Universal Studios Florida

Ale Braised Beef Short Rib Sliders at Finnegan’s Bar & Grill – White cheddar, cabbage slaw, Tabasco onions, applewood smoked bacon, melted sharp cheddar cheese, sliced scallions, pretzel rolls.

Chef Ron: “Everybody loves the bar at Finnegan’s. Especially the Passholders, so I thought let’s find something that will key in with them. I knew these sliders had worked out good for me originally and I felt like people would enjoy them as a nice little meal to have with a pint of beer.”

Mediterranean Lamb Bowl at Mythos Restaurant – Spiced ground lamb, house-made hummus, turmeric rice, tomato, cucumber, feta and charred pita.

Chef Jason: “Obviously when you are working with Mediterranean food, people think of lamb. But we’ve never had something like this at a lower price point with lamb. We know there are a lot of other places people can spend their money, but the fact that our Passholders choose us and bring their family here? No matter if they’re getting a hot dog or full service, they deserve the best at a reasonable price.”

Roasted Cauliflower Steak at Confisco Grille – Lemon-garlic roasted cauliflower, romesco sauce, stewed beluga lentils, toasted almonds.

Chef Jason: “I’ve been thinking about that cauliflower steak for about 8 months. Researching it, playing around with it. We got some feedback from last year that there were a lot of great dishes, but there weren’t really any plant-based options. That’s why, for this year, I decided to go with the Cauliflower Steak.”

Universal CityWalk

Chocolate Waffle at The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen– Chocolate batter waffle topped with chocolate chunks, white whipped cream, chocolate raspberry sauce, chocolate shavings, powdered sugar and micro mint.

Chef Jonathon: “We get quite a bit of requests for chocolate chips in or on our waffles, so I was like, let’s go extravagant and go all-chocolate all across the board for a waffle!”
