Fun at the Epcot Food & Wine Festival

October 7, 2014 by Amy 170 Comments

Every year I dream of going to the Epcot® International Food & Wine Festival presented by Chase.  And every year, like a good friend, I “like” all the photos on social media posted by my friends during their visit.  While I’m truly happy for them, I’m also secretly a little bit jealous.  I mean, really, I love food more than anyone I know (well, maybe except our editor, Merly.)

Amy & George

So, this year my husband and I made a decision to embark on a well-deserved and much anticipated mini get-away to the Happiest Place on Earth, Walt Disney World® Resort, for the opening weekend of the Epcot Food & Wine Festival (September 19 – November 10, 2014). That’s right, a romantic weekend with just my hubby, no children, and lots and lots and lots of food.  Ahhhhh!

Kiosk CollageWalking around the World Showcase and visiting all the kiosks was such a treat.  We made it a point to visit every one of them and try at least one food item.  And, in case you’re wondering, there are 36 kiosks.  Yes, I brought my stretchy pants.  The hardest part was deciding where we wanted to go first.  Also, even though we’re not big drinkers, we found ourselves trying wines and beers … and enjoying them.  After all, I guess it’s all about new experiences for your taste buds, right? (I’m now on a mission to find someplace locally that sells Peach Sake Gell.)

Of course, after eating our way around the world, we had to rank everything we tried.  For sheer embarrassment over the amount of food I consumed, I won’t tell you all of it, but here’s the best of the best according to Amy & George:

South Korea - Pork Lettuce WrapBest Asian Food: Pork Lettuce Wraps with Kimchi Sauce in South Korea I know you’re supposed to eat this using the lettuce as a wrap, but trust me, get a fork. The folks running the booth told me that the pork is slow cooked for hours, and I was so impressed with this dish that I asked our Test Kitchen to come up with our own version that I could make at home.  They got it right on and you can click here to get the recipe for yourself.

Brazil - Tilapia & Cheese BreadBest Latin American Food: Well, it’s hard to choose because there was such a variety: Brazil, Patagonia, Mexico, and Puerto Rico, and I have to say that these kiosks were the most fun.  Flamenco dancers, bongo players, guitarists and employees shouting, “EMPANADAS!” all transport you to another place and really give it an authentic feel.  OK – on to the food.  The Shrimp Tacos in Mexico were very good (or maybe it was because of the Sangria), but I think the Brazilian Cheese Bread stands out the most because I wanted ten more of them.  I know it doesn’t sound like much, but these little balls of cheesy goodness surprised me so much with their big flavor that I had to give them the title.

Greece - MoussakaBest Vegetarian Dish: Vegetarian Moussaka in Greece – served piping hot in adorable little ramekins. How do they make this taste so much like the real thing with no actual meat in it? I have no idea.

 

Germany - Sitting Area 2Best Memory Food: Apricot Filled Doughnuts from Germany.  I think the atmosphere of the grassy picnic area with wooden tables brought me back to my grandparent’s house in Pennsylvania where we would sit outside by the garden and eat Dutch-style pastries fresh out of the oven.

 

New Zealand - Venison SausageBest Unique Food:  We have a split decision on this one.  I love me some venison, which I don’t get to have often, so I say the Venison Sausage in New Zealand wins this award.  My husband, however, has an affinity for lamb and the Lamb Meatball from the same kiosk is his choice, which worked out fine since I didn’t have to share.  🙂

 

Farm Fresh - Pepper Bacon HashBest Surprise Food: At the Farm Fresh stand we found an unexpected taste sensation with the Pepper Bacon Hash.  The combination of jalapenos and hollandaise sauce will amaze you!

 

 

Belgium - WafflesBest Dessert: Belgium Waffles with Berry Cream Sauce – in Belgium of course!  I know you’re saying, what’s so special about a Belgium waffle, but you won’t believe how good these are.  Hold on to your hats, because our Test Kitchen actually recreated these, so you can enjoy them in your own home.  Click here for our version.

 

Canada - Filet MignonOverall Best Food: By unanimous decision … Filet Mignon Medallions with Mushrooms and Truffle Butter in Canada. Seriously, get one for every person; do not attempt to share or there will be a fight.

 

 

Of course there are plenty of beverages to try at the Festival, too.  Here are our favorites:

China - Bubble TeaBest Non-Alcoholic Beverage: Hands down the winner here is the Mango Green Tea with Poppin’ Bubbles from China.  I had three of these over the course of the weekend; they were so good!  Something about those little pearls bursting with mango juice made me feel like a kid again, which is okay because I was in Disney!

 

Japan - Spice Hand Roll & Sake GellBest Alcoholic Beverage: We enjoy sweeter wines so the Reisling flight in Germany was delightful, but if you like sweet and want to try something different, stop by Japan and try the Peach Sake Gell.  This chilled, fizzy drink has slurps of jiggling, peachy gems enticing you to have one more sip and it’s soooo refreshing in the hot Florida sun.

Sadly, our magical vacation had to come to an end, but I have great memories, photos, a passport book and cool souvenir plates to keep me going until next year.   Oh, you bet I’ll be going back…I might even bring the kids next time…or not.

Passport

These passports were available at every kiosk. It was a great way to keep track of our tasting adventure!

Pick up one of these souvenir plates up before you begin your eating spree – you’ll be glad you did!

    Love it! I went to Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival for the first time last year, and I plan to go again. My favorite food was the trout served in Canada – ◾Seared Rainbow Trout with Bacon, Frisee and Maple Minus 8 Vinaigrette . My family would love a Mr. Food version of that! Favorite veggies were, BY FAR, Scotland’s ◾Vegetarian haggis with neeps and tatties. We stood in line twice for it. Again, would love a recipe 🙂
    Now, I really like wine and don’t particularly enjoy beer. So imagine my surprise that my absolute favorite beverage was… a beer! ◾Schöfferhofer Grapefruit , it is beer mixed with grapefruit juice. Sounds gross, tastes light and refreshing. I recall being too full to try any desserts – a mistake I won’t make again. Can’t wait to go say “Hi!” to Mickey and all his pals real soon

    Wow. It sounds like you and your husband had a great time. Time away with one of your favorite people is always great but time away with great food and wine/beer is even better. Its been years since I’ve had the chance to visit the Food and Wine Festival at Epcot and after reading your review, I’m hungry to go again. I don’t know if we’d like the same things, but I’m willing to explore all the great foods you tried and then some. Glad you had a good time. Thanks for the awesome review.

We usually go around the lake twice to make sure we don’t miss out on anything. Loved the feedback. I encourage everyone to enjoy it.

    As an annual passholder local to the area, I go frequently during this event. The crowds can be daunting, yet the lines move quickly. Here are the highlights, & lowlights, between France and Singapore (right outside of the Germany mini pavillion):
    France: Ahhhhh! Finally updated and reinvented Escargot! Plump, not rubbery, in a spinach cream sauce served within a garlic tart. For those that adore mushrooms, the gruyere and mushroom dish is almost a a mac n cheese. The carmel creme brulee is good but more like a butterscotch pudding with a brulee.

    Morocco: Do NOT–don’t even waste the $5 bucks– on the “Spicy Shrimp Roll”! Frozen egg roll without shrimp, just shrimp flavored sauce, and a touch of medium spiced red sauce. They should be embarrassed to sell this! By pass and go into the quick serve and ask for Hummus with the pita chips ($3), Marinated Olives with the pita chips ($3) and/or the Tabbolueh ($3). I don’t care for cold, sweet Couscous yet theirs is excellent…and only $3 for the side!

    Brazil: The Pork Belly was a stand out. Not overly found of the beans, but made it more Brazilian tasting. The fish was only okay.

    Japan: With the prevalence of Sushi, not worth going if you have locally good places. Go over to the hut with the snowcones and get the Krian Beer with a lime slush floater. Amazing and I don’t drink much beer!

    USA: Avoid the Lobster Alfredo. Nice concept, thin sauce and rubbery lobster (same feedback over the course of many visits when asking those around eating it). Slider was okay, not worth the price (Go to the Odyssey for their Pimento Cheese spread–much tastier!).

    Italy: If you like sweet wine, try the Sparkling Rosa Regal–truly a present for your taste buds. I am Italian descent and lived there, so I don’t usually eat things I can get at home. However, the cannoli is a standout. Perfect few bites of sweetness. The rest is good, but what you can get in any good Italian joint, so don’t waste your money.

    Germany: The schneckenknudle is a GREAT mac n cheese with ham! Yummy crust from the gruy and not gloppy.

    Singapore: The Coconut Curry Chicken was quite good but the rice was undercooked, so I took it back just for the chicken with sauce. I’m a huge fan of Southeast Asian and this didn’t disappoint. I didn’t think it was spicy but those with a sensitivity to that hot red pepper beware. The fish was okay–nothing special.

    Enjoy your tasting around the world!

    I live in South Florida and visit the Orlando area quite frequently since it is three hours away. I have been to Epcot a few times, but have yet to experience the Epcot Food & Wine Festival. If I go, I would love to try the Ravioli alla caprese (Cheese ravioli, tomato sauce, mozzarella, parmesan and basil) from the Italy area of Epcot.

    I loved your review, I’ve been to Epcot many times and Disney World as well. Being an only child and only grandchild who’s grandparents lived 3 hours from Disney World will earn you lots of visits. But I have to say its been the visits I took as an adult that meant the most to me perhaps. I really need to start planning our next trip there and a gc would certainly help!
