Gideon’s Bakehouse posted this, “Chocolate Haters! It’s your time to shine because the White Chocolate Caramel Macadamia Nut Returns! We can’t just give you a standard White Chocolate Mac Nut Cookie, oh no no no! Our homemade Salted Caramel is what powers up this traditional flavor. The caramel bakes right in and sometimes even explodes right out to offer you a fun cookie packed with flavors. Sweet, Salty, Soft, Crunchy, and here through the month of May!”

Two new items were added to the fabulous brunch menu at Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’. On social media, Homecomin’ announced and showed photos of the new Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich and Southern Poutine.

Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich

The Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich contains a large amount of food for breakfast, as the name implies. It features a maple pork sausage patty, crispy bacon, country ham, melted pimento cheese, bacon jam, and a perfectly fried egg between two slices of toasted sourdough.

Southern Poutine

The Southern Poutine takes a different approach to brunch. Crispy tater tots are smothered in pulled pork and sawmill gravy. After that, this version of breakfast comfort food comes topped with a fried egg and a bacon crumble to complete the Southern Poutine.  Brunch hours at Homecomin’ run from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on weekends.

Disney Spring always offers plenty of great dining choices. Just like at Gideon’s Bakehouse, things change quickly at Disney Springs. As always, eat like you mean it!
