2013 Epcot Food & Wine Festival – Soft Opening – our take

We were able to make it over to Epcot on Thursday night… It used to be a loosely held secret that the Marketplace Booths were open for “dress rehearsal” the day before the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival begins, now it’s widely expected that if you go over, you’ll be able to sample nearly
