    YES to a Pt. 2 that includes table service AND Downtown Disney spots! "Team Matterhorn" coconutty-goodness ALL the way! taste and preservability for "later" give it the edge! But I DO also enjoy the raspberry macaron, though it's a bit of an "acquired" taste I think, especially for kids! I *suspect* that some rose water is used in the making of the delectable delight but I have no factual evidence to support my statement; just my taste buds! LOL! As always, love your informative vids and ESPECIALLY the DLR ones since I'm ON the left coast and DLR is my only real Disney destination!

    Specifically for the Bengal Barbeque; it is worth it to go during the busiest times of the day due to the high turnover of ingredients for those skewers. If you go at 3pm or 9pm at night when the rush is down, you may get tough and stringy asparagus or chewy meats due to being warmed over for a few hours. It's best to mobile order in the morning for a noon pick up and grab a riverside seat over at Tropical Hideaway. Enjoy!

    RE: Jolly Holiday - there really can't be a right answer. These are definitely my top two. Raspberry Rose gets points for being a little more rare and a little more hard to acquire at times since it is often sold out. Matterhorn macaroon gets points for everything you described. Plus the price cannot be beat. They're both so different! We are lucky to have them both :-)

    We definitely need a Part 2 to this video! Also, so glad to see my usual go-to spot in Disneyland - Hungry Bear Restaurant made the list! Although I did not know about the Potato and Cheddar cheeseburger, their classic cheeseburger and fries has been the staple of my in-park lunch since 1998 (waaaaaaaay back when I visited the park for a day trip my middle school held for the 7th graders)! I had what I considered at the time to be the best burger and fries, and every time I've visited the parks since then, I have been chasing that standard! 🤣 Unfortunately I do not visit the parks often enough to have a gauge of quality for their burgers, and sadly I've never had that moment of nirvana again biting into "The Perfect Burger"... However I still do enjoy the classic cheeseburger and fries from Hungry Bear! I've heard people complain that the patties are "really thin" and "overcooked" sometimes to the point that they're "burnt to a crisp", and that they taste no better than what was served in the school cafeteria for Hamburger Day - personally, I don't think they're that bad (although maybe I've lucked out every time I had lunch there). They're not as great as In-N-Out (which is *the* place you should get a burger from when visiting Southern California - and I do say that as a resident and In-N-Out fan), they're more like a burger you'd get from McDonald's or Burger King (although personally I think Burger King outranks McDonald's in taste because their flame-grilled patties actually have a taste to them), sometimes they're better than expected, sometimes they're just okay. I'll admit that nostalgia is a big driving factor for me being a Hungry Bear apologist, but I would still encourage others to give it a try once and make their own decision - ideally without reading a bunch of negative reviews beforehand! (Unfortunately they're the first to come up when looking it up on Google, but I do believe that stuff like that can impact a person's judgement whether they want to admit it or not, and weighing yourself down with so many negative reviews that you form a subconscious bias against something, you end up going in with a mindset that it's going to be terrible and so you end up hyperfocusing on that and what would normally be maybe "decent" or "mid" ends up being "god awful" because you're looking to validate your bias.) What also elevates it for me is that every time I went, there were hardly any other people around! I know that looks bad from a business standpoint, but honestly I think it's great for when you want to get away from the crowds that can easily overstimulate you - and then when you pair that with the beautiful view you get with the seating area overlooking the Rivers of America while watching the occasional canoe pass by, it's like a little slice of heaven! (In fact, I'd recommend grabbing a lunch from a nearby quick service place if you really don't want to eat at the Hungry Bear, and making a beeline over there with your food and setting up a spot at one of the Hungry Bear tables on their terrace! Because the restaurant is kind of out of the way and not many people go there anyway, it's really the perfect spot for rest and relaxation!)
