Disney4me Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 This week in What’s New, we’ve visited Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Epcot, and Disney Springs — and now it’s time to journey to the Magic Kingdom! We’ve got a few menu updates, some terrific merchandise, and a few extras! Jump on board our magic carpet, and let’s goooooo! Main Street, U.S.A., Train Station Magic Kingdom Menus & Eats First up, we already reported this news, but it bears repeating: two more table service locations in the Magic Kingdom are now serving alcohol! Crystal Palace and The Plaza Restaurant now offer beer, wine, and specialty cocktails. This is likely in response to the updated 2018 Disney Dining Plan, which includes alcoholic beverages for those guests 21-and-up. The Plaza Restaurant Beer, Wine, and Cocktail Menu We also couldn’t wait to share the fun new attraction-themed Coca-Cola bottles available now in the Magic Kingdom (and in Disneyland Resort!)! Magic Kingdom Coca-Cola Bottles! On Main Street, U.S.A., Plaza Ice Cream Parlor’s featured flavor is now Birthday Cake! Plaza Ice Cream Parlor Featured Flavor Get your cone Mickey-fied with two round chocolate pieces! Mickey-fied Birthday Cake Cone Over in Tomorrowland, the Lunching Pad has removed Salted Caramel Pretzels. Bummer! Since this location varies its pretzels regularly, we’re hoping this means the cream cheese pretzel will return! We’ll keep an eye on it for you! Lunching Pad Menu Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies is jumping on the Millennial Pink trend with a Millennial Pink Milkshake! This strawberry milkshake is topped with pink cotton candy and a house-made Mickey marshmallow! (We’re in for the marshmallow alone!) Auntie Gravity’s Millennial Pink Milkshake Auntie’s also serving up S’mores! (It’s no The Ganachery S’more, but it’s sugary and portable.) You’ve seen us review these s’mores in several other locations — read our review of them from Herbie’s (remember Herbie’s?!??!) here. Auntie Gravity’s S’mores S’mores — Cross Section Pinocchio Village Haus is featuring a new flatbread for May, topped with Salsa, Queso (!), and Taco Meat with Lettuce, Pico de Gallo, and Sour Cream. Pinocchio Village Haus Featured Flatbread for May And there are lots of changes to the accompaniments on the dinner menu at Be Our Guest Restaurant! The Grilled Strip Steak now comes with Truffle Pommes Frites and Green Bean Jardiniere, the Pan-Seared Chicken Breast comes with Roasted Baby Squash, Braised Leeks, Confit Baby Fennel, Heirloom Tomatoes, and Mustard Laced Citrus Beurre Blanc, the Roasted Pork Tenderloin now comes with Crispy Perkshire Pork Belly, Carmelized Cipollini Onions, Asparagus, Watercress Puree, and Bacon Dust (what?!), and the Roasted Lamb now comes with Spiced Carrot Puree, English Peas, Buttery Sunchokes, Charred Belgium Endive, and Lamb Demi-Glace. Be Our Guest Menu Updates Don’t forget that Be Our Guest dinner menu will transform into a Disney Dining Plan 2-credit prix-fixe meal starting July 27! In allergen-free cookie news, over at Liberty Market we found Enjoy Life Chocolate Chip Cookies in a new configuration. They used to come two large cookies to a pack, and they’re now several small cookies to a pack. New Enjoy Life Cookies in Liberty Market Magic Kingdom Extras We’ve come to expect some cool extras at the Disney Parks, and while the Main Street Confectionery’s Chef of the Day isn’t new, it’s fun and worth a mention! Main Street Confectionery Chef of the Day A kid or two (occasionally an adult!) are selected to be the Chefs of the Day and get to create their very own Mickey Krispie Treat right in the middle of the shop! Toppings on this day included milk chocolate for dipping or drizzling and lots of M&Ms! Chef of the Day Krispie Treat Creation Oh, and be on the look out for Big Al in Frontierland! Big Al moseying around Frontierland Magic Kingdom Merchandise There’s a lot of awesome new Magic Kingdom merchandise this week, including new You Are Here Starbucks mugs! We gave you a peek at these recently but they’re totally worth another glance. So fun! Magic Kingdom You Are Here Mugs In other mug news, retro Disney cartoon fans will love these Talespin and Darkwing Duck mugs! We found these at Main Street Confectionery.
