On Sept. 11, Disney Parks Blog announced food trucks will be added to Downtown Disney at Walt Disney World Resort, with the first addition appearing later this fall.
Each of the four food trucks, appropriately, will be themed to capture different qualities found in Disney Parks. According to the Disney Parks Blog, each truck will also represent food from a different Disney Park as well offer selections from Walt Disney World restaurants.
The “Enchanted Fare" food truck emphasizes popular items from various Disneyland parks and Magic Kingdom. On the menu: Magic Kingdom's Croque Monsieur (found at Be Our Guest Restaurant); Disneyland Park's Hand-Dipped Corn Dogs (multiple locations); and Hong Kong Disneyland's Glass Noodle Salad.
As its name suggests, “The World Showcase of Flavors” features food from Epcot. This truck will highlight items from the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival. On the menu: Grass-Fed Beef Sliders (featured at the Florida Local Marketplace Kiosk this year), Pierogi with Kielbasa (Poland Marketplace Kiosk) and Lobster Rolls (Hops & Barley Marketplace Kiosk).
“Superstar Catering” focuses on meatballs, one of the food options found throughout Disney's Hollywood Studios. Featured on the menu will be Lamb Meatball Flatbread with Tzatziki.
The “Namaste Café" food truck offers some of Disney's savory best, serving dishes presumably inspired by WDW's Indian-African dishes as found at Disney's Animal Kingdom, Animal Kingdom Lodge and Disney's Art of Animation Resort. On the menu: Butter Chicken, Slow-Cooked Beef Short Ribs and Tandoori Spiced Shrimp. (Similar items are currently on Sanaa's menu.) All dishes will be served with Naan.
As of this writing, Walt Disney World has not confirmed whether the Downtown Disney food trucks will accept Disney Dining Plan credits.
