food IS a theme park
Greetings from the West Coast, DFBers!
We love this view!
We’ve been hanging around Disneyland, Disney California Adventure, and Downtown Disney, checking out all the new food, merchandise, and more. And we’re here with ALL the updates!
Some time ago, the Mandara Spa at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel closed its doors permanently. But, Disney announced that the new Tenaya Stone Spa would replace it.

The spa was originally set to debut in the Spring of 2020, but its opening was thereafter delayed. We’ve been waiting for quite some time to hear when this new spa would finally open and now we finally have a date!
Character dining has returned to Disneyland Resort!
Plaza Inn
We’ve already had a chance to enjoy the return of characters to breakfast at Storytellers Cafe at Disney’s Grand Californian, and we’re looking forward to the Disney Princess Breakfast Adventures at Napa Rose at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa!
After Disneyland reopened, not everything reopened with it. This includes many restaurants at the resort.
Disney Princess Breakfast Adventure Will reopen soon at Napa Rose!
But we’re starting to get reopening dates for those restaurants, including dates when reservations will first open up for those spots, too. And TODAY is a big day for dining reservations.
Hello from the West Coast, DFBers!
The Big Cheese!
We’ve been to Disneyland, Downtown Disney, and Disney California Adventure checking out everything that’s been going on and seeing what’s new! So how about some updates?
Things are changing all around Disneyland Resort!
Disneyland
Four fan-favorite restaurants are reopening soon, new luxury hotels have opened nearby, and Trader Sam’s will soon be taking reservations. Now, more changes are on the way for a very special Disneyland Cast Member program!
After canceling its previous program earlier this year, Disneyland Resort has finally released information on its new annual passes!
Legacy Passholders finally have answers on what’s next!
The new program is called Magic Key and comes in four tiers, each with different prices and benefits. It will launch on August 25th, 2021, and there’s a lot that you need to know before you buy a pass for yourself. So today, we’re sharing the little (but important!) details that you may have missed!
Alright Disneylanders, we’ve got BIG news today.
Disneyland
Yesterday, Disneyland teased its new Annual Pass program called Magic Key. Disneyland’s previous Annual Passholder program was discontinued at the beginning of this year and we’ve been waiting for its replacement. Let’s learn more about Magic Key!
When we hit the Disney Parks, we’ve usually got food on the mind.
Bread Bowl!!!
Just last weekend we were reunited with the ICONIC bread bowls at Disney California Adventure when Pacific Wharf Cafe reopened. Now, to celebrate the return of the cheesy, bready goodness we’re taking a look behind the scenes!
Over the years we have seen some of our favorite treats be removed from the menu and some changed to become a less exciting version of themselves.

Sometimes, however, Disney can throw us for a loop and bring back one of our old favorites and today was one of those days! To our pleasant surprise, we spotted an old favorite while walking around Disneyland today! [Read more…]
