One of the famous menu items at Disneyland is the Mint Julep available in New Orleans Square. The drink used to be bright green and full of Creme de Menthe syrup. This was never my favorite to be honest, but they’ve given the drink an […]

The Hungry Bear is set on the Rivers of America and has great outdoor seating. They play relaxing music from Song of the South that puts you in the mood of the land. The decor is understated, just meant to give you the feel of eating outdoors in a park. Given the picnic salad, I decided to take my cue and put together a picnic menu and decor. The tables are round wood with wooden chairs. There are some tables with umbrellas. I included the ability to blend your drink at the table so that it's as blended as possible and a portable container to keep food warm for the Crispy Chicken Sandwiches. Enjoy!
