The food and wine pairing at Spice Roads in Morocco is always great. This one may be the best ever. It is a complete 4 course meal.

After check in, we were greeted with a flute of sparkling wine. The first course was shrimp in a thin sauce with corn paired with a delicious white wine. I am sorry I did not keep the menu so I cannot tell you exactly what the wines were. I restrained myself from licking the dish.

The second course was incredible, a spicy tuna with veggies. The tuna was perfect, seared on the outside, raw in the middle, and just melted in your mouth. It was just a bit spicy and paired perfectly with a lovely rose wine.

The third course was roast lamb paired with a red wine. The wines were generous pours. I remember loving the pairing, but I think all the wine interfered with my memory of it!

Finally, dessert was chocolate baklava accompanied by a dessert wine. A perfect ending to a wonderful meal.

In my opinion, this is the best deal at Disney! It will save you money on dinner......you won't want any! Don't miss it!

Pros:

Fantastic food, wine, pairings

Cons:

none

We enjoyed Morimoto Asia's Adventures in Signature Dining on September 19. It was held upstairs in the side room. Each of four courses was a "battle" with two food preps and two drinks. The courses were mackeral, snapper, spice, and ramen. The spice was between wagyu beef and pork belly. The food was served with either a beer or a sake. There was a very wide variety of everything, and tons of food to eat! There were some very unusual sakes! They went all out to please us!

Pros:

Great concept, excellent food

Cons:

Hard to hear the chef/sommelier talk above main dining room noise

On November 4 my niece and I attended the Parisian Afternoon lunch at Monsieur Paul's in the French pavilion at Epcot. Two very enjoyable hours! The mimosas flowed freely, the cold soup course was good, the sandwiches and mushroom cupcake were so tasty and the dessert plate was almost too pretty to eat. We were celebrating my niece's birthday and her dessert plate had Happy Birthday written on it in chocolate sauce! The commentary between courses was interesting. My niece was asked to read from the menu in her best French accent! She nailed it! The chef addressed us when dessert was served and he got a rousing ovation. He explained how the meal was put together to give us as many different tastes as possible representing France in one meal. A wonderful experience! A couple sitting next to us had attended three other Festival meals and they liked this one the best. There were seven different goodies on the dessert plate-ooh la la!!!

Pros:

good foods,lovely atmosphere,charming waiters,fun!

Cons:

none

We attended a wine tasting on Oct. 21 of three wines from Chile. All the wines were quite good and our host was informative and humorous. I remember years ago attending free tastings and though they are now $17, I feel the program was worth it.

Pros:

Good wines, nice people at our table

Cons:

None

This was our 4th time going to Party for the Senses in September 2018, it was the worse one, not as many food and beverage stations. It seems as if they are cutting back while increasing the price. Will not go next year.

Pros:

Fun evening.

Cons:

Party for the Senses 2018 was sub par compared to previous years. Very disappointing.
