food IS a theme park
Spooky season is here, and we are so ready!
Mickey pumpkin in Disneyland
It won’t be long until we see that giant Mickey pumpkin on Main Street, U.S.A. in Disneyland. Halloween snacks and drinks are just around the corner, as is pumpkin spice season, and the first Oogie Boogie Bash is coming up soon. Halloween merchandise has already started to appear, but there’s one new spooky collection that select Disneyland visitors will get early access to.
Are you planning a trip to Disneyland?
Disneyland
We’re sure you’ve been planning to eat some of that infamous Disneyland food that we always go on about (yes, that food is AMAZING). Maybe you’ve made a list of snacks you want to try from corn dogs to churros (SO many churros) to Mickey beignets. Well, we have some bad news about some food in Disneyland: we’ve seen some price increases across the board for a lot of Disneyland restaurants and snacks.
Are you looking for good dining deals at Disneyland? One of Downtown Disney’s newest restaurants has you covered!

The Disneyland Resort location features a menu created by Michelin Star-winning chef Carlos Gaytán and offers high-end Mexican cuisine. RIGHT NOW, Paseo is offering a special deal that’s PERFECT if you’re dining for two — read below to see if you qualify!
We are constantly visiting both Disney World and Disneyland and one thing is for certain — both resorts are VASTLY different!
Disneyland
Disney World and Disneyland have a ton of differences. Featuring different accommodations, attractions, dining options, and entertainment, visiting each resort will result in wildly different experiences. In fact, if you’re a Disney World pro planning a trip to Disneyland, there’s one major rule you can almost always ignore!
Come with us to Disneyland to check out the resort’s newest restaurant!
Downtown Disney
We headed over to Disneyland Resort’s Downtown Disney District to try its newest restaurant offering — Din Tai Fung! This award-winning, family-owned restaurant is known for its dumplings and already has several locations in California. Now, it’s available at Disneyland!
A new restaurant is now open at Downtown Disney!
Din Tai Fung
Disney shared a while back that the iconic Din Tai Fung restaurant — famous for its soup dumplings — would be opening in the Anaheim shopping and dining district sometime this year, and now that time has officially come! Din Tai Fung is now open at Downtown Disney and we’re bringing you along for our first look!
Downtown Disney in Anaheim recently added three new restaurants — but they’re still not stopping!
Din Tai Fung
A while back, we learned that the iconic Din Tai Fung restaurant — famous for its soup dumplings — would be opening in this shopping and dining district sometime this year, we just didn’t know when. Disney had shared an opening timeline, but now it’s official and we know when you’ll be able to try those delicious dumps!
The year has been flying by and we’ll be approaching the Halloween season in just a few months!

We simply can’t get enough beignets so when we heard a new one was available at the Disneyland Resort, we couldn’t help but rush over to try it!
