It’s another beautiful day at EPCOT, ladies and gentlemen!

There’s been a lot to see in this park recently, with the Food & Wine festival wrapping up, holiday decorations arriving, several restaurants getting extended hours, and so much more! Let’s check out the main things we noticed here on our latest visit!
When the weather allows for it, it can be pretty nice to have a meal in the great outdoors — especially right now while we’re in the midst of a global pandemic.
Outside Dining Area
Health officials, including the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, consider dining outdoors to be a lower risk activity than dining indoors. Lucky for us, Disney has a lot of GREAT outdoor dining options, so you don’t have to feel limited. Let’s take a look at all the best places for that sunshine-y meal!
October has been quite an eventful month for EPCOT!

Since EPCOT reopened, the park has been keeping busy with the Taste of EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival as well as construction and character updates. (It’s also been the center of some major project and firework drama!)
This month alone we’ve seen a ton of changes while the theme park adapts to the new safety protocols and moves forward on attraction construction. Let’s take a look at the 5 most important changes we’ve seen happen at EPCOT this month!
Don’t you just love EPCOT? We know we sure do!

And we especially love to see all the NEW things at EPCOT since we last traveled around the world and into the future.

And, even though it kicked off on July 15th, we’re still enjoying fun Festival surprises along the way! For instance, Flavors from Fire recently joined the Festival Food Booth lineup, while the China Booth just delivered a new item (and one of our favorites, at that!).

We’ve been enjoying ALL the tasty things at the 2020 Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival and, we’ll just say, our stretchy pants have gotten a LOT of use lately!

We heard that one of our favorite booths would likely be joining the festival today, so we made our way to EPCOT today to take a peek!
Bonjour once again from EPCOT’s France pavilion! This is not our first visit to this lovely pavilion this week. We’ve been trying some of the new options recently added to the France Booth as part of the offerings for the 2020 Taste of EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival.
Feuilleté d’Escargot à la Crème d’Ail et Persil: Escargot in Puff Pastry with Garlic and Parsley Cream Sauce
A few days ago, a new Escargot in Puff Pastry dish joined the booth’s offerings. While we really like the new item, it took the place of another that we quite enjoyed, as well: the Goat Cheese Tart. So it took us happily by surprise today when we found that the Goat Cheese Tart has not disappeared completely: it has simply moved! [Read more…]
From beer flights to escargot, we’ve tried SO MANY delicious items from the 2020 Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival.

But, you can never have enough snack options at Disney. So, we were really excited to hear that more festival booths would be opening soon. Now, we’ve got some more details, that were shared to us by some Cast Members, on which new booths should be coming, and which booths will likely be limiting their operations.
