Snacks From Around The World: Italy Edition

I am going to be starting a new series called Snacks From Around The World! In this series, I will review different snacks from different pavilions in Epcot.

Enoteca Castello is located in the Italy pavilion and I found a snack that I wanted to try in this store!

I could choose either the Lemon Cream Filled Gran Torta or the Chocolate Cream Filled Gran Torta. Fun Fact: torta means cake in Italian.

I picked the Lemon Cream Filled Gran Torta.

When you open the box, there is a cake and a package of powdered sugar.

The cake.

We put the powdered sugar on top of the cake. This cake was DELICOUS! I loved how there is a lemon filling inside the cake because it helps make the cake not dry.

The cake with powdered sugar.

Next time you are in Epcot, I would totally recommend getting this!

A Tour Inside Sportsman’s Shoppe

Sportsman’s Shoppe is located in The United Kingdom pavilion. Today I will be showing you around this store!

This was located outside of the store, but I still wanted to show it to you. Isn’t it cool?!

I found some United Kingdom shirts.

These shirts have Wales, Ireland, England, or Scotland written on them.

That is my tour around Sportman’s Shoppe! I hope you enjoyed this tour!

Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure Review

Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is a new ride in the France pavilion !

In this ride, you will go along side Chef Remy and see everything from a rats point of view. You will get to see the kitchen, dining room, and walls of Gusteau’s restaurant.

I really enjoyed how this entire ride feels like an adventure. You feel like you are right there next to Remy.

My only complaint is that I feel like during the ride we are staring at screens too much. Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is a 4D ride, which means that the whole time you are wearing glasses. This can get very annoying and at some parts of the ride I just wanted to take off my glasses because I was tired of wearing them.

I give Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure 4 Mickey Bars!

Coral Reef Restaurant Review

Coral Reef Restaurant is a restaurant located in Epcot and today I will be reviewing it!

The cool thing about this restaurant is how there is an aquarium that you can look at while you eat. Unfortunately, we were seated in the back of the restaurant so we could not see the aquarium well.

First, we were given bread and butter. The bread was actually delicious because it tasted fresh.

I had Shrimp and Grits. That is shrimp, cheese grits, corn succotash, sausage, and Creole spice emulsion. The shrimp tasted really good with the spice and I thought that the cheese grits were really good. I was not a big fan of the corn.

Al had the Grilled Shrimp from the kids menu. This meal comes with two sides. He chose fruit and Sea Breeze Gelatin Cup. He really liked his shrimp.

My dad had Seared Mahi Mahi. He enjoyed his food.

My mom had Orange-glazed Sustainable Salmon. The salmon comes with vegetable stir-fry and rice. She thought her food was good.

I give Coral Reef Restaurant 3 Mickey Bars. The food was good, but like I said before, we were seated really far away from the aquarium. The only reason we came to this restaurant was to see the aquarium. I also think that if you want to eat at a restaurant in Epcot, you should go to one of the pavilions instead.

La Crêperie de Paris Review

There is a new restaurant in the France pavilion and today I will be reviewing it!

La Crêperie de Paris is a restaurant that sells sweet and savory crêpes.

Here is a picture of the menu:

I had the Classique. That is a ham, egg, and cheese crêpe. It was delicious! It was still hot when I ate it and you can taste all the different flavors from the ham, egg, and cheese.

My mom had the Ratatouille. (Yes, the ratatouille like from the movie!) It has tomato, zucchini, and eggplant. She said that she liked her food.

My dad had the Savoyarde. The Savoyarde has cheese, onions, bacon, and ham. He really enjoyed his meal.

Al had the Ham and Cheese Galette from the kids menu. (I used the same picture as my

For dessert, I had the Gourmande. It has hazelnut chocolate and whipped cream. I would highly recommend it!

My mom also had the Gourmande.

Al had the Sugar Crêpe from the kids menu. He found it delicious!

I give La Crêperie de Paris 5 Mickey Bars! If you are a crêpe fan, then you should go to this restaurant.

A Tour Inside The Shopping Area Of The Mexico Pavilion

Today I will be giving you a tour inside the shopping area in the Mexico pavilion!

The Mexico pavilion is really interesting because the entire pavilion is located indoors. When you walk inside the Mexico pavilion, there is a shopping area that sells merchandise that is from Mexico.

I really love how colorful these skulls are!

You can get a big sombrero.

You can also chose between two different Minnie Ears.

If you like collecting pins, than these pins are perfect for you!

You can also get ornaments or keychains.

I like these two signs.

These suns and this fish look like works of art.

I love how much thought and detail were put into these owls.

These sweatshirts and shirts are themed after the movie Coco!

These bags are my favorite in this shopping area.

These frogs are very interesting.

These little cats and chickens are really cute!

This notebook is Coco themed.

I hope you enjoyed this tour inside the shopping area in the Mexico pavilion! I would really recommend going here on your next trip to Epcot!

Club Cool Review

At Club Cool, you can try different sodas from all over the world!

These are the different sodas you can try for free. You can try soda from Italy, Madagascar, The Dominican Republic, Korea, The Philippines, China, Russia, and Moldova.

I tried three different sodas. I had the Bon Bon Anglais from Madagascar, the Minute Maid Joy Apple Lychee from Korea, and the Suan Mei Tang (also called Sour Plum Tea) from China.

My favorite soda was the Minute Maid Joy Apple Lychee. I don’t like soda and this soda did not taste like a soda at all. It tasted like apple juice. I think that is the reason why this was my favorite soda that I tried.

When you are in Epcot, I would REALLY recommend going to Club Cool. It’s a great place to cool off when it is hot outside and you can try many different soda flavors.

2022 Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival Booth Review: Primavera Kitchen Booth

I just came back from a trip to Disney World and I was lucky enough to be in the parks during the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival!

During the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival, there are booths through out the World Showcase where you can try food from other countries! I went to Primavera Kitchen in the Italy pavilion and I am excited to be reviewing the food for you.

We had the Arancini. That is fried risotto balls that are filled with beef and are served with tomatoes. This dish was delicious! I really loved how fresh the tomatoes tasted.

I give Primavera Kitchen 5 Mickey Bars!

Pizza al Taglio Review

Pizza al Taglio is located in the Italy pavilion.

Pizza al Taglio is really cool because you can order pizzas that are served at Via Napoli. Instead of getting a big pizza, you get a slice of pizza. Also, Pizza al Taglio is not a sit down restaurant. You order the pizzas by going to a walk-up window.

We all shared two slices of pizza. The first one we got was a pepperoni pizza. It tasted really good! The crust of both pizzas tasted a little buttery.

The other slice we got was a cheese pizza. I really liked how cheesy the pizza tasted.

I would give Pizza al Taglio 5 Mickey Bars!
