These Downtown Disney restaurants share neighborhood space and all have been added to the Disney Dining Plan.

(We LURVE the frosting-filled cookie sandwiches!)

And here’s another fantastic option – if you purchase a Quick Service meal with your DDP at Pollo Campero or Fresh-A-Peel – a BabyCakes NYC bakery item can be redeemed for your quick service dessert!
We don’t need a reason to visit these new eateries but these Disney Dining Plan options sure make a stop here extra credit-worthy!

Hats off to Chef Hunnel. I wish you the best of luck.
My fingers are crossed for you, too, Chef!
That’s awesome to know that the Babycakes are available on the DDP! I’m really interested to try their stuff – everything looks delicious!
Having a Babycakes dessert with a counter meal is great. Most of the counter desserts are at best average and in many cases, forgettable. This is great information.
I think I got a cavity just from looking at the photo of that Babycakes dessert.
Congratulations Chef Scott Hunnel on being named as a semi-finalist in the James Beard Foundation’s 2011 Restaurant and Chef Awards. I look forward, with great anticipation, to dining at Victoria & Albert’s in October. I wish you continued success.
