Here’s the Scoop – fav5 Ice Cream Treats
No Disney vacation would be complete without ice cream and we’ve compiled a short list of favorite frozen snacks.
-
Step into the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor in the Magic Kingdom for an old-fashioned cone, ice cream float, or our favorite, the Plaza Ice Cream Sundae. You can watch them making the waffle bowls that will be filled with all the fixings for a perfect sundae including hot fudge, whipped cream, and a cherry. Just down Main Street there’s a small side “street” with tables and chairs at the back; seldom busy and the perfect spot to enjoy your treat.
Don’t forget the classic – Mickey’s Premium Ice Cream Bar. Every Disney vacation should include a minimum daily requirement of this traditional favorite. With its hard chocolate shell and creamy vanilla center, it’s the quintessential taste of Disney.
-
At Downtown Disney, Ghirardelli Soda Fountain offers a fabulous selection of cones, shakes, and floats, and an irresistible menu of specialty sundaes including the Cable Car and Haight AshBerry. Bring a few friends and dive into the eight-scoop Earthquake.
-
We don’t know if it’s the best ice cream sundae ever, but it’s definitely the best place ever to enjoy that sundae; The Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant. Cool ice cream, cool cars, cool vintage movie clips – does it get any better than this?
-
We’ve saved the best for last; yes kids, it’s the Kitchen Sink! With eight
scoops of ice cream, an entire can of whipped cream, and every cookie, cake, sauce, and sprinkled topping that’s available, this is not for the faint of heart. Don’t expect to indulge without an audience, either, as announcements will be made to alert everyone in the place to your group’s gluttony.
