Starring Rolls, located on the corner of Sunset Boulevard at Disney’s Hollywood Studios is probably one of my favourite quick service restaurants at Disney World, for a whole variety of reasons: I love the name – I’m always one for a pun – located in the film themed park, it is Starring Rolls/Roles – like [...]

For first time visitors, these passes, which enable to you access rides via a shorter queue at Disney and Universal, can be pretty confusing given that there are different options and they work differently in the two resorts, so I figured I’d give you the low down on how these work.

The Tangierine Café is the quick service restaurant located in Morocco in World Showcase, in Epcot. I don’t know how, given the kind of food it sells, but for some reason we had always passed this restaurant by, so for our latest trip we decided that we were definitely going to give it a try. [...]
