15 festivals later and the food just keeps getting better. Something for everyone. Prices are starting to creep into the "Are you kidding me" zone. Someone needs to pay attention to this. Had some amazing food and to get seconds on some!

Food & Wine festival is one of my favorite events to visit for! There are so many different options to choose from. Not only having the extra food choices to try but also having the seminars and concerts are a great experience. My boyfriend & I visited in 2012 for food & wine, we had the deluxe dining plan which was one of the best things we could have had for this event! Since you are able to use snacks for the event we did not end up paying out of pocket & we tried so may foods & drinks. It is a busy time of year but so worth it. We got a passport at the begining of the trip & got a stamp from almost every country. One of the best things the we tried was the chicken roll from japan- I think I got that 3 times that trip- its that good! It is nice to have the oppertunity to sample foods from different countries without having to purchase a whole meal.
Pros:
Lots of optionsCons:

Grand time last week. Went for two and a half days. Friday night was very busy. Monday was better. Lines on Friday night and Sunday were very long, but we persevered. Some wonderful foods. A few, Italy and Poland not so good. Beer flights very popular with our party. Canada and France were our party's favorites.
Pros:
food, beer, wineCons:

I found the foods at the 2014 International Marketplaces to be of overall very good quality. Some of my favorites: the Berliner (donut) at the Germany marketplace; the Grilled Lamb Chop in Australia; the Gratin de crozet de savoie in France, along with the Sea Salt Caramel Creme Brulee. My least favorites were at the Italian booth -- both the ravioli and chicken were overpriced and rather blah. I would definitely recommend trying everything, though. You never know what you're going to like until to try it! See what others have rated the foods in our annual survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/results/SM-MGP8GTJL/

Another amazing and impressive year at the Epcot Food & Wine Fest! Thought I would share my fav's this year...a must try for foodies!
Brazil - The Crispy Pork Belly with black beans, onion, avocado, cilantro - incredible!
Australia- The Lamb chop with the Penfolds 8 Cab/Shiraz - just amazing.
South Korea - Lettuce wrap!!!
Africa - Berbere Style Beef with Wolftrap Red or Porcupine Syrah - I went back for seconds...so good.
Cheese - Almond crusted Blue Cheese souffle and the Cheese selection are incredible - I want to move to the land of cheese!
Try the big bad red....really perfect with the souffle!
Japan - spicy hand roll...way easier to eat on the go...and great!
New Zealand - Venison sausage was so good - would have liked a different red with this but all the wines are good!
France - I love the escargot...per usual.
Canada - The filet never dissapoints! Great with the Syrah.
Hawaii - Pork slider....so good!
Dessert&Champ - GREAT..all great but loved the Morello Cherry Pistacio Mousse!
Scotland - great new addition! Banoffee tart if you want something sweet or the salmon was good as well! Scotch flight is a GREAT DEAL.
Enjoy!!!!

The lobster tail was very tender and tasty. Unfortunately, the size is too small; more like a langostino than a lobster tail. But I'm glad I tried it!
Pros:
Very tasty; melt in your meltCons:
Too small of a portion for the priceReviewed by IlovePooh Review Date: 09/27/2013

So just a quick general review - I was at the Cast preview last night (open to the public, too) and had just a few things.
At the Cheese booth - the Almond-Crusted Blue Cheese Souffle with Fig Jam was fabulous - especially paired with the suggested Once Upon a Vine's The Big Bad Red Blend!
At Florida Local - I also loved the Florida Grass Fed Beef Slider with Monterey Jack and Sweet & Hot Pickles, which I enjoyed with the remainder of the wine from the Cheese booth in the shade and breeze at the America Gardens Theater across the way.
For dessert at Scotland - have to say I'm not going to be a fan of the Scottish Banoffee Tart with Bananas, Scotch Whiskey Toffee, Walkers Shortbread Crumbles and Sweet Cream. The description sounded awesome - in reality it seemed rather bland, and none of those flavors, except banana, was discernable.
