Kelli:

I don't know why you did either. What ears you wearing? I'm wearing the Polynesian ears that you surprised me with. Sure did the last time we were at the poly, I think we went to Trader. Sam's surprised me these. They have little, little Maui's as the ears, yes, very, very poly, and they are on topic. Oh, spot on topic, yes, spot on topic, yes.

Chris:

Cool. I surprised you tonight, too. You did. It

Kelli:

Chris:

Stay back, just stay safe. So we had awesome downloads this week, we're just killing it. They're killing it. All the people are killing it. Inglewood, Ohio, population 13,000 in the Dayton Serb suburb, voted the top community in the Dayton metro area. Oh, by somebody I don't know who. Congratulations. Congratulations. I deserve it. I'm sure they do. Didn't you? Did it. Menifee, California, named after a local minor, Luther minofi Wilson. It was settled in the 1800s but didn't incorporate as a city into 2008

Kelli:

bless it. His middle name was Menifee, Menifee, and that's what they decided to go with. Well, what would you call Wilson? Wilson, Wilson California, Lucas California, Luther Luther. Luther California, whatever. I mean, it's like they looked at his name and said, let's pick the worst of the three men of feet California. How do you spell that?

Chris:

M, E, N, I, F, E, E,

Kelli:

that is blessed. He went through his whole life like that, and then they made

Chris:

it. He probably never told anybody ever what his middle name was, and they made the whole town. People were probably like,

Kelli:

What's your middle name? He's like, Michael, that's insane. Oh.

Chris:

Luther passed. I think we all named town after him, but you know, he been telling us his name was Michael all this time. Go. Name it metaphy. Uh, palos hills, Illinois, okay, Southwest suburb of Chicago named after palos de la frontera, Spain.

Kelli:

Oh, wow, fun. There's a reason for that,

Chris:

but we're not gonna get into it. Okay, hear about it. Okay. Porto. Porto. Porto is a coastal you're going to want to know this, okay, Porto is a coastal city in Northwest Portugal, known for its stately bridges and port wine production in the medieval Riverside or Riviera district, narrow cobbled streets wind past merchants houses and cafes. I

Kelli:

know somebody that lives there. Shut up. I do too. I do too. They moved from Charlotte, my friend Mary, Oh,

Chris:

right. Do you know somebody that lives there? It's giving San Sebastian.

Kelli:

Oh, yes, no, the pictures they post, it's absolutely giving San Sebastian. And I'm jelly. Well, then

Chris:

have you? Have you already Googled what? I have a note here to tell you to Google the live area LELO. I'm sure that's not how you pronounce it. No, I haven't. It's advertised as the most beautiful bookstore in the world.

Kelli:

That's lovely. And

Chris:

I've looked at some pictures, yeah, and it's gotta be in the running. That's nice. Gotta be in the running. That's nice.

Kelli:

Yeah, every picture they post looks amazing. You think it's fascinating? Do I think it's her downloaded? Oh, it could be, oh my gosh, Meredith, if it's you, thank you

Chris:

trying to get you there.

Kelli:

It could be, oh my gosh, that's so amazing. But if it's not Meredith, it's not welcome to you too, all the Porto people, I mean, your town looks gorge

Chris:

it does. All right, talk about what's happening on Main Street. Yes. All right. So I had this on on the list for last week, a week or two, and I think you probably rambling, so I can't remember if we talked about this or not, but you know the the new monsters inc land is coming. It's going to take over that old Muppets area and the Signa. Your attraction, there is going to be a simulation of the chamber of doors, the vault of doors that they, you know, and it's like a roller coaster in there, in the movie. Well, this is going to be a roller coaster, I believe, in door. And we effectively get to take that ride right Sully and Boo. What's her name? Boo, yeah, little girl, yeah, Sully and Boo, take through the vault of doors. Okay, the it's gonna be Disney's first suspended roller coaster. You'll be hanging below the track, right? But it's also the first time you will load vertically from the loading platform. So you step into the ride vehicle, and then it's going to lift you vertically, way up into the Yeah, and then take you through into the Okay, fun. That sounds I saw a little animation from the patent, yeah, and it looks

Kelli:

that sounds fun. Looks fun.

Chris:

Looks like a lot of fun. Yeah, I'm sure that it won't freak me out at all to be lifted up off the ground.

Kelli:

Oh no, you love heights. Yep.

Chris:

So the voyage of the Little Mermaid billboard has been removed from the building at Hollywood Studios because the voyage of the Little Mermaid show has been gone a long time, and they're replacing it with the Little Mermaid, a musical adventure, which arrives this summer. So I'm sure that a new billboard is going to go up there pretty soon, but it's a big, white, Stark space now in a in an obvious spot, I think you would notice it now that there's no billboard

Kelli:

there. Yeah, I hope it's black Little Mermaid. You hope so.

Chris:

Okay, well, we'll see. I hope it launches before we get there. I know I'm being really, like, little bit selfish, little selfish, because I want that, that nighttime parade, to get going. I want this to get going. But there'll be there's stuff we missed. It's

Kelli:

fine, honey. It's fine. We've missed we've missed things. Absolutely we have. We shouldn't have to miss these. No, it's not for your 50th That's right, everything you want your

Chris:

people tell somebody honestly that that's why we're you know, that's what's happening. We could get you a button.

Kelli:

We can get a button. Go get you a button. Says it's my 50th birthday

Chris:

and say hey to me, uh huh. And they will me some give me some pixie dust. Easter season will bring the return of the Easter egg displays at Disney resorts. You'll find these, mainly at the Grand Floridian starting this week, March 18, and Disney's yacht and beach clubs and the contemporary both starting April the first and going through the 20th. Okay, so the Grand Floridian usually has the largest displays and there, and it seems to be the most popular for people the specifically, I know that the last time we were there during this time, they had an Alice in Wonderland display. And they had this egg there that I don't know, like, there were little over 5000 little watch gears built into the egg. And it was, but it was like, 3d

Kelli:

Yeah, they don't play with stuff like that. They that

Chris:

was one of the most visually stunning little pieces of art I've ever seen. Of course, these eggs are what they're Can you see this? Can you see this? I think they can. I think it's like the size of the dragon eggs and Game of Thrones. Do you remember those? Do they watch those? Yeah,

Kelli:

that's something. But so then

Chris:

over at the Yacht Club, they've got a Moana display that includes tomatoa, oh, man, that's a cute egg.

Kelli:

That is a cute egg. Do they have the little coconut people?

Chris:

Oh, I don't know. That would be adorable. They would be cute. Yeah, they should. That would be the most adorable

Kelli:

little eggs. If the eggs had little, little hanger.

Chris:

They, you know, they, they showed one that was Mr. Potato Head. And, you know, no, no shade on Miss Potato Head. But that one was kind of basic. That's not a huge

Kelli:

stretch. That's not a huge stretch. Make me a Slinky Dog gag, and then we can talk Potato Heads. Really not. I

Chris:

mean, if you put that one side by side with that Alice in Wonderland egg, right? It's like the intern made this one, right? Yeah, yeah. Sorry, Potato Head, nope. You know, no shade on your anger, guys. So also, this season, we're getting an all new Thumper popcorn bucket. Oh, at Epcot. Available at Epcot starting on March 25 limited two buckets per person per transaction. Now

Kelli:

that is a marginalized bunny. We don't there's not, don't get a lot of thump get a lot of Thumper stuff. That is one marginalized. Has paid marginalized

Chris:

money. Judy Hobbs has sort of taken over the bunny market for Disney. And

Kelli:

I like Judy. I think Judy's crap for Judy. But you know, Thumper was really the OG. Bumper was the OG. And you know, he deserves some props there. Roger is

Chris:

also fairly marginalized. He had a whole thing back at Hollywood Studios back in

Kelli:

the day. Oh yeah, no, Rogers. Rogers. There's known and forgotten. I'm sorry.

Chris:

Well, he's got a little thing still at Hollywood studios, but I'm glad they're bringing back Thumper bumpers getting I like Thumper, as you might imagine. It's a doorbell, of course,

Kelli:

it is absolutely. Does his little foot move? Does he thought?

Chris:

I don't know that's he should. He should. It should be a whole thing. Yeah. Okay, so this is silly, but I'm really, really excited about this. Okay, the Grand Fiesta tour at Mexico has reopened after a fairly lengthy refurb

Kelli:

there. They've refurbed that a lot. I feel like, well,

Chris:

they, they were taking it down a lot for short periods of times, because, like, you know, the Donald Duck animatronic disappeared for a while and came back, and then other things had disappeared, and other things had stopped working. But they, you know, so they really a fair overhaul, and it was down long enough that people thought maybe they're going to do a CoCo thing, right? Ah, but they did not, but they did a legit refurb of this ride, and I am honestly pretty excited to ride it from there's no other reason than pure nostalgia. So get this. Disney food blog actually gave us this bit of news. We normally go blog Mickey all the way. They do a great job. But got this from Disney food blog. So on the screen, and when you're going through the little river there, there are these screens where you actually see live action, yeah, folks, right? Their projections, they've replaced all those projection screens with like digital, like LED type screens, okay? And so the color and everything pops is a lot more vibrant, okay? And just automatically lifts everything in a room where they are, okay, right? So that's one thing that, and that's no small thing. They put in an entirely new sound system, new speakers, and they remade the or they remixed the original soundtrack from when the Ride Opened in 1982 Wow, right? So, so that's all sounds brand new again, because of the new sound there, apparently the sound system is noticeably better, okay? And then at the end of the ride they have these fireworks that shoot off, you know, in the sky, yeah? But for, I don't know, more than a decade, they've not made any sound. But when I was a kid, they made sounds, yeah, exploded. Yeah, right, that the explosions are back. Because this, when they remix the sound, they found the audio files for those fireworks, and I added all that in, so it got a whole true revamp, good, and I'm excited. I'm excited for Donald, right, Grand Fiesta, and all three Caballero and all three

Kelli:

caviar. But you knew that I'm happy for them, but mostly happy for Donald, because he's also a bit of a marginalized duck, really. Yeah, there's not a lot of Donald Murch out there, yeah. And I tell you, I think it's because he's got a little bit of anger

Chris:

issue, an anger meaning a bit of a speech impediment.

Kelli:

I mean, we don't judge him for that, but his anger management problem makes it difficult to be friends with him, like I see him in the valley, and he's constantly throwing fits and stuff. And so I avoid him when I'm knowing that

Chris:

he's okay. If Daisy's okay with him, he's okay.

Kelli:

He's rarely with Daisy in the valley. Hey, listen, he's constantly working her shop, and I cannot figure out how to change the mannequins in there for the life of me. She works her little tail feathers off in that shop. She's always there, and I don't know how to do any of her little boutique challenges. It is stressful. Honestly, it's stressful,

Chris:

but apparently less stressful than hanging out with Donald.

Kelli:

It's yeah, because at least nobody's yelling at me.

Chris:

So we don't talk. I mean, obviously this is a Disney podcast, so we don't talk a lot about Universal Studios and all that jazz. But I could not stop myself from calling out the fact that the new epic universe deal the Isle of Burke, which is the how I how to, how to train a dragon. You love landless I really love Toothless dragon. Just a dragon special? He has me right, right in the fields for looking at his face. And there's a, there's a hiccup and toothless Meet and Greet at Epic universe. That thing looks like I want a pet. I want to, I want to rub my little fingers right down between his eyes. It.

Kelli:

So, yeah, so tell me about you cheating on her

Chris:

real thing there on the cruise ship. All right, you ready? I'm ready. I'm excited to hear

Kelli:

this, so I'm taking this to wailu Bar and Grill at Disney's Polynesian tower. So I'm gonna start by reading you the write up from the Disney website. Okay, okay, settle in for a relaxing culinary experience. This charming new eatery by Lulu Bar and Grill gets its name from the Hawaiian words, why, meaning water and Lulu meaning calm. Fittingly, this charming spot boasts breast take boast breathtaking views of the Seven Seas Lagoon. Enjoy sites inside the restaurant too. The space is adored with dazzling Polynesian inspired artwork, much of which was crafted by recycled materials and reclaimed fishing nets. Oh yeah. So it's really cool. I mean, it's gorgeous to look at, absolutely gorgeous. But one of the things that makes it so cool is it's sort of at the top of Polynesian tower. Okay, so it's up near the top of the tower. Oh, I did not realize, yeah, it's up. That's why it gives the best views. And it's got a Lanai where you can eat. So it's got a lot of exterior seating as well as interior seating. So an open Lanai, and around the edge of the Lanai are these, like half moon booths. Nice and going around the outside of those half moon booths is water. So if you're in one of those booths, you're literally sitting right next to calm water. And you can see the Seven Seas Lagoon, which is also mostly calm water water. It's just gonna be amazing views and really good

Chris:

food, really good food. And and easy going, easy

Kelli:

going. So I will say their appetizers and everything, or standard fare. This is not a fancy restaurant, right? Okay? I mean, the food is cool, but like, this isn't a really expensive restaurant

Chris:

or anything

Kelli:

like this. It's not Cindy's. No, none of that, right? This is, you know, basic. So in the morning, it's grab and go. Oh, to give you an idea, there, you can stop in and get pastries and drinks or what have you. Their lunch and dinner menu is the same. So I'm going to go through some of them. I don't have time to hit all of them, but I'll tell you sort of how many are in each category, and I'll hit the highlight. So the ones you keep seeing on the socials, okay, so the first one is appetizers. They have eight different appetizers. The ones you're gonna see on the socials are the ahi tuna crisps. This is marinated ahi tuna with crispy fried wontons, avocado, crema, Sriracha Aioli and a soy glaze. This is gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, sweet potato hummus, and that's $17 sweet potato hummus is $12 this is crispy chickpeas, espaleta, pepper, dust and bread, fruit, tostones. I'm sure I slaughtered at least half of those words. Okay, but work with me. The next one is musubi. This is glazed spam, crispy rice. Pearls, yes, furry cocky and sriracha, honey.

Chris:

Yes, $12 I'm for it. Oh yeah, you know I love this Hawaiian.

Kelli:

I know you do, honey. I know you do. The next one that you see, mostly on the socials, is the sticky pork ribs. And this is an appetizer. It's $15 salt. It comes with salt cured green cabbage, furry cock, a hickory slaw and pineapple chips.

Chris:

I think sticky ribs, yes, are underrated. Anyway,

Kelli:

these look gorgeous. I know these look absolutely gorgeous. Okay, so that's four of the eight appetizers. Oh, wow, that's just the appetizers. Yeah. Okay. Now main courses. There are 11 different main courses. And again, I couldn't see any difference between the lunch and the dinner menu from a price or a quantity perspective. I was expecting to see like a really nice steak on the dinner menu, and I didn't, okay. Okay, so 11 main courses, they've got sort of little, little, I'm gonna call them categories, so I'm gonna hit a couple. So the first one is short rib loco moco. So again, short ribs and these come with shiitake mushroom gravy, a crispy rice cake and a sunny side up egg right on top. Oh yes, that one is that one you see all over the socials, sure all over that's$33 then they have three different poke bowls. One is an ahi tuna poke bowl. One is grilled teriyaki chicken and one is tofu. So three different poke bowls. The ahi tuna is 26 the other two are 22 okay, all of them have sushi style rice, pickle, cucumbers, vegetables, spicy poke sauce, macadamia nuts, and then your protein of choice, nice. So here's what I'll say with that is it sort of looks like a plate with all of the individual ingredients in. Different little sections. It's gorgeous. It is absolutely gorgeous,

Chris:

but not like a bento box, no,

Kelli:

like they're touching, okay, it's just gorgeous. It's just gorgeous. Okay, then we've got the way finder burger. This is two pressed patties, American cheese, Onion Jam, volcano sauce on a sweet bun served with macaroni salad or sweet potato fries. So

Chris:

on the socials, I saw somebody say that this might be the new best burger at on all of Disney parks,

Kelli:

you would take so much off of that that I don't know if it would still be the same burger, but it's $23 if you want to give it a go. They also have teriyaki chicken sliders, which look really cool. Those come with kimchi slaw, sweet bun on a sweet bun served with mac and cheese mac salad or sweet potato fries, not mac and cheese mac salad. And then we have another group of three, and these are the chow mein salads. So you've got the sauteed shrimp chow mein sab salad, the chicken teriyaki chow mein salad, the grilled tofu chow mein salad. All of these have charred cabbage, Shishito peppers, hearts of palm, pickled sweet potatoes and sunflower butter dressing with your protein of choice. The shrimp is 22 and the other two are 18. So again, these are, you know, average price. That's how much you're paying for an entree in the parks, honestly. So not bad. I have definitely seen some of the marinated pork chop out on the socials, and that comes with smashed potatoes, bacon vinaigrette and kimchi slaw. $31 so again, there's no, like, big steak, right, or whatever, right, right? It's a very light fish base of Asian Hawaii. There's

Chris:

still some pork in there. Yes, right? Yes,

Kelli:

absolutely. So again, 11 and I went through all but one of them. Okay, so you just heard 10? Okay, then we've got three different desserts. One of them is a vanilla creme brulee with macerated berries. You know how I feel about macerated stuff. We don't macerate enough stuff. We don't macerate enough. That's$11 for the creme brulee with the macerated berries, chocolate cake with a salted caramel ganache, coffee infused Chantilly cream. This is also$11 that description does not do this thing justice. This little chocolate cake looks so fragile, it almost looks like, like it's, it's egg based, or something, like it's, it jiggles like it is. It looks so soft like melt in your mouth. Type cake, I cannot stress that enough on top of it that Chantilly cream is like little blobs. Blobs is not a good dollops of Chantilly cream going all around in circles on the top. And I'm not a huge salted caramel fan, but I would hit that like it was my job. That's $11 you can also get the Dole Whip Sunday, which is hibiscus meringue and macerated pineapple and berries. Again, we don't macerate enough. How

Chris:

sweet a macerated pineapple would be? That's only$8

Kelli:

now, they've got eight specialty cocktails. I'm gonna try to get through four of them. The first one's for you, honey. It's the banana old fashioned. This is Mitch turs, single barrel rye whiskey, Tempest fugit spirits, creme day banana, Appleton Estate, eight year reserve rum. Oh yeah, St Elizabeth, all spice DRAM liqueur and Angostura bitters.

Chris:

Yeah, you're right. That's 1750 I look forward to trying it.

Kelli:

This one is also for you. You're going to be excited about this one. This is the coolest strawberry Saki, wild flowers, June my Saki with Campari liqueur, Rocky's botanical liqueur and wild strawberry. That's 1650 historically,

Chris:

because I haven't had the Wildflower Saki, that has been the problem.

Kelli:

I think so too. I still think that's going to be 1650 straight in the strawberry but you know, and spend it if you like. The one I'm going to have is the lily, OK, Kelli Mai Tai. This is tea infused vodka, Jamaican rum, passion fruit, guava lime, almond and philernum for 1650 I'd love a good Mai Tai, and that sounds really cool. They also have a hibiscus Margarita. This is Tara mana, blanco tequila, Sorel liqueur, cinnamon syrup, hibiscus and agave. That's 1750 I'm not gonna have that one because it's got tequila in it. Kelli. So I'm gonna stick with the lily, Oklahoma, Mai Tai, sorry, what was that Lily? Ok? Kelli, Mai Tai, liliu, okalani Mai Tai,

Chris:

I think I can close. That's awesome. I cannot wait. It's

Kelli:

a gorgeous menu. The dishes that I've seen on the socials are beautiful. Everybody talks about how amazing they are. Again, this is, this is an average price restaurant on property. This isn't, you know, a special night out or whatever. And I think they did a really good job with sort of Hawaiian culture food, yeah, with the with all of the seafood and rice and tuna and all that. The lily, you're trying to say, the lily, Oka, no, the Kelli Maitai

Chris:

locomoco, or whatever it's called,

Kelli:

oh, the short the ribs, Yep, yeah, yeah, the short rib locomoko with the shiitake mushroom gravy, crispy rice cake and fried egg for that.

Chris:

Yes, yes, you would that for dinner, the burger for lunch. Yes. Okay, all right, so you know we're doing, we're doing lots of food and drink tonight, as per

Kelli:

use. We're own brand today. It's more

Chris:

than the the average weekend, though, for sure, we're on brand, uh, slant, you folks, Happy St Patrick's Day.

Kelli:

I thought you said cilantro, right there. No slideshow. I've learned that's you've learned Irish. I didn't know that

Chris:

inside cheers or good health. Okay, okay, so, as with so many things, Disney puts on the dog a little bit for St Patrick's Day, not quite to the level that they do for other holidays, but what they do, they do really well, and they do it in the in the places that you would it makes more sense to do, right? Not a lot of St Patrick's Day stuff in the parks, right, but between Disney Springs in Orlando and Downtown Disney in California. That's where you're gonna go to St Patrick's Day, the night away. Okay, okay, although there are a couple of little things. So when we're focused on the Disney World side of the map, the Beaches and Cream Soda Shop at the at, not the Yacht Club, Beach Club. Yep, they have a Mickey's saints Patrick's Day milkshake. Okay? It's a mint milkshake made with chocolate drizzle shamrock sprinkles and a specialty vanilla cupcake, you know, sort of, yeah. They love to do. They love the top of milkshake with a cupcake.

Kelli:

They really do. And they love a good specialty milkshake. They do. Okay,

Chris:

do this thing served in like a mason jar mug. Is it green? It's meant, yeah, so it's kind of green. But they, and they, they put chocolate syrup down the sides of the mug, you know, so that, yeah, get that effect. So, you know, like I did with your drink

Kelli:

tonight, right? Yeah. Right? Yeah, no. Killed that, honey.

Chris:

Okay, that's pretty much it for like, the resorts and stuff. We're gonna go over Disney Springs, though, and have a ball. So Disney Springs is the place to go. Disney Springs is the place to go to celebrate St Patrick's Day first off Raglan Road, doing their mighty St Patrick's Day festival. I almost died there, I know, but, you know, I've, I have made peace with it, because it wasn't Raglan road's fault. I can't it was, it was

Kelli:

really, it was really the dining it was the dining plan. It really was. It's just that that was the end of the day we had. I can't go. I could never go back to Raglan road. I'm going

Chris:

back. I'm going back just to see the singers and the dancers. Okay, but this thing starts like 11 in the morning, wow, four days in a row, and goes okay, well, on to midnight, if not later, that's a good time. Yeah, music all day every you know, Raglan road has music a lot anyway, and they have Irish dancers a lot, but this is, like, take all that and turn it up to 11. This, this festival is a good time and, like, this is, like, there's no reservations at Raglan road on this day. It's all First come first. Wow. Okay, it's, uh, it's, it is. It has become, I believe, a really fun staple at Disney Springs to enjoy Saint Patrick's Day. That sounds like a good time around Raglan Road, yeah. Okay, so also at Disney Springs. Amaretz patisserie, oh, I know. Gosh. I can't believe we walked past that place so many times for so many years. The leprechaun Top Hat petite cake featuring an Irish toffee cake, butterscotch whiskey ganache, dark chocolate mousse and caramel crispy pearls.

Kelli:

Gosh, I love a mousse and some crispy pearls. I mean, why don't they just go ahead and macerate something? I mean, that would be my dessert.

Chris:

And it all you mean, you can imagine this looks like a little leprechauns top hat. Course, it's just

Kelli:

and it probably tastes like heaven. Of course, a leprechaun Top Hat tastes like heaven.

Chris:

Okay. Ever glazed is doing a a luck of the Irish donut and a lucky charm cold to brew?

Kelli:

Oh, now they love to put some cereal in a cold Everglades, does they

Chris:

do? I'm for the donut is a vanilla iced and dipped in, is vanilla iced and dipped in green shamrock candies and topped with Lucky Charms and Sour Patch Kid crumbles. Sour Patch Kid crumbles and a gummy rainbow strip and a vanilla buttercream and a chocolate gold coin. That's a lot going on there. That's a donut.

Kelli:

That's a lot on there. Busy, busy donut. I was visualizing it as I went. You lost me there. I mean, right around the gummy rainbow strip, the gummy rainbow strip that doesn't or the Sour Patch gum crumbles. There's a lot going on in that donut. That's just

Chris:

a donut, okay? Everglades up there. They're cold brew, which is Irish cream, cold brew, oat milk and toasted marshmallow, cold foam. Polite pig is making their Irish made cocktail. This is tealing, Irish whiskey, Saint Germain, elderflower liqueur, fresh lemon juice and cucumber syrup. Oh, check into perfection. Sour on them with the

Kelli:

I'm not sure about the lemon, the lemon and the cucumber syrup. I hear you, okay, either. I'm questioning that beverage there. Well, let's hop over to the ganache tree where, gosh, I mean, they just print money. What kind of money are they printing on St Patrick's Day? So they've

Chris:

got the Mickey St Patrick's Day pinata. This is a dark chocolate pinata filled with mint marshmallows. Of course it is. But they're really bringing it with the iris whiskey ganache square and the Shamrock ganache square. The Irish whiskey is an Irish whiskey ganache covered in dark chocolate, and the Shamrock is an Irish cream whiskey ganache covered in milk chocolate. It's got a little chocolate Shamrock, of course. Of course it does. Those little squares are just right, delightful. All right. Most of the Disney Springs Outdoor bars are serving something called the green, gold breeze. This is a Bacardi, silver rum bowls, Blue Curacao liqueur, pineapple juice, minute made, orange juice, lime juice and a candy garnish. Oh, that sounds sickly sweet, very sweet and maybe a little bit sour. Dockside margaritas, though, okay, is serving an Irish whiskey Margarita, Jamison Irish whiskey, Grand Marnier liqueur, lime juice and sweet and sour garnish with a lime wedge. Okay, I think that'd be interesting. I'd give it a go. Has no tequila, tequila, Jameson Irish whiskey, yeah, I'd give that a go. Yeah, and Jack Lindsay's, who I love. Jack Lindsay's hanger bar has a drink called the pot of gold. Also, James Iris whiskey, Jameson Irish whiskey, lemon juice, honey syrup and a shimmer with with a garnish. So it's got, like, a looks like a little golden sugar rim. Oh, that's cute. Yeah, yeah, this one sounds good. Irish whiskey, lemon juice and honey syrup. All day, all day. I do that for sure. Okay, for sure. Disneyland mostly drinks, mostly drinks. Yes, mostly drinks, yeah, and mostly drinks. Here at Oh, that's not true. At Disney Disneyland, they've got a few candies and stuff. So at the trolley treats at Disney California Adventure, or the Marceline confectionery at Downtown Disney, you can get St Patrick's Mickey apple. That's a Granny Smith apple dipped in caramel marshmallow ears and robed in milk chocolate, colored white chocolate and a green top hat. So it's a Mickey with a top hat. That's cute, yeah, for sure. Okay, got the pot of gold apple. It's another Granny Smith dipped in caramel. This one's dipped in dark chocolate and embellished in yellow white chocolate and a gold candy coated milk chocolates, a rainbow sour belt and green chocolate, the

Kelli:

rainbow, the rainbow belt. Things are in apparently,

Chris:

yeah, well, for St Patrick's Day, you know, it's an easy way to do, you know, pot of gold rainbow.

Kelli:

Yeah, no, I know, yeah,

Chris:

chase the rainbow. That's Skittles. That is Skittles, a shamrock crispy. This is what you've seen these a lot, the Shamrock shaped Rice Krispie treats on a stick dipped in green and white chocolate decorated with a yellow Mickey on it. And then they have the mint chocolate cookie marshmallow wand.

Kelli:

Chocolate cookie Marsh marshmallow wand. Wow. Gosh. Okay, like

Chris:

shamrock shaped crispies dipped in, oh, no, I got this wrong shoot. I copied the wrong

Kelli:

deal there. Mint chocolate, cookie, Marshmallow wine. I know what the marshmallow ones

Chris:

look like. The same thing. It's green and white chocolate decorated with a yellow Mickey. Okay, yeah, I got the, I got the descriptions mixed up there. That's fun, okay? Ralph Brennan's jazz kitchen. This is at Downtown Disney. This is the best thing on the whole list, okay, mint chocolate chip glazed beignets.

Kelli:

Mint Chocolate Chip glazed beignet, yeah, yeah, those sound lovely.

Chris:

So effectively, what this is is a beignet. It's glazed, like a Krispy Kreme donut. You don't see that. You normally see them like powdered sugar maybe,

Kelli:

yeah, but the glazing is underrated, yeah, just like macerating. It's underrated. So

Chris:

these are glazed beignets. I think that's a I think it's a game changer. It's good. And they had some, like, little green dust on them, sugar dust and some mint chocolate chips scattered. Rubbish. Okay, wow, some something little savory. Here at the UVA bar and cafe in Downtown Disney, you got the corned beef and cabbage burger. This is an Angus beef patty resting on a bed of braised cabbage topped with Swiss cheese sliced corned beef whole grain mustard on a brioche bun

Kelli:

served with garlic fries. Wow, lot going on there.

Chris:

And then you got the Irish nachos, french fries topped with corned beef, Guinness, beer cheese, Pico de Gallo and a spicy

Kelli:

Kelli. I would say it. I think Disney million does a better job with food.

Chris:

I think they do too. I mean, we only had three actual No, everything was just about everything was sued. I think they do a better job. Much better job. They've got all the candy apples and things like that. I think we don't call those Irish nachos. I think we call those Irish poutine. Maybe

Kelli:

I don't think the Irish would be okay with you calling it poutine. That's very Canadian. Well, I call it Irish nachos. I mean, they call french fries chips, don't that's true, just like the breads, yes, okay,

Chris:

I don't think we'd like it into the Brits either. Oh,
