Yay!  The Warm Raclette Swiss Cheese at The Alps booth and the “Le Cellier” Wild Mushroom Beef Filet Mignon with truffle-butter sauce are both on the list of returning items at Food & Wine this year.  They are particular favorites in our family. And among the new items at the festival, we’re looking forward to the Mini Piña Colada Funnel Cake with piña colada ice cream, whipped cream, toasted coconut, and maraschino cherry drizzled with coconut-rum sauce at the funnel cake booth.  Grab your fork and let’s go!

The 2022 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival  returns to Florida on July 14 and runs through November 19, bringing with it more than 25 Global Marketplaces (also known to the rest of us as food booths), with small bite plates from six continents. 

 

There will be a new marketplace added to the festival this year. The Fry Basket, serving specialty French fries including a Fry Flight (!), will be joining the line-up.  Several booths, including Hawaii, Brew-Wing, Coastal Eats, Mac & Eats, and The Noodle Exchange, will open later than the other booths, on August 11.  

 

The Eat to the Beat Concert Series will be back, and two family activities including Remy’s Ratatouille Hide & Squeak scavenger hunt and Emile’s Fromage Montage food stroll will also provide entertainment.
