A Tour of Inside The Mitsukoshi Store Part One

Mitsukoshi is a store located in the Japan pavilion. This store is HUGE and today I will be showing you around the store! I have so many pictures from this store that I will be doing a part two.

These 3D Jigsaw Puzzles look like a lot of fun!

If you are looking for cute stationary, then I think I have found the perfect stationary for you.

If you would like a beautiful bookmark, then you have many options at Mitsukoshi.

It can get VERY hot at Disney World during the summer, so I love that Mitsukoshi sells fans.

Mitsukoshi has a lot of really cool stickers that you can buy.

This store also has many anime books for all of you anime fans!

I love this big statue of Pikachu!

I love all the stuffed animals in this store.

Look At These Disney Themed Board Games!

When you are in Disney World, there are always interesting merchandise you can buy in different stores!

After you finish riding Dinosaur in Animal Kingdom, there is a gift store that you walk into. The gift store had many Disney themed board games!

First, we have the Game of Life, except it’s Disney!

You can also play a Disney Parks Monopoly.

Are you a fan of the Jungle Cruise ride in Magic Kingdom? If so, you will want this board game!

This Candyland is Disney Theme Park Edition.

I love the board game Clue, so I found this version of Clue very interesting.

We also have a theme park version of Perfection!

At Mouse Gear, I found a Disney Themed Uno!

These Dominoes have hidden Mickey’s.

Those are all the Disney themed board games I found while in Disney World. If you are going to Disney World soon, be sure to check out the stores because you will always find something interesting!

Gelateria Toscana Review

There is a new stand in the Italy pavilion that sells gelato!

Here is a picture of the menu:

I had the Cookies and Cream Gelato. It was absolutely delicious! I loved how there was a lot of little bits of cookies in the gelato.

You can also have one cup that has two scoops of two different gelatos. My dad had the Lemon and Pistachio Gelato. He loved it.

Al had the Strawberry and Cookies and Cream Gelato. He also enjoyed his gelato.

I would give Gelateria Toscana 4 Mickey Bars! The only issue is that the gelato was a little pricey, but besides that we would totally go back!

A Beginner’s Guide To Remy’s Ratatouille Hide and Squeak

Remy’s Ratatouille Hide and Squeak is a fun activity you can do during the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival!

Remy’s Ratatouille Hide and Squeak is a scavenger hunt where you can win a prize at the end.

Remy is hiding in different places through out the World Showcase. Your job is to find statues of Remy with food items and then mark it on your map.

Once you have found all the locations, you will return the map to Disney Traders, World Traveler, or Gateway Gifts.

Have fun finding all the hidden Remy’s!

2021 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival Booth Reviews: Hawai’i Booth

The Hawai’i booth is another booth we went to during the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival!

Here is a picture of the menu:

We had the Passion Fruit Cheesecake. Note: The Passion Fruit Cheesecake is a part of Emilie’s Fromage Montage.

I love cheesecake so I found this dessert delicious! I really liked the toasted Macadamia Nuts on top because it added more flavor to the cheesecake.

I give the Hawai’i booth 5 Mickey Bars!

2021 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival Booth Reviews: Flavors of Fire Booth

Next up is the Flavors of Fire booth!

Here is a picture of the menu:

We had The Corned Beef Corner Route. It was delicious! Note: The Corned Beef Corner Route is a part of Emilie’s Fromage Montage.

The Chimichurri-up Offense was good too, but we liked The Corned Beef Corner Route even more.

I give The Flavors from Fire booth 5 Mickey Bars!

2021 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival Booth Reviews: Brew-Wing At The Epcot Experience Booth

The Brew-Wing booth is located indoors!

The Brew-Wing booth has a lot of seating.

Al and I had the Pepperoni Flatbread. It was good, it tasted like a pepperoni pizza.

My parents had the Garlic-Parmesan Wings that come with celery. They thought the wings were delicious!

I give Brew-Wing At The Epcot Experience 5 Mickey Bars!

2021 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival Booth Reviews: The Donut Box

It’s time to review The Donut Box!

Here is a picture of the menu:

First, we tried the Candy Jar Donut. That is a donut with M&M’s, SNICKERS, and TWIX. I did not like this donut because the donut had too much sugar. I think I would have liked the Candy Jar Donut better if it only had M&Ms or only had SNICKERS or only had TWIX.

Then, we had the Chef’s Donut of the Day. (Note: I got the Lemon Blueberry Donut in July 2021, so when you get the Chef’s Donut of the Day it will not be the same as mine.) It was delicious! You can really taste the lemon in this donut.

I give The Donut Box 4 Mickey Bars!
