I attended the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival last year, & it totally blew away my expectations. The food was amazing, not too horribly priced, & for that matter, you get a little more than just a taste. Honestly, amazing is an understatement when it comes to the food. These various tastes from around the world even made me purchase a cookbook, containing everything we'd tried. Something I'm sure I will repeat this year when we return yet again. Our next visit will be in October. Which just so happens to fall in between August 31st & November 13th, the official dates for the fest this year. Chip & Co. put out the official menu for this year today, & it's definitely got me hungry. A lot of this menu is the same from last year, but the changes that are there look phenomenal. So without further ado, we invite you to relax, let us pull up a chair, as the dining room proudly presents your dinner.
