Avalunch

By Melissa — lives fifteen minutes from Walt Disney World and is in the parks most weeks

Who that is

Writer and presenter, Whistle While You Work

Melissa moved to Celebration, Florida, and stopped treating Disney as a once-a-year sprint. She is in the parks most weeks, films what she finds, and writes the pages here from that — plus the research it takes to check it. Her position, in her own words: Disney does not have to be perfect to be magical, and the goal was never to do everything.

Is it worth the money?

Dear for what it is, and that is the water park in general. The $13.79 foot-long is above the $13.00 median main course across the quick-service counters we hold Disney menus for, and it is a hot dog. The salads and the veggie wrap are the better value.

Who it’s right for

A hot lunch at Blizzard Beach without leaving for the day.

Who it’s wrong for

Anyone counting the cost: bring the fee-free option, a refillable bottle, and eat before you arrive.
