  • Promenade Refreshments in the American Pavilion will be offering some “down-home” American cooking this Holiday Season featuring an all-in-one sweet potato waffle, topped with delicious roast turkey, and green bean casserole. This unique treat is being called a “Turkey Waffle”!
  • For a more traditional version, Santa and Mrs. Claus will be waiting after you sooth your sweet-tooth with some American Holiday favorites such as, freshly baked gingerbread men, sugar cookies, chocolate chunk cookies, piping hot chocolate, hot spiced apple cider and delicious peppermint bark! All of these treats are being offered by the Sugar and Spice Holiday Bakery just by the Candlelight Processional.

  • Looking for a savory option to celebrate? Grab some Teriyaki Chicken Karaage – juicy, fried, chicken bites with a crispy finish, and teriyaki sauce! This treat is soon to be served by the Kabuki Cafe in the Japan Pavilion and is a great option to grab just before you catch the tales of the hollow-round Daruma doll and learn Japanese customs of the New Year!

Be sure to stop by the Gelato kiosk to grab some Italian flavors of the season with some Panettone, (a sweet bread loaf) and sweet Moscato Wine and Ciocolata Calda (hot chocolate) before you settle in for a good story.
  • Mexico offers hot sweet tamales at La Catina de San Angel. This is a great opportunity to catch the Los Tres Reyes Mago, (the three kings) as they tell of their amazing journey and festive traditions of Mexico.
  • The Norway Pavilion is celebrating the Season with some traditional Rice Cream from Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe. While your there, be sure to listen in on the enchanting tales of the Christmas gnome all the way from Norway.
