Food and Wine Festival

Post by yodiwan1 » Oct Sun 12, 2008 8:52 pm

So, I am going up at the end of the month to Epcot for the food and wine festival. I am trying to figure out 2 things. 1) my fiance is very picky about food, does anyone have a lsit of the foods offered this yaer? 2) prices. Anyone here been there yet and know the average price? Thanks in advance to all who respond back.

Average price for a sampling would be around 3-5 dollars, no tax. The cities/countries that are featured are pretty much the same as last year. This year they have added San Francisco and Louisiana.

Food & Wine is great...I enjoy the extra countries for food and alcohol but I'm also glad that it's only there for a few months as the extra space that World Showcase usually has is usually filled with long lines and extra buildings in the walking space.

Go to Tokyo. Try the Hana Raspberry Sake. It's sweet and you can hardly taste the alcohol. Kinda like the Kool Aid at Jellyrolls.

I had it a couple of nights ago, and I thought it was really strong. Good, though.

I was there last Monday and it was great except for the Alice in Wonderland music playing in the entrance area. It would've possibly been ok if they just played instrumentalized versions of Alice tunes, but it sounded like they just threw the soundtrack cd on. As I was walking through they were playing the part with the story of the Walrus And The Carpenter. Very distracting and out of place when standing under Spaceship Earth!
No one's gloomy or complaining while the flatware's entertaining.

The theme for this year is Cities in Wonderland.

I didn't think the music at the entrance was bothersome, probably because I just walk right past it. It did surprise me, though.

I absolutely love the Epcot Entrance theme so I hate when they change it for the themed festival or christmas time
