Transcript:
Hello, out there, Disney fam! Welcome to another episode of Super Califragilistic Awesome Disney Podcast. My name is Chris, and I’m
Kelli 0:13
Kelli.
Chris 0:14
We’re we’re disaster. Yes, you are in just a normal state of how things are. I think we’re always a disaster, and for some reason, you
Kelli 0:21
and I are always shocked by that. But I think we’re always a disaster.
Chris 0:27
We’ve been doing some version of this for six years now, and
Kelli 0:31
we’re a disaster at the beginning of every episode. And I don’t know why, or just all the time in general. I remain shocked by this. Hey, you’re wearing your Mickey hoodie, which I think is adorable, and I’m wearing my Remy Ratatouille ears. I
Chris 0:42
know, and I’m gonna get. I’m gonna guess you’re not wearing those because of my segment.
Kelli 0:48
No, I’m not wearing these because of your segment. I think that I’m wearing these because of my segment, and they are topic adjacent. Okay,
Chris 0:54
that’s why I wondered because they’re kind of topic adjacent for me too. And I’m thinking that maybe the holidays here, as we’ve gone past spooky season, it’ll be a lot of food conversations. I’m for it.
Kelli 1:07
I say that’s that’s really our jam to begin with.
Chris 1:10
All right, so we had more great downloads. We’re so happy that everybody keeps listening for whatever reason. Stamford, Connecticut. I’ve been through Stanford before, just 34 miles outside of New York City. Also serves as a major corporate hub, formerly known as the Lock City due to its long history of manufacturing locks and keys for Yale and town.
Kelli 1:32
Oh wow! Okay.
Chris 1:33
So you’ve seen Yale locks? Yeah,
Kelli 1:34
Yale locks. Stanford. Absolutely. Okay. I’m
Chris 1:37
gonna lose this earpiece again. Yonkers, New York, often returned to as the sixth borough of New York City because it’s, but it’s technically its own city. Okay,
Kelli 1:49
Yonkers is like
Chris 1:50
Yonkers. Yes, if you had
Kelli 1:51
an address, it would be Yonkers, comma N Y.
Chris 1:53
Yes. Okay. Yes. All right. In 1894, a referendum was held in the cities and towns immediately surrounding New York City to determine whether they would consolidate into Greater New York, and that led to in 1898, four years later, the creation of the five boroughs. Yonkers decided they were not going to join that. We don’t want to be
Kelli 2:13
in a five borough. We want to be our own thing. We want to be the lead character in our own story.
Chris 2:17
Okay, so them and Mount Vernon, New York, both did the same thing. All right, Seremban, Malaysia.
Kelli 2:24
Ooh, how do you spell Seremban?
Chris 2:25
Seremban.
Kelli 2:26
Seremban.
Chris 2:27
S e r e m b. You’re gonna get semantic satiation from Seremban.
Kelli 2:34
Seremban. Welcome, Malaysia. I know we’ve had Malaysia. We have because
Chris 2:39
we’ve had Kuala Lumpur, and this is 40 miles south of Kuala Lumpur. Okay, all right. Aren’t you glad you asked that question? I’m
Kelli 2:45
so glad, and I knew that you would know.
Chris 2:48
Yeah, famous for its landmarks like the colorful Centipede Temple and a host of other local delicacies.
Kelli 2:55
Okay, Temple.
Chris 2:56
Yeah, Serenban.
Kelli 2:57
Have to Google that.
Chris 2:58
Seremban. Ready for some news items, Christmas decor is up at the Magic Kingdom. Actually, popped up a little later than it normally does. Like it took them an extra 24 hours because of weather and some timing and all sorts of stuff. But it’s up now.
Kelli 3:19
Now it’s Christmas. The
Chris 3:19
best time of year. Now
Kelli 3:21
it’s Christmas. Best
Chris 3:22
time of year to be at Magic Kingdom and all the other places there. The Churro Olympics gold medal winners are available at Animal Kingdom.
Kelli 3:31
Wait a second.
Chris 3:31
That’s right.
Kelli 3:33
Wait a second.
Chris 3:35
Literally, my next note is yes, this is a thing,
Kelli 3:38
and I didn’t win it.
Chris 3:40
You did not win the Churro Olympics. The
Kelli 3:42
Churro Olympics?
Chris 3:43
Yeah, this is not about who who
Kelli 3:45
can who can eat churros the most churros in a park.
Chris 3:48
No, no, the
Kelli 3:49
fastest.
Chris 3:50
No, that’s not what it is. But you would win if that’s what this was.
Kelli 3:53
I would. I’ve there’s a video on YouTube showing me doing that at Disneyland. I
Chris 3:58
know, and you did a great job. I cannot believe how many churros you ate. It was so great. It was the greatest day. It was the
Kelli 4:04
greatest day. No,
Chris 4:05
the Churro Olympics is where the culinary chefs at Disney are charged with coming up with new churro centric food items. Wow! And then they vote on them.
Kelli 4:19
Yes. Okay.
Chris 4:20
This this so
Kelli 4:22
the churros themselves win, not the not the well the the the
Chris 4:26
chefs get credit for okay Chef Brad and his team at Animal Kingdom they won they
Kelli 4:32
won they got like oh Animal Kingdom Animal Kingdom is they bring it dark horse it is a very underrated food park even as
Chris 4:39
much as people are starting to realize right now that we’re all going
Kelli 4:42
for that ice cream sandwich bar, that is just an abomination.
Chris 4:46
Right, right. They won for the Churro Misu cold brew at the Isle of Java at Animal. This, by the way, this started this contest started back in April. They were working on Churro
Kelli 4:57
Misu cold brew Churro Misu. Think
Chris 5:00
tiramisu.
Kelli 5:02
Oh, I was thinking like miso. I
Chris 5:04
know, I did too. Okay, good. I’m
Kelli 5:06
actually really glad it’s miso and not miso. I was worried. Oh, 1,000%.
Chris 5:10
Yeah, I was worried too.
Kelli 5:11
Okay, what did Brad put in his tiramisu? This is a
Chris 5:14
drink. This is a coffee drink. It’s cold brew, right? Around the flavors of a classic tiramisu starts with sweetened Joffrey’s cold brew coffee, a layer of mascarpone cream, and a dusting of cocoa powder give it its tiramisu look, and then a crunchy churro finishes the drink. So I mean, it’s basically they put they stuck a churro down in the specialty coffee.
Kelli 5:33
Okay,
Chris 5:34
so it makes me wonder
Kelli 5:35
alcohol in that.
Chris 5:37
Why is that? Because
Kelli 5:38
Joffrey will put some alcohol. He will. He will give you a. He’ll give you a shot. The
Chris 5:43
other one that they created was the. This was. This one took more effort. The Dole Whip Pineapple and Chili Lime Churro Sundae at the War Room Outpost. Those are
Kelli 5:52
a lot of words right there. It
Chris 5:53
was this Sundae layers Dole Whip Pineapple with chili lime marinated pineapple chunks.
Kelli 6:01
Oof. Okay.
Chris 6:01
And a warm cinnamon churro. A warm cinnamon churro.
Kelli 6:04
Okay, I do like the warm churros.
Chris 6:06
Yeah, man. There’s
Kelli 6:07
something to a warm churro. Remember that time we waited in line for warm churros at Hollywood Studios, and they came like pushing them across with a car right there in front of like when it was the great movie ride. You know, people were fighting over those things. It was and they and like there was a
Chris 6:23
guy who’s about to. I think he was about to pull that girl out of her little kiosk. What was the situation?
Kelli 6:27
There was a situation right there because they didn’t
Chris 6:29
have the warm ones out fast enough. Have you seen? Do you follow? Care
Kelli 6:36
about that stuff? You
Chris 6:37
follow Jaron Dale on online? He’s great. He’s part of the list show now with Megan the Magical Millennial.
Kelli 6:44
Okay,
Chris 6:44
but he recently did a new churro, like a Biscoff cookie butter churro. Now a
Kelli 6:50
Biscoff churro would be lovely.
Chris 6:52
This thing looked. He’s like, I’m not a big fan of churros, but this one’s got me.
Kelli 6:55
I’m a fan of Biscoff. Okay, and
Chris 6:57
churros.
Kelli 6:58
Who doesn’t love and cookie butter? Yes, right. Oh my gosh!
Chris 7:01
Cars parking cars is the next headline. Disney is Disney is testing out robotic car guides that would show you to your parking spot.
Kelli 7:12
And they’re, I assume, cars themed. They’re
Chris 7:15
cars themed. Of course they are. So they have a thing called the Disney Accelerator program where they they they invite like four companies to come in four or five companies to come in their startups to come up with an idea right and then they and they award they then they have a demo day at the end of a four four month process or whatever and these cars were shown off at the demo day that’s
Kelli 7:38
awesome
Chris 7:39
so it’s pretty cool I don’t know if this would take off, but it’s still pretty cool.
Kelli 7:43
It’s cute. They’ve got little.
Chris 7:44
There’s one robot. It looks like a car, and he’s he’s got two arms that hold the little light poles, and then a thing above him that points an arrow to the spot you’re supposed to park in.
Kelli 7:53
Yeah.
Chris 7:53
And then there’s another robot in the parking spot itself, basically like saying this is where you can live. Oh, bless it. Yes. I mean, if somebody
Kelli 8:00
hits one of those things, though, that’s fairly expensive, right? I mean, if you hit if you hit a human, it’s also fairly also fairly expensive. But like, I
Chris 8:09
saw a video from the Dapper Manatee online too. He was talking about these. He’s like, “They’re gonna get hit.”
Kelli 8:16
Yeah, they’re gonna get hit. The
Chris 8:17
people get hit. They’re gonna get hit.
Kelli 8:19
Do the people get hit? He said.
Chris 8:20
He said. I cannot wait for my comments, where a lot of former cast members who had to work the parking lot are going to tell me how they all got hit.
Kelli 8:27
Oh my gosh!
Chris 8:29
Disney patents an AI character voice for meet and greets. So Disney received a patent for an artificial intelligence system that would let costumed characters hold real time conversations with guests in the character’s voice. The system pairs a large language model with a voice-generating AI model. It also takes its emotional cues from the face of the performer inside the costume. That’s
Kelli 8:56
not a lot different than Turtle Talk with Crush,
Chris 8:59
except that Turtle Talk’s got a a guy that’s actually doing the speaking behind, but still, like they’re taking
Kelli 9:04
emotional cues and all of that. Yeah, yeah. So to say that that’s an AI able to do that, that’s pretty cool. That’s pretty cool.
Chris 9:11
Yes, exactly. Yeah. So I mean, this allows the performer inside the costume to actually be able to speak and interact and know that whatever comes out is in the voice of that character,
Kelli 9:21
right?
Chris 9:22
Pretty, pretty cool stuff.
Kelli 9:24
Yeah,
Chris 9:24
and who doesn’t want them to actually be able to talk to you? I want them.
Kelli 9:28
Well, I mean, like, of course they used
Chris 9:31
to, they used to pitch. Some of them can. So yeah, they used to pitch talking Mickey at at the the you know the city hall or whatever.
Kelli 9:39
It’s a little bit weird that he doesn’t talk, I gotta say, because Mickey’s he’s pretty verbose.
Chris 9:44
He’s he can be chatty. He
Kelli 9:45
can be chatty. He can be chatty. It’s a little bit weird that he doesn’t talk. We met Olaf. I thought that was weird that he didn’t talk.
Chris 9:52
Yeah. Okay. Well, that’s also
Kelli 9:54
thought it was weird that Olaf couldn’t sign his name and everybody was like, he’s just got the the twigs. The
Chris 9:58
twigs.
Kelli 9:59
But I’m like. Icky can sign his name, and he’s just got four fingers.
Chris 10:02
He’s got hands, though.
Kelli 10:04
But still, with he’s not he’s
Chris 10:06
not saddled with just twigs. Let’s
Kelli 10:07
just say though that Olaf is magic, and so the idea that the twigs can’t write seems to me an odd line to draw. If you’ve got a snowman, have you ever
Chris 10:20
lived the life of a snowman
Kelli 10:22
with his own cloud that sprinkles snow on him as he walks around? I’m just saying there’s magic involved in Olaf, and so the twig should be able to write.
Chris 10:33
Man, that’s a weird hill to die on.
Kelli 10:34
I’m just saying when we saw Olaf and he couldn’t sign the book, I thought, well, that’s odd. Why can’t Olaf sign the book? It seems it seems like a given that the twigs should be able to write.
Chris 10:50
I think we ought to write a letter.
Kelli 10:51
I mean, they need to. They need to think through that.
Chris 10:55
We should write a letter. Somebody wrote to Josh tomorrow.
Kelli 10:58
Olaf should be able to write with his twigs. Here’s why: A, magic. B, magic. C, C, I want a signature.
Chris 11:10
Are you ready to do? You got Tomorrowland. Oh, I’ve got
Kelli 11:12
Tomorrowland. I do have Tomorrowland, and it’s going to be awesome.
Chris 11:14
Okay, good. Well, I’m excited. That was all
Kelli 11:16
the news. So for Tomorrowland, I was excited because we do have a trip planned. What we have a trip plan of December. We’re going to go for New Year’s, and we’re very excited. We’re staying in
Chris 11:29
1100 resorts. We
Kelli 11:30
stayed in every resort possible, and we are we added two days to the trip to save money on the flights. These are the considerations
Chris 11:43
of a DVC member of a
Kelli 11:44
DVC member living in the middle of the country. That’s right. So it was we have Breeze Airlines from Lincoln, and they only go to direct flight to MCO twice a week, and so you want to be on those flights because the price is right and it’s direct.
Chris 12:00
Yep.
Kelli 12:00
And so it was cheaper for us to add two days. We had the points. That’s
Chris 12:04
right.
Kelli 12:04
So when there we go. So I went through our plans on my Disney experience to see where all we’re going to figure out what I wanted to do for tomorrow. It would take a while
Chris 12:14
because we’re because we’re literally every
Kelli 12:16
day different hotel. So we are going to eat at Olivia’s Cafe at the Old Key West Resort. Oh, I’m excited! And I didn’t even know about that when we were looking at at menus and stuff. You were like, “We should do Olivia’s.” People talk about Olivia’s, and we wanted somewhere to do breakfast on the last day. Our last night is at Old Key West.
Chris 12:34
That’s right.
Kelli 12:35
And so we were like, “Well, let’s do Olivia’s Cafe.” So Olivia’s Cafe at Old Key West Resort is described as savor hearty home cooking with a taste of the Florida Keys at this hidden gem.
Chris 12:46
I love that,
Kelli 12:47
right? I like the Florida Keys. Who is Olivia? You might ask. I would
Chris 12:51
wonder what.
Kelli 12:52
Well, Olivia is Olivia Farnsworth. Olivia lived in a small cottage along Turtle Crawl, upwind of the Strip, almost daily she would invite curious passersby who smelled her cooking to come on in and pull up a chair. People loved her vibrant flavors and earthy personality, and before long she found herself setting more tables. Eventually Olivia opened the doors to her own eponymous. Now you might wonder how is that spelled. I wondered how is it pronounced, and I went down quite the rabbit hole right there. The word eponymous is an adjective that means bearing, giving, or sharing a name. So because it’s Olivia’s Cafe, this is eponymous, and this has been a haven for locals and a must visit for out of towners ever since. Okay, so it is described as being as breezy and relaxed as Key West itself.
Chris 13:45
Well, I’m into that.
Kelli 13:46
A longtime resident of Conk Flats, Olivia welcomes diners with island-inspired dishes and traditional American fare. Conk Flats is like the main building there at Old Key West, with with the store and the food and all of that. This nautical-themed eatery has the friendly, familiar feel of a neighborhood institution and is a perennial favorite of many a guest. Come in and conk out. Take your taste buds to the Florida Keys for a mouth-watering meal, evening, noon, or night. Our morning, noon, or night. Now we’re going to go for breakfast,
Chris 14:21
right? Right. We’re going to be there for breakfast,
Kelli 14:23
so I’m focusing on the breakfast menu. But for breakfast, we say rise and shine with favorites like buttermilk biscuits and the crab cake eggs benedict. I will touch in. I will touch on slightly lunch and dinner towards the end. But let’s talk about breakfast, okay? So breakfast. First of all, we have some starters. We have seasonal fruit served with acai pudding, which is nice. Feels a little bit out there for Olivia. Does $9 an apple oatmeal brulee for seven? These are starters. Freshly baked pastries $10, and then. In your entrees, southernmost buttermilk chicken, scrambled eggs, Olivia’s potatoes, biscuit, and southern gravy for $27. That one’s got your name all over it. Does
Chris 15:11
man? I’m just so into.
Kelli 15:14
Really has your name on it. Crab cake eggs benedict, poached eggs and crab cakes on a biscuit with key lime Hollandaise, honey, key
Chris 15:22
lime hollandaise,
Kelli 15:23
served with Olivia’s potatoes for $26.
Chris 15:26
Oh man, I’m gonna have a hard time deciding what to get at this. That’s gonna be
Kelli 15:29
that’s gonna be a tough one for you. Banana bread French toast topped with a Bahamian banana rum syrup and a creme anglaise, served with a choice of bacon or sausage for $20. You don’t get a lot of creme on glazes.
Chris 15:44
You don’t. You know, not around here.
Kelli 15:47
Buttermilk pancakes served with scrambled eggs and your choice of bacon or sausage for $17. A sombrero beach omelet, ham, green peppers, onions, and cheddar and sour with pico de gallos served with Olivia’s potatoes and a biscuit for $17. I love that she’s got some stuff coming with biscuits. Yeah,
Chris 16:07
man, biscuits are big things.
Kelli 16:09
Biscuits are biscuits are notably absent from Nebraska, and it’s a real sad situation. It’s a real problem
Chris 16:15
for me. It’s a
Kelli 16:16
sad situation. Olivia’s breakfast is two eggs any style with Olivia’s potatoes and a biscuit served with your choice of bacon and sausage for $17, and then you got Papa’s hash, which is potatoes, spinach, plant-based sausage, plant-based frittata, and tomatoes for 17.
Chris 16:35
Interesting.
Kelli 16:35
Yeah, so that’s your plant-based option. I like that Olivia’s got a plant-based option. Now those are your main entrees, right? So something for everybody. You’ve got plant based. You’ve got people who have a sweet tooth in the morning. You’ve got people who want the fried chicken. People who want the hollandaise. All of that with her own unique spin on it, right? The key lime hollandaise is nice. You can also get as a side bacon sausage. You can also get as a side biscuits, potatoes, or grits for 550. All their sides are 550. Grits also notably absent for Nebraska, which I think is ridiculous given the amount of corn in the state.
Chris 17:11
It’s fair. That’s a fair. How do we
Kelli 17:12
not have grits? How do we not
Chris 17:14
have more grits? I
Kelli 17:15
don’t understand it. I don’t understand it. Also, a significant lack of cornbread out here. No corn meal mix, other than like Jiffy. And if you say cornbread around here, I’m sorry, I’m going on a tangent. You say cornbread around there, like you know, like Jiffy, and I’m like, shut your mouth, shut your mouth. Oh my gosh! If you’re not buying white lily cornmeal mix, I don’t even want to talk to you.
Chris 17:38
Here, honey.
Kelli 17:39
Please, kids can get scrambled eggs with their choice of drinks. They can also get Mickey-shaped waffles, right? So Olivia’s coming with the IP food that everybody wants. Who doesn’t want the Mickey-shaped waffle? I mean,
Chris 17:54
we’ve all got to have it,
Kelli 17:56
right? Now let’s talk for a second about Bev’s, okay? Because I think Bev’s is a really key part of breakfast that often gets overlooked. Now you know I love a good unique coffee experience.
Chris 18:09
You do not just coffee was not
Kelli 18:12
just a coffee drink. I love a unique coffee experience. I think that’s what elevates Vicky and Al’s right. That vacuum pressed coffee that you get at the end, it’s really nice. Okay, so Olivia has a French press pot filled with Peru Alto Mayo coffee. This comes from a protected forest in Peru. Disney supports Conversation International’s Alto Mayo Protected Forest Project in Peru, which promotes sustainable coffee growing and economic growth.
Chris 18:46
Love that.
Kelli 18:46
And so that coffee experience, that French press pot, is $10.25.
Chris 18:51
Well, I don’t know if we can have it for that then.
Kelli 18:53
Well, I’m so I’ll have it because nobody else at the table is going to be drinking the coffee. There are also some some lovely cocktails. She she serves a Bloody Mary with Tito’s, right? So Olivia knows where it’s at.
Chris 19:07
She knows good.
Kelli 19:08
She’s also got a Legasa mimosa mimosa, and that’s a signature bev, and a black orange spritz with kettle one botanical peach and orange blossom vodka, Rocky’s botanical liqueur, and Kim Crawford’s Sauvignon Blanc with blackberry. Now they don’t say that the blackberry is macerated, but you know I love a good macerated fruit.
Chris 19:34
Muddled, you love. I love something
Kelli 19:36
muddled and macerated, and they don’t say that. But I’ve got to believe that there’s some macerated blackberries happening. Just dropping some
Chris 19:42
blackberries in their champagne.
Kelli 19:44
That looks like a lovely, lovely thing. They also have some fun non-alcoholic beverage specialties. We’ve got a key lime dream, which is a frozen blend of minute-made limeade and key lime topped. With a sweet cream and graham cracker crumbs for 699, and that sounds lovely,
Chris 20:06
delightful.
Kelli 20:06
Enchanted Grove Lime Splash again with your Minute Maid Limeade, paired with the revitalizing flavors of cucumber and mint for $6.29.
Chris 20:19
So refreshing,
Kelli 20:20
doesn’t that sound refreshing? And an enchanting ember lemonade. This one’s fun. Minute Maid premium lemonade, strawberry, and hot honey for 649. That’s doesn’t that sound fun? Really
Chris 20:35
stepping out there. Olivia’s
Kelli 20:37
bringing that now for lunch. If you go for lunch, she’s got things like conch fritters, buttermilk chicken, a tuna poke bowl, and shrimp and grits. Right, Olivia’s got a solid. I know why people. I
Chris 20:51
know why people talk about hers the way they do.
Kelli 20:54
Yes, for dinner, she’s got a prime rib, jerk grilled pork chop, buttermilk chicken, and again shrimp and grits.
Chris 21:02
Wow,
Kelli 21:03
Olivia’s bringing it. She’s not
Chris 21:04
skimping. She’s really fighting above her weight class. She
Kelli 21:07
really is, and I’m super excited to be going there for breakfast on the last morning. We got reservations at 10 a.m. It’s going to be a nice, relaxing breakfast there with Olivia Farnsworth, and and I’m excited for.
Chris 21:22
Me too.
Kelli 21:23
I’m very very. I’m excited for
Chris 21:24
us. You kidding me?
Kelli 21:25
Same same. I’m excited for us too, honey.
Chris 21:28
I’ve never been more excited to go to a restaurant. I mean, biscuits, gravy, hollandaise, grits.
Kelli 21:36
Good. Good. All that. All good. What you got for us for World Showcase? I’m
Chris 21:41
also talking about food,
Kelli 21:44
okay.
Chris 21:45
As we do,
Kelli 21:46
as we do.
Chris 21:46
I’m going to Jock Lindsay’s Holiday Bar now.
Kelli 21:52
Yeah,
Chris 21:52
I’m a big fan of Jock Lindsay’s Hanger Bar anyway. But then they what they do with it at the holidays, Christmas is
Kelli 21:59
a step up, truly
Chris 22:00
special. Now, Jock Lindsay’s is this is not he’s technically a member of SEA, I believe. Right, right. And if you’ve ever watched Raiders of the Lost Ark, the Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, Jock Lindsay is the pilot at the very very beginning of the movie that sort of rescues Harrison Ford’s Indiana Jones right at the very beginning of the movie, right? And
Kelli 22:25
there’s a snake in the lunch. There’s a
Chris 22:26
there’s a snake in the plane with him, and he and he says, “I hate snakes, Jock.” And Jock says, “That’s just my pet snake, Reggie.” Show a little backbone, will you? Yes. So, and then you could find a little Easter egg for that in the Skipper Canteen restaurant at Magic Kingdom.
Kelli 22:46
Yeah.
Chris 22:46
Well, Jock Lindsay’s hanger bar, or in the holidays, his holiday bar is supposed to be his bar. Jock Lindsay has a bar. This is it. It’s at Disney Springs, and we go in there because it’s a good time and it’s it’s just interesting to look at all the stuff on the walls and everything. Yeah, it’s
Kelli 23:04
not hard to get into. You can usually get into. It looks yeah,
Chris 23:07
you can and and it’s and it’s usually it’s like a a fly boy, like a 1930s fly boy kind of vibe in there, and it’s really cool. And they’ve got um they’ve also got some like dock side seating, so like you can sit, you know, out by the water and everything. But I’m always surprised at how Jock Lindsay’s bringing it when it comes to food. And so he’s got a special holiday bar menu that he’s releasing, and he does this every year. And the food usually just looks like something you’d want to try.
Kelli 23:41
Yeah,
Chris 23:41
it’s usually it’s usually different. So we’re going to talk about his specialty items that are coming for the holiday bar this year. And right as I got started, my computer just died, but that’s okay because I have a backup here.
Kelli 23:53
Okay, good. So
Chris 23:54
first thing is their holiday freight rolls.
Kelli 23:59
Okay,
Chris 24:00
okay, these are pork, beef, and sweet potato filled egg rolls with sweet and sour cranberry sauce. Wow, that is right in my wheelhouse, man. I would eat that for sure. Holiday freight rolls, pork and beef, and sweet potato filling. I will say, sweet potato is a little bit of a theme here. Jock really got into the sweet potatoes. Okay,
Kelli 24:25
sweet potatoes are great for you. High in fiber.
Chris 24:28
I love them. I especially love them when you dump a bunch of sugar in with them and mix them all up, throw in a crap ton of butter, and then cover it up with like some candied pecans. Right. That that really puts it over the top for you. It and still stays super healthy. I’m sure cover
Kelli 24:46
meal there. The
Chris 24:47
North Pole catch.
Kelli 24:50
Okay,
Chris 24:50
this is a smoked trout dip, lavash chips, smoked salmon pinwheels with caper dill cream. Cheese and fish and shrimp cakes with citrus mustard aioli. It’s a lot going on. This is like a lot going on. This is like a it’s like a charcuterie, but a seafood based charcuterie with lavash. Right, we’ve seen those like ham. I’m a fan of lavash. I know you are. You’re not a fan of anything else that I just not a single word. But
Kelli 25:17
but I do love lavash. Yeah.
Chris 25:19
So we’ve all seen like those ham and cream cheese dill pinwheels, like at parties and stuff. It’s one of the items is that, but with smoked salmon.
Kelli 25:28
Okay,
Chris 25:29
which looks a little bit
Kelli 25:30
elevated.
Chris 25:31
Yes, very much so. Smoked trout dip that sounds great. The fish and shrimp cake sounds amazing. Just again, right in my flavor profile, I could really dig on that.
Kelli 25:42
Okay,
Chris 25:44
okay. Oh, Christmas brie!
Kelli 25:48
I love that so much. I love it. Oh, Christmas brie!
Chris 25:54
Crispy, crispy Danish brie, lignonberry marmalade, and candied black pepper bacon. Yes, shut up.
Kelli 26:03
I mean, I’d give you all the bacon, but the brie and the and the blackberry and the black
Chris 26:08
and the lingonberry, lingonberry, lingonberry marmalade. I know.
Kelli 26:12
Did we get this from IKEA?
Chris 26:16
The lingonberry. They love a good lingonberry. They do love that. They do. I give them credit. They do. No, but it looks again. Looks just. It looks great. It’s like a little crispy ball of happiness. Is what it looks like.
Kelli 26:31
Okay.
Chris 26:31
I’m scrolling on. Oh, so these are
Kelli 26:33
individual. These are little individual breeze. Yeah. Yes. These are like little things. Like a a circle of brie, no ma’am, covered in lingonberries, no, with some bacon. No, this
Chris 26:46
is this is like a little. They’ve they’ve taken brie and they’ve they’ve fried it crispy. Wow, and they put a little uh, you you can dip that in lingonberry and
Kelli 26:55
now that’s nice. Yeah, yeah,
Chris 26:57
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Kelli 26:59
That’s nice. Had to find a time
Chris 27:02
to get over there on this trip. Okay, present perfect croquettes. This is crispy fried turkey croquettes with a cherry orange brandy glaze. I mean, gosh, cherry orange brandy glaze. Those are some good words. I feel like you could put that on everything, and it would be okay, right? Put give me that too with those crispy brie cherry
Kelli 27:26
orange brandy glaze. That sounds lovely. It’s
Chris 27:29
hard to make these turkey croquettes look super special because they’re basically like these deep fried squares of turkey, I guess. Okay, but the the glaze on them also looks deep
Kelli 27:39
fried squares of turkey, crispy
Chris 27:41
fried turkey croquettes.
Kelli 27:43
So it’s like a little turkey nugget.
Chris 27:45
Yeah.
Kelli 27:45
Okay.
Chris 27:46
Probably a little bit bigger than that, maybe.
Kelli 27:48
And it’s a square. It
Chris 27:49
looks like a square in the picture.
Kelli 27:50
Okay. Turkeys aren’t square,
Chris 27:54
but their croquettes are. Never mind.
Kelli 27:56
Okay.
Chris 27:58
That was gonna go to a weird place. Tinsel and tender bites.
Kelli 28:03
Okay,
Chris 28:04
these are Cabernet braised short ribs, spiced macadamia nuts, and cauliflower puree. I mean, they’re just not phoning it in. You know,
Kelli 28:16
no, no, no, no, no. What flavors
Chris 28:17
can we put together? And let’s
Kelli 28:19
do some short ribs. Let’s do some and a cauliflower puree. Some
Chris 28:22
Cabernet braised short ribs with
Kelli 28:24
a cauliflower puree. Cauliflower
Chris 28:25
and and you know what? Just forgive it. Let’s throw some spiced macadamia nuts in there too. Because why not? Why
Kelli 28:31
not? Why wouldn’t you? Who doesn’t
Chris 28:33
like spiced macadamia nuts?
Kelli 28:35
Yes. Absolutely.
Chris 28:38
Okay. This as good as some of these other things. I think this is going to be my thing.
Kelli 28:44
Okay,
Chris 28:45
a wreath of Wellington.
Kelli 28:46
A wreath of Wellington. Yes. Okay. So
Chris 28:49
this also looks kind of like a pinwheel.
Kelli 28:51
Okay.
Chris 28:52
Or a roulade.
Kelli 28:53
Okay. A roulade. This is
Chris 28:56
strip steak, mushroom duzell, gruyere, and puff pastry, herbed with with a parmesan and horseradish mustard. So this is basically we’ve all seen like Gordon Ramsay’s beef Wellington, right? Which is tenderloin, mushroom drizzle. Sometimes it’s got prosciutto and a puff pastry, right? It’s basically that, except they’ve clearly rolled this like a pinwheel, like a roulade.
Kelli 29:24
Ah, okay, and that’s the wreath. This is the
Chris 29:27
wreath of Wellington. Okay, Wellington’s like beef Wellington. Okay,
Kelli 29:31
I got you.
Chris 29:32
I got you. It’s got been judged a little bit.
Kelli 29:34
Okay,
Chris 29:34
at least visually judged. I don’t know. Visually judged. Visually judged. Okay. What? What?
Kelli 29:41
It’s been visually changed.
Chris 29:44
All right, he he’s stepping out here now for this last one, last food item anyway. Bowels of Holly, deviled eggs.
Kelli 29:54
Okay,
Chris 29:55
deviled eggs. Okay, it’s really just like a boiled egg, but with. A sweet potato filling.
Kelli 30:03
What do you mean, just like a boiled egg? Well, because we all know what a deviled egg, but
Chris 30:07
I don’t know that they’ve got the the yolk. I don’t think the yolks involved here.
Kelli 30:11
I’m sure the yolks involved. That’s what makes it deviled. That’s see, that’s what I like. You get like the sweet potato with the yolk, and there you get the sweet potato. They don’t
Chris 30:19
say that. They just say a sweet potato. I don’t wonder what I have been wondering what they’ve been doing with all the yolks. What is their plan for all the yolks?
Kelli 30:27
Pashtey’s Donato, apparently. Oh yeah, we can do that. It’s a deep cut for if you like the grape rich back off. You know
Chris 30:39
you know what we’re talking about. So this is a deviled egg with a sweet potato filling, fried chicken. So it’s got a little chicken nugget sitting right on top of the deviled egg. Deviled
Kelli 30:48
egg, okay.
Chris 30:49
And herbed butter, cranberry and parsley. So this has also got like it’s got on top of the little chicken nugget
Kelli 30:58
a cranberry. Wow, gosh! I mean, you’re doing that kind of stuff with tweezers.
Chris 31:03
Yeah, yes, you are, and like you got to be real careful when you hold on to that. And I think it’s all one bite, probably
Kelli 31:10
right.
Chris 31:10
All one bite. I
Kelli 31:11
think it’s. I think deviled egg is a one bite situation. I think people who take two bites of a deviled egg are a little bit weird. Really, I got to tell you, you know, Nigella Lawson wouldn’t. Man, she’d put two deviled eggs in her mouth. She whatever’s in her
Chris 31:23
hand is going to go entirely into her mouth.
Kelli 31:26
So no, I think I don’t think you should take two bites of a deviled egg. I think a deviled egg is a one pop situation. It’s gonna
Chris 31:32
one pop. It
Kelli 31:33
just gets messy. Deviled
Chris 31:34
eggs or one pop situation. Write that down for a T-shirt. It’s a one pop situation. Deviled eggs. They’re a one pop situation.
Kelli 31:41
If you try to take little tiny angelic bites out of a deviled egg, first of all, deviled egg, don’t take angelic bites. Sure, but you can’t get precious with a deviled egg. You got to just certainly cannot.
Chris 31:50
Another T-shirt. You can’t get precious with a deviled egg. I love it. We’re just coming up with them left and right. All right, let’s move on to the Bevs.
Kelli 31:57
Okay,
Chris 31:58
they’ve got a special non-alcoholic drink here: Hanger Holly Jolly, Minute Maid Apple Juice, Kiwi Syrup, Lime Juice, and Seagram’s Ginger Ale, garnished with cranberries. That’s a delightful little drink. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Minute apple juice, kiwi syrup, lemon or lime juice, ginger ale. Love it. All right, that’s garbage though. Let’s move on to the real drinks. Garbage,
Kelli 32:21
okay, garbage. The
Chris 32:23
cranberry apple compass mule. This is Hendricks gin, apple cider, cranberry juice, and lemon juice topped with ginger beer, garnished with cranberries, sugared cranberries, sugared cranberries.
Kelli 32:39
Okay, yeah. Apple cider,
Chris 32:40
gin, apple cider, man, sugar, cranberries. There’s a lot going
Kelli 32:43
on in that. Yeah, it’s a lot. I’m not. I’m
Chris 32:45
not a very big. I’m not a huge fan of a mule. I’m. I’m not fan of gin in general. Okay. Yeah. Gin tastes like pine sol to me.
Kelli 32:50
Okay.
Chris 32:52
Frosted passage martini. Tito’s. Yes. Tito’s handmade vodka.
Kelli 32:57

Chris 32:58

Kelli 33:18
Yes, yes, maybe that tonight. All those words, I love all those words.
Chris 33:22
All right, here’s I’m actually gonna go to that one last because it’s the winner. Holiday cranberry negroni. This is a gin again, Hendrix gin, Campari, Martina Rossi, sweet vermouth, cranberry juice, and simple syrup. I mean, it’s basically a Negroni, but they’re throwing some cranberry juice in there.
Kelli 33:37
Okay.
Chris 33:39
All right, the best item they’ve got is the hot chocolate around the globe flight.
Kelli 33:43
Yes,
Chris 33:44
featuring Joffrey’s hot cocoa.
Kelli 33:46
Yes, the
Chris 33:47
first dark chocolate Don Julio tequila, ancho Reyes chili liqueur, and cinnamon syrup topped with whipped cream and a dust of cinnamon. Can
Kelli 33:58
we do some of the tequila? All
Chris 34:00
right, all right. The next flight item is the white hot chocolate. This includes Frangelico liqueur, Shambor liqueur, topped with whipped cream, salted caramel crispy pearls, and a raspberry sauce. I think you’ll be okay with that one. Be okay
Kelli 34:14
with that one, yeah, for sure.
Chris 34:15
And now the they’ve got another dark hot chocolate item made with Malibu coconut rum, okay,
Kelli 34:23
yeah,
Chris 34:24

Kelli 34:25
yes,
Chris 34:26
and topped with whipped cream and garnished with coconut flakes. That’s the one I want.
Kelli 34:29
That’s the one. I mean, I will say Bailey’s is trash. Well, only because we’ve had we’ve had five farms. Yeah, Bailey’s is trash. Don’t buy don’t buy Bailey’s. It’s trash. Or buy
Chris 34:39
Bailey’s. They’ve got more money to give us if we pimp them out. Bailey’s is not sponsoring us. We want five farms. Five farms. Five farms is the way to go. If you’re looking for an Irish cream,
Kelli 34:48
