    "Crossroads at House of Blues" Debuts at Downtown Disney Anaheim

    It's been a staple in the Downtown Disney restaurant scene for some time now, and now the House of Blues has some new fare to offer guests. Earlier this week, a menu designed by celebrity chef Aaron Sanchez called "Crossroads at House of Blues" debuted.

    The addition to the House of Blues' menu takes some inspiration from all parts of the world and offers new dishes like shrimp and grits, chile braised short ribs, hand stretched grilled flatbeds and street tacos. The new items appear along side updated restaurant signature dishes and old favorites.

    How Toontown's Closing Will Affect Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party

    Guests who are heading out to this year's Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party at the Magic Kingdom can expect a few changes thanks to the closing of Mickey's Toontown Fair.

    Most of the changes appear to center around the location of certain characters. Frontierland will take on some of the costume-clad characters, including Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Frontierland will also be the site of Br'er Rabbit's Candy Patch, the newly moved and reimagined Treat Trail that could be found in Toontown.

    A Bit of Magic Kingdom Food News

    For all of you WDW foodies out there, here is some news for you! It looks like there are a few new menu items to be had in the Magic Kingdom, including a Mickey pretzel.

    Turns out, the pretzel is already popular at Disneyland and is being tested out at the Magic Kingdom. If you'd like to give the snack a try, head over to the Frontierland Pretzel Wagon (look for it between the Pecos Bill Cafe and the Diamond Horseshoe); at present, this is the only location within WDW to sell this iconic treat.

    Animal Kingdom Family Welcomes Baby Elephant

    Heading to Disney's Animal Kingdom in the future? Keep your eyes peeled for the newest member of the park's elephant family. A new male calf was born into the herd on August 24.

    The male elephant's birth is the sixth to occur at the Animal Kingdom. He weighs in at 311 pounds and joins a seven-year-old big sister Kianga and their mother Vasha.

    The baby is a result of the artificial insemination of Vasha in October 2009. It's reported that Vasha received "excellent pre-natal care" that included monitoring around the clock since early August.

    Currently, the baby remains unnamed.

    Movie Buzz: A New Cinderella?

    There's no doubt that Snow White is the princess of choice these days with no less than three films in the works. Disney, however, might be giving an update to another classic princess: Cinderella.

    It appears Disney has already purchased a script for a live action movie about the servant-turned-princess. Written by The Devil Wears Prada's Aline Brosh McKenna, Disney is said to have paid $7 million for the script.

    Beware of Pizza Scam at Disney

    Visiting Mickey and friends in Orlando any time soon? You might want to skip that pizza after a long day at the parks - especially if it's offered from a flyer.

    It appears some identity thieves are out to grab your credit card info by slipping phony pizza advertisements under hotel doors. Instead of ringing up a pizza parlor, the number is straight to someone who's after an identity and not an order.
