The Epcot Flower and Garden Festival is always a favorite of mine...which is probably why I've done it twice this year lol.
Flower & Garden Exclusive: Violet Blueberry Vanilla Croissant Doughnut from Taste Track. This was okay, the actual cronut felt almost twice cooked, very greasy in spots, but the cream was really good.
Flower & Garden Exclusive: Fried Cauliflower with Capers, Garlic Parsley and Chili Ranch Sauce from Taste of Marrakesh. This is just a favorite of mine. I've had it 3 times this year! It's super simple but very flavorful. This is a can't miss for me!
Flower & Garden Exclusive: Harissa Chicken Kebab with Dried Fruit Couscous Salad from Taste of Marrakesh. While Taste of Marrakesh has become a can't miss booth for me because of the cauliflower...this one I could do without. It was a cold dish and just wasn't very palate pleasant.
This delicious drink is the Wild Passion Fruit Margarita and can be found at La Cava del Tequila. It is not exclusive to the festival so it's always available! It features tequila, ginger liquer, passion fruit and mango puree, fresh lime juice and mango foam. It's served on the rocks and I opted to not include the tajin chili powder rim.
Flower & Garden Exclusive: Local Wildflower Honey-mascarpone Cheesecake with Orange Blossom Honey Ice Cream garnished with Fennel Pollen Meringue Kisses and Petite Lavender Shoots from The Honey Bee-stro. This was surprisingly very good! Light and delicious and just the right amount of sweet.
Flower & Garden Exclusive: La Vie en Rose Frozen Slushy (Grey Goose Vodka Orange, St. Germain Liqueur, White and Red Cranberry Juice) from Fleur de Lys. This is another festival favorite of mine. I'm not a huge sweet drink fan, but this is just sweet enough!
Flower & Garden Festival Exclusive: Tri-Colored Cheese Tortellini, Sage Butter and Chicken Veloute from Primavera Kitchen with the Frozen Italian Margarita with Limoncello and Tequila. Both were very delicious and made there way onto my festival favorites list!
These two are not festival exclusive and can be found at Les Halles Boulangerie & Patisserie; the top is a Duo Chocolate Dome Cake and the bottom is a Strawberry Tart! Both are very delicious but the dome is really sweet.
Flower & Garden Exclusive: Macaron au Chocolat en Sucette: Large Chocolate Macaron Lollipop. It is what it is. A chocolate macaron on a stick with some nuts. If you're like me and love macarons, it's a must!
Flower & Garden Exclusive: Stow Away Mary: Classic Bloody Mary with Absolut Vodka garnihed with pimento stuffed olive, cherry tomato, celery, jumbo shrimp, and a smokehouse jerky from Refreshment Port. If you like a classic bloody mary, this is great! I could have done without the shrimp on top, but otherwise this was really fun and very good.
And of course, did you really visit Canada if you didn't grab some traditional poutine? I had both the beef brisket and the traditional this year and neither disappointed!
