Progressive Snacking - Parks

[ElizaDoesDisney]

It's Christmas Eve. Or, really, Christmas now. And I can't sleep. So, of course I'm planning and replanning my upcoming Disney trip. I love a good progressive dinner (monorail, Disney Springs, Skyliner, whatever). I'm wondering if instead of doing any ADRs/proper meals on a park day (or evening, stupid work), if I could just graze on snacks - basicall making a meal out of progressive snacking. What snacks would you recommend in each park? Since I'm making the rules, I'll say nothing that requires an ADR, but small plates at a lounge or sides/kids meals/small meals from a QS are fair game. I always prefer something "interesting" - I love me some chicken nuggets and burgers, but I can get those anywhere.

Things currently on my radar are below, but I know there is SO much more:

MK
- Cheeseburger Egg Roll (Egg Roll Cart)
- Spicy Chicken Waffle Sandwich (Sleepy Hollow)
- New England Clam Chowder (Columbia Harbor House)

Epcot
- Croque Glace (L'Artisan de Glace)
- Something from Les Halles (France), Kringla (Norway), or Karamel Kuche (Germany)

DHS
- Alcoholic Root Beer Float (Epic Eats)
- Coffee Rubbed Rib Eye Puff (Baseline Taphouse)
- BLT Sliders (HBD Lounge)
- BBQ Brisket Melt (Woody's)

AK
- Pongu Lumpia (Pongu Pongu)
- Corn with African Spices (Harambe Fruit Market)
- Street Tacos (Smiling Crocodile)
- Pineapple Glazed Pork Belly (Nomad Lounge)

No critique, looks pretty good, so just some info. The cheeseburger egg rolls are extremely greasy, so if that’s something that might bother your stomach (It kills me), you might avoid them. The puffs at Baseline are often not offered, but BL is still a great option. The charcuterie board and the pretzel are must dos for us. The ronto wraps, especially the breakfast ones are really tasty. If you want something a little heartier in AK, the pulled pork mac and cheese at Flame Tree is always really good and enough to share. Egg rolls at Joy of Tea in Epcot are 2 for $5 and are super-tasty. If there’s a festival occurring, we’ve found the vegetarian options are usually delicious. We are APs so have the luxury of being casual and skipping rides we’ve done dozens of times. We love to relax and snack around the parks - can’t wait for the PH restrictions to lift, so we can get more variety into our mornings! Have a great time!

Here is how I would probably do it:

MK: fill the popcorn bucket wile standing in line for rope drop, get an I Lava You float of choice when it opens, early afernoon hush puppies from CHH, an afternoon piece of fruit in Liberty Square, and then grab a sweet treat form the confectionary at the end of the day (the 100th anniversarry rice krispie treat was my go to item, but I am sure I can find something new to enjoy)

Epcot: lobster bisque and a baguette (to gnaw on all day) from Las Halles, and then whatever I feel like from various festical food stands throughout the day

AK: Mr. Kamals, order spicy fries, and repeat throughout the day

In Epcot: get fish and chips in UK pavilion as well as something from Regal Eagle and maple popcorn.

The sleepy hollow chicken waffle is delicious and great value! Had one last week and was enough for lunch.

In AK my vote is for a small plate at Nomad Lounge - with a yummy drink!

maple popcorn.

This one right here is worth a refillable bucket purchase

 

[Mizanne]

This one right here is worth a refillable bucket purchase

I second this.

Also the pongu lumpia was possibly the grossiest thing I had at MK.

This is going to be my method (I'm glad someone added Mr Kamals fries for animals kingdom). I'd add the blueberry mickey waffles from Hollywood scoops (by tot served in the am), I like the totchos at Woody's lunchbox if you're looking for portability. We're staying at Poly so part of my snack will definitely be noodles/postickers from tambu lounge and a dole whip
