Disney4me Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 A few days ago we told you that Lucky Fortune Cookery in Disney California Adventure had introduced an all-new menu, and today we’re back to share our review on some of the new items!! Lucky Fortune Cookery And we hope you’re hungry…because this stuff is GOOD. We have loved this often-overlooked location for a long time and are happy to see that it is getting the recognition it deserves. This small quick-service location can be found in the Pacific Wharf area of Disney California Adventure. Lucky Fortune Cookery The previous menu had stuck around for about 10 years, but Lucky Fortune decided it was time for a change. Now, the build-your-own bowl experience is gone and there is a whole new assortment of meal options. Sadly, this takes the customization part out of the restaurant, but we think the new menu options are still really great. The New Menu The new menu features Teriyaki Chicken, Szechuan Chicken, a Beef Bulgogi Wrap, Vegan Banh Mi, and Pork Ramen. The side options include Chicken Wings, Pot Stickers, and Ramen Toppings. Lucky Fortune Cookery Menu Kids’ meals include Vegan Banh Mi and Chicken and Rice. A few new alcoholic beverage options have also been added to the menu, including the Lucky Dragon IPA and the Japanese Mule. Lucky Fortune Cookery Menu According to the chefs at Lucky Fortune, most of these meals are made from scratch, which is really great considering this is a quick-service location. Lucky Fortune Cookery The first thing we noticed was that Lucky Fortune has done away with takeout boxes and is now serving the food on nice, thick, black glass plates. This really elevated the entire dining experience and made it feel less like fast food. Entrées We love that many of these options are healthy alternatives to items from other quick-service locations in the park. So, let’s check out a few of the new menu items together! Beef Bulgogi Wrap The Beef Bulgogi Wrap ($13.99) is made with thin marinated beef, peppers, cabbage, and prawn crackers. Beef Bulgogi Wrap We have always loved the beef at Lucky Fortune Cookery and we were happy that this new beef option did not disappoint. The beef actually reminded us of the delicious meat found on Award Wieners’ Lava Fries. Beef Bulgogi Wrap Sadly, we weren’t too fond of the tortilla as it was tough to bite into, but we did enjoy the prawn crackers found inside the wrap. All of the veggies seemed fresh and the peppers didn’t make this wrap overwhelmingly spicy. Beef Bulgogi Wrap Szechuan Chicken Speaking of spicy, if you love a bit of heat in your food then the Szechuan Chicken is THE way to go. Szechuan Chicken This meal is $12.99 and is served with steamed rice and sautéed veggies. Szechuan Chicken Not only was the spice nice, but we thought that the portion size was amazing for the price. Szechuan Chicken Teriyaki Chicken The Teriyaki Chicken is also served with sautéed veggies and steamed rice and costs $12.99. Teriyaki Chicken We also thought that this was a great portion for the price. Teriyaki Chicken The veggies and chicken were cooked well and tasted very fresh. Teriyaki Chicken Our favorite part of the dish had to be the sauce; it wasn’t too sweet but added the perfect amount of flavor. Sides Now, onto the sides. We decided to check out the Pot Stickers ($6.49) this time around. Pot Stickers These are filled with chicken and veggies. Pot Stickers We were served four but thought they were quite small and a little overpriced. We did, however, think they were both crispy and yummy! Pot Stickers Beverages We also tried two of the new alcoholic beverage options — the Lucky Dragon IPA and the Japanese Mule. Pacific Wharf Menu Options Lucky Dragon IPA The Lucky Dragon IPA ($10.00) is a Pacific Wharf-exclusive! This drink has 100% Citra hops and is made with locally-sourced oranges and lemons. Lucky Dragon IPA If you love citrus then you will enjoy this beverage — the orange and lemon flavors came through really well. Japanese Mule The Japanese Mule ($12.50) is made with Japanese whiskey, ginger beer, and simple syrup. Japanese Mule This drink is VERY sweet but we still enjoyed it and thought it paired well with the food. Nosh or Not The new Lucky Fortune Cookery Menu will be great for you if: You’re in the mood for a hefty, yet healthy meal You love Asian food and are looking for a different type of quick-service dining experience Want to Mobile Order You can skip this meal if: You’re not a big fan of rice and veggies If you’re not super hungry Overall We honestly LOVED the new menu at Lucky Fortune Cookery. Everything felt very fresh and less like fast food, especially since the food was served on real dishes. The prices are not too high, which we really appreciated as well.
