The start of the 2014 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival is now less than three months away, and more news is coming out for it all the time. The Food and Wine Fest officially begins on Sept. 19, 2014, at Epcot and runs through Nov. 10, 2014. That’s all great, but now it is time to know what new stuff is coming your way.
At Food and Wine this year, there will be numerous food offerings, drink offerings, the Eat to the Beat Concert series, and so much more (See – Details on new happenings at the 2014 Food and Wine Festival).
There is a lot more new stuff happening though and you need to be fully aware.
Getting this type of info three months in advance will help you prepare better for when the Epcot Food and Wine Festival actually begins in September. Some more info from Disney Dining:
~ Patagonia – A new marketplace booth this year and it will feature food and drink items from Chile and Argentina. Look for Roasted Verlasso Salmon with Quinoa Salad and Arugula Chimichurri that will be paired with Cono Sur Bicicleta Viognier.
~ Africa – South African bobotie with turkey and mushrooms
~ Bean to Bar – Will return with chocolate items, including Drinking Chocolate
~ Brazil – Moqueca de Pescado-fresh tilapia with coconut lime sauce and steamed rice
~ Farm Fresh – Griddled “yard bird” with braised greens and house-made habanero sauce; “Bacon and Eggs” – applewood-smoked, pepper-coated bacon with sweet corn, potatoes, hollandaise sauce and pickeled jalapenos; beverages will include Chateau St. Michelle & Dr. Loosen Eroica® Riesling
~ Hawai’i- a new beverage Aulani Sunset featuring Sammy’s Beach Bar Rum
~ Hops and Barley-Fresh baked carrot cake with Craisins® and cream cheese icing
~ Puerto Rico – Papa Rellena – crispy fried potato balls stuffed with pork and beef; Carne Guisada con Arroz Blanco – slow braised beef with Puerto Rican grown rice; one beverage will be Medalla Light.
~ Scotland – Sea Scallop with spinach cheddar gratin and crispy bacon
~ Terra – An all Vegan marketplace will have Blackened Chick’n Breast with Spicy Gumbo Sauce; Paperboy Red
~ Refreshment Port is not an International food marketplace, but it is included on the Festival Passport. We expect the wildly popular Cronut (part Croissant, part Doughnut) will be included. Block & Hans is also open year round, like the Refreshment Port, yet is included in the Festival listings. Here you can explore some craft beers and additions from The Great Wine Company-Chardonnay and Domaine Chandon Brut Sparkling Blanc de Noir.
