It’s time to visit the newly refurbished Naples Ristorante in Disneyland Resort’s Downtown Disney. This popular table service restaurant is run by Patina Group, the same folks who run Via Napoli in Walt Disney World. And you know how we feel about that!

Naples Ristorante is lookin’ sharp, y’all! The lovely new floors and bright interior is classic and simple — sort of.
With flavors like Black Olive Brittle & Goat Cheese and the seasonal Salted Caramel Thanksgiving Turkey, the Salt & Straw small batch ice cream scoop shop has certainly been making its mark in Disneyland’s Downtown Disney District since the October opening of the Anaheim location.
Salt & Straw
And now, even more guests will be able to partake in the fun and unique ice cream flavors at Salt & Straw, as the company has just announced that they are “making a big commitment to plant-based deliciousness in 2019, with at least 20% of the Salt & Straw shop menus being plant-based on an ongoing basis.” And they’re starting with a January Vegandulgence menu featuring vegan ice cream “that you’d never know is dairy free.” [Read more…]

is always a good time. This character meal is similar to Disney World’s Chef Mickey’s in that you’ll meet some of the same characters (with a few surprising ones!) and dine on family-friendly buffet food. And our Disneyland correspondent Heather (check her out @DiningInDisney!) tells us there are some funky new pizza options here that you’re definitely going to want to see!
