Tokyo Disneyland: Food Edition

There are many delicious snacks, meals, and desserts to be had at Tokyo Disneyland! Michelle did some research, made a list, and here’s what we tried!

After we rode Pooh’s Hunny Hunt in Fantasyland, we bought honey popcorn from the cart directly across from the ride. The popcorn was fresh, with a sweet, almost crispy honey coating. It was fantastic! Even if you don’t ride Pooh’s Hunny Hunt (though you definitely should!), you should try it. Flavored popcorn is a hugely popular treat at both parks at Tokyo Disney Resort, and some flavors even come and go. Other flavors we remember seeing at this park were salt, soy sauce and butter, caramel, and curry. Michelle also read that they have barbeque-flavored popcorn. If she had seen that, she definitely would have tried it! We did not try any other flavors at Disneyland (since most were also available at DisneySea).

On one visit, we went to Camp Woodchuck Kitchen in Westernland for lunch. It’s located to the right of Big Thunder Mountain and to the left of the Rivers of America. This counter service restaurant serves waffle sandwiches, and you could get a special Camp Woodchuck lunchbox for a little extra money (the lunchbox is the sole reason we ate here). Michelle ordered the fried chicken waffle sandwich with maple sauce, and Taylor got the spicy shrimp and avocado waffle sandwich. We also got french fries. Michelle was sadly not very impressed with her sandwich. The chicken itself was your typical fast food chicken; clearly Michelle let her expectations and her desire for that cute lunch box run away from her. Taylor thought his was fine.

One of our favorite spots for food in Disneyland is China Voyager in Adventureland. Michelle got the Black Pepper Pork Tonkotsu Ramen, and Taylor got the Spicy Miso Ramen. Both of these were very good! The black pepper pork was especially good; it had some fatty areas, but the meat was very tender, and the edges had a very nice peppery kick. The mango Donald Duck pudding dessert was also really delicious! This restaurant was counter service (i.e. you order and get your food at the counter, then go seat yourselves), and the outdoor seating area had a really nice view of a little dock area. We highly recommend this spot!

Toontown is famous for its pizza spring rolls from Mickey’s Trailer. These were fantastic! Gooey cheese and tomato sauce inside a crispy shell made for a really nice snack. We got the egg and shrimp roll, as well, but that definitely wasn’t as good as the pizza roll. We also tried the long naan with meat sauce from Toontown Treats. While not a stand-out item, it was a nice, filling, warm snack for a chilly day at the park.

We had a few dessert-type snacks while we visited. We got the Lilo and Stitch-inspired Scrump Dumplings from the Space Place Food Port at the border between Tomorrowland and Fantasyland. These dumplings are made of mochi (soft rice gelatin) filled with custard cream, and they come with banana, purple sweet potato, and mango fillings. These little treats were so cute, and they came with a little plastic skewer designed to look like Scrump’s scraggly hair. They were pretty good, but their cuteness factor outshines their flavor. We also tried the Star Wars stormtrooper mochi. The flavors inside are chocolate cream, berry cream, and milk caramel cream. These were pretty good!

At Squeezer’s Tropical Juice Bar in Adventureland, we purchased a mango soft serve cone as well as a tapioca mango drink. The drink was okay, but the mango soft serve was amazing! This may be blasphemous, but Michelle thinks it made up for the fact that there’s no Dole Whip at Tokyo Disneyland.

We also tried the Minnie Mouse Peach and Raspberry Ice Bar. It was a nice way to cool off when the day got hot. Next time, as long as it’s hot out, we’ll try the Mickey Mouse Tropical Ice Bar.
