chips, by the way, are super tasty along with providing some nice crunch to the sundae. They totally reminded us of a slightly crunchier version of Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal!

(Of course, while you can use them to scoop up the ice cream, you’re going to want to grab a spoon for this one!)

And they’ve done it again! Just when you think Ghirardelli couldn’t possibly come up with any more spectacular specialty sundaes… they DO! Ghirardelli is located in the Disney Springs Marketplace — where, by the way, you’ll also find Marketplace Snacks which is still serving up the fabulous Dole Whip Nachos.

So now you’ve got not one — but TWO! — insane Dessert Nachos to choose from. Which one will it be for you  ?

Will you be ordering up a Nacho Sundae? Please let us know with a comment!

Raglan Road Reopened in Disney Springs Today to a Bit of a CROWD!

Ever since Walt Disney World’s shopping district, Disney Springs, reopened on May 20th, more and more restaurants and retailers have been coming back.

Raglan Road Reopened in Disney Springs Today to a Bit of a CROWD!

Disney Springs

And today TONS of spots reopened, including DisneyStyle, City Works Eatery & Pour House, and The Ganachery. But that’s not all!

Raglan Road is back! The Irish pub and restaurant planned to reopen on June 10th, and open on June 10th they did! And you KNOW we were on the scene to check it out.

People were pretty pumped to see Raglan Road reopening, and there was a line outside the restaurant.

Like other spots around Disney Springs, Raglan Road had a sign out front outlining its health and safety measures, including keeping 6 feet away from others, increased sanitization, and safe screens in front of staff.

We were seated outside at the restaurant, where we noticed a contactless QR code menu, but if you don’t have a smartphone, don’t worry — Raglan Road is also offering paper menus upon request.

Upon its reopening, Raglan Road is offering a condensed menu, but items like the Shepherd’s to Die for Pie, Fish & Chips, and the Braised Be Beef are still available.

To get a little taste of Raglan Road again, we sat down and ordered an appetizer. But before our order came out, our server gave us some complimentary Irish soda bread with a Guinness and sugar reduction with olive oil for dipping.

As for the food we ordered, we opted for the Nom Nom Wings, which come smothered in an Asian-inspired sauce with honey, chili flakes, soy sauce, and ginger sauce. We found these $15.00 wings a tad salty for our tastebuds, but when paired with an ice-cold pint, they could be pretty satisfying.

When we got our check, we were brought a contactless card reader, where we could tap or swipe our card.

Beyond the restaurant’s indoor and outdoor dining areas, Raglan’s Road retail store reopened today so you can stock up on Guinness T-shirts and other Irish pub-inspired goods.

In the store, we noticed social distancing markers on the floor, plexiglass in front of cashiers, and a sign asking guests to touch as few items as possible.

And because you KNOW Disney Springs LOVES its outdoor bars, Raglan Road’s own outdoor to-go bar was setting up, ready to pour pints and glasses of wine.

Slowly but surely, more spots are opening back up at Disney Springs, making this shopping district feel a bit more like its old self again! Seeing Raglan Road reopened and buzzing gets us even MORE excited for when Walt Disney World theme parks reopen in mid-July!
