We were there this weekend, both days. Got there a few minutes after opening and went to DCA to get our candy cane wristbands. Our pickup time was 11:30, small line, no hassles at all. It's our first time getting them and they are awesome!
We tried a few holiday treats and some of the Festival Of Holidays booths:
Sugar Plum churro - delicious, I loved it, tasted like blackberry to me
Sour Apple churro with caramel dipping sauce - I didn't really care for this one but DH liked it, it does not smell good
Peppermint crunch shake at Schmoozies - OMG, this was soo good. It's beautiful and the whipped cream is a delightfully unnatural color
Pork Adobo - DH thought it was the best of what he tried, I'm not really a fan
Shrimp and grits - I really liked this, the andouille had a bit of a kick in some bites
Chorizo queso fundido - delicious, spicy, chips were really good
Pumpkin soup - it was good, I thought it would be more like butternut squash but it was much more savory and thick than I was expecting
Turkey tamale - this was good, tasted like turkey dinner, but it was kind of bland, cranberry was the strongest flavor so that's mostly what you tasted in every bite
Reuben tater tots - I love Reubens so these were great, would be really easy to make at home too
Also picked up the Alien Santa popcorn bucket, plenty left
There just was not enough time to eat everything, we were always full
