Favorite Things surprised us by actually having some of our favorite things at the 2024 Festival of Holidays.

Favorite Things Marketplace

At the 2024 Festival of Holidays, a festive food booth with an orange awning charms visitors in the vibrant Favorite Things Marketplace. A friendly server in a red shirt stands at a blue table, ready to serve delights under the sunny sky.

Menu Items

*NEW* Sticky Toffee Pudding Macaron – $8

Mickey-shaped chocolate macaron filled with vanilla buttercream, date cake, and salted toffee sauce

This is delicious and creamy inside with a crispy. delicate texture on the outside. The buttercream played well with the other ingredients. The presentation is great, and it was a crowd pleaser.

Braised Pork Belly Adobo – $9.50

with garlic rice  

This dish keeps coming back, but it’s not one of our favorite things. The pork rinds are usually stale and the rice crunchy. The pork belly is decent, though. It’s garlicky and falls apart easily.

*NEW* Spiced Coconut Cocktail – $17.50

Dark rum, spice tea, coconut purée, and evaporated and condensed milks garnished with nutmeg and a wafer stick

A hand holds a yellow cup filled with an iced yellow drink topped with a chocolate wafer, capturing one of life's favorite things. The background showcases a colorful outdoor setting, adding to the delightful scene.

This has a lot of ingredients that come together as what basically tastes like a delicious crafted Rumchata. It’s too bad that Disneyland Resort has to use the yellow cups to designate alcoholic beverages, because the presentation would’ve been really nice if it looked like the one on the menu. Appearances aside, we loved this.
