food IS a theme park
Summer can’t come fast enough at World Showcase! With the massive transformation happening in Epcot over the next couple of years, it’s exciting to see some progress as we near the opening of some highly anticipated attractions and dining offerings!

With the exciting opening of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure in the France Pavilion coming SOON, we also have our sights set on a new restaurant that showed some signs of life today!
While 2019 brought us Disney’s Skyliner, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and of course, Rise of the Resistance, we’re ready for 2021! That’s because Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure will be opening this year and we can’t wait to “rat around” on this new Disney attraction!

Here’s the scoop on everything you need to know about this fabulous new ride coming to Walt Disney World!
Joyeux Noël! We have a tasty returning treat from L’Artisan des Glaces to share with you today!

Festival of the Holidays is in full swing in Epcot so let’s jump right in and chat about what you can find in the France Pavilion!
While eating our way around this year’s Festival of the Holidays we stopped by the France Pavilion for one of our fav holiday treats.
We’ve seen a lot of returning favorites show up at this year’s festival in World Showcase, but this classic holiday treat has a new (old!) twist for 2019!
The opening day for the 2019 International Epcot Food and Wine Festival is almost here!
Epcot’s International Food and Wine Festival
We know there are TONS of new booths and menu items hitting the promenade this year — from that AH-MAZING Raclette cheese at the Alps Booth to our-brand-new-favorite Mule Beer at Coastal Eats! And we TOTALLY got the chance to try a ton of them today! We can’t wait to share our reviews and photos with you!
Bonjour from France — well, Epcot’s France, of course! The French Pavilion has long been a favorite of ours — and recently they have crushed it (as always) with treats like the Frosé and the new version of the Frangipane!
Les Halles Frose
But today, we are sharing something food related — though not edible. We were strolling through France when we spotted the CUTEST jacket that we just HAD to share with you ASAP!
If you’ve ever reviewed a list of dining options in Epcot’s World Showcase at Walt Disney World, you may have noticed that some pavilions have more eateries than others. France and Japan, in particular, not only have several restaurants each, they’re both in the process of adding new restaurants as well, which will bring the restaurant total in France to five and in Japan to four.

The answer to this question is a little complicated. You may think that the inequality is due to French and Japanese cuisine being more celebrated in the real world, and thus restaurants in these pavilions are naturally more popular. [Read more…]
Bonjour
from France! Epcot’s France pavilion, that is. This is where where we spotted a new refreshing-sounding beverage at Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie this week that we just had to try now that the Florida summer heat is most definitely upon us.
Frosé
Introducing the all new Frosé!
This is for all you Pumpkin Spice fans out there! Nope, we’re not done with Pumpkin Spice announcements quite yet… Guess what’s back in Epcot’s France Pavilion? You guessed it: the Pumpkin Spice Macaron Ice Cream Sandwich at L’Artisan des Glaces!!

The return of what’s become a fall snacking tradition makes the pumpkin spice season complete!
I’m so excited that the Epcot Food and Wine Festival is just around the corner! Mark your calendars for August 31-November 13, when we celebrate 75 incredible days of food, wine, and more!
The festival begins earlier than ever before this year, so we’re busy preparing and planning to make the most of our time there. And I suggest you do the same!
While taking in Low Cost Seminars and Demonstrations or splurging on a Special Event or two is super fun, my favorite festival pastime is still strolling along the World Showcase Promenade and taking in both new and familiar eats and drinks at the festival Marketplace Booths.
Hops and Barley Booth
While we await news of just exactly what that means, and to see what if any new booths are announced, today we’re sharing the five booths you absolutely cannot miss at the Epcot Food and Wine Festival this year!
There’s always something fun and new to look forward to each year. And this year will be no exception. Disney promises 35 booths to celebrate 35 years of Epcot awesomeness. So far, we’re getting a look at two newly returning booths that promise to offer some delicious and exotic fare.
, last seen on the World Showcase Promenade in 2010, returns to the festival this year. Since Spain has a rich culture of beautifully prepared regional foods, we look forward to seeing this menu!
So far, we’ve confirmed a new Spain menu item, Charcuterie in a Cone. What a cool way to have your snack and stroll with it too. 😀 I’m pretty sure this plus a glass of Spanish wine will be very nice on a festival evening.

In addition, there’s a very real chance that we’ll see variations on dishes that have been featured here before. Look for possibilities such as Seared Albacore Tuna with Romesco Sauce, Snapper Escabeche, Spanish Almond Cake, or Crema Catalana, along with some interesting Spanish wines and beer.
