Hello, DFB Readers!

As you may have seen, the holidays have landed at Disney World, and we are up to our ears in holiday decorations, merchandise, and snacks! But while we’re checking out all the new holiday offerings, we’re also keeping an eye on menus at Disney World restaurants because that’s what we do!

And we do have some menu updates to share with you this week, so let’s get to it!

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

The Hollywood Brown Derby

We haven’t made it a secret that we LOVE eating at The Hollywood Brown Derby, so we get a little nervous when we see menu changes there. But this one isn’t TOO serious: The Seafood Scallops are now served with Smoked Chipotle-glazed Pork Belly, Tomato Jam, Pea Tendrils.

That’s it. That’s the update. Whew!

The Hollywood Brown Derby Lounge

We do have some price increases to report (sorry!) at The Hollywood Brown Derby Lounge, though. Here’s what’s changed:

• Shrimp Cocktail increased from $14 to $15
• Hollywood Manhattan increased from $16 to $17

Again, though, these are the only changes. And yes, we love that lounge, too!

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Restaurantosaurus

Restaurantosaurus has added a kid’s option to its menu: Grilled Chicken Strips.

These strips include a Sand Pail and Shovel served with a choice of two sides and a choice of Small Lowfat Milk or Small DASANI Bottled Water. Meets Disney Nutrition Guidelines for Complete Meals without substitutions for $9.49.

Here’s Why Restaurantosaurus is Perfect For a Quick, Easy, No Frills Meal at Disney World

EPCOT

Monsieur Paul

There’s something strange going on with the menu at Monsieur Paul, a restaurant that has remained close since Disney World’s reopening. For a while, Disney World’s website had a menu link on Monsieur Paul’s restaurant that actually linked to the La Crêperie de Paris menu. But now, the link leads to Monsieur Paul’s menu, but it’s pretty bare right now. EVERY a la carte menu item is now gone.

In its place? A single pre-fixe menu called Gastronomic Meal of the French for $175! Here’s what that meal includes:

• Cocktail Maison et Amuse-bouche — Amuse-bouche served with Monsieur Paul’s Cocktail
• Choice of First Course — Oxtail Broth with Braised Beef, Vegetables, and Black Winter Truffles covered in Puff Pasty or Poached Lobster served chilled over vegetables
• Choice of Second Course — Red Snapper in Potato “Scales,” Rosemary Sauce or Seared Scallops Bouillabaisse style
• Granite du Beaujolais — Beaujolais Sorbet
• Choice of Third Course — Beef Tenderloin, layered Potatoes and Bordelaise sauce or Chicken, Morel Cream Sauce, Spinach and Vegetables
• Fromages — French Artisan Cheeses
• Choice of Dessert — Meringue, Vanilla Ice Cream, Raspberry Sorbet, Vanilla Chantilly and Raspberry Coulis or Chocolate Almond Cake, Chocolate Cream, Hazelnut Biscuit, Chocolate Ice Cream, warm Chocolate & Cognac sauce

Disney World has not announced an official opening date for Monsieur Paul, but we’ll let you know when we get more details!
