About the book
This colorful compendium is dedicated "to our guests, without whose requests this book would not exist." Since menus frequently change, not all recipes are available in the restaurants at all times, but all the included recipes were supplied by Disney chefs in 1987. The index can be searched by recipe or by restaurant.
