Food Booths:

Throughout the park, numerous food booths are set up to cater to every palate. These booths are located in various sections, making it convenient for visitors to indulge in their favorite dishes. Here are just a few of the must-visit food booths:

  1. Loaded Potato Tornado: Get ready to spiral into a world of flavor with the Loaded Potato Tornado. Enjoy an innovative take on the classic spud as freshly cut potatoes are skewered, seasoned, and deep-fried to create a crispy, golden treat. It has a beautiful an dfun presentation, but was admittedly a little difficult to eat.

  1. Hibachi Skillet Pork Belly: Fill your belly with the Hibachi Skillet Pork Belly (also available with chicken.) This was a good sized portion for the price, willed with fried rice, carrots, and peas. We would definitely get this one again, and maybe try the chicken option.

  1. S’mores Funnel Cake: For those with a sweet tooth, the S’mores Funnel Cake is a dream come true. Indulge in a classic funnel cake topped with gooey marshmallows, melted chocolate, and crumbled graham crackers. This delicious twist on a beloved campfire treat is the perfect combination of crispy, fluffy, and chocolatey goodness.

  1. Three Little Pigs Sandwich: Calling all barbecue enthusiasts! Head over and try the Three Little Pigs Sandwich, which contains roasted pork loin, pulled pork shoulder, and smoked sausage. You also get a side of slaw. With each bite, you’ll understand why this booth is a perennial favorite among visitors (and Bobby’s favorite of the day!)

  1. Open-Faced Grilled Cheese: Cheese lovers unite! The Open-Faced Grilled Cheese was my personal favorite. This treat came on toasted bread and contained four cheeses, including cream cheese. I honestly wasn’t expecting to love it as much as I did, so if you are all about cheese like me, don’t miss this stop! It’s back near the train station.

Tasting Passes:

To make the most of the culinary adventure at Dollywood’s Summer Celebration, visitors can purchase tasting passes. These passes allow you to sample a selection of dishes from various food booths at a discounted price. (Certain annual passholders get an additional discount!) With a tasting pass in hand, you can explore a wide range of flavors, ensuring you don’t miss out on any of the park’s mouthwatering offerings.

 Dollywood’s Summer Celebration 2023 is a not-to-be-missed event for food enthusiasts and theme park lovers alike. With a diverse range of food booths along with fun shows and a drone show, it’s the perfect time to visit. Hurry, August 6th will be here before you know it, and the celebration will be over. Book your trip now!

BACKSTORY TIME! 🚘 I drove the same Toyota 4Ru BACKSTORY TIME! 🚘 

I drove the same Toyota 4Runner for 14 1/2 years. Last October, we got a good deal on a Highlander platinum with 10,000 miles on it from @foxtoyota. 

The only problem is, I wanted the Grand Highlander platinum, because it has way more cargo room, legroom, and some other features that the regular Highlander doesn’t have. I thought that’s what we were getting, but it wasn’t available and we ended up with the regular Highlander, which don’t get me wrong, I was very grateful for after driving the same car for so long.

However, as the months went on, the differences were very noticeable, especially with how much we travel and the lack of space. Without me knowing, Bobby had been doing research and working with the wonderful folks at Fox, and was able to find us a brand new Grand Highlander platinum. 

He had hoped it would arrive for my birthday, but it was a couple weeks late, which was totally worth it. He’s usually really bad at surprising me (my 40th birthday party a couple weeks ago was supposed to be a surprise, but I found out.) so I was truly in shock and speechless when I came home and this new car, which we named Ruby, was in the garage!

@bobbymontg may not be the most romantic guy, but he shows his love in ways that he knows I appreciate. Best birthday gift ever! 🩷

While grabbing a few things at Walgreens, I picked up a Kohl’s gift card and turned it into the cutest teacher gift — a mason jar wrapped in ribbon, full of pencils with a tag that says “This year is going to be on point.” 🎯 

It’s simple, thoughtful, and super practical — because who doesn’t love a gift they can actually use? 

Walgreens makes it so easy to grab @incommpayments gift cards for everyone on your back-to-school list — from teachers to even yourself (because let’s be real, moms need a win too 😉).
