***Epcot Food And Wine Festival Info 2008***

Well then someone needs to fix the DIS!

That would be me. I edited last year's info for the Vertical Wine Tastings and overlooked the location.

I'm still seeing $425 for the Bocuse so we'll have to wait and see if that changes.

so Brenda, if it is 425 you will book it but if it is 450, you won't? Is that 25 bucks your point where it goes from being a good deal to unacceptable?

In all seriousness though, I don't think we're going to book anything this year I think the only thing I can possibly convince DH to do b/c of time/money constraints is the Italy F&W pairing, and he's not that thrilled b/c we can get good Italian food any time we want around here. I have to look and see if there are any reviews from years past to show him.

I attended the Italy F&W pairing last year and really enjoyed it. They had it in a separate room from the main dining room. Right now I can't recall what all we had but I remember liking everything. I do remember that there were actually 4 food items (where usually there are only 3). There were only 3 wines though. One wine was meant to be drunk with 2 of the food items.

If I can find my menu from last year I will post it.

if you could, could you tell me what the French Regional Lunch for 10/26 is (this was listed as TBD)

also, does the booklet give more info about the booths? I'm guessing not, but just curious.

Thanks!

ooh! I will be running to the mailbox right after work.

So there's no additional events besides what Allears/Wdwinfo.com has?

It must be a Florida thing, because I received mine yesterday also!!!

You guys in Florida seem to have lots of luck with Disney's bulk mailings. I'm jealous! I'm sure I'll get mine like two weeks from now.

Yeah, sorry to ask a stupid question! Didn't see them on Allears and raced over to wdwinfo and there it was.

Well, I'm only in Georgia - not THAT far away from Florida, but I'll bet mine doesn't arrive for 2 weeks either!!

I'm really counting on seeing the info on Disney's website tomorrow. (I hope, I hope!)

thanks...well, this makes things harder for me. I would have totally written it off had it been a different region but now I have to take pause and figure out what to do!

 

[figment82]

Are the French Regional tastings new this year, or has someone done one in the past that they could share a review?

In general I think the events are too expensive to be worth my while, but my husband loves French cuisine and 10/26 is our fifth anniversary, so....

(we'd do PFTS, but we're running the ToT13K that night, and I'll be lucky to survive it sober!)

 

[Empress Room]

Hmm. I seem to be missing the post, but I thought I had read that there is more than one telephone number to make reservations for the specialty events. Does anyone know what number(s) to call?
