NEWS: Planet Hollywood Has Opened Yet Again in Disney World

While Planet Hollywood was one of the first restaurants in Disney Springs to announce they’d be reopening on May 2oth, we were surprised to find the restaurant unexpectedly closed down last week!

Planet Hollywood

But while walking off our Birthday Cake Shake from the newly reopened Vivoli il Gelato in Disney Springs today, we found out Planet Hollywood is open once AGAIN!

Planet Hollywood reopened at 4PM today without any visible reason why the restaurant had mysteriously closed its doors.

The Disney Springs’ website was a little glitchy and still showing the restaurant as being closed, but we can assure ya it’s now open.

Swing by Planet Hollywood from 4PM to 9PM on weekdays or 11:30AM to 9PM on Saturday and Sundays for a B-A-N-A-N-A-S Boozy Milkshake once more!

Did you think it was strange that Planet Hollywood closed down after its initial reopening? Let us know what you thought in the comments below!

Review! This NEW Shake in Disney World Has An Entire Cupcake on Top!

Just moments ago, we told you Vivoli il Gelato had finally reopened in Disney Springs!

Birthday Cake Shake

And now we’re back to share all the delicious deets regarding a certain special menu item — the Birthday Cake Shake!

While originally Vivoli il Gelato had hoped to open its doors on May 22nd, we stopped by that day to see the shop was still closed. An employee told us they were aiming to reopen by June 1oth which is Vivoli il Gelato’s 5-year anniversary! We were SUPER excited to see them up and running today — and to celebrate, we’re diving into their Birthday Cake Shake!

Birthday Cake Shake

Oh hello, gorgeous! Where have you been hiding all of our lives?! This “birthday present in a cup” features cake batter gelato blended with milk and it’s topped with a cupcake, whipped cream, and rainbow confetti sprinkles!

Words don’t do the insanity of the Birthday Cake Shake justice, but we’ll try our best to explain what’s going on with this thing! First of all, the gelato tastes just like how you would expect it to taste! Hey, we’re just as guilty of licking the bowl while baking a cake as you guys are! The gelato tastes just like yummy cake batter!

But that’s just one layer of the madness that is happening here! Don’t forget this puppy comes with its own cupcake topper which is super moist and delicious too!

For $14, the Birthday Cake Shake is more of a meal than a snack, but cake lovers won’t want to miss out on this amazing treat. We’ll be stopping by Vivoli il Gelato to see if they have any special items for their 5-year anniversary at Disney Springs since we were told there might be a new shake, bombolato, and peanut butter cannoli in the works, so stay tuned!

Surprise! Vivoli il Gelato Is Now Open in Disney World!

While Vivoli il Gelato was originally supposed to reopen on May 22nd, the spot ran into some issues and it has remained closed this whole time!

Vivoli il Gelato

That is — UNTIL TODAY! Vivoli il Gelato is now open! Let’s take a peek inside!

Just like the rest of the shops and dining spots we’ve been visiting, Vivoli il Gelato has implemented several new safety guidelines. We noticed social distancing markers have been placed on the ground…

Social Distancing Markers

…while plexiglass shields have been installed at the counters including around the cash register. A sign states Vivoli il Gelato is encouraging guests to use contactless payment methods.

We found out Vivoli il Gelato is still giving out samples of its delicious gelato flavors, but has limited them to two per guest. We’ll be back in just a little bit with a review of their Birthday Cake Shake, so sit tight while we guzzle it down!

One of Our Favorite Menu Items Is BACK at Morimoto Asia Street Food in Disney Springs!

We’ve been back to Morimoto Asia Street Food a few times since the quick service restaurant reopened in Disney Springs!

Morimoto Asia Street Food

Morimoto Asia Street Food has been operating with a limited menu since reopening, meaning many of our favorite eats have been unavailable.

While we’ve happily been feasting on their BBQ Pork Bao Buns, Egg Rolls, and Rice Bowls, we’ve had a real hankering for Morimoto Baby Ribs! But all of that changed today when we noticed the restaurant had updated its list of offerings…and those ribs are BACK, baby!!!

Updated Temporary Menu

And don’t forget — if you’re a Disney Cast Member, you can get 20% off your bill at Morimoto Asia, the Iron Chef’s table service restaurant. The offer is good until June 30th, so hurry on down to Disney Springs before time is up!

Check out what else just pulled into Disney Springs here!

Disney World Says Services For Guests With Disabilities Will Resume When The Parks Reopen

We know a lot of you guys have TONS of questions about Disney World now that the theme parks are officially set to reopen on July 11th and July 15th!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

And while there have been a bunch of updates regarding Disney’s Magical Express as well as a character meal that’s expected to resume and many hotel services that are being tweaked, we just learned some info regarding Disney World’s services for guests with disabilities.

Disney World has confirmed Disability Access Service (DAS) will operate the same as they did prior to the theme parks’ temporary closure. Upon reopening, guests with disabilities will be able to ride Disney World’s attractions through the same process as they could before the closures.

Disney World

Guests with disabilities will need to go to Guest Relations to obtain the Disability Access Service pass on their MagicBand (or likely a physical pass if they’re not using MagicBands) that will be valid the length of their stay. They’ll be able to go to an attraction and receive a return time, same as pre-closure. Once it’s time to ride, guests will be directed to an alternative entrance for boarding.

Tamu Tamu Refreshments at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

For more information, guests can contact Disney World’s Disability Services at (407) 560-2547 or email them at disability.services@disneyparks.com.
