Hi, everyone. I’m Midori from MMN’s editorial team.
To celebrate the release of Toy Story 4, Tokyo Disney Resort are currently holding an event titled “Fun Time With Toy Story 4” at Tokyo DisneySea which will run until September 1. Toy Story fans can roll up and enjoy themed food, merchandise and limited-time photos spots.
I visited the park to try out the themed menus being served both in the park and at Disney Ambassador Hotel.
Head on over to the Mexican restaurant Miguel’s El Dorado Cantina at Lose River Delta in Tokyo DisneySea® to find the limited edition food. It’s quite a distance from Toy Story Mania! so keep this in mind if you’re thinking of visiting there beforehand.
I went ahead and ordered the special set at the counter.
Special Plate Set: ¥1,580 (Tax Included)
The special set includes pork cutlet with pancetta cream sauce, sausage on a bone, turmeric rice, mustard dip, and a soft drink. For an extra ¥400 you can get a dessert thrown in there too.
If you look closely you will see that the rice is shaped into Woody’s face, making for an Instagrammable shot. The sausage being on a bone also means you can enjoy chomping it down.
Condensed Milk Mousse & Orange Mango Cream: ¥500 (Tax Included) (*¥400 if you order with the Special Set)
I recommend this dessert whether on its own or with the set. It comes with a cookie of Billy, Goat and Gruff and is topped with strawberries to give it a cute look. The orange and mango cream is refreshing and a perfect summertime dessert.
Strawberry Jelly Melon Soda: ¥400 (Tax Included)
At the same shop you can also order this striking and colourful melon soda. The bottom of the melon soda is packed full of strawberry jelly which taste delicious together.
It also contains pieces of yellow jelly for even more textures. The cup has cute Toy Story illustrations on it.
For an extra ¥500 when ordering a drink you can also get one of these rubber souvenir coasters. These coasters are sold at other shops in the park too with different designs. Check out the official website to see what coasters you can get and where.
Over in the Hyperion Lounge at the Disney Ambassador® Hotel t hey are also serving a special cake set.
Disney Pixar Toy Story 4 Special Cake Set: ¥2,000 / Serving 17:00-22:00 *Limited servings per day
The cake set features an edible Woody and Forky image and mizuame water candy made to look like the moon. It’s combined with pineapple cake and yoghurt mousse to create a delicious dessert. The set comes with a choice of tea or coffee.
Toy Story 4 will be released on July 21, 2019. Celebrate its release with a trip to Tokyo DisneySea this summer.

The Star Festival celebration Tanabata Days is currently underway at Disneyland, but it's already over 30 degrees outside. You'll find yourself all sweaty just by standing up. That's why today we will be introducing you to foods and drinks that will keep you cool and refreshed in this baking heat. A Cute Mickey Biscuit Ice Cream ♡
Head to ICE CREAM CONES at World Bazaar to get your hands on a soft serve ice cream with chocolate (￥500). A wafer cone is filled with delicious soft serve ice cream and then topped with chocolate sauce and bright, colourful chocolate. Finally, a biscuit decorated with Mickey's winky face is placed on top. The shop's interior is decorated with cute pastel colours which make it the perfect spot for a picture, however, a picture with Cinderella's castle in the background is also a grand idea. This is perfect for those of you who are looking for something both refreshing and cute. The ice cream has a rejuvenating flavour and tastes perfect along with the bitter cone. A Refreshing Cold Meal: Beef Salad Udon Noodles This one is recommended for those of you who are hungry but want to eat something cool rather than a burger. If this is you, head to Plazma Ray's Diner at Tomorrowland for their cold beef karubi udon (￥780). Thick cold noodles are served in a delicious soup along with pieces of beef, aubergine, okra and other summer vegetables. It even includes a pink fish paste cake cut into the shape of Mickey's face. You are bound to finish this refreshing meal quickly on a hot summer's day. Perfect for the Peckish : A Sweet Treat The same shop sells a Monsters, Inc-themed Mike sandwich biscuit that is filled with chocolate ganache (￥400). This is the perfect pick-me-up when you're in search of a quick energy boost. Cool chocolate and marshmallows are squished between the two biscuits. Have you noticed the giant eye on the top of the biscuit? You just won't be able to resist taking a photo. When you're slightly peckish, make sure to give it a try! A Moderately Sweet Refreshing Drink This one is for the coffee-lovers. Pop by Café Orléans to pick up the D's Delights Vanilla Smoothie & Coffee Jelly (￥500). Underneath the vanilla smoothie is a layer of coffee jelly. The top of the smoothie is filled with cocoa. We recommend you thoroughly mix the vanilla smoothie and coffee jelly before drinking it. The sweetness of the smoothie and the bitterness of the coffee jelly are a match made in heaven. When you're tired of walking and need something sweet and refreshing, this drink is sure to power you up back to full battery. Fruity Shaved Ice With Actual Fruit Pieces Last but not least is the Shaved Ice (￥400) which is sold at many places including Huey, Dewey and Louie's Good Time Cafe. There are two flavours to choose from; Japanese pear and Japanese orange. The sauce poured all over your ice contains actual pieces of fruit that will bring you right back to life. If you pay an extra ￥400, you can get your shaved ice served in a Toy Story-themed souvenir cup that you can take back home with you. With all the sun and excitement at Disneyland, you could overheat, so please take care and make sure to rejuvenate yourself with something refreshing and delicious!© Disney Information

Over the past few decades, Star Wars has become one of the most beloved properties with fans around the world. Grogu, known by many fans as Baby Yoda, first appeared in The Mandalorian, a series on Disney+ currently celebrating its third anniversary. With his mysterious background and incredible use of the Force, the tiny and adorable character became a hit with fans around the world, quickly making him one of the most popular characters in the recent Star Wars series. World-renowned Japanese animation studio Studio Ghibli recently produced a short animation starring Grogu and Makkuro Kurosuke, also known as the Wandering Soot or, in the title for the short, Dust Bunnies. The characters first appeared in the film My Neighbor Totoro. Studio Ghibli director Hayao Miyazaki and producer Toshio Suzuki have long been friends with Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, who readily agreed to produce the short as a symbol of their longstanding friendship.
