PHOTOS: First Look at the NEW Trader Sam Scene in Disney World’s Jungle Cruise

Disney World is undergoing quite a few changes!

Jungle Cruise

One of those is the reimagining of the Jungle Cruise — and we’ve been keeping a close eye on this project! The work is expected to wrap up this summer, but the ride is OPEN in the meantime. That means we’re constantly hoppin’ aboard to see what’s new.

We’ve already told ya that the famous Trader Sam scene has been removed from the ride — and that Disney announced a replacement. And now, we’ve got a first look at what this new scene looks like in person!

There it is!

That new scene is Trader Sam’s gift shop (which he repurposed from the river’s Lost and Found station, of course!). As of now, we can only see the building itself, as the interior remains covered.

Here’s a closer look!

Here’s what it’ll look like when it’s complete!

Yesterday, Disney shared a peek at the gift shop being installed in Disneyland. Looks like progress is takin’ place on both coasts! We’ll keep an eye on the changes and be sure to keep ya posted, so stay tuned to DFB.

Watch These 7 DFB Videos BEFORE Making Disney World Restaurant Reservations!

There is a LOT to consider when deciding which restaurants to eat at in Disney World! Dining needs look different for everyone, and some restaurants are going to cater to your needs better than others.

Cinderella’s Royal Table

We have done extensive research on Disney World restaurants — seriously, just take one look through our restaurant search. We are constantly reviewing and revisiting to make sure we have the most up-to-date information on every restaurant! We’ve got 7 videos you’ll want to watch before making your reservations.

We know all of the ins and outs of table service restaurants! These 7 videos will bring you up to speed so you know what to expect and what you might like. Whether you want to dine with characters or you consider yourself a picky eater, we’ll help you find restaurants that work for you.

1. What We’ve Learned from Eating at EVERY Restaurant

That’s right, we have not skipped a single restaurant! This video has some general tips and info.

This overview is great for learning about some of our favorite spots, where to find rare characters, dessert details, fine dining, and more. This is just a taste of the detail we go into for each restaurant, but this is a great video to pick out a few places that grab your attention to find out more!

2. Top Restaurants for 2021

Now that you’ve gotten a glimpse at some of our dining tips, here are our top restaurant picks for 2021!

This video is great if you are unfamiliar with the insane number of Disney World restaurants and need to narrow it down to the tried and true! Even though Space 220 still isn’t open, we’ve got all the details and have high hopes (for good reasons). Going through the restaurants park by park will help you plan your day more easily.

3. If You Can Only Eat at ONE Restaurant, This Is It!

Maybe you don’t particularly love eating at restaurants, or you only have the budget to pick out one restaurant. Even if that’s not the case, you’re going to want to put a decent amount of thought into your restaurant choices.

Table service is expensive, so it’s important to pick somewhere that you’re going to really like! This video will help you narrow your choices down based on what you’re looking for in a dining experience.

4. The Best Things to Eat in 2021

If you care less about characters or theming and more about the food itself, we’ve got 13 of the best foods and where to get them!

If any of these foods grab your attention, you might want to consider choosing a restaurant just for that! It’s totally okay to pick a restaurant just for one specific item that you really want.

5. Restaurants Practically EVERYONE Loves (and Hates)

These restaurants have been vetted by viewers. Since so many people love these, you can’t go wrong! Of course, everyone has different tastes, budgets, and needs, so hear us out to see if these are for you!

There is a general consensus on these, which must mean something! Keep in mind that experiences vary, so you may disagree with what other readers have said!

6. Best and Worst Restaurants According to Cast Members

It’s not surprising that Disney World Cast Members spend a lot of time at the parks! It makes sense that they would have plenty of opinions about the restaurants.

Cast Members might pick up on some details that others wouldn’t. On top of that, their favorites have to be pretty good for them to keep coming back! These are some great suggestions for restaurants to try (or avoid)!

7. Restaurants You’re Worried About

Because table service is so expensive, it’s hard to know if it’s worth it. We addressed the worthiness of 26 restaurants that viewers are the most concerned about!

A lot of this is going to come down to your budget and what’s most important to you when you’re dining in Disney World. Anything from characters, atmosphere, and how upscale a restaurant is can impact how “worth it” it is for you.

Table service can be overwhelming! These 7 videos will help guide you so that you’re sufficiently prepared to make your advance dining reservation 60 days before your arrival. We know it can be stressful, but thinking about food can also be fun!

Review: Buffalo Chicken Egg Rolls?! Here’s Where to Find ‘Em in Disney World

We’re in the mood for some munchin’!

Disney Springs

And lucky for us, we’re stopping by Morimoto Asia Street Food in Disney Springs, which serves up some of our favorite quick bites. We recently tried their Saimin Ramen and it was so good — so we’re back to see what they’ve got for grabs now!

Sure enough, there’s a NEW special: a Buffalo Chicken Egg Roll! So you KNOW we had to grab it and get tastin’.

Buffalo Chicken Egg Roll

As usual, Morimoto did not disappoint. We could’ve gone for a dozen more of these! The egg roll was super creamy with a nice and crispy shell — aka SO delicious.

Buffalo Chicken Egg Roll

You can definitely taste that buffalo sauce, but it isn’t too hot. The chicken itself comes in good quality chunks, and there’s plenty of it. We’re BIG fans!

You’ve gotta try this!

If you’re craving some tasty eats, we highly recommend heading over to Morimoto Asia Street Food. But hurry — this special may not stick around long! In the meantime, stay tuned to DFB for more Disney news and reviews.
