My last Disney snack of the trip was in MK. After some final rides (including Space Mountain and Pirates of the Caribbean), I headed down Main Street for the last time. However, this time I stopped at the Confectionery, hoping to find a new treat that I'd read about (this was before every single review started mentioning it!
).
When I approached the counter, I didn't see any pieces of chocolate-covered pineapple on display, so I asked a CM if they had it. Two CMs went to the back, and sure enough they returned with a thick wedge of pineapple on a stick, covered in chocolate.
If you recall, back in July I tried the similar
dark chocolate & caramel-covered grapes at Epcot. This snack disappointed me, primarily because there was just too much chocolate relative to the amount of grape. The balance of flavors didn't feel right, IMO. This snack, however, was a different story. The pineapple was thick and juicy, with plenty of acidity that added a flavorful counterpoint to the chocolate. This snack was fantastic.
I took this shot to showcase the beautiful view I had while savoring this snack. Don't worry - there's a better pic of the pineapple.
Here's the money shot! A cross-section so you can admire all the pineapple goodness.
After finishing my pineapple, I walked over to the Contemporary, where I noticed this interesting sign in the lobby (it wasn't in the lobby the day before, which is why it especially stood out to me).
And that's why I spontaneously decided to try out The Wave's new
lunch buffet (which no longer exists
). Then it was time to leave Wilderness Lodge, which was really sad, as it's one of my favorite places to be.
Here are some final pictures of it.
Now there's just one update left. This has been one of my absolute favorite dining reports to write, and I can't believe it'll be over soon.
