food IS a theme park
Happy Thanksgiving week! And although we’re still full from stuffing our faces with turkey and dressing, we’ve also been busy running all over the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays, checking out ALL the food.

But we’ve also kept an eye on Disney World restaurant menus, and this week only brought a few updates. So be sure to check that out, but also be sure to check out all our reviews of the food booths at the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays!
Hello from EPCOT!
We like to check in on all the Disney World parks regularly to make sure we keep up with everything going on! So, let’s take a look at what’s new in EPCOT.
We write a lot about Disney World, but there are other Disney Parks located all around the world!

Each Disney Park has a unique look, with many of the parks reflecting local cultural influences through the attractions, lands, architecture, and more. Fantasyland looks a little different in Disneyland Paris, and today we have a video with a behind-the-scenes tour!
EPCOT has some of the best food in Disney World, from the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival to restaurants all over the World Showcase. You might even say food is THE reason to visit EPCOT.

There are a LOT of quick service restaurants in EPCOT, and after we asked our readers to help us rank Magic Kingdom’s quick service spots we HAD to rank EPCOT too! We asked you, dear readers, to vote for ALL the quick service restaurants around EPCOT, and you might be surprised by the results!
No offense to the holidays, but EPCOT Food and Wine Festival might be the REAL “most wonderful time of year!” The festival has been underway for a few weeks now, and we’ve been eating and sipping our way through it!

Along the way, we’ve been met with all kinds of surprises…some good, and some…not so much. You know the feeling. When it comes to a colossal food fest like this one, there are just some things that pretty much EVERYONE is thinking but no one will say.
If you’re a Disney history fanatic, then you know that the parks are filled with rich backstories and intriguing details.
There are a lot of things you may not know about EPCOT!
EPCOT is no exception, with a history spanning nearly 4 decades. World Showcase is perhaps the most interesting part of the park, with 11 different countries represented throughout in unique ways. Each pavilion is such a solid interpretation of each country’s culture that it may leave you wondering how Disney pulls it off. But does Disney actually run these pavilions? Who owns the World Showcase pavilions, anyway?Â
Hello from EPCOT!
EPCOT!
We’re here in the parks alllll the time (it is Food and Wine Festival, after all), and we like to keep you updated with what’s new or different in the park. So, come along with us on a journey through EPCOT!
This last month was a MAJOR foodie month in Disney World! July was the official kickoff of the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival, but this month also included the Flavors of Florida event in Disney Springs, plus a ton of restaurants reopening like Citricos, Trail’s End, and ‘Ohana.
It’s Food and Wine Festival season once again!
As always, there were food items we absolutely loved, and there were other dishes that totally fell flat. Here’s our monthly roundup of the best and worst things we ate at Disney World for July!
Who doesn’t love Minnie ears? Especially brand NEW Minnie ears!
So many options!!
We’ve been seeing a lot of Minnie ears around the World Showcase in EPCOT, like these from Mexico, and these ears from France, and now we spotted some brand new ears in another country!
We spent the WHOLE DAY exploring EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival yesterday!
FOUR donuts. Oh yeah!!!
We’ve tried EVERY. SINGLE. ITEM. at the festival, and sure enough, we came away with some favorites. But, we gotta say, some of the festival eats made us feel a liiiiittle more guilty than others. Here are 6 guilty pleasures at EPCOT Food and Wine Festival!
