Added to the Online Dining Reservations

This is going to be a great help to those who are wanting to book meals that can become great memories. They Disney team has added the opportunity to book the Candlelight Dinner Package, Fantasmic! Dinner Package, Tomorrowland Terrace Fireworks Dessert Party, Dine With an Imagineer and Chef’s Tasting Wine Dinner at the Flying Fish CafĂ©. I have not booked any of these through the online dining reservations, but have enjoyed the dining packages for both the Candlelight Processional and Fantasmic! Dinner package. I will enjoy being able to see what is available when planning for a trip and wanting to add the Fireworks Dessert Pary at Tomorrowland Terrace or Dine With an Imagineer.


I hope that if you do any of these that you have a great meal with wonderful memories!

Women - Jeans, skirts or dress shorts and blouse, sweater or dress is required.


NOT PERMITTED: Tank tops, swim suits or swim cover ups, hats for gentlemen, cut offs or clothing with rips/tears are not allowed. T-shirts with offensive language/graphics will also not be permitted.


There is an exception to this dress code, but only because it goes to a higher standard. This is for Victoria and Albert's including the Chef's Table.

Food and Wine Festival

In just under 2 weeks, Epcot will be welcoming many to 7 weeks of wonderful food and wine from all over the world. I was at Epcot yesterday and they are already have the kiosks set up. There wasn't any topiaries set up yet, which were sparse last year, IMO. Last year was actually the most disappointing year with the way it was done... but that didn't keep me from going or enjoying it. There is a wide variety of things to do.

They have the Eat to the Beat concerts (see list below), Wine Seminars*, Taste Seminars**, Culinary demonstrations**, and then some things like a taste of Italy, a Beer Hop, and many sample size offerings of food and wine from all over. There are countries that you find in World Showcase that are also represented (France, Germany, Canada, etc) and then you have Greece, New Zealand, Ireland, India, Spain and more. New this year is going to be Thailand and Brazil... and also a dessert and champagne kiosk. The cost for the samplings vary from $3 to up to $7-8. It's a good place to try things you wouldn't try and take a step to go beyond your boundries. (I tried escargot and pickled octopus there and liked them both.)

Bon Appetit!!!
