Trying the new Meatloaf at Plaza Inn. $18.49. Seems with this and the Salmon they want to introduce some sub-$20 options. Chicken still available for $21.99.
Pot Roast is on the digital menu, but nowhere to be found inside.

A new sales page and notification for upgrading day tickets has appeared in the Disneyland app for Magic Key passes.

Looks like "Disney Genie" is getting rebranded to "My Plans - Recommended for You".

Checked out Beak & Barrel. It's...fine.
