hey everyone thanks for coming by Once Upon a Potts today we are talking all
about this year's upcoming Epcot Food and Wine Festival
so thank you so much for stopping by once upon a Potts again or if this is
your first time checking out a video welcome! today I am super excited we have
so much to cover first off it is August 1st so it is a birthday month
and that means that there's gonna be a lot of videos a lot of Giveaways going
on around Instagram and here on YouTube also there is the start of Epcot's Food
and Wine Festival I'm so excited so if those of you who know me from my
previous life as a food blogger you know that food and wine festivals are pretty
much my go-to and my specialty I'm super excited because I do get to go to this
year's Food and Wine Festival we just happen to have our September trip
planned and we'll be in Epcot on the Friday of our trip so hopefully won't be
too crazy if you've never been to Epcot food and wine festival it is pretty much
the creme creme de la creme Wow hey um like have no food knowledge whatsoever
the creme de la creme of all festivals that Disney holds what I love is that
they bring in foods from different countries that don't have pavilions
regularly represented in the park so today I am gonna talk about the bucket
list that I've created for myself for this year's Food and Wine Festival so
I'm gonna go ahead and start off with one that doesn't even have a country
affiliation really and when you go to Epcot food and wine you'll notice that
there are it's pretty much everywhere it's taken over the entire Park and in
future future world as you're walking towards World Showcase there are tons of
new food stalls set up that have lots of different sponsors and partnerships
you'll see like a dual partnership all MIT blued almond breeze Blue Diamond
Blue Diamond almonds I think it's and this one I'm really excited about is
boars and cheese it's gonna be called the cheese studio by Boris on okay so I
have to read these straight off my phone because I don't want to mess these up
because they sound delicious so the cheese trio comes with a profiterole
topped with borz on garlic and fine herb cheese and orange apricot jam then
there's a smoked salmon pinwheel with borz on shallot and chive cheese and
whipped cream cheese and everything seasoning and then a strawberry macaroon
with borz on pepper cheese sounds so good I'm so excited I love when you can
might try a few things at once and get a little sampling super excited about that
then there is a maple bourbon bores and cheese cake with maple bourbon cream
caramel and pecan crunchy and I'm very confused by this because it says it's
vegan hmm I don't know about that how can boars and cheese be vegan if you
know something I don't know please comment below because I have I'm very
curious as to how that can happen anyway let's move on so the next pavilion that
I'm really excited about and just a disclaimer I usually try to pick things
to put on my bucket list that don't typically have their own Pavillion all
the time but this one just sounded really good and the picture online
looked really good so we're gonna head over to China and there they have a
roasted duck bow bun now bow buns are kind of like my kryptonite just that
soft fluffy super smooth bun that oh it's so good and they fill it usually
would like some sort of obviously like a hoisin that makes it sweet but and
there's some sort of pickled vegetable in there too so delicious also on their
menu is going to be a mango bubble tea and I'm really excited to try this and
actually I guess I'm a little bit more skeptical to try this because if you've
noticed around Disney property they have the bursting bubbles and a lot of the
different drinks but nothing is actual boba bubbles boba tea if you're familiar
with boba cheese so kind of lunch I got this manga but mango bubble tea and see
what it's all about they do also have a honeydew cocktail that they're adding to
their menu that sounds absolutely insane and while we're talking cocktails can I
do a quick little plug so what would food and wine be without some sort of
fun theme shirt to go along with it right well obviously I did not forget
about that so I've created my new booze an around-the-world shirt and it has all
the countries listed with the little Mickey heads and the corresponding drink
for each pavilion now what I love about this is that you don't
have to use it just for food and wine it has all the standard countries and their
drinks on it but since there are a lot of families going and if you're like me
and you love to match with your little one obviously we're not gonna put some
boozing around the world drinking around the world shirt on the
kiddos right so well you're both in there's a good chance you want your kids
to be snoozing around the world so I had to get a little fun or a little creative
obviously please be responsible when you're drinking around the world don't
be dumb don't go into Disney Jail there there really are the Disney Jail
don't find out for yourself but there is a Disney jail I haven't found out for
myself don't like no I don't have a record in Disney my boozing around the
world and snooze it around the world shirts are available in my Etsy shop now
so order them soon so you can have them for your trip to food and wine or any
Epcot trip in the future okay now back to our regularly scheduled bucket list
alright so the next food on my bucket list for food and wine is in is going to
be in the Greece representation it's not even a pavilion it's like a hut but
anyway I think grace would be a really cool pavilion hmm what country pavilions
do you want to see added to Epcot World Showcase comment below and let me know
anyway back over to the greece food stall they have something called greek
loaded nachos so what it is it is thinly sliced pita chips all stacked up with
feta cheese olives peperoncinis tomatoes all this other delicious goodness I
think hummus is on there too oh my goodness I'm so excited to try it it's
great you can grab them and I think it's gonna be an easy walk around snack or I
can like she went on a little pro tip if you have kids
um the awning that goes over the stroller it's a great tray for your food
so you can put the awning over the stroller but your food on top and stroll
and dip and you're good to go actually did it with corndogs and go over to
Instagram you can see it over there so another food
at the festival that I'm excited to try is going to be in the Hawaii stall and
they have a grilled tuna tataki and I'm really excited because one of the
podcasts that I absolutely love and adore and pretty much the only podcast
that I do listen to is wdw radio show hosted by lumen jell-o he's like goals
for me okay but he did a review at the Nomad lounge and animal kingdom and
talked about this incredible tuna tataki and I'm really hoping that some chefs
talk to each other and maybe swap some recipes and some secrets so I get to try
it there because nomadland I'm not gonna get Kennedy to be quiet enough long
enough for me to like hang out in there so hoping that the Hawaii tuna tataki is
worth it so another pavilion that is a regular
pavilion all the time in Disney is Japan but their list actually had something
that I think both my husband who's an insanely picky eater and my daughter
who's a new leader because she's only one and a half will actually really like
and that is the teriyaki chicken bun and I'm assuming what it is again there were
there wasn't a picture for this one but my guess and we'll see if I'm right is
going to be like a steamed bun which I don't know why this is Japanese
collisional steamed buns or Chinese but anyway I'm thinking it's like a steamed
bun fully enclosed has some ground up or chopped up teriyaki chicken inside I'm
really excited to try it because I think my daughter and my husband will love it
alright I have a few more on my list next will be the Spain pavilion and this
sounds like a dream come true they are serving something called charcuterie in
a cone brilliant okay so what it is is a paper cone filled with Spanish meats and
cheeses and olives and pickled vegetables all in a cone so you can walk
around and you can eat it and you don't need to be like holding a cheese board
while you walk around I'm so excited about this this is gonna be delicious
super pumped next up Thailand in Thailand they have a
shrimp and scallop cake which hold the phone it's call up every
anyone who is saying scallop you are pretty much dragging your nails on a
chalkboard to anyone who's from the East Coast specifically Massachusetts
specifically the areas around New Bedford where scallops are from and
where they are harvested pretty much all the time if you've had a delicious scalp
it's from New Bedford and we can say it right so don't say scallop it's not a
basket Bal you're not a tile person right you're a tall person or you are
playing basketball or you're playing football stall up okay and then okay so
one tip that I do want to make sure that I convey and get across and I'm pretty
sure that this is still in effect go ahead trolls tell me I'm wrong in the
comments below I don't really care but last I checked if you are on the Disney
Dining Plan all of the snacks or excuse
me I just bloom I just blew the surprise
tonight anyway if you're on the Disney Dining Plan the food at the stalls count
as snacks most of them I believe most of them count as snacks so when you are at
the end of your trip and you realize oh my god I have only snacks and I don't
really want to bring rice krispie treats or all these cookies home remember that
ahead of time and use your snacks in Epcot for these different treats around
the park again I could totally be wrong I'm gonna find
out in September or you can tell me that I'm wrong now I don't care whatever
