**2011** Epcot Food & Wine Festival HAS ENDED. 2012 Festival 9/28 - 11/11

[mom2princesses2]

Several poster have said they don't know of any but I have takne the official brochure and made a listing of the items available at each Kiosk. Both with, and without, the adult beverages. There's even a symbol to check off those you want to try! I have 2 formats, one regular font and one slightly larger for over 40 eyes. I don't have an I-phone, but I can email them to any one who wants them. I did them on Word, in 3 columns (can be folded into thirds). They are either one sheet, or two sided, depending on info and font. I also did one mroe for me with descriptions of the foods I didn't recognize.

Send me a PM with your request and email. If you don't tell me which one you prefer, I will email you the listing with food and beverages, regular font.

That's awesome!! I'll PM you. THANK YOU!!

Waldorf just posted their Food and Wine events on their Facebook page. I cannot figure out how to link with my iPad, but there looks like some fun stuff.

Thanks for posting this. It sounds like a great complement to F&W, especially the late night stuff.

I just sent out a bunch of lists so if you sent me a PM you should have received your list(s). I'm so glad I can share my lists with others. My trip is soon (18 days) and I'm running out of things to do for it!

Here is the actual resort blog Bonnet Creek Blog. It's a lovely resort with some wonderful restaurants and lounges.

Silly question: is $50/day for 2 days at F&W too little?

If you want food and wine/beer, I would say it could be. It really depends on how much you want to eat/drink.

I'm not a big drinker. I want to try the Grand Marnier slush and the pineapple margarita from Mexico, and that's about it. Not big on beer or wine. Mainly food.

Well, those two will set you back about $20 as I recall....and well worth every penny IMHO

I would say $50 is probably a little light; but it depends on what you eat. There are some portions for $5 that are very filling for their size) and others that it would be like eating a single cracker and cheese.

I spoke to my CM DD, who works in Epcot, easrlier today. She was oohing, and awing over all things F&W. Neither of us realized just how grand all this F&W Fest is! I thought I would tease y'all with that.... She gets a sneak peek, and she says it is AMAZING!

I'll have $50 for my first day (which will only be from 5:45 till Illuminations), and then about $75-80 for my second. So I could do $50 for food and the rest on alcohol my second day? That day will be from F&W open till about 3, then over to DHS for Fantasmic.

Are you going to have breakfast & lunch before F&W?
And is that $75just for you? Or are you sharing w/someone (and then is it $75for both? or $75each for a total of $150)?

I'm not sure you could put together a filling lunch w/adult beverages for $75?
But if you have already had lunch/big breakfast & really are looking to just sample a couple things it might be fine.

Last year we used primarily a combination of disney gift cards and a disney dollars redemption reward card (or whatever the rewards "gift card" is called from Visa when you redeem points) for our booth and other food purchases. I did not pay close attention to the balances. Does anyone know the answers to the following:

1) Some gift cards auto-deduct 15-20% when used at a restaurant or bar (in essence, I think, double tipping). Do either the disney gift cards or rewards gift card do that?

2) If so, does that happen at the booths as well?

Thanks in advance!

Neither the Disney Visa Reward Card nor the Disney Gift Cards 'double dip' at any location.

Awesome! Thanks! By the way, I love your use of the term "double dipping."

I think 3-4 "snacks" makes a very satisfying lunch. Add a few glasses of wine and it is a perfect lunch for around $25-30 pp.

As soon as Sept 30th gets here, you can get all the prices and budget against those based on what you want to order. $5 per item is a good estimate...last year most were in that range...lots in the $4-5 range, several higher. Can't wait!!! Yum!

I've sent out all requests for my F&WF lists. If you made a request and haven't gotten it (them) let me know.

If you would like one, send me your email by PM. Basically, I took the official brochure and copied and pasted the menu of each Kiosk. I did one in regular font with, and without, beverages and the same in a larger font. The regular font will fit on one sheet of paper, both sides, and is in a 3 column format (easy to fold) The larger font will need 2 sheets and is in a 2 column format.

Happy snacking!

BTW-reading what some of you are planning on spending makes me very happy we will have lots of SC to use.

Its just me. I'm budegting about $50 per day for food, with $100 set aside for my 2 F&W days. What I could do, and I think this will work, is spend part of my budget on Sunday at F&W and then use the entire $100 on Monday. Of course I just realized I'm budgeting for the day I arrive, and I get in late, so I'll only be using like $10 at the POP food court, so there's some extra there too!
