Tiana’s Palace, a new Princess and the Frog-themed dining location is set to debut on September 7th, 2023 — taking over the old French Market Restaurant in New Orleans Square. We recently got a look at what will be on the menu, but now we have a complete list with prices — come take a look!

Earlier this year, Disney announced that the new Princess and the Frog-themed restaurant would be taking the place of the existing French Market Restaurant in New Orleans Square, opening on September 7th, 2023. Tiana’s Palace is part of a transformation based around the retheming of Splash Mountain into Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, and we have been excited to see how it evolves! Well, today we got some BIG news about this dining location — the full menu has been REVEALED!
Haunted Mansion Holiday is a classic seasonal overlay at Disneyland that features the characters of Nightmare Before Christmas taking over the Haunted Mansion.
Haunted Mansion Holiday is here!!!
If riding the beloved attraction with this overlay wasn’t enough, we tried a new treat based on the classic overlay!
There’s a spooky returning snack in Disneyland!
Haunted Mansion
We’ve seen quite a few versions of a Haunted Mansion wedding cake on both coasts, from Constance’s For Better or For Worse Wedding Cake in Magic Kingdom to a cherry-inspired wedding cake in Disneyland (We’ve even seen a holiday version!). And now, one of those creepy eats is BACK.
We’ve been having a blast sampling all of the new holiday menu items at Disneyland as this Christmas season officially kicks off!
French Market
So far we’ve feasted on the new festive offerings at Rancho del Zocalo and the new Burnt Ends Grilled Cheese Sandwich at River Belle Terrace to name just a few! Now we’re heading over to the French Market Restaurant in New Orleans Square to try their new holiday Smothered Beef!

We’ve also caught wind of a pretty neat Maleficent souvenir that can be found in the parks. Here’s what we know.
Welcome foodie mortals! In case you didn’t know, the Haunted Mansion will be celebrating its 50th anniversary on August 9th.

Not only will Disneyland be ghost hosting a Haunted Mansion event but both Disneyland and Disney World will be selling exclusive merchandise and treats.
We’re in the final stretch to Halloween, but Disneyland isn’t slowing down when it comes to introducing new, spooky snacks! We brought you the scoop on all of the autumnal sweet treats available earlier this season, but now we’ve got two new goodies to add to the list. Big thank you to @catrinoms and @thedukeofdonuts for tagging us on Instagram!
Halloween Gingerbread Man ©catrinoms
First up: the Halloween Gingerbread Man from Disneyland’s French Market. Picture a fluffy Gingerbread Man cookie… but dressed for Halloween. Catrina says he’s super soft and so delicious. We’ve also heard that he’s sold once in a while at the cart by Haunted Mansion. You can choose from green or orange icing.
Happy December! We can’t believe that we’re already one full week into the month – there is so much going on with holiday preparation and shopping and baking!
