Sometimes, interviews don’t always go as planned… and that’s not necessarily a bad thing, as is the case this week. I recently sat down with renowned chef (and all-around nice guy) Art Smith, of Homecomin’ in Disney Springs fame. We met at the restaurant to talk about new menu items, Florida Fresh, and more… but the conversation wonderfully turned to so much more. So this week, I invite you to pull up a chair, grab some hush puppies and deviled eggs (maybe a little moonshine if you’re so inclined), and chat with me and the delightful Chef Art Smith.

I’ll share not just details from my visit, but my exclusive interview with the lead Imagineers on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure for a look at some of the details, secrets, and stories behind the attraction.
