Our youngest daughter, Shae, bought us tickets for the Food & Wine Festival for our birthdays :D
Her BFF Heather joined us, and we ate our way around the world!
I took enough pictures to do more than one post on Epcot...I'm thinking maybe even 3.
Lets start with the FOOD!
Dessert Trio: Lemon Chiffon, White Chocolate Macadamia Mousse with Dark Chocolate Pearls, Tres Leches Verrine |
Grilled Lamb Chop with Potato Goat Cheese Salad and Shiraz Reduction from Australia! |
From Canada...
Oh! Canada! |
Same thing happened in Greece!
Hubby and I both had the Chicken Souvlaki with Tzitiki, and Shae had the Grilled Greek Cheese with Pistachios and Honey. Heather had the Souvlaki, too. I was going to borrow Shae's pics from Flickr, but she hasn't uploaded them :(
Kalua Pork Slider with Sweet and Sour Dole Pineapple and Spicy Mayonnaise |
Kalua is the style of cooking and is spelled correctly....it doesn't have Kahlua in it. It was yummy! Shae and Heather had the Seven Tiki Mai Tai's...they also drank their way around the world!
Here's Shae with one of several drinks she had!
and Heather with another libation!
Scandinavian Rice Pudding with Driscoll's Only the Finest Berries. OMG! The Swedish Meatballs with Lingonberries were amazing, too.
Steamed Mussels with Roasted Garlic Cream and baguette, Belgian Waffle with Berry Compote and Whipped Cream, Guylian Belgian Chocolate Seahorse Truffles |
On to Germany...
Nuernberger Sausage in a Pretzel Roll |
Apple Strudel Featuring Werther's Original Karamel and Vanilla Sauce |
Cheese is not a country, but it had it's own booth!
Artisan Cheese Selection with Le Delice de Bourgogne Lincet, Thomasville Tomme Sweet Grass Dairy, and Chevre Affine Wyngaard Kaas |
Cheese Fondue with Sourdough Bread |
Linda Bean's Lobster Claw Cuddler with Drawn Butter |
They were excellent! I love lobster!
We totally gobbled down France!
Escargots Persillade en Brioche (Snails in Garlic and Parsley Brioche) |
This one dish has me longing for a trip to Ireland!
Lobster and Scallop Fisherman's Pie, Warm Chocolate Lava Cake with Baily's Ganache |
I wish I had taken pics of everything the 4 of us ate. I challenge you to do it! Just try! The food is so scrumptious, and pretty, it is difficult not to just dig in!
The Seahorse Truffles were cute! I didn't want to eat them but I did. I gave one to hubby.
Seahorse Truffles |
I have been sleeping all weekend trying to recuperate LOL. and I may never eat again...at least not for the next week! Just kidding ;)
If you are in the area, have never been, and can get tickets, you should go! Especially if you are a FOODIE!
Which foods look good to you?
I'll be back tomorrow with some fun pics from Epcot!
Love,
Del

Eating my way through Epcot would be a dream come true. In fact my hubs and I want to go back without the kids some day so we can spend the entire day munching our way around the world! Loved all the photos!
Wow- all of that looked WONDERFUL! Which one was your absolute favorite??
Oh my gosh - I am so hungry from reading your delicious post! Glad you had such a great time!!! Yummy!
Have a good week -

I only have one big problem with this post...you DIDN'T EAT THE CHOCOLATE LAVA CAKE! That would be the draw to get me there in the first place.
But in all seriousness, it looks like an awesome time! I love good food, I love good wine, and I love going to places of adventure.
I wish I could have gone with you!
You ate all that in one day, haha!!! Wow. So fun though. And we really do experience other cultures with food, don't we! I want the German strudel! Oh, and fondue too. I don't think I had a fondue since I left Switzerland.
