By this point in the Food & Wine Festival, we went back through our passports and narrowed down our “want to eat” lists… There were two things that stayed on our list at the Puerto Rico Marketplace: Conch Salad and Tostones (originally this was “Frituras: crispy fried potato balls and fried green plantains with mayo continue reading Puerto Rico – Epcot International Food & Wine Festival 2014 … We had hoped to try the shrimp roll at Morocco and as of today, we’ve had the shrimp roll once and the beef Kefta pocket twice (it was good the first time and worth repeating). Kefta Pocket – Ground Seasoned Beef in a Pita Pocket So, after disappointing items from the Morocco booth continue reading Morocco – Epcot International Food & Wine Festival 2014 … We loved the Kimchi Dog last year and so had to get it again this year. We got one for Walter too! Kimchi Dog with Spicy Mustard Sauce Simply delicious. This is just damned good. It isn’t overly spicy but if you’re afraid of spicy, that’s fine, I’ll have yours! These are made continue reading South Korea – Epcot International Food & Wine Festival 2014 … Nevie was with us the first full week of Food & Wine and since she was on a quest to eat as much lamb as we could find… the lamb “lollypop” from Australia made the list repeatedly. Grilled Lamb Chop with Mint Pesto and Potato Crunchies We thought that this particular lamb chop continue reading Australia – Epcot International Food & Wine Festival 2014 … Last year, we really liked the venison sausage at the New Zealand booth. The booth has been relocated (I believe it was next to Morocco in the past), it’s now nearer Mexico. Venison Sausage with Pickled Mushrooms, Baby Arugula and Black Currant Reduction Nevie thought this was “yum!” Nick thought it was even continue reading New Zealand – Epcot International Food & Wine Festival 2014 … The full description of this is Confit de Canard, Pommes de Terre Sarladaise (Pulled Duck Confit with Garlic and Parsley Potatoes)… The evening we tried this, we also had the Gnocchi Parisien and the Kronenbourg Blanc 1664. The duck was very rich and the flavor was okay, but not as “ducky” as we prefer continue reading Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival 2014 – Fleur de Lys Confit de Canard … The full description is… Gnocchi Parisien a la Provencal (Parisian Style Dumplings with Vegetables and Mushrooms) The dumplings weren’t like Italian gnocchi at all in terms of shape or texture. It was more like someone had made a long “snake” of dough, cut it off into equal sections, and called it dumplings. The vegetables continue reading Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival 2014 – Fleur de Lys Gnocchi Parisien … I think of this as Buttercup’s Salad, the actual description is a lot longer… Field Greens with Plant City Strawberries, Toasted Almonds and Farmstead Stilton (sounds good, doesn’t it?)
This item was made when Nick ordered it on a Monday evening (in other words, it wasn’t sitting around waiting for someone to come continue reading Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival 2014 – Buttercup Cottage Field Greens Salad … We made our way back to the Buttercup Cottage to sample the “Freshly Baked Potato and Cheddar Cheese Biscuit with Smoked Salmon Tartare” We had this item last year -we couldn’t detect the cheese this year either. The salmon was VERY lemony, maybe that’s where the strong lemon scent we’ve been smelling is coming continue reading Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival 2014 – Buttercup Cottage Potato & Cheese Biscuit and Smoked Salmon Tartare … We recently stopped at The Smokehouse for a morning snack… Sheriff Woody keeping an eye on everyone the smoker yes, they use real wood Since we were both pretty hungry, we got two orders of the Smoked Turkey “Rib” and a Maduro (Cigar City Brewing). it continue reading Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival 2014 – The Smokehouse Turkey Rib … |
