Epcot Food & Wine Festival

The 15th Annual Food & Wine Festival at Epcot ended last week.  It was a 45 day festival in the World Showcase with 28 kiosks with food and drinks from around the world.

Of course I've been to Epcot many times, during the festival even!  But it wasn't until Rachel was here that I actually tried some of the food.  We even got a passport for the festival and got a stamp at each of the 28 kiosks.  It was a lot of fun!


We tried Nectar Imperial from Desserts & Champagne, grilled beef skewer with chimichurri sauce and boniato puree from Argentina (yum!), pork pot stickers from China, Altenmunster Marsen from Brewer's Collection, Nuremberger sausage in a pretzel roll from Germany, baked cheese ravioli, creamy bolognese sauce, and melted mozzarella from Italy, spicy tuna roll from Japan, falafel pita pocket from Morocco (not yum!), Paul Cheneau "Lady" Blanc de Clancs Cava from Spain, Creme Brulee au Chocolat au Lait from France, warm chocolate lava cake with Bailey's Irish Cream ganache from Ireland, and Canadian cheddar cheese soup from Canada.

We got to cross something off on each page, but we came no were near finishing.  And we didn't even get the stamp you get for getting all the stamps!  Boo!  The kiosks were...

So thanks, Rach for coming out!  It was only a few hours, but it was a lot of fun!!
