Epcot Food & Wine Festival Review
This past Saturday night Ryan and I went to the Epcot Food and Wine Festival. It was a blast. It combined disney and food! As we made our way around the world, we rated each country's food and beverages.
My top 10 ranking (based on taste, presentation, and uniqueness) is the following (I'll have Ryan post his soon):
1. Mexico (tamal de pollo and passion fruit margarita)
2. Argentina (roasted corn and cheese empanada and steak with chimichurri)
3. Brazil (didn't have the food but their drink was the best all night, and I still can't pronounce it- leblon frozen caiprinha)
4. Japan (spicy tuna roll and california roll)
5. South Korea (barbeque short ribs with steamed rice and cucumber kimchi)
6. China (pork pot stickers)
7. Desserts and Champagne (trio of strawberry short cake, pear streusel, and dark chocolate with moet and chandon)
8. charcuterie and cheese (Ace Joker hard cider)
9. France (while the line for the outside station was way too long, by far the most popular, we stuck to the Pommery champagne inside, delicious as always)
10. Italy (baked cheese ravioli with creamy bolognese sauce with melted mozzarella and proseco)
11. Spain (serrano ham, chorizo, manchego, olive, and tomato bread with cava)
12. Germany (nurnberger sausage in a pretzel roll and riesling)
13. Morocco (beef in a pita pocket and sangria)
Hops & Barley (Ryan had the pecan bread pudding, I did not due to my strong aversion of nuts!)
The Mexico and Argentina food options were delicious and some of the most affordable. We are going to try to go back soon. Pictures include food from: Argentina, Mexico, China, South Korea, Japan, Italy, Morocco, Spain, cider, and dessert.
