Lots of menu news, photos and reviews being posted to Disney Food Blog...http://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2015/09/24/best-of-the-fest-what-to-eat-at-the-2015-epcot-food-and-wine-festival/ A few excerpts below. Some yummy looking stuff!! Wow, all of that looks great, and the portion sizes look generous. I'll have to order some of these same items and post photos to show what they are actually serving guests who have to pay for their food. These bloggers have it made.

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 That photo of the "Vegan Korean Barbecue with Steamed Rice and Cucumber Kimchi" in Mo's post above got me worried. That's not something I recall them having at the South Korea booth. So, I had to hunt down the menu. And my fears were realized. Please join me in a moment of silence for our dear departed friend, the Kimchi Dog. And does anyone really think it's a good idea to eat vegan Korean BBQ? TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 ummmm.... nope. It looks pretty good in the photo. I'm going to go for it. Heck, I ate a Kimchi Dog. That can't be too much worse. TCD BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
keith_h 420 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 There is no reason they couldn't have kept the Kim-chi Dog and still provided for our vegan friends. Now I have another reason not to visit the parks in November. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Why is the food on plates, and not in the ubiquitous cardboard "boats" everything else is served in at the Food and Wine Festival? And they're serving beef rare? I don't think so. I call BS. Those photos must be from some blogger special event. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WannaBeImagineer 98 Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 Hey Josh has posted a couple of reviews of the F&W on his website and I found an interesting line: The plates here are kind of cool – entirely disposable but look like they just as easily be made of china. http://www.easywdw.com/uncategorized/2015-epcot-food-and-wine-festival-chew-marketplaces-review-and-more-new-food/#more-16412 I guess those plates from the other bloggers website were disposable.

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 I can't recall seeing this posted before... Chip and Co. added 4 new photos.10 hrs · If you have a Chase Disney Visa be sure to visit the Lounge to get priority seating for Eat to the beat and if your lucky enough free drinks during Happy Hour. From the comments... Have your Chase Disney Visa with you. Once you arrive at the American Pavillion, there's an area that has an elevator. In order to get admittance to the elevator, you need to show it. They have beverages and small snacks. Seating is very limited. Find the one giving the concert bands. They go quickly. These bands give you access to the roped off section at the band shell area. Then enjoy the concert later. https://www.facebook.com/chipandco/posts/10153713286898417 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Travisma 1,317 Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 It was crazy busy today. Lines were long at every vendor, at least a 20 minute wait. The line for the Italian shop stretched past the main Italian area down to the bridge that goes to a little sitting area. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
