food IS a theme park
Remember when we told you what you HAD to eat in Disneyland? (Of course you do! It was like last week!) Well, today, we’re back with even more of what you MUST eat in Disneyland — Part 2, in our latest DFB Video!
The Peanut Butter Sandwich in Disneyland
Disneyland has incredible food across the board, but even so, we have our favorites. In our first episode, we shared Disneyland’s Dole Whip Float (with umbrella and cherry!), and made trips to Cafe Orleans and River Belle Terrace. [Read more…]
Hey Guys! We’re back with another DFB Video today, and we’re getting down to the serious business of what you MUST eat in Disneyland — Part 1!
Monte Cristo Sandwich at Cafe Orleans
Yep — there is so much good stuff in Disneyland that we had to split this one into two episodes, or we’d all run the risk of overstimulation! 😀
In this first video, we’ll start you off at River Belle Terrace. This classic spot has been around for ages, but these days, it’s table service. And it’s also the home of some secret menu items: Loaded Tots! You Guys. I promise. You need these in your life. But THEN, we head to Cafe Orleans, where I share my favorite picks from that classic menu! [Read more…]
Think August is too early for Halloween? Well, not exactly… at least not in Magic Kingdom, where preparations are on for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party which kicks off on August 25th! Disneyland follows suit on September 20th with Mickey’s Halloween Party.
Someone else is getting ready for Halloween, too… our friend Donna Yan, who creates Cute Food Art featuring iconic Disney snacks! And she JUST came out with three prints for the most ghoulish time of the year! Just look at all the details on the Mickey Beignets and Mint Julep — Halloween Version print (Hello, Zero!). That Maleficent krispy treat is epic. And see the spiderweb detail on the Mickey balloon, just like they have in the parks during the Halloween season??
The Poison Apple Mug with Grapes is full to overflowing with grapes all decked out in their costumes, including a teeny tiny Haunted Mansion Cast Member. [Read more…]
Heather Sievers, our Disneyland correspondent and the queen behind @DiningInDisney, knows how to have fun with Disney food. She’s hooking us up with Disney Frankenfoods, which are mash-ups between two (or more!) complementary Disney foods. Today we have one of her most recent food combos — a Churro Cotton Candy Churro!
Churro Cotton Candy is found in Disneyland’s Downtown Disney. You can find tubs of cotton candy in unique flavors like Strawberry Lemonade, Green Apple, and Pina Colada! These tubs are super convenient; it’s a lot easier to keep your cotton candy fresh throughout the day when it comes in a tub rather than a bag.

Heather went straight for the Churro Cotton Candy. But she also knew it wasn’t quite complete. Because what could go better with Churro Cotton Candy than an actual Churro? So she grabbed one of those, too. Wrap that cinnamon-sugar stick in the spiced spun sugar, and BA-DAH-BING!
You’ve got yourself a Churro Cotton Candy Churro! [Read more…]
It’s big news over in Disneyland that the nighttime spectacular Fantasmic! is back!
Fantasmic at Disneyland
We recently enjoyed the return of the show — along with dinner at River Belle Terrace — thanks to the Fantasmic Dining Package. However, River Belle Terrace will be undergoing a refurbishment starting in September. So with the Fantasmic Dining Packages in high demand, a different option will be on offer in its place: the Fantasmic Dining Package at Cafe Orleans! [Read more…]
Fantasmic is back! Fantasmic is back!
Can you tell we’re excited?!
Fantasmic at Disneyland
Oh. My. Goodness! I have something that I have been absolutely ITCHING to share! And it’s something YOU can totally enjoy whether or not you are in Disneyland or Disney World. Because this amazing artwork by Donna Yan will help you celebrate many of YOUR favorite iconic Disney foods from your own home!
Donna Yan’s prints are, in her words, “Cute Food Art Inspired by My Travels.” And while those travels primarily take her to Disneyland, Hawaii, and Japan, Disney World frequenters will find plenty to adore here, too.
For instance, these too-cute-for-words Mickey Premium Ice Cream Bars can be appreciated on both coasts!

Same with the Dole Whip print 🙂 .
Should you find yourself in Disneyland’s Tomorrowland after 9 pm and in need of a bite, you might want to blast on over to Galactic Grill to check out their new Late Night Menu!

The Mint Julep Bar located in New Orleans Square is essentially a must-do for every Disneyland guest. You’ll find it tucked into the patio area of French Market Restaurant and right next to the New Orleans Square train station.
