Happy holidays from the West Coast. Yep, we’re in Disneyland, and we’ve been enjoying EVERYTHING the holiday season has to offer.
We’ve had our first ICONIC Candy Cane of the season. We’ve been enjoying the Disney California Adventure Festival of Holidays. We’ve even been able to see the Pixar Place Hotel decorated for the holidays for the very first time! We LOVE this time of year. We’re also making our way through the TONS of new snacks and drinks that have arrived in Disneyland (y’all — it is SO much FOOD) and we’ve got some more reviews of some of those new eats and drinks to share with you. So let’s get to nomming!
Okay, we’re headed to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge first to visit Ronto Roasters…AGAIN (seriously, we can’t get enough of those Ronto Wraps) to try out a brand NEW wrap. The Pijali Wrap is made with Mortadella Ham, Capicola, Whipped Burrata, and Pistachio Pesto, all wrapped up in a Pita for $14.49. This is a great option if you’re looking for a fresher and healthier meal in the parks.
The capicola has a touch of spice to it, but it’s not too strong, while the mortadella ham had a smokey flavor. We also liked the fresh and herby taste we got from the pesto, but we have to admit, we didn’t taste the pistachio in it. The whipped burrata is light and adds a nice creamy texture to the whole.
Our only gripe is that we weren’t fans of the pita (this would’ve worked better in a wrap, we think), but that’s what you get at Ronto Wraps, so we get it.
Okay, so we were REALLY excited to visit Tropical Hideaway to try the Pineapple-Orange-Guava Tropical Float for $9.29. This is Dole Whip Strawberry and Mango Swirl, topped with Tropical Fruit. Um…first off, this is the prettiest float we’ve ever seen. We’re also happy to report that it tastes as good as it looks!
The main flavors we get are strawberry and mango, although you get a hint of the pineapple flavor from the POG combination. We didn’t really get much of the orange or guava, though. However, everything kind of just blended together, so the flavors created a nice mix of fresh and tropical fruits. The toppings, though, may look good, but the strawberries tasted like they were frozen, rather than fresh. However, that wasn’t a deal-breaker for us.
Then it was time to get outrageous because Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs has a Pulled Pork Mac & Cheese Corn Dog. No, REALLY. This is a Cheddar, Pepper Jack & Mozzarella Mac & Cheese with Hickory Smoked Pulled Pork Corn Dog fried in Cornmeal Batter and Panko Bread Crumbs and Drizzled with Homemade Blue Ribbon Garlic Sauce & Barbecue Sauce for $15.
It’s served with chips, and YES, it is a lot. Also, that might sound messy, and we can confirm…IT IS SO MESSY.
We’ll admit that turned us off right off the bat, but there also wasn’t much pulled pork, so most of the barbecue flavor came from the sauce slathered on the top (it’s a bit much). We did get hints of the garlic sauce, but that barbecue sauce just overpowered it. The pepper jack added a touch of heat, but that’s about it. The cornmeal was soft and doughy, like it hadn’t been cooked long enough. If you want to get a photo for social media of an over-the-top corn dog, that’s might be the only reason to order this.
We’ll keep trying even more new snacks we find in Disneyland, so stay tuned to DFB for more.
