    Pull up a chair Happy Platers!

    On today’s show, we are going to take a step back in time and look at the history of dining in Disneyland with a focus on one particularly swashbuckling eatery, Blue Bayou.

    This immersive dining experience opened on March 18, 1967, and was the first restaurant ever to be built inside a ride attraction anywhere in the world.

    Do you wish there was a Blue Bayou in other Disney Parks?
