Changes

The restaurant that is currently known as Monsieur Paul originally opened on June 3, 1984 as Bistro de Paris <ref name= "D23"> https://d23.com/a-to-z/bistro-de-paris/ </ref>. The restaurant's creation stemmed from the immense popularity of the France pavilion's [[Les Chefs de France]] restaurant <ref name= "D23"/>. In order to meet the demand for dining, Disney decided to turn the unused second floor of Chefs de France into a new table service restaurant<ref name= "D23"/>. Bistro de Paris remained essentially unchanged until it closed on July 31, 2012 for refurbishment. During the renovations, the restaurant was given a more modern interior. In December 2012 the restaurant reopened under the new name Monsieur Paul<ref name= "D23"/>. The new dining establishment took its name from head chef Paul Bocuse <ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/monsieur-darque/ </ref>.
