Disney4me Posted November 4, 2020 Report Posted November 4, 2020 Welcome back to another what’s new! Today, we visited the Disney resorts that are on the monorail loop! Monorail While looking for the latest food, construction, and merchandise, we found some new holiday treats, an old favorite, and some transportation updates. So, let’s get started! Food Updates Disney’s Polynesian Resort In the Polynesian’s gift shop, Boutiki, we spotted the Honolulu Cookies back in stock! This is the first time they have been back in store since July! Honolulu Cookies A Cast Member told us these cookies are so popular that they get asked about them almost every day. These are some of the most delicious shortbread cookies we’ve ever had and we are so glad they are back! Honolulu Cookies These cookies come in a variety of packaging, including these beautiful tins! Honolulu Cookies Over at the quick-service spot, Captain Cook’s, we saw a few familiar favorites like the Mike cake and the Moana cake. We did notice that the Rocky Road Cupcake got an updated fall look! Rocky Road Cupcake We thought the new decor was a perfect way to celebrate fall! Christmas may be making its way into the parks, but we still love a good autumn treat. Rocky Road Cupcake At the Barefoot Pool Bar, we recently found an adorable coconut cup! And now, this little guy gets its own specialty drink, the Moku Niu. You are still able to get it with any drink you choose, but now there is a specialty option to go with it! Barefoot Pool Bar Although Holiday Glow Cubes are not on the menu here yet, we were able to snag one for our refreshing drink. Moku Niu Drink This drink brought us right to a tropical island, and we are here for it! You can grab the Moku Niu and the coconut for $21 and the holiday glow cube for $4.69. Check out our review of the Rocky Road cupcake with a makeover Disney’s Contemporary Resort In Disney’s Contemporary Resort, we passed by Contempo Cafe to check out any new menu items. We found the holiday cookies at this location! First up is the Gingerbread Cookie for $6.25. Gingerbread Man We also saw the Mickey Linzer Cookie available for $6.50. Mickey Linzer Cookie Plus, we tried the Chocolate Peppermint Cookie for $5.50. Chocolate Peppermint Cookie Some of these goodies were sold at the gingerbread displays last year, but now they are available at the Contempo Cafe! Over in the Bayview Gift Shop, we found several new holiday treats! HOLIDAY TREATS! We tried the returning Eggnog Fudge, the Gingerbread Mickey Cookie, the Mickey Santa Caramel Apple, and the Holiday Red Velvet Cupcake. We were surprised to see so many holiday treats at this location but we are not complaining! Read our review of the returning Eggnog Fudge Disney’s Wilderness Lodge At Wilderness Lodge, not much was new since our last visit. However, we got to try the Thanksgiving Cupcake now available at Roaring Fork! Thanksgiving Cupcake Our favorite part of the cupcake was the caramel filling on the inside. A delightful fall treat! Here’s our full review of the Thanksgiving Cupcake Construction Updates Polynesian Resort The Polynesian Resort is currently under construction as they do a Moana themed revamp to the resort. Because of this, the monorail no longer stops at the Polynesian. Polynesian Monorail Station Closed However, with the monorail no longer an option, the boats that run from the resorts to Magic Kingdom now stop at the Polynesian! While the monorail closure is temporary it is nice to have another mode of transportation to get to the parks.
