Disney4me Posted December 22, 2024 Report Share Posted December 22, 2024 So it’s been a bit of a quiet week — at least when it comes to food — in Disney World. Ice cream in EPCOT But that’s okay because we’ve been busy exploring Disney’s newest hotel expansion, Island Tower at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. One of the BEST parts of exploring this new property, though, was getting a chance to eat at Wailulu Bar & Grill, the tower’s quick-service restaurant — let’s just say we were impressed (you can read the full review here). However, other Disney World restaurants had some changes this week, so let’s see what’s been updated.
