Summary

"We’re staring straight at Cinderella Castle with a Theme Park View at Disney’s Contemporary Resort and diving into an unforgettable stay filled with iconic eats, stunning sights, and plenty of Disney magic. We kick things off with a full breakdown of Chef Mickey’s breakfast buffet, sharing our thoughts on the food quality, character interactions, and whether the experience is worth the price tag. From smoked salmon and carved ham to omelets, croissant beignets, and Mickey himself, we cover it all. Then, we head to the top floor of the Contemporary for a bar-side experience at the California Grill, sampling small plates like the Blue Crab California Roll and Braised Beef Short Rib Wontons, all with a perfect view of Magic Kingdom. We also sneak in a visit to Steakhouse 71’s bar, take a dip in the pool, explore the resort’s PhotoPass and shopping options, and cap off the night with fireworks and the hot tub. Whether you’re planning your first stay at the Contemporary or just want a taste of what makes it so magical, this episode has everything you need to know—plus our final thoughts, favorite moments, and whether we’d do it all again."
