1. Cronut

Many visitors to Walt Disney World do not know that they can sample a cronut as they travel around the World Showcase in Epcot. Located at the Refreshment Port as you turn toward the Canada pavilion from the center bridge out of FutureWorld, the Cronut, or croissant doughnut as it must be called to protect from copyright infringement, is a culinary delight that shouldn’t be missed. Doughnut batter is expertly layered in such a way to resemble the flaky texture of a croissant and then deep fried while you wait. The cronut is then rolled in cinnamon sugar and served hot. This treat is large enough to share, but you probably won’t want to after your first bite.

2. Nutella, Strawberry and Banana Waffle Sandwich

Sleepy Hollow Refreshments, located in the shadow of Cinderella’s Castle in Liberty Square, is home to some unusual food items – a large, homemade cookie ice cream sandwich, chicken and waffles, or seasonal items – but many do not know it is where you can get a Belgian waffle sandwich filled with chocolate hazelnut spread, strawberries, and bananas. The waffle is made to order so it is warm when it is served. This also allows the chocolate hazelnut spread to be generously spread over the whole waffle. The fruit is fresh and plentiful, and while this treat is labeled a sandwich on the menu, don’t forget your fork and knife, because you’ll need them!


3. Chinese Take-Out

The fact that you could get Chinese take-out during a trip to Walt Disney World is certainly unusual. Generally, I would point you in the direction of a more interesting meal, but the Chinese take-out offered at Yak and Yeti Local Foods Café in the Asia are of Animal Kingdom is too unique of an option to pass up. Here, you can have your choice of expertly fried and sauced honey chicken with broccoli or sweet and sour chicken with carrots and peppers. Both entrées are served with fluffy, steamed white rice and the same sauces found at your local take-out joint. Even though they no longer give you a fortune cookie to end your meal, Yak and Yeti Local Foods Café and its unusual Chinese take-out is a unique option for a quick meal.
