Not to promote anything, so if this post needs to be removed, please do so. We use an app on our iPhone called “Food&Wine”. (There are a bunch of bad apps), this app shows a map, all the food at each location, pictures if submitted, pricing. Also, you can favorite all items you want so that when you are at the park you can be on a search and destroy mission! 😂. Thanks for the tip. I will look this up and give it a try. |

We just reviewed some of the menus, and we're looking forward to trying lots of things - old favorties and new items.
Some booths have REALLY gone up in price, like Japan, and Australia.. We typically just skip Italy, it's overpriced, never good. I usually skip China, just regular /nothing special pricey food, but not nec bad. France has gone up a lot too, but I"ll probably get several items there. We often are pleasantly surprised by things like last year loved the pickle shake. I loved the corned beef dish, griddle cheese, schinkennudeln, poutine, spam
We're getting excited! Concert lineup sucks. Flower/Garden had such an awesome line up the week we were there (and just overall.) The concerts were what pushed me to make that trip. Wish F/W had better concerts this time.
I also have several items I'm looking forward to trying at HHN. Their stuff is a LOT more expensive though, but usually larger portions, but not easy to sample a lot in one night.

yes! and it's always good! I never eat Spam any other time, but F/W. Usually it's with potatoes and peppers, but this year, looks like it's a rice dish. I'm still going to try it, although I generally do not at all like most rice dishes when eating out. (don't like instant rice.) |

We were originally planning to head to F&W this week, but had to reschedule to mid October.
Couldn't rebook at Riviera with such short notice, but grateful we found a room at SSR.
It's just DH and me, so we do very little advance planning. But, I reserved the tequila tasting in Mexico and I'm super excited about it!

Oh, and just to add a little whining to this thread: I want my Party for the Senses to come back.  Cheers. |

Not as good as the Spam hash they used to have, but still good. The pork slider is delicious, too |

Oh, and just to add a little whining to this thread: I want my Party for the Senses to come back. Cheers. Agreed. And also agreed with previous comments that the extreme heat can definitely impact one’s experience. |

We did that once before COVID and really enjoyed it. |

This Tequila experience is $180 perperson with a $50 per person cancel fee strictly enforced with 24 hour policy and is located at La Hacienda de San Angel .
I thought it was at the La Cava de Tequila but it is actually offered at La Hacienda
. I think that is a small alcove off the San Angel Inn Restaurante not to be confused with the La Cantina de San Angelo…
It is offered year round and is not part of Food & Wine Tastings or any other Festival offerings .
Gratuity is not automatically included .
I don’t recall the Party for the Senses . Does sound like fun at Epcot .
I think special festival offerings will be in the new CommuniCore Hall .
I think somebody posted a long line in there for festive Mac cheese ! But it does have free air conditioning .
