Over near Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, KRNR The Rock Station has added two new flavors macaroni and cheese to the menu! According to a Cast Member, they will remove hotdogs from the menu and will instead feature macaroni and cheese on August 29th.
NEW Mac and Cheese!!
During our visit, we tried the Buffalo Chicken Macaroni and Cheese, and (spoiler alert) it was delicious! We loved the chicken bites and bleu cheese, though we would’ve loved even MORE bleu cheese.
