I'm Sorry, WHAT?! We Did NOT Expect To Get an AWARD for Dining at This Disney World Restaurant

OK, OK, we’ll admit it. We have a LOT of favorite restaurants in Disney Springs — it’s hard to choose just one! And yes, we love Gideon’s Bakehouse and Homecomin’, but don’t forget about Morimoto Asia, which is ranked very high on our list!

In fact, this restaurant is such a favorite that it’s about to celebrate ten years of service in Disney Springs! To celebrate, Morimoto Asia is starting a program we’ve never seen before (but are SO excited about) — you can collect stamps throughout the next year as you try cuisine from different pan-Asian countries each month! If you collect all 24 stamps, you’ll be awarded an all-expenses-paid trip! Yes, really!

To celebrate its tenth anniversary, Morimoto Asia is introducing the Passport to Morimoto Asia program. Beginning October 1st and continuing through the next year, the restaurant will highlight cuisine from different pan-Asian countries. There will be a special cocktail and dish to experience each month. For each item you try, you’ll receive a stamp in a special passport available at the restaurant.

If you collect all 24 stamps in your passport (meaning you get the cocktail and dish each month), you’ll be given a weekend getaway to Boston, which will feature an event at TD Garden, dinner for two, and a complimentary hotel stay. If you collect 12 stamps, you’ll get an invitation to an exclusive reception at Morimoto Asia, hosted by Chef Morimoto himself.

We love this restaurant!
