On a recent visit to Disneyland Park, my family and I decided it was time to make the French Market in New Orleans Square our next stop on the Culinary Quest. We expected great things, especially when considering its proximity to Cafe Orleans and Blue Bayou.

It’s that time again…time for a Disneyland Resort construction update.  I know it’s been awhile, but with World of Color now open, construction has been progressing as normal over at California Adventure, and there was really nothing new to report.  Things have changed in the last week or so, and we’re seeing some new construction [...]

On Saturday, July 17th, Disneyland celebrated its 55th Birthday.  They celebrated the day with several merchandise releases, a couple of emotional ceremonies and even a few surprises.  It was a hot day in Southern California, just like opening day in 1955, but we braved the heat and enjoyed Disneyland’s birthday party.  Read on for some pictures and highlights from the day.

The very first blog I ever wrote professed my love for Steakhouse 55 at the Disneyland Hotel. I had heard that Steakhouse 55 served breakfast too, but had never really thought about partaking in it. One morning, as my wife and I were cruising the resort on a dining fact finding mission, we [...]
