Epcot Food Festival, Day 2
Today was overcast and hot so I couldn’t eat much in the heat. Only made it to two places again but the portions were generous and I wasn’t hungry after the hearty dish at France. We started off to the right past Puerto Rico. Next time, we’ll have to go in the other direction as Patagonia is new and a couple of things there sound good.
Puerto Rico
Braised beef with rice in vegetable sauce was very tasty and worth the wait in line.
France
Wheat pasta gratin with mushrooms and Gruyere cheese very creamy and delicious. Also rather filling.
Belgium
Our kids always like the Belgium waffle with strawberries and whipped cream.
Eddie V’s
Another night on the Magical Dining menu found us ordering Lobster and Shrimp Bisque at Eddie V’s on Restaurant Row. It had chunks of lobster, fishy/salty taste, but I am more used to New England clam chowder.
Excellent Scottish salmon with a few vegetable garnishes. We ordered a side dish of truffle mac and cheese, very tasty with crispy topping. Beef filet medallions very tender.
Dessert choices: dark chocolate mousse with whipped cream and fresh berries, Crème Brulé and Bananas Foster cake with butter pecan ice cream. Elegant, modern upbeat interior and excellent service. I would return here.
What are your favorite restaurants at Magical Dining Month? If you live elsewhere, does your community have something similar with fixed price meals?
Coming Next: Disney’s Fort Wilderness
I enjoyed Puerto Rica a lot last Friday. They provided entertainment while I was there. A dancer and a drummer. Very latin. Very good. The dancer did a wonderful job of interacting with the kids. A very nice addition to the festival this year.
And the food is good, too! Did you eat there?
I love going to dinner with you. I am looking for a gourmet restaurant to go to for our anniversary in the Palm Beach area. I want to try something upscale, a place with dishes like these!!
I don’t know the places in that area but they must have some nice ones. Try opentable.com and look at the reviews.
