EPCOT Food and Wine Festival 2023: EVERY Food Booth, All of the Entertainment, and MORE!

[@AllEarsNet]

NOTE: The Chocolate Fondue at The Alps booth in this video is not plant-based after a change to the menu. Disney originally announced the dish as plant-based and it was still marked as plant-based in the app after the festival began. Always double check with Cast Members when you have any dietary concerns -- even when Disney notes something.

[@spiritedreviewexc]

plant based chocolate is usually NASTY! sorry but if you can find a good one send it my way. The only one that i found that i kinda like is The Legendary pop tart brand and they are the best!

[@meganmcguinness9206]

A breedlove best of the fest plant based would be perfect!!

[@NoviceNouns]

I know I shouldn't be surprised with AllEars at this point, but this video was incredible especially given such a tight turnaround. Props to the editors for keeping such a high standard too!

[@carriemartellWDW]

Love when the whole team is together with Cassie. ❤

[@staciewing2827]

Seriously? A massage and mimosa in a game room? You find the best ways to live a magical life! Love it! 😁😁😁😁

[@fronkdt]

Cassies's facial expressions....surely there's a reel in there to be made 🤣

[@laneyoftheshire]

*Zooms in on squirrel* “REMY??” 😆

[@phantomx3.0]

yummy treats! loved the vegan and vegetarian options. looking forward to the other booths to open as the festival progresses.

[@alyssabrown5938]

would LOVE to hear comments about gluten free and plant based alternatives/options in this kind of video! missed breedlove but would also love some gluten free commentary!

[@rhi1920]

The pickle millkshake is making me gag too 😂😂 think we’ll leave that one out… Can’t wait to go tomorrow xx

[@mercedeshall3306]

25:06 Cutting board or cheese board or anything you want it to be 😂😂😂 oh Breedlove! I love you! 😊❤

[@melissabeth5224]

Emma with her accent had my laughing so hard. I wish i could be there right now.

[@Angela-qm3gn]

So fun to see the whole gang together!

[@pattysalegna-killeen821]

Thank you, going in august 2 can’t wait 😊

[@mizuki_1516]

Yasssss I’m here for it

[@sbecker1265]

Hilarious video. I love how Cassie gave in depth DFB style analysis and the Allears crew were like “yeah, it’s good. Try the potato chips”

[@kendralyn3801]

This is great! You guys should have a plant based team that goes and eats all the new plant based items.

[@TheHilliardFam]

So many yummy foods to try! We're excited to go!

[@jostlynjoy8160]

Emma + Belgium = I fell off the couch. 😂😭🤣 Emma + Sage = Yes, please.🙌🏽 Breedlove…🤗💕

[@Thisishoweroll]

Can’t ever get enough Fry Bucket! She is so funny!

[@sweetsouthernanne1865]

Emma! It was so nice to meet you. We chatted in front of Japan. It was about 4pm. Try the Fry's by Test Track!

[@jessicadeery5095]

The whole group love it

[@sLovesDisney]

Did Breedlove not get to eat today? Would've loved to see him get to try a few more of the plant based offerings!

[@PoppaSquat-et3qp]

He was too full on free water to eat

[@filmandcomposition]

@@PoppaSquat-et3qp Haha! Water is about the only safe thing he can ingest. Food & Wine is a place for zero limitations.

[@mercedeshall3306]

He had a plant based guava cake and plant based chicken tenders

[@edwindrood2816]

He tends to be the "getter" and grabs the items for the others to review. Source: standing next to him in line.

[@jonahupton8147]

Oh don’t mind me. Just sitting here taking an hour out of my Saturday to sit and watch some of my favorite vloggers talk about my favorite festival! Thanks y’all! Super fan here! Love you all!

[@pwnmasteh]

An Itallian Beef sandwich? This Chicagoan needs to try that to see if it holds to to what we have here lmao.

[@jaletu8173]

Loved the video, as usual! We are doing the festival this year and I have my work cut out for me. Will watch this review probably three or four times! Forgot to say Thanks!!

[@jasonhebert6262]

Poor Cassie almost had a seizure with that pickle shake!😂😂

[@Jimmybay13]

Great video AllEars and DFB team!! Thank you Quincy, Emma, Fry Bucket, Sage, Breedlove and Cassie! Been waiting for this to drop. We now have our favourite booths to visit on our next trip from Scotland in November 👏😊!

[@carolstorchlightcottage6269]

Loved all the food reviews. Great variety of foods.

[@Justin_Yoshi_Lau]

I find it kind of ironic that Fry-bucket didn’t get “Fry basket” lol😂😂😂😂

[@eaglehaslanded]

The carnitas and black beans will go great with my PicoDeGallo, your team has it. Fry try with habanero.

[@rachelkelly6932]

Omg can Cassie pretty please do all future food reviews?! Her expressions are everything!!! So entertaining 😂

[@magnuseaton6969]

I will be there in early September

[@scottengholm508]

So glad I waited tell suppertime to watch this, the Allears team is looking good and on top of their game. The food and drinks looked really good and the teams personalities definitely make it seem like a can't miss good time. Thanks for the video Allears and a shout out to DFB👍

[@AllEarsNet]

Thank you so much! 🧡

[@mauralopez5395]

Where did you get your trays from?

[@heweyhouse99]

Cassie and Fry were hysterical at Flavors of America. "I got a new fork so I don't get pregnant", Cassie feeding Fry and then locking arms as they had a bite. Comedy gold.

[@kaylahaygood1276]

I heard “so I don’t get Fry cooties” hahaha pregnant would be odd to say

[@suzyb9427]

I would watch the AE Team try all the Disney food with the silent facial reactions they were serving in this video again. Priceless!

[@jamie_gladeforest]

I’m pretty sure I saw Emma on Thursday at Epcot when I was there!

[@Nicole-sl3zt]

Love the video!! Heading down in 11 days and looking to purchase a new video camera. What camera did you guys use in this video?

[@Seoulsearch616]

Was Emma doing a Boston accent?! Love, love, loved it - along the rest of this video! Love seeing all the different personalities in one place. ❤️🎉🎈

[@jabis2928]

That’s a NY accent - from a New England resident

[@Seoulsearch616]

@@jabis2928 Good to know, thanks!

[@mdf3530]

I think she was doing Mike Myers’ character Linda Richman from when he was on SNL.

[@eaglehaslanded]

Great review, Cassie I am disappointed I like seafood and shepherds pie, that will be great for me; cuties. I would love the chocolate.

[@lovestodive1879]

I've been to every F&W Festival except the mini one right after the trying times. I will not be going this year and am so sad. I am only able to take two trips this year, I went in April for my birthday month and am going in December for my son's birthday to join him and his family - including my 2 1/2 year old grand daughter.

[@totalcattitude4339]

I loved seeing the festival (and everyone's outfits were on point in this video) , but I have a few suggestions for future festival videos: 1) My family and I would love to see some more in-depth reviews rather than "It was nice. You should try it," "it was very flavorful and savory," (what flavors made you say that) or "We didn't like it. Probably not worth your money." 2) Please give us time to read the menu boards for each of the booths 3) I would've loved to see Breedlove walk around and try a bunch of the plant-based foods from different booths 4) When you cut to clips of you guys trying different dishes, please let us know what you're eating. My family and I were confused throughout a large chunk of the video.

[@sLovesDisney]

Agreed! I would gladly wait for and watch a longer festival video if it meant we got to see detailed reviews!

[@Soapy-qm7gn]

You know you can read the menus on there blog, right?

[@totalcattitude4339]

@@Soapy-qm7gn Yes, but sometimes I'm feeling lazy and don't want to do that. These videos are meant to be informative, but they can only help so much when I don't have a clue what's offered at any of the booths.

[@nannybeadling1227]

Agree! And "autumnal" is a one and done adjective.

[@MG-qo7ix]

​@@nannybeadling1227... and "savory" is a 10 and done adjective. 😂

[@nekokicker]

Fry bucket didn’t review fry basket… seems like a bit of a missed opportunity. Lol

[@Maureen_Kathy]

Totally agree big missed opportunity

[@LC-le9ew]

I love all of the team members on camera at All Ears but every time I hear Emma talk I feel like I am watching a professional newscaster on real live television! (And I mean that in a good way; I think she would be really talented as a national reporter!)

[@valeriesmith4372]

Hey Quincy!

[@travelertrome8449]

My favorite vlogs are the ones where the whole gang is together! And in my favorite park as well! I must have Breedlove's cap! Where can I find it? And where was Sage at the end?

[@AllEarsNet]

Sage had to leave halfway through the day for a performing gig! 🎶

[@jerrygarza7321]

What did they give fry bucket at the end?

[@firesilver123ify]

Looking at Fry's shoulders she shouldn't be telling Sage to put sunscreen on Sage needs to chase her down, (With help) and put sunscreen on her! One of my best friends is down from Maryland right now and saw (And said hi to ) Emma and Sage on Thursday!

[@CherylMoore-q9c]

What specialty cupcakes is Disney featuring during festival?

[@meghancarr518]

Whoo!

[@mariapadilla4849]

Where do you get the scavenger hunt packet?

[@erinhammer542]

I love videos when the whole team and Cassie are together

[@eaglehaslanded]

Wow, I’m suprised at Spain’s review they probably cooked it too long that’s why seafood is rubbery, the pallea is probably missing the Safran; Fry should try mine. Emma no Lumpia? Breedlove you’re funny show up when is served ha,ha! lol. I ❤love to try the wings. Great review team!

[@eaglehaslanded]

Opps! Saffron

[@eaglehaslanded]

Oops! Again.. Breedlove you’re funny, you show up at lunch time when food is served ha! ha! lol.

[@kat64470]

Is that pickled baby cucumber in the Alps dish?

[@randomuser_one]

Great to see everyone on one video! Why aren't there ANY non-alcoholic beers being served at booths or stands??? You can get one at the restaurants some times, but I would think the alcohol-free segment of the population is pretty large, and would definitey try some of the better NA brews.

[@kevwwong]

I'd guess that NA brews don't sell as well as, say, a smoothie or a mocktail.

[@alysiaserenelli9535]

Does anyone know where Quincy’s hat is from?!

[@HerHollyness]

Did Quincy not get the Swirled Showcase pun? Really? 😂

[@katcalico9142]

Shimmering sips is amazing in that is actually appropriate for the current season - Disney starts fall way too early. Cassie’s use of the word autumnal is on point - I know they have to do festival of the holidays but I really wish they would move food and wine to January - July is just too hot for this - I do not want to eat raclette in August in Florida. I want slushees and watermelon and froze not melted cheese

[@tiffprendergast]

Yeah

[@MG-qo7ix]

Wish we could see Breedlove review the plant-based items at each booth. Overall, this video felt chaotic. Maybe divide the festival review into multiple days - quality of reviews vs. quantity of reviews.

[@NoviceNouns]

I appreciated the chaos, it felt more really like what first festival day is like. That said, I would have absolutely watched more content if this had only been 'First impressions' with several more in-depth reviews. Appreciate AE is a business though and sad fact is those KZbin algorithms favour who gets there first. I liked how most of the 'rushed' sections were either mid food or repeat food. At an hour, it's already a pretty hefty video! Would love to see a 'Perfect Day at an Epcot Festival'! I'm guessing we'll also see more in-depth stuff as the new booths are added too.

[@kristend.242]

That's how all their videos have felt, in my opinion. No organization or structure.

[@NoviceNouns]

@@kristend.242 I think I'd argue the opposite. Creating 7 videos a week is no small task and that requires some special project management. I've been impressed before that they've given day and date for specific videos in other videos before. That doesn't happen by accident. Do they make an editorial decision to make videos a bit more chaotic? Sure. But I think it makes us feel closer to the action Vs the sterile nature of some other reviews. I will say when multiple videos are filmed on the same day you can sometimes tell that they're rushing to get things done, but when folks like Fry aren't permanent Florida residents then I understand why. In this video, all I see is the AE journalists doing what they do best - doing a challenge of if they can go through F&W in one day while still being entertaining and informative. We have DFB and the blog for deeper dives. Appreciate that not everyone may vibe with that though 🙂

[@kristend.242]

@@NoviceNouns there are plenty of other reviews that are more organized and not at all sterile. 😂 as someone else mentioned, the priority (in my opinion) should be quality videos over quantity.

[@ellenblood415]

IMO, just not good since Molly left.

[@patchworkponderings2835]

Love you guys but DFB Cassie stole the show with her reactions 😅

[@rosewood7049]

It was great watching all the reviews good and bad. I think Cassy should get the badge of Courage today. She drank and ate things she didn't like for a review - especially the pickle shake! Also what happened to Sage? Love it all though. Thank you so much!

[@PoppaSquat-et3qp]

Can I take my water cup up to the booth windows Breedlove?

[@emilypeduto981]

it's driving me insane how much encanto merch there is for food and wine but it ISN'T of julieta.

[@kshwick17]

@fry outfit ?

[@mdf3530]

Watching Cassie’s reaction to the seafood pie was hilarious 😂

[@jacquelynbroadfoot7596]

I was not a fan of the cheese bread last year.

[@probablynargles]

Those chilaquiles are not it 😂 it's supposed to be soft and saucy and theirs just looks like nachos

[@Bungletronics]

Supposed to be tossed in the sauce too right?

[@juliamontejo1520]

@@Bungletronicsyep, if you want to try better, accessible chilaquiles, try the ones in the Trader Joe’s frozen section

[@kevwwong]

Cassie seemed to be rather generous with her assessment. She might be a bit too nice - not a bad thing, of course, but just not the best thing when you're trying to convey what the food is like. I mean, she noted that a sangria was "almost like water". Most of us would just call it "heavily watered down".

[@piergiorgio9094]

Emma Lisa Vito ova heer!

[@jefffletcher8761]

I cannot tell if anything is good unless I have a Jonas level attached to it.
