Disney by the Numbers

     Walt Disney World is big business, that's for sure.  It's also very expensive, especially for a family to stay there, enjoy the rides and attractions, and be fed.  But considering all that there is to see and do and experience it is an amazing place.  

   

Consider these numbers:

     There are over 40 themed attractions where food is served.  They include:
4 Major Parks: The Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom
2 Water Parks: Typhoon Lagoon & Blizzard Beach
3 Hotels: The Contemporary, The Dolphin, and The Swan
2 Lodges: Animal Kingdom & Wilderness
2 Spas: Grand Floridian & Saratoga Springs
2 Villas: Animal Kingdom & Boardwalk
14 Resorts (too many to list here)
3 Adult Theme Locations: Boardwalk, Downtown Disney & ESPN
1 Inn: Boardwalk
1 Campground: Fort Wilderness



And at all those venues there are no less than a combined 326 food options.  Everything from  food trucks, popcorn stands and fast food to fine dining with a 7 course prix fixe meal.  ...and lots in between.





Now consider that the menu in most places has at least 6 entree choices, which is reasonable.  That would add up to nearly 2,000 different options for a single diner.  That's almost 2 years of eating breakfast, lunch and dinner at Walt Disney World without duplicating a single meal!



After Christmas I will give you my picks and pans of culinary Disney.
