A couple days ago, Disney announced that The Disney Dining Plan will be returning.
The Disney Dining Plan helps you plan what you are going to eat ahead of time and might help save money. You have to be staying at a Disney Resort to be able to use it.
The lasagna from Tutto Italia Ristorante.
The Disney Dining plan will be available for resort guests just like it was before. Disney has not yet announced a return date, but they have said it will be returning “at a later date.”
