Description
Walt Disney World honors its fiftieth anniversary with "The World's Most Magical Celebration," an incredible 18-month event that begins October 1, 2021. As part of the festivities, Delicious Disney: Walt Disney World is a holistic look at the Florida resort's culinary past, present, and future--all organically woven around diverse recipes from the Disney Chefs and fit for home chefs of varying skill levels.
After the success of Disneyland, Walt Disney wanted to build something more elaborate and with more room. Ultimately, it was Walt's brother and business partner, Roy O. Disney, who brought forth his sibling's dream--and made it a reality--when the Magic Kingdom opened in 1971. More than fifty years later, we still celebrate Walt's dream, Roy's vision and commitment, plus the dedication of those who serve up a world of magic. And all of it is deliciously Disney. Filled with a heartfelt narrative and behind-the-scenes anecdotes, mouth-watering food photos, gorgeous Walt Disney Imagineering concept artwork, nostalgic restaurant menus and ephemera, and a little Disney magic, this cookbook-meets-culinary-history coffee table book enchants with more than sixty recipes. Including an assortment of appetizers, main courses, sides, desserts, and even joyful libations, these dishes come from fine-dining and quick-service establishments across the resort. Each has been tested by home chefs to help you bring your cherished vacation memories to life . . . and inspire new ones for years to come. Here's just a sampling of what awaits inside:

One of "24 Gifts for the Friend Who'd Rather Be at Disney . . . Every Disney fan has a favorite snack and meal in the parks. With this Delicious Disney: Walt Disney World cookbook, you can make your favorite Disney treats right at home with recipes straight from the Disney chefs. The book features a mix of past and present favorites from the resorts, including the banana-stuffed Tonga Toast. . ."
-- Valerie Marino & Megan Dubois, Condé Nast Traveler "There's the Breakfast Lasagna, the beloved creation from the Crystal Palace (the Magic Kingdom's greenhouse-inspired Victorian eatery) that layers waffles, pound cake, pancakes, bananas, custard, pastry cream, and berries into one epic bite. . . . Recipes aside, authors Pam Brandon and Marcy Carriker Smothers have also filled the book with behind-the-scenes anecdotes of the creation of Disney World, alongside gorgeous Walt Disney Imagineering concept artwork, nostalgic restaurant menus, and mouth-watering food photos."
-- Dave Quinn, PEOPLE One of the "45 Best Disney Gifts for Adult Fans of the Parks, Movies and Characters."
-- Brie Schwartz and Karla Pop, Woman's Day "My favorite thing about Disney World isn't the rides. It's eating and drinking all the things. . . . 'Delicious Disney: Walt Disney World: Recipes & Stories from The Most Magical Place on Earth' shares recipes from the Disney World of yesterday and today. . . . My homemade Ronto Wrap looked surprisingly similar to the real thing. . . . I cleaned my plate and made them the next night as well."
-- Tarah Chieffi, Business Insider "This book is not only providing us with fun at home, but it is also giving us something new to look forward to when we visit the parks next. . . . The recipes that I chose in this cookbook were incredibly straight forward and easy to follow. . . . The layout, recipes, and cooking instructions in Delicious Disney: Walt Disney World: Recipes & Stories from The Most Magical Place on Earth make it easy for even the most inexperienced cooks to follow along."
-- Alessandra Sferlazza, WDW Magazine "This is a cookbook, with recipes for iconic dishes like the Grey Stuff, Tonga Toast, Kungaloosh, Ronto Wrap, Hollywood Brown Derby Grapefruit Cake, and Le Cellier Steakhouse Cheese Soup. However, it's also so much more. You'll also find rare restaurant concept art, history (my favorite is "Walt Loved Fried Chicken"), and old menu scans."
-- Tom Bricker, disneytouristblog.com "Disney fans will love cooking from "Delicious Disney: Walt Disney World - Recipes & Stories from the Most Magical Place on Earth," however it is a great cookbook for anyone who loves to cook. The cookbook is filled with gorgeous full-color photos of each dish, as well as concept artwork, past and current photos of Walt Disney World, vintage restaurant menus, and other ephemera. Although all cookbooks should be read from cover to cover, this cookbook is no exception."
