 Hey friends today, we're hanging out at Disney's French Quarter Resort I wanted to come out and try the red hot Mickey shaped beignets. They look absolutely amazing and maybe a cup of gumbo as well I am a little bit hungry and then later on we're actually gonna go to scat cat's club and watch some live jazz music with Some friends and it's gonna be a fun festive night. Anyhoo's, let's go do this. I Love hanging out at Disney's French Quarter Resort It is so beautiful here and it's even better to come hang out during the Mardi Gras season The beignets are phenomenal and like I said, they have some special edition ones that we're gonna try today And it's just a beautiful quiet resort Disney's French Quarter Resort and Port Orleans Resort is kind of the same They're really right next to each other You can actually walk back and forth and they're both so amazing and probably one of the best Adult-oriented resorts. I feel like it is so quiet over on French Quarter side and everything is just beautiful and Port Orleans It's such a fun time. So we're gonna explore around a little bit. It's almost sunset So we're gonna see probably an amazing sunset. Then we're gonna get some food and meet up with our friends Ever since going over to Universal Studios and getting the gumbo and the beignets over there I've been thinking about coming back over here So I can get the Mickey beignets and the gumbo because the gumbo is phenomenal too I also believe that French Quarter has probably one of the best quick service locations because they have Jambalaya, hot beef sandwiches, gumbo, some really awesome things And like I said before the Scat Cats Club is now open again and the live Entertainment's back. The jazz music is there and it's gonna be really chilled vibes and I'm excited for that As you can see here is a little look at the resort map Here is Port Orleans Riverside and it's such a massive resort and then down here is Port Orleans French Quarter and this is where we're at right now and Yeah, like isn't it so big it is really really massive They even have multiple different forms of transportation that take you back and forth to the resorts They have buses or they have boats and they even have horse-drawn carriages that you can rent That'll take you back and forth and those just recently came back out So I was hoping to see a horse today. Maybe we will French Quarter side is just so fun to walk around and look at all the decorations and the resort itself It is really beautiful. I want to show you the pool area that but there's probably a lot of people swimming over there But they have a gigantic sea serpent in the pool and I think his name is scales And I think that's kind of funny, but look at the little alligators here This one looks a little like he's up to something doesn't he? I'm gonna place a mobile order to get myself some gumbo and then some beignets and until it's ready I think we're just gonna walk around a little bit I'm gonna show you the outside of the rooms because those are so pretty as well just like I said walking around You're gonna be like wow and I know I've come here before but it's always nice to come back Especially during the Mardi Gras season. I Love everything from the lamp post and Neptune's parade to the street signs to the buildings themselves too I think it looks so beautiful here Let me know if you guys are from you know the French Quarter area if you've been there before and this is kind of what it looks Like I've never been there before and I like how they have the horse jollies right here, too I still haven't seen my horse. You know, maybe we can count this little guy as one though. Yeah, there we go Well that did not take long at all But I just got the notification our gumbo is ready and I am so excited. I love the gumbo here It is so so good and we're gonna head inside and eat We're gonna head on in the good old sassu gula float works food factory for some gumbo and then later on We're gonna go get some beignets some Mickey shaped beignets Like I said before this is one of my favorite quick service location, especially when it comes to resort food because it's so unique Like I said before this is one of my favorite quick service locations Especially when it comes to resort food because it's so unique and different They've got so many different offerings chicken, parm pasta with meatballs pot roast Walt Disney's bread bowl chili Then they've got jambalaya gumbo a prime rib dip a signature pomito bacon and cheese Cheeseburger and then tons of other like desserts Mardi Gras king cake cupcakes and of course the beignets So I wanted to show you guys the gumbo and I wanted to show you the jambalaya And I thought that I was getting like a small cup of gumbo because it was only eight dollars But look at this. This is massive. Isn't it? That's a big portion and fully eight dollars Like that's kind of unheard of but Disney and then this is the jambalaya and this was eleven dollars So this was an under twenty dollar meal right here and I think that is amazing, right? Under twenty dollars look at all the food you get and I can't wait to dive in First let's grab some of this gumbo here got to get the rice. You're gonna try it on its own first Alert alert. There's it. There's a horse Look at that. I told you we were gonna see a horse today So you can just sit here and enjoy some gumbo and jambalaya and see a horse just dropped by That is so amazing. That makes me so happy. I can hear his little clops his little clops That is cool. Okay back to the gumbo business Gotta try there's another horse coming Would you look at that? There is another horse come on. We got to try the gumbo here So good man. I love it and you can't beat the price for eight dollars for this Okay, now we're gonna slide in the jambalaya gonna try this on its own and also that cornbread. Oh, yeah That's gonna come in handy later on why I use it to dab inside the gumbo there That's gonna be phenomenal The jambalaya has sausage and chicken in there So we're gonna want to try to get a little bit of everything in one bite, you know, that's the way None of this is actually really spicy a little bit spicy on the jambalaya, but not too much. So here we go And now ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Gumbo Laya We're gonna take a little bit of the jambalaya. We're gonna put it in the gumbo and we're gonna make Gumbo Laya. I have done it before folks and let me tell you it is so good the good old Gumbo Laya This is such an amazing combination. I love it. I'll get it every single time Now it's time to dip that cornbread in there And this is gonna be so good. The cornbread is absolutely amazing as well. I think I say absolutely amazing a lot I'm gonna have to put that on the fancy count Honestly, I don't think you can get a better meal on Disney property for under $20 in this right here It is so so good and with the cornbread. I love it I'm calling it quits though. I don't think I can finish that is so much food I was just a little shocked and I think this happens to me every time I come here because I think I'm getting like A small bowl or a small cup of gumbo and then I end up getting this gigantic thing So I think this happened to me plenty of times in the past and I keep on making the same mistake But oh well, it's a good mistake. I Think I'm gonna wait to get Mickey Benye's when my friends get here because they actually sell them in like multiple like Numbers so you can get like six or you can get 12 or you can get three and they have boozy Benye's So they have Benye's with alcohol inside them So I kind of want to show you all of them, but I don't want to order all of them because I'm not gonna be able to Eat all of them. So if we do it with some friends, we're gonna be able to let them up and share them and show them And I think that's what we're gonna do. That's a smart idea Now I want to head back inside the main lobby and I want to show you where the Benye's are at and also show You the red hot Benye's those are the ones I'm looking forward to the most those are for Valentine's Day And they look so pretty Right next to the sasa gula float works food factory is the scat cat's club cafe Now this isn't the scat cat's club lounge But this is where you get the Benye's and they got the Mickey shaped Benye's they sell them three for six ninety nine or six For ten ninety nine and then they got specially Benye's and then they've got the boozy Benye's There's a lot the Baton Rouge Benye's to Benye's jazzed up with your choice of Bailey's Irish cream Koola or rum chada. They also have a special Boozy Benye that they're doing for Valentine's Day and that's the one I want to show you Here is a look at some of those Benye's that's the one in the back the cinnamon sugar I don't know this is the cinnamon sugar. That's the red hot Benye in the back there So a lot of cool specialty ones So we're definitely gonna try some of those and then here's the boozy Benye's and this one is the special one Oh, they all look so so good It looks like the red hot Mickey shaped Benye's are sold individually for three ninety nine So I think we're gonna get those and then the special fireball boozy Benye's And then try all the Benye's once we get scat cat's lounge with all of our friends. I Love the inside of this little cafe here. It's like a quiet little Benye cafe and they used to have board games in here I remember I don't think they do that anymore but we used to have board games were you able to just sit down play some games and Kind of relax. So it's definitely changed over the years And here they are take a look at these precious little beauties So this is the hot cinnamon icing on a regular Mickey Benye Now there's no pot of sugar on this it looks like a little bit And then these are the baton rouge Benye's and these ones are for Valentine's Day Because they give you the hot cinnamon sauce and then fireball as shots inside them. So I'm so excited I think we're gonna we're gonna dive in we're gonna try these and I hope they're not too hot. We'll find out First things first, let's go with the classic Mickey Benye here and we're gonna break it in half But of course, we're gonna eat ears first. Oh, wow, this literally comes apart so easily look at that But here we go ears first The hot cinnamon sauce is not that hot and also comes with a little hot cinnamon candies as well But I like this. I like the regular Mickey Benye's a little bit better though I wouldn't want to like not come get regular Mickey Benye's and get these instead Mickey Benye's like regular with just pot of sugar. That's the way to go Now we're gonna try the fireball Benye's here and this looks like it's a little bit difficult like very difficult It might be a mess here. So I'm gonna pull up the plate here. So I think you squirt this in here Like that. Oh boy. Yep, squirt that in there. We did I'm gonna take some of it out and we're gonna bite into it here Wow, let me still have some fireball here, so I'm gonna give it a little squirt. There we go Oh Okay, that's why I Love it I'm gonna show you guys how we booze you up the Benye's here We're gonna stick this in right here and then give it a little give it a little juice That's the way And that's how you do it Whoo, these are so so good and if you don't like cinnamon stuff I highly suggest you get the regular Benye's With the regular Van Rouge Benye's with rum chada or couloula because that is phenomenal But these I kind of like them and stripping it's dripping a little bit And you know what I think is crazy the fact that we just got two shots of fireball whiskey and two Benye's for ten dollars I think one shot of fireball at the bar probably is ten dollars So this is kind of like a hack If you like shots of fireball come in grab some Benye's you'll get pretty much double your money's worth And now that we've had our Red Hop Benye's it's time to head into scat cat's lounge So we have more Benye's and listen to some music and hang out with friends It looks like the music has already started so if you go right to the left So this is where we got our Benye's from and to the left is the lounge itself and look how cool it is in here It's like you're really walking into a jazz club I really really do like it in here And we have a nice little table set up over in the corner here with all of our friends. They got here early Look at how cool this is though Looks like they got some specialty cocktails here and there's a lot of good ones I'm not too sure which one I want to get but I think I might want to get this bourbon peach tea That sounds phenomenal Here is our group of friends. We've got promise and Travis. Oh, Palantines. Yes. Yes. It's a Palantines day So it's Valentine's for pals. Yeah Ashland's over there dating in Disney. We've got LBV Yeah, Kristen would write down Main Street and Shannon with the second star collective. So we're all just hanging out enjoying The Palantines, yes Oh, yeah, and Maria actually brought a gigantic king cake from New Orleans Okay, Kate Killabrew sent it She dropped it down nice Well, I'm excited so we're gonna break the cake open and it's gonna be fun. Oh find the baby Maria is gonna get the baby. Yep This is the best place to eat king cake probably I feel like right That's what I mean When I was eating my boozy been yay I didn't want to inject all of like the fireball into the venue Cuz I didn't want it to be really sloppy and I wanted to show you guys now some people like just put the whole shop Right in the been yay, and then just let it all soak up and eat it But I was like really dainty with it and now I have Basically a shot of fireball waiting because I've already in the been yay So I think I'm gonna finish it up and I'm just get I mean, I'm not gonna waste it I paid nine dollars for it. So I'm going for it. I'm just gonna shoot it, but shoot it like you know what I mean That was good And this is whiskey right That's fireball in there Oh You're going all in oh she went all in see if they start dribbling out Yeah, that's what I did. I was very like dainty with that Very boozy And here's my peach tea they put it on a nice little mason jar. I like this this looks really really good There we go, so everybody cheers cheers I didn't touch anybody's glass there we go Tamarind raw So this is Woodford bourbon and also peach knobs and sweet tea We're going for it That's smooth very very smooth This is so so smooth. I don't taste the bourbon at all I do taste like a little bit of peach in the tea, but this is like a very refreshing beverage itself Oh, and it looks like we're cutting the king cake here. Oh That is a big cake Yeah, Chris is smuggling in king cakes here The king cake smuggler King cake smuggler I like it So we just realized that the baby is not inside the king cake you actually have to put the baby in the cake so Chris is choosing himself as a person to hide the baby and Hopefully, you know one of us is gonna get it. It's gonna be a baby surprise Yeah, good luck. Yeah. Oh, there we go. We're back. Nice If you're feeling good, let me hear you say Thank you Some music for you really quick.

She wanna sell my monkey She wanna sell my monkey Oh So wow the scat cat club is so much fun I love the band in there the jazz fusion. They are really really awesome And it's just a really cool atmosphere now I think we're gonna actually walk over to Riverside and see if we can catch yee-ha Bob I mean might as well they both are playing like from 8 o'clock till 12 30 at night and it's only 9 o'clock now So the night is young All right. Are you guys ready for Orleans now? Yeah Riverside yee-ha Bob Yep yee-ha Bob all the way we got such a fun group It's time to roll out So I actually think it's only about a five-minute walk from French Quarter to Port Orleans But we're gonna time it to see exactly how long it takes, but it's it's a beautiful walk It's so nice especially at night. I really do love it It really is such a peaceful resort though compared to like staying at all stars or any of the other resorts It's like really loud, but you can hear crickets as we're walking around making our way down by the water bend I think it's Jiminy. Oh, it's Jiminy Cricket. Yes it could be It's so nice actually this walk over and seeing the boats going back and forth and the wake in the water And we're almost there five minutes in Disney's Port Orleans resort Riverside right underneath the bridge there And we have made it to Port Orleans Riverside Hopefully, there's a lot of room in there. Oh, look at the grand entry to the river was come on in. Thank you Oh, he looks he's still full Well, it looks like yee-ha Bob isn't playing tonight still some live entertainment and It's a pretty full house. So I don't know if we're gonna get a table, but that's really awesome I'm a little sad. There's no yee-ha Bob, but I guess we should have checked first Good good night. You got a feeling Whoa Tonight's the night Maybe yee-ha Bob had some prior engagement that he had to attend to tonight So, uh, they have a fill in for him and I didn't catch his name So hopefully he can catch his name, but he seems like he's a fun fellow Like, you know, he seems like he's having a good time up there. He doesn't have that excitement though Like yee-ha bob boy His name is Tom Casey Tom Casey I'm a soul man See he's doing a good job Oh After hanging around a little bit in the river roast, I think we're gonna call it a day I do miss yee-ha Bob, but you know, the man's gotta take a day off sometimes You never know things come up in life and uh, I'm glad they have somebody in there now. He was actually really good He was really nice entertaining. He played a electric keyboard, but he wasn't like on the piano like yee-ha bob would So, uh, hopefully we'll come back eventually another night show you what a real like yee-ha bob river roast would be about And uh, have a little fun. So I hope you enjoyed the video. I enjoyed making it. We'll see you next time Bye
