Get ready to be hungry! On this episode of Daps Magic – Disney and Positive Stuff, Mr. Daps is joined by Kellie from We Don’t Wear Ears for a delicious deep-dive into the newest culinary additions in the Downtown Disney District. Together, they celebrate the official opening of Earl of Sandwich’s permanent home and review Gordon Ramsay at The Carnaby!

Before diving into the food, Kellie shares her Disney origin story—from visiting Disneyland as a six-week-old baby and getting her first $122 pass in college, to launching her social media platform during the 2021 park closures and reaching over 100,000 followers. She also explains the fun story behind the name We Don’t Wear Ears, reflects on the heartwarming human connections that make Disneyland so special, and shares what’s next as We Don’t Wear Ears expands onto YouTube!

Then, the duo jumps into all things food! They explore the new Carvery setup at Earl of Sandwich, evaluate the pastrami and holiday turkey sandwiches, rate the surprisingly good mac and cheese, and debate whether Earl’s oversized cookies (including the Cinnamon Toast Crunch and M&M cookies) might actually be the single best cookie on Disneyland Resort property.

Finally, Kellie and Mr. Daps head upstairs to review Gordon Ramsay at The Carnaby! From jaw-dropping immersive decor and Carthay Circle-level vibes to standby favorites like the $68 shareable Prime Rib, Crispy Salt & Pepper Squid, high-heat Chicken Wings, and Sticky Toffee Pudding, they discuss how this elevated-yet-accessible spot fits into the evolving landscape of Downtown Disney. To wrap up the show, Kellie takes on the Fast Five round, revealing her favorite character, top Disney park, go-to elevator music loop, and ultimate sidekick!
