]]> 0 Piston Peak National Park Builds on the Story of Frontierland Today, we are excited to share that Piston Peak National Park will continue the sweeping storytelling tradition that has crossed Liberty Square and Frontierland since opening day.  

]]> Tue, 03 Jun 2025 11:08:16 -0400 https://www.disneytravelagents.com/news/11776 https://www.disneytravelagents.com/news/11776 (Disney Destinations) Disney Destinations

Cars from around the country are fueling up to be the wildest racer in the “wheelderness.” Of course, we know that fans are curious to see how the exciting new backdrop for the big rally race will fit into the waters, landscapes, and storytelling at Magic Kingdom. 

Today, we are excited to share that Piston Peak National Park will continue the sweeping storytelling tradition that has crossed Liberty Square and Frontierland since opening day.  

Westward Ho! Crossing into New Frontiers at Magic Kingdom

Since the early days of Magic Kingdom, adventurous guests have traveled across space and time as they pass from Liberty Square to Frontierland. Starting with architectural influences from upstate New York and colonial America in Liberty Square, before traveling to a bear-y fun concert in the North Woods, a stop by New Orleans at Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, and ending in the Arizona bluffs at Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.  

At the heart of all these stories are heroic characters with a belief in themselves that helped forge a path to their dreams. To continue this journey in great American storytelling, Piston Peak National Park will be part of the largest expansion in the history of Magic Kingdom.

Welcome to Piston Peak National Park

Imagine an awe-inspiring wilderness filled with towering trees, snowcapped mountains, breathtaking waterfalls, roaring rivers and impressive geysers. While fictional, Piston Peak is inspired by the Rocky Mountain area and the history and iconic sights of the American Frontier and its national parks.  

Inside Piston Peak, guests will be able to see and explore the visitor lodge, Ranger HQ, trails and more all set within the Disney and Pixar “Cars” universe. To make sure these buildings fit naturally within the surrounding majestic landscapes, Imagineers are using a style of architecture called “Parkitecture,” which was developed by the National Park Service to create structures that harmonize with the natural environment.   

From the outside, trees will provide a natural barrier between the off-road rally and other parts of Frontierland and Liberty Square. Rugged mountains with dramatic peaks will be nestled along a calming waterway across from Grizzly Hall and soaring geysers from the famed Big Thunder Mountain Railroad will stretch into the trails of our off-road rally. 

Cruising Just Around the Bend 

As work revs into high gear this summer, the Rivers of America, Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Square Riverboat will close beginning July 7. Imagineers are also hard at work beyond Big Thunder Mountain Railroad bringing to life the first-ever land inspired by the Disney Villains with two major attractions, dining and shopping all on an incredibly twisted grand scale.   

But that’s not all happening at the Magic Kingdom. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad will reopen next year with new magic, and later this summer, Disney Starlight will grace the streets of Magic Kingdom with its grand debut on July 20, and The Beak and Barrel will welcome pirates of all ages. So follow along every step of the way on Disney Travel News because more details are coming soon.

]]> 0 Disneyland 70th Nostalgic Bites Inspired by Vintage Foods During the Disneyland 70th Anniversary Celebration, guests can “celebrate happy” for a limited time with new and returning entertainment, festive décor and of course, themed food and beverages. For many, favorite snacks at Disneyland through the years can call back treasured memories of The Happiest Place on Earth. The chefs at Disneyland Resort have tapped into the power of snacking to combine old memories with new creations, and they’ve even combed through past recipes for inspiration to create modern spins on classic eats. 

]]> Mon, 02 Jun 2025 16:04:01 -0400 https://www.disneytravelagents.com/news/11773 https://www.disneytravelagents.com/news/11773 (Disney Destinations) Disney Destinations During the Disneyland 70th Anniversary Celebration, guests can “celebrate happy” for a limited time with new and returning entertainment, festive décor and of course, themed food and beverages. For many, favorite snacks at Disneyland through the years can call back treasured memories of The Happiest Place on Earth.  

One guest may recall a distant memory in the '60s, walking up to a pirate ship to — as pirates obviously do — order a tuna sandwich. Another may remember a hazy scene under the lights of Videopolis in the ‘80s, wondering if that really happened (oh, it did). Or maybe they remember sitting down to dinner at Disneyland Park in the ‘90s; their mom tucking a napkin into their shirt and a plate of Beef Stroganoff headed their way. 

With so many decades of rich history, the chefs at Disneyland Resort have tapped into the power of snacking to combine old memories with new creations, and they’ve even combed through past recipes for inspiration to create modern spins on classic eats. Here is a guide to Disney time traveling the only way we know how … by food. 

For the full lineup of the nostalgic foods, new eats and dazzling sips at the celebration, see the Disney Eats Disneyland 70th Anniversary Foodie Guide. 

A Few of Walt’s Favorites  

He’d tell guests it was all started by a mouse, but it was Walt Disney himself that opened Disneyland Park back in 1955. Putting a few of his favs on the 70thmenu is one way to honor him during Disneyland's anniversary celebration. Here are a few new dishes inspired by Walt’s love for chili, pie, and of course, mouse ears.  

Mickey Hat Cookie  

Find it at: Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe and Market House in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Cookie dipped in chocolate with a chocolate decoration. 

These cookies utilize a design reminiscent of the mouse ear hat made popular by the Mickey Mouse Club television series in 1955. Guests are not required to sing, “M-I-C-K-E-Y’ between bites, but we won’t discourage it. 

Chili Cheese Corn Dog  

Find it at: Corn Dog Castle in Disney California Adventure Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Corn dog topped with chili, shredded cheddar, and corn chips 

Chili is a known favorite of Walt’s, with one of his recipes preserved in the Walt Disney Archives dating to 1958. Over the years, Disney chefs have refined the recipe and continue to serve “Walt’s Chili” for park guests around the world. This chili corn dog is the perfect vehicle for a heapin’ helpin’ of Walt’s homestyle favorite.  

W.E.D. Chili Cheese Baked Potato  

Find it at: Troubadour Tavern in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Baked potato topped with beef & bean chili, cheese, sour cream, diced onions, and cornbread. 

Walt enjoyed simple and comforting food, and this dish fits the bill. It’s named after WED Enterprises, the company Walt founded in 1952 to help create Disneyland. Today, WED Enterprises is known as Walt Disney Imagineering, and we are known as people who are about to eat this potato. 

Lemon Chiffon Pretzel  

Find it at: Pretzels near Star Tours – The Adventures Continue 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Cream cheese-filled pretzel dipped in lemon-flavored icing topped with crushed vanilla wafer. 

Walt famously loved pie, and one slice of choice was lemon chiffon pie with a graham cracker crust. Today, guests can take in Tomorrowland’s futuristic views while pulling apart this literal twist on one of Walt’s favorite desserts.

New Bites Inspired by Casa de Fritos 

What we’re looking at here is not only the Frito Kid, but also a chip vending mechanism — the perfect combination of surreal Disneyland foodie fun in 1955 that formed memories in the minds of kids everywhere. The Casa de Fritos was located where Rancho del Zocalo Restaurante currently serves up classic Mexican cuisine. For the Disneyland 70th Celebration, the menu includes the following two takes on Casa de Frito classics. 

Fried Tamale Walking Taco  

Find it at: Rancho Del Zocalo Restaurante in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Fried beef tamale with chili, corn chips, and diced onions with cilantro, shredded cheese, and sour cream. 

This dish is a fusion of two items once served at Casa de Fritos in Frontierland: A Ta-cup and a Frito Chili Pie. The Ta-cup was an open-faced taco housed in a fried corn tortilla. Both items were early favorites at Casa de Fritos, so their descendant is likely to be a big hit. 

Mocha Cream Puff  

Find it at: Rancho Del Zocalo Restaurante in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Cream puff filled with cinnamon-mocha pastry cream topped with chocolate-covered corn chips. 

Yes, we said chocolate-covered corn chips. Using the classic corn chip as a topping on a sweet dessert offers the right amount of sweet and savory flavor combo that will have guests trying to remember the last time they had something this good. 

Tropical Nods to Tahitian Terrace  

In 1962, the Tahitian Terrace opened in Adventureland, offering the live entertainment of the Royal Tahitian Dancers and a menu inspired by the flavors of the South Seas.  

Guests who visited the park in those days might remember visiting until midnight, peering over a menu at a parting curtain of water or a fire dancer nearby. To remember this literal hot spot, let’s dance over to Carnation Café and Bengal Barbecue for a couple of new delights. 

Tropical Rum Cocktail  

Find it at: Carnation Café in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Bacardi Superior Rum, Myers’s Rum Original Dark, Pineapple, Orange & Lime Juices, and Grenadine. 

Guests can raise a glass to Tahitian Terrace with the bright tropical flavors of this classic drink that may remind them of past vacations in the sun, palms swaying in the breeze, cocktail in hand.  

Grilled Tahitian Ribs   

Find it at: Bengal Barbecue in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Ribs served with white rice and pineapple slaw. 

Succulent ribs with pineapple and rice appeared on the original Tahitian Terrace menu, and we’re so glad to see the modern version at Bengal Barbecue.  

Nostalgic Carnation Inspirations  

Carnation Ice Cream Parlor opened on July 17, 1955, complete with an ice cream counter where guests could try the latest creamy cool treats right on Main Street, U.S.A. Today, guests can experience a few callbacks to their favorites, both savory and sweet.

Beef Stroganoff  

Find it at: Carnation Café in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Braised Beef, Bacon, Onions, and Mushrooms over Egg Noodles. 

A delectable Beef Stroganoff was offered on the Carnation Café menu in the 1990s. Guests with rad memories of this savory mountain of pasta and beef and Darkwing Duck may want to give this latest version a try.  

Banana Split  

Find it at: Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlor in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry ice creams topped with strawberries, pineapple, hot fudge, fresh banana, chopped nuts, whipped cream, and a cherry. 

The Victorian Banana Split was a favorite at Carnation Ice Cream Parlor in Disneyland Park beginning in 1955. Consulting the original Carnation Ice Cream Parlor menu, which can be found today at the Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlor hosted by Dreyer’s, reveals this banana split is so very close to the original, making it the perfect sugary treat to transport guests to another time. 

Banana Split Churro  

Find it at: Churros near Goofy’s Sky School in Disney California Adventure Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Classic churro rolled in cocoa powder with banana and strawberry sauces garnished with whipped topping, crushed peanuts, and a cherry. 

The latest in-carnation of the Victorian banana split, this modern treat takes the banana split to new heights and to the churro-lovers out there. If guests are looking for their next churro to check off the list, this is certainly the most ap-peeling. 

Party Like it’s 1955  

The foodie landscape at the park in 1955 played on the adventurous spirit of guests and pirates alike.  

With so many new foodie inventions in the past 70 years, Disney chefs enjoyed taking a look back and recreating some of those mid-century recipes. Here are a couple of bites that harken back to that first summer at Disneyland.  

Hook’s Galley Tuna Melt  

Find it at: Red Rose Taverne in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Fresh tuna salad topped with Muenster and herb-marinated tomatoes served with house chips. 

In August 1955, shortly after Disneyland opened, the Chicken of the Sea Pirate Ship and Restaurant in Fantasyland offered tuna sandwiches. Guests could enjoy both photo opportunities at the ship’s wheel and sandwich oppor-tuna-ties inside. Chicken of the Sea Pirate Ship and Restaurant became Captain Hook’s Galley in 1969 (and later closed in 1982). Today, guests can savor their own swashbuckling dreams and this delicious take on the classic sandwich. 

Apple Pancake Rolls  

Find it at: River Belle Terrace in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Apple pie topping, walnut streusel, and cinnamon Chantilly cream served with choice of bacon or sausage. 

Pancake roll-ups were a staple on the Pancake House menu when it opened in August of 1955. Strawberry and blueberry pancakes are also available as a variation of an original item sold at the Pancake House. The Apple Pancake Rolls served today are a close double to those that guests snacked on nearly 70 years ago. 

More Retro Treats Inspired by Eats from Decades Past

In the totally tubular 1980s, Disneyland opened Videopolis in Fantasyland and proved even Mouseketeers could moonwalk.  

With giant video screens that played the latest music videos and a huge dance floor, it was the place to boogie down before fueling up with futuristic round fries at The Space Place restaurant in Tomorrowland or grabbing a burger in Frontierland.  

Here’s a few more most-righteous modernized must-eats that will take guests back.  

Dancing Shimmering Lights  

Find it at: Troubadour Tavern in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Sweet berry lemonade with blackberry topper and colorful sanding sugar. 

This vivid concoction was inspired by Videopolis, that radical high-tech area guests were able to dance the night away in the 1980s and 1990s. With each sip, guests can reflect on their dance moves and hair choices to see if they've made any improvement over the years. 

Space Place Cottage Fries   

Find it at: Galactic Grill in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Fries tossed in Parmesan butter and parsley served with house-made ranch. 

These Cottage Fries take us back to The Space Place restaurant in Tomorrowland from 1977 to 1996 where they were served as a futuristic side dish. Wait — if Cottage Fries are coming back in 2025, now soaring to entrée status… that means Tomorrowland’s vision of the future was right all along! 

Cowboy Fries  

Find it at: The Golden Horseshoe in Disneyland Park 

Vintage-Inspired Flavors: Fries, nacho cheese, sautéed ground beef, burger sauce, and butter pickles. 

Frontierland restaurants used to offer hamburgers in the 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s, so to tip our cowboy hats to those burgers of the past, we topped fries with all the goodness of a burger, without the bun.  

Did any of these modern takes on past recipes feel nostalgic? Guests can try them for a limited time during the Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration, and check our complete Foodie Guide for even more 70th anniversary bites.

New Menu Items to Wow Your Senses

Chefs at Disney Springs spent the past year creating so many unique appetizers, entrees and desserts that guests will definitely need more than one visit to enjoy them all. Keep an eye out for the upcoming foodie guide because we can say with the firmness of a proper meringue that guests' appetites will definitely be satisfied.

A Second Chance to Enjoy Returning Favorites

One of the tastiest surprises from last year—the St. Augustine Datil Pepper Fritas—is back for a second round at The Daily Poutine! The crispy pork dish features a datil pepper sauce and Florida hearts of palm slaw. But the beer cheese crafted from Sunshine Stroll Orange Pilsner helps make it truly special. Sunshine Stroll was introduced during Flavors of Florida last year as a Disney Springs exclusive, and our chefs immediately went to work using it in various dishes like this one. Guests will be thrilled this dish is coming back alongside the other creations using the exclusive pilsner this year.

While guests are exploring Disney Springs Flavors of Florida, they can stop by Swirls on the Water for another returning treat—the Orange Bird Cone! This sublime dessert combines DOLE Whip® Orange in an orange cone, topped with sprinkles and a chocolate piece. It’s a delightfully satisfying sweet worthy of featuring the name of a favorite Disney character.

If there’s a flavor that comes from Florida—peppers, citrus fruit, cheeses and more—it will be at Flavors of Florida. Overall, this year’s event will have more than 90 menu items from 45+ Disney Springs restaurants! So, guests can start planning date nights, family outings and celebrations, and we will see them at Disney Springs this summer.
