2007 International Food & Wine Festival (Marketplace Booth Details Now Available!)

[chip&dale&fun]

I have one on the 19th but I have not heard anything yet. Did they give you the option of canceling?

Just saw another post on another Disboard food and wine thread that the 19th was also moved.

I have Seas on October 5. It has also been moved to Coral Reef.

I have the signature dinner at Seas Salon on October 21 and I don't think they meant that one.

Ok guys I just got back and I have to say the food was great. The best of the past several years! We did not try everything but started at the Dominican Republic and made it to the United States They are taking dining plan snack credits. Everything was nice and hot when it should be and nice and cold when it should be. Here is what we tried:

Dominican Republic
Plantain Mash with avocado on top $3-excellent!

Greece
Spanakopita $3-good
Greek Salad $2.25-good, lots of olives/feta

Canada
Cheddar Cheese Soup $3.00-as always good
Mission Hill Merlot $3.50-liked it

France
Champagne, Framboise and White Chocolate Sorbet $4.75-I loved this, DH not so much

Oklahoma
Three Sisters Soup $2.75-loved it
Buffalo with Scalloped Wild Onions $4.50-loved it

Australia
Shrimp on The Barbie $4.25-so much better than last year, fresher better tasting shrimp

Japan
Tuna Roll $3.50-good
Plum Wine-$3.00-good with sushi, a little like cough syrup

US
Lobster Roll $6.75-too expensive for the size, pretty good, bread softer/fresher than last year
Strawberry Shortcake $2.50-looked great, DH said ok


The festival guide is nice quality. I can't scan (hopefully it will be up soon) but I can try to answer any questions! Lots going on!!!

Do they have cooking demos in the Odyssey on weekends? There seems to be too much going on in the Odyssey this year for them to have many.

I'll find out on Saturday but I thought I'd ask.

Yes! They have the Culinary Demos and Authentic Taste Seminars at The Odyssey. The Festival Center has the Wine Seminars.

Hi Maggie. I think these are from last year-see where it says "Exploring Regional Flavors" on the Canada board? This years theme is "Tastefully Inspired". Some of the menus are different this year and the prices are different.

Thanks for the reviews Patricia! We leave tomorrow morning and can't get there fast enough! I look forward to our October Disney trips more than any of the others because of the F&W festival! Wooohoooo...we're almost there!
