The latest update in the ongoing construction project at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort includes another fresh step on some old carpet. Walking up the first set of stairs in the Grand Ceremonial House to check carpeting progress at our favorite noodle restaurant, ‘Ohana, we noticed the separation of old and new carpeting styles here on the stairwell.

We’ve gotten a reputation for loving all thing donuts ’round here, so it only makes sense that we want to share the news of a BIG discount for Walt Disney World cast members! Cast members with a sweet tooth in the evening are in luck; Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew has a deal for you!

Cast members who visit Everglazed during the last 30 minutes of each operating day are offered a 50% discount on donuts. Keep in mind that cast members need to choose from the donut varieties that are left at that point; what you see is what you get.

During other times of day, both cast members and Walt Disney World annual passholders are offered a 10% discount. Be sure to bring your cast member ID or annual pass when you stop by.

Everglazed Donuts and Cold Brew can be found in the alley between AMC Disney Springs 24 Dine-In Theatre and Splitsville in Disney Springs‘ West Side.

If you’d like a peek at Craig and me trying some of Everglazed’s offerings on the shop’s opening day, tune in below:

A ton of things have been reopening in Disney World lately!

Let’s Go to Disney World!

We’ve seen the reopening of pre-shows, single rider lines, and the dining room at La Cava del Tequila! We also found out that Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge will reopen on August 26th, which hopefully means the return of restaurants like Boma and Jiko as well! But for now, we just found where an EXCLUSIVE Jiko drink is hiding while the restaurant remains closed!

This is Jiko’s Bain’s Barrel-Aged African Whiskey!

Bain’s Barrel-Aged African Whiskey

The house barrel-aged whiskey used to only be available at Jiko, but since they’re not open right now, you can currently find it at Sanaa!

Sanaa

The drink will cost you $18 because it’s rung up as an Old Fashioned, then there’s a slight upcharge for the Bain’s.

Is this making you thirsty?

But it’s absolutely delicious!

A great afternoon cocktail!

We suggest having the drink with Sanaa’s famous bread service.

A perfect pairing!

So, if you love whiskey or have been missing the exclusive liquor at Jiko, head on over to Sanaa and grab a glass! You will need to ask since it’s not currently on the menu. You can also order an African Manhattan. We’ll keep you updated if we find out when Jiko will reopen, and we’ll be there to give you a review as soon as it does! Stay tuned to DFB for all the Disney news and updates.
