is there a thread for this that I am missing?

Anyone in the park today and try anything?

There are so many things I want to try!

I was just thinking the same thing! We will be arriving on Saturday and I came on tonight expecting lots of coverage and nothing! I'm waiting with you, lol.

 

[22Tink]

Me too! We’ll be there in 3-1/2 weeks and I’d love to read some reviews. We’ve never done F&G before!

Yes, I would love reviews of the food booths...anyone there now?

I've been enjoying browsing this nice photo summary of the booths here:

https://www.wdwmagic.com/events/epc...al-outdoor-kitchen-kiosks-and-menus/32356.htm

I've never been to any of the Epcot festivals, so I'm very curious about this one! Looking at the menus is fun but some of them still don't give a full description of what's in each dish. I'm wondering if there are better descriptions somewhere or even an allergy listing?

I just saw that Josh over at Easywdw has started to do his reviews. I think he currently has two of the kiosks done. Sorry I don't have a clue how to put the link in here.

Well, so far we have had the spicy hot dog with pineapple chutney (too spicy for kid, ok for adults) Honey mascarpone cheesecake (delish) maple popcorn milkshake (2/3 of us like it, too sweet for me) and seared scallop at Northern Bloom (also delish). Going back for more tonight. Oh and the Pineapple Mana Wheat beer at Pineapple Promenade was mild but appropriately pineapply.

I was interested in trying the pineapple wheat beer, thanks for the report! Glad you are enjoying most of the things you have tried.

Looking forward to reviews as well. We'll be there for the first time in about 6 weeks. I've seen short reviews by Dis Unplugged and DFB, but nothing extensive.

Josh has about 7 booth reviews up this morning. We go for F&G every year and I've found his reviews very helpful. He breaks down costs and value for dollar, which I like, and is very descriptive. I don't always agree with his taste of items but I always look forward to his reviews. I can't wait for our trip!

I'm so glad they have the scallops again! They were one of my favorites from last year.

So many of these I’m wanting to try! How will I find room for it all?

Where are these reviews found? I looked at this site and couldn't find them.
Thanks!

He put another review up on Hanami.

Today we had pork tacos (good,) chilequiles (better,) conch salad (good flavor but conch was a bit tough,) and sugar cane shrimp with rice (shrimp was good, rice was a bit dry). Honestly I wouldn’t have gotten the tacos (can get similar at home) but they were close & I knew my DS would try them sans salsa.

Thanks for sharing. Those all sounds delicious, especially the scallops.

Marrakesh and Florida Fresh reviews are up as well.

I may need to stop reading reviews, I am now up to 40 items I want to try. Estimated to cost over $300.

 

[mckennarose]

My daughter is down there right now and has been sending me pictures of the food items that they've tried and her opinion. So far she really liked the dessert from La isla Fresca and loved the tropical alcoholic drink. At honeybee she love the cheesecake. Northern bloom she was not impressed with the scallops and thought they were better last year. I'll still try them when I go.

I’d been planning on making the outdoor kitchens lunch for one of the days that we are there in April - but I’m starting to fear that won’t be enough!!! So many things sound so good!

I'm following along with Josh's reviews on easywdw and so far, if I get everything I want, I'm looking at $210. Darn all of these tasty-sounding drinks...
