Disney Dream Girls 251 - Disneyland Food and Wine

Welcome to the show notes for the Disney Dream Girls Podcast, show number 251 for Sunday 10th March 2019.  If you want to listen, whilst reading these notes, just click the player below or alternatively find us in iTunes, Libsyn, on Stitcher Radio or via any good podcast catching app.

Coming up on this weeks show, Michelle is joined by fellow podcaster - Tommy Allison and together they talk about Disneyland.

The show begins with a general chat with what's happening over at Disneyland.   

Jessie's Critter Carousel
Due to open in April 2019, Disney are currently adding the final finishing touches to the new addition to the Pixar Pier area.

World of Color
Finally, this fan favourite is now back!To ensure a good spot, Disney Dream Girl Podcast Family members suggest considering a dessert package but you can also opt for a meal package. Both of these enable either a guaranteed seat or standing view of the show. However, Fastpasses are available as well as standby and these options are free!

Galaxy's Edge
Post recording the show, opening details were released. However, Tommy shares some details from the press event.
Disneyland's will open 31st May 2019. However, if you are wishing to enter the land between that date and up to the 23rd June 2019, you will need theme park admission PLUS a no-cost reservation for admittance to the land. Details on how to make this reservation have not been released as yet.

Walt Disney World have planned a phased opening with The Millenium Falcon: Smuggler's Run opening on 29th August 2019 and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance opening later in the year. 

According to the press details, the capacity for the lands will be limited and access may be restricted or unavailable depending on guest demand or other factors. This applies to whether you have a hotel package, are Disney Vacation Club members or Annual Pass Holders. So the news is - just because you have park entrance it does not mean you will be able to access the land. 

Food and Wine Festival

From 1st March through to the 23rd April 2019, this food and drink festival runs in Disney California Adventure. 

Tommy recommends purchasing the Sip and Savor Pass as a handway of purchasing your food and drink as it will save you a few $.

Nuts About Cheese

Together, Michelle and Tommy talk through some of the festival highlights and Tommy makes some personal recommendations, based on what his family has tried.  

Cream Yoghurt Cheesecake

Whilst the festival is a much smaller even that Walt Disney World's version, the food offerings look amazing. There is such a wide range of things to try.

Jalepino Lime Margarita

Above is the drink Michelle chose for Jayne. However, we all know Jayne loves a good burger (albeit minus the bun) so below is the Petit Impossible Burger, which looks pretty amazing. Lena Allison tried this for us and said it was delicious.

Yum! However, you may wish to try the dessert that Michelle is yearning for - the Black Forest Parfait.

For the absolute foodie,  why not attend one of their special events where a celebrity chef will make a dish as well as guests being able to enjoy a buffet brunch. 

So that wraps up this weeks show, we will be back next week with lots more Disney chat!
