    Every time we go to Disney we're taking the boat to Port Orleans for the beignets. But... this cornbread has captured my heart.❤ I love a good , moist cornbread with a lot of butter. This will be obtained on our next trip. Thanks Kristin!! 😋😋😋😋

    Love this girl ! She is always so honest and that’s why I go to her for any and all food related reviews. I know what Vloggers aren’t going to be quite as honest because well we know why 😂Which I understand, but I definitely come here for the real deal. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

      Just a note, even if you check in with the app, when you get to the resort and don’t like your room location you can ask for other options. We’ve done this on our past two trips and they have been able to find something better for us.

    lovely video, as someone from Louisiana, I would most definitely pick something that is authentic of the culture, like gumbo or jambalaya or red beans or fried seafood. Beautiful depiction of New Orleans. Thank you for sharing this.

    Port Orleans has always been my favorite resort. I have stayed in many of the deluxe resorts and DVC rooms. But the theming and size of this resort is the best. And you can have beignets every morning. The jambalaya is also really good, too.

    Port Orleans the French quarter is my favorite hotel. As a single mom when my kids were little it’s such a small resort it was easy to carry a sleeping baby after a long park day.
    I have been to New Orleans and I would rather go to Disney.

    French quarter used to have French toast with a berry compote and it was so good!! I was so upset when I found out they got rid of it. I hate that all the resorts have a very basic menu for breakfast now (for quick service). It’s my favorite meal of the day. Saratoga still has the French toast strata that I like. But most resorts are very basic these days
