Disney4me Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 A delectably delicious new dish has come to Disney World. The Friar’s Nook The Friar’s Nook — the Robin Hood-themed restaurant in Fantasyland at the Magic Kingdom — is well-known for offering “tasty American cuisine and crowd-pleasing picks.” The eatery just introduced a NEW menu item that fits both those descriptions to a tee and we’re trying it out! The Mac & Cheese Hand Pie is essentially an empanada filled with mac & cheese. And yes, it was as ooey, gooey, delicious as it sounds. You can grab one for $8.99. The Mac & Cheese Hand Pie First off, we have to talk about the fried exterior shell. It was not only delicious but stayed perfectly crunchy. There were no soggy or soft points, even after several minutes. The internal mac and cheese was delicious as well. It had a creamy consistency, and wasn’t at all dry, which was a potential concern of ours with a dish like this. The cheese sauce for dipping was the typical “plastic Disney cheese sauce” that we know and love. However, if you’re not a fan, the hand pie is delicious without it. Gooey The Friar’s Nook has featured several variants of similar hand pies over the years. Currently, the location is also offering a Buffalo chicken hand pie — featuring Buffalo chicken, mozzarella, and blue cheese wrapped in a flaky dough topped with jalapeño-ranch — only during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party events. Buffalo Chicken Hand Pie Overall, we found the mac & cheese hand pie is a unique quick bite offering and twist on the current fried Mac and cheese trend that that we’ll definitely be ordering again.
