10 Best Bites to Grab at the Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival at Walt Disney World

The current EPCOT festival might look a little different at Walt Disney World this year. All the same, we’re loving eating our way around the Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival.

And we’ve tried enough of these Food and Wine Festival food booth menu items that we’ve got a pretty good idea of the best things to eat at the festival this year. And we’re sharing them with you, of course!

These are the 10 best bites at Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival this year!

Piri Piri Skewered Shrimp with Citrus-scented Couscous at Africa

First up we’re heading to Africa for its Piri Piri Skewered Shrimp with Citrus-scented Couscous. We have to say this is definitely an overlooked booth. It’s got some of the best flavors of the festival — especially in this shrimp!

Canadian Cheddar Cheese and Bacon Soup served with a Prop & Peller Pretzel Roll at Canada

Our next favorite is found at the Canada Booth where we’re grabbing an age-old favorite, the Canadian Cheddar Cheese and Bacon Soup served with a Prop & Peller Pretzel Roll. Cheese soup? Don’t mind if we do (multiple times).

Mongolian Beef Bao Bun in China

For a more adventurous eat, order the Mongolian Beef Bao Bun at the China Booth. It’s the right mix of familiar and exciting, and the flavor profile is totally awesome.

Liquid Nitro Chocolate Cake Pops with Crumbled Twix® Original at Desserts & Champagne

You can find some serious showstoppers at the Desserts & Champagne Booth (located inside World Showplace) with the Liquid Nitro Chocolate Cake Pops. Our pick of the different flavors is definitely the one covered in crumbly Twix.

Tarte aux Oignons Caramelises et Chévre: Goat Cheese Tart with Caramelized Onions on a Flaky Pastry Crust at France

Possibly one of the fanciest dishes at the festival is the Tarte aux Oignons Caramelises et Chévre or the Goat Cheese Tart with Caramelized Onions on a Flaky Pastry Crust. You can find this pick at France, of course!

Kalua Pork Slider with Sweet-and-Sour DOLE® Pineapple Chutney and Spicy Mayonnaise at Hawaii

The Hawaii Booth has figured out the perfect mix of sweet, savory, spicy, and sour flavors with the Kalua Pork Slider with Sweet-and-Sour DOLE® Pineapple Chutney and Spicy Mayonnaise.

Gourmet Macaroni and Cheese with Boursin® Garlic and Fine Herbs Cheese topped with Herbed Panko at Mac & Cheese Hosted by Boursin® Cheese

We knew something from Mac & Cheese Hosted by Boursin® Cheese would make this list. As it turns out, our favorite was the Gourmet Macaroni and Cheese with Boursin® Garlic and Fine Herbs Cheese topped with Herbed Panko. (Yes, there’s a hunk of Boursin there in the back corner of the dish!)

Beef Kefta Pocket with Caramelized Onions, Garlic, and Spicy Tomato Concassée at Morocco

Here’s another more adventurous bite. This isn’t the prettiest dish at the festival, but we’re headed to Morocco for flavor. You should definitely add the Beef Kefta Pocket with Caramelized Onions, Garlic, and Spicy Tomato Concassée to your list.

Kielbasa and Potato Pierogi with Caramelized Onions and Sour Cream from Poland at Wine & Dine featuring Festival Favorites

The Wine & Dine featuring Festival Favorites has a few winners for years past, so we’re reminiscing on an old favorite with the Kielbasa and Potato Pierogi with Caramelized Onions and Sour Cream that used to be at the Poland booth.

Street Corn Funnel Cake topped with Roasted Corn, Cotija Cheese, and Cilantro and Cumin Crema dusted with Paprika at Funnel Cakes

Finally, we’re headed to the Funnel Cakes stand in American Adventure to snag its festival offering — the Street Corn Funnel Cake topped with Roasted Corn, Cotija Cheese, and Cilantro and Cumin Crema dusted with Paprika. Seriously, savory funnel cakes are where it’s at.
