food IS a theme park
There are always changes happening at Disneyland Resort!
Disneyland Park
This time we spotted an update to the Disneyland Resort website and app, and we wanted to let you know about this new feature. We are always fans of updates that help to make planning a Disneyland vacation easier, and we think this update will do just that.
Disney parks have gone through some massive changes over the years, with each transformation bringing the House of Mouse further into the future.
Disneyland
These updates, new rides, lands, and even whole theme parks can mean we have to say goodbye to beloved attractions. But, not all former Disney park experiences are remembered quite so fondly, with some just being downright strange. And so, Dear DFB Reader, it’s now that we feel we must tell you about Disneyland’s weird abandoned catfish attraction.
Sometimes you just want a snack that is fun, and well, Disney often delivers on that.
Cafe Daisy
In Disneyland, we’ve had our share of super fun Pixar desserts, thanks to Pixar Fest, a Matterhorn-themed Dole Whip (celebrating our favorite “spine-adjusting” ride), some colorful Pride snacks, and even a new Choco Taco-dupe. So now, we’re heading to Toontown in Disneyland (which got a huge makeover in 2023) to visit Cafe Daisy for some fun mini donuts!
Who’s ready for an adventure in Disneyland? We are!
Downtown Disney at Disneyland!
We love checking out all the new eats in the park, especially over at Downtown Disney! We’ve been keeping you updated with reviews for the new restaurants that have opened and snacks we’ve gotten to try, but you NEED to check out this sneak peek we got at the apparel coming to Din Tai Fung!
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!
Beignets Expressed
Downtown Disney is full of great shops and eateries, and one of our absolute favorites is Beignets Expressed! Serving a wide variety of beignets, this small shop next to Jazz Kitchen Coastal Grill and Patio is currently offering a new glazed beignet of the month and we tried it — here’s what we thought!

Have we been sleeping on a classic Disney snack?
Disneyland
Disneyland opened in 1955 and has since served as the blueprint for the ultimate theme park experience. With innovative attractions, unforgettable theming, and excellent food, Disneyland remains a true juggernaut in the industry. Speaking of excellent food, The Happiest Place on Earth certainly doesn’t lack any — but has one classic Disneyland treat been unjustly forgotten?
We’ve got some bad news to deliver…A wildly popular Marvel show is about to be no more.
Avengers Campus
Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure opened in 2021 and the Doctor Strange: Mysteries of the Mystic Arts show has been part of the land since Day 1. However, it appears that its run is about to end soon, and there may be some hidden reasons behind the closing.
Every Disneyland bucket list should include dining at Blue Bayou Restaurant!
Blue Bayou
Blue Bayou is an atmospheric dining experience found in New Orleans Square at Disneyland Park. Literally found within the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction in the bayou scene, Blue Bayou opened in 1967 and serves Cajun cuisine. One of the most famous Disney restaurants in the world and serving as inspiration for many other atmospheric dining experiences that followed, Blue Bayou remains legendary to this day. But does it hold up after all this time? We recently visited and found an answer!
