WDW Radio # 734 - Best of the Best: Food and Dining in Walt Disney World Disney 100 celebrates a legacy of 100 years of not only remarkable storytelling, but what I feel is a century of standing out being the "best of the best" in a wide and deep spectrum of areas.

So to honor the Disney 100 celebration, we will start looking at the best of the best not just in the Disney Parks, but in movies, television, and much more. And it's only appropriate that we kick off this Disney 100 celebration in Walt Disney World, and more specifically, the Best of the Best Food in Walt Disney World. We'll look at everything from what to eat, where, and why, and in future installations of this series, I'll turn to you not just for inspiration, but to maybe join me on a future episode!
