The Scat Cat Lounge will interpret the groovy penthouse performance of 'Ev’erybody Wants to be a Cat' from Walt Disney Animation Studios' 'The Aristocats.' Hanging lanterns and a paw print-adorned baby grand piano will evoke the bohemian sophistication of the film’s Scat Cat character.

A direct extension of Disney Treasure's Grand Hall, Scat Cat Lounge will also take design cues from the Grand Hall’s Agrabah-inspired architecture with a complementary color palette. Cat symbols, hidden and overt, will be found throughout the space that offers live music and a craft cocktail menu.

Cat cocktails

Served to sip from a French-style ceramic bowl, the Créme de la Créme Martini will fuse cognac and chocolate into a rich, creamy dessert cocktail reminiscent of 'The Aristocats' kittens Marie, Toulouse and Berlioz’s favorite evening treat. The Cat Drink will combine clarified bourbon, amaro, Aperol and fresh lemon into a near translucent cocktail that shows off hand-crafted drinkware embossed with a cat image.

The Turkish Tea Experience, for two or more people, will honor the Agrabah-inspired Grand Hall with a tea-based cocktail presented in a bejeweled tea pot and gold-detailed teacups. 

'Guardians of the Galaxy' dinner

Worlds of Marvel, Disney Cruise Line’s Marvel-themed dining experience, will host Disney Treasure passengers on two nights, including a new offering with Rocket and Groot from the 'Guardians of the Galaxy' films.

'Marvel Celebration of Heroes: Groot Remix' will begin as diners partake in a celebration honoring the super heroes who keep the world safe. The story will unfold onscreen when Groot takes over the proceedings. The dinner will have songs from decades past and the chance for diners to test their knowledge of the Marvel universe.

The other night presents 'Avengers: Quantum Encounter' that follows Ant-Man and The Wasp on a mission to protect new Quantum Core technology from a fearsome foe.

Flavorful trip to Santa Cecilia

Plaza de Coco will transport diners to the town depicted in the Pixar Animation Studios film 'Coco' with traditional recipes from the Rivera family’s kitchen guiding a modern menu. Everyone in the familia will gather around the table for two celebratory evenings with food and theatrical entertainment.

Dishes include chorizo street croquettes with chili-lime crema, cotija cheese and cilantro; Luisa’s pollo asado with Michoacán citrus chicken, cilantro rice and serrano-tomatillo salsa; Enrique's port wine braised beef short rib; pan-seared adobo-spiced sea bass with seared scallops and a blistered poblano pepper stuffed with Oaxaca cheese, among others.

Deserts include Margarita lime cheesecake, Mexican chocolate tart and coconut tres leches.

Jumbeaux’s Sweets

Jumbeaux’s Sweets is inspired by the bustling mammal metropolis featured in Disney Animation’s 'Zootopia' and sells premium confections and pastries along with more than 35 flavors of handmade gelato, ice cream, plant-based frozen desserts and sorbets.

In a nod to Officer Judy Hopps’ humble upbringing on her family’s carrot farm are carrot cake and carrot chocolate-covered strawberries, while a paw shortbread sandwich will present an elevated take on Nick Wilde’s notorious 'pawpcicle.'

Disney Treasure is scheduled to sail its maiden seven-night voyage from Port Canaveral on Dec. 21.
