We’re kicking off the holiday season the best way we know how — with food, fun, and a dash of Disney magic.

We start our day at The Plaza Restaurant on Main Street U.S.A. for a cozy holiday lunch — complete with that perfect view of Cinderella Castle and all the nostalgic charm The Plaza is known for. Hear our real-time reactions as we dive into seasonal offerings, discuss portion sizes, pricing, and that classic Main Street comfort food that never goes out of style.

After lunch, we take a quick stroll down Main Street to scope out this year’s holiday merch lineup — from must-grab ornaments to the newest festive clothing. We’ll share what caught our eyes, what might catch your wallet, and what trends are popping up across the park this season.

Then it’s time to park-hop! Over at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, we’re heading straight to Isle of Java to taste-test two brand-new treats: the Donut Macaron, filled with chocolate ganache and strawberry jam, and the Bunny Burrow Coffee, a colorful cold brew with blueberry syrup and sweetened condensed milk. Which one wins the day — the photo-worthy macaron or the bold new brew? We’ll give you our full verdict.

Finally, we wrap things up inside the Tree of Life Theater for the all-new stage show, Zootopia: Better Zoogether. We’ll share first impressions, crowd reactions, and how it stacks up as a replacement for It’s Tough to Be a Bug! Does this fresh, tech-driven show make Animal Kingdom feel new again?

It’s a holiday-flavored, park-hopping adventure packed with food, fun, and festive spirit.
