Gordon Ramsay Visits Disneyland as Construction of Carnaby Tavern Continues
If you’ve been reading along here at MickeyBlog, you know that we’ve been closely following the ongoing transformation of Disneyland’s Downtown Disney District.
Over the past several months, we’ve seen numerous changes take place across the shopping and dining district, including the opening of Cathy’s Cookies, the demolition of the former temporary Earl of Sandwich location, and construction beginning on the future home of Porto’s Bakery.
And then, of course, there’s Gordon Ramsay at The Carnaby.

Originally announced last year, The Carnaby will offer diners a Gordon Ramsay spin on classic British fare.

Needless to say, fans are excited.

All three were all smiles for the picture.

While Disneyland has not yet announced an official opening date for The Carnaby, the restaurant is expected to welcome its first diners later this year.
