Join us for episode 55 of the Theme Park Trader podcast!
This week we have friend of the show Eleanor joining us to discuss her recent trip to Disneyland Paris. We also chat to her about her work organising the Disney London meet ups and get into quite a large conversation about Disneyland Paris before covering off a couple of news stories from the past week.
This weeks news we discuss:
Opening of Red Rose Taverne
We chat through the opening of the Red Rose Taverne at Disneyland and talk about the menu and why perhaps we were expecting a bit more from it. We also chat through the Grey Stuff and why it’s not so delicious (though in fairness the Disneyland version looks to be much improved).
How Does Pandora – The World of Avatar Fit With Animal Kingdom’s Values?
Dan, Eleanor and I chat through Imagineer Joe Rohde’s video from last week on how Disney are working to ensure Pandora fits in with the core value that Disney’s Animal Kingdom holds dear.
Check out the video below:
We end this weeks podcast by reading another set of poor reviews of great theme park attractions. This week as Eleanor is on the show we thought we would tackle the entire Disneyland Park at Disneyland Paris. Of course, the usual laughs and ripping apart the reviews happen however there are so many reviews that we will likely revisit the Disneyland Park again in the future!
Be sure to follow our guest Eleanor over on Twitter.

Ryan has been attending theme parks since as long as he can remember and his first proper memory comes from when he was just three years old sitting in Main Street USA drinking a Nesquik milkshake from a carton while the piano was being played outside Casey’s Corner.
