ULTIMATE FOODIE GUIDE: EPCOT FESTIVAL OF THE ARTS 2024

[@coriehernandez1004]

You and your friends are quickly becoming my favorite vloggers. I love your non-pretentious descriptions of the f&b you try!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thank you so much Corie!

[@wendyworobey9363]

"It's like butter, but it's not good," from the background cracked me up!

[@shannonchampion6690]

I always look forward to your food reviews! You are living proof that even picky eaters can find something amazing at these festivals! Thanks again! Enjoyed it!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thank you for watching!! Not sure I would consider myself picky though 😅 the only thing I will not eat is mayo. Anything else is fair game. There is definitely stuff for everyone at the festival though 😊

[@shannonchampion6690]

@@wrightdownmainstreet picky was probably the wrong word. But I appreciate that you don’t like everything you try, and you don’t sugar coat it for us. If you don’t like it, you are very honest about it, and I love that! We enjoy your videos!

[@NicholeLaBar]

Thank you so much for your reviews! We had the skirt steak sandwich, it was so good!!

[@aprilrains973]

I don't know why, but whenever you say, "I wish" in your videos it makes me smile.

[@colleen1583]

Totally agree! This is the best festival hands down! I’m obsessed with your shirt. Thanks for posting!

[@andic8287]

I like that you show the menus and I also love your kicked back relaxed demeanor. I also love that you do real time reviews instead of editing the heck out of it. Your style is very relaxing and pleasant to watch! Cheers!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thank you so much 🙏🏼

[@SharonMorgan-gb9qe]

Hi Kristen, I am watching all these Festival of Arts videos from Pennsylvania where it is 20 degrees out and 40 mph winds! Watching yours and all your fellow vloggers!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thank you Sharon! Stay warm

[@Plantguypaul]

❤ YOU!! Thank you for your videos!! Can't wait to see you in Disney Land videos! We're going there in Sept! Videos are far and few for California!!

[@tomlee252]

the reaction to the bone marrow, your like mmmm, there all about to hurl

[@mariahpaparella8125]

A real one for dropping this video today!!! 🔥✨ been itching for a food guide drop!

[@jdl2496]

I think it is great that you display the menus and that you have a laid-back, easygoing vibe. I also think it is great that you do reviews in real time rather of overediting them. Your aesthetic is extremely soothing and enjoyable to watch. Cheers!

[@ChelsyLewandowski]

Loved this video as always! Blizzard coming in New York and binging ifarts lol! Your brothers video made me 😂 love you guys !!!

[@benzin1614]

Well done? That beef wellington is congratulations.

[@jeanc14]

Every time you say Be-ve-rage 😂 love it!

[@jessicasmith9599]

Thanks for your content, Kristen!

[@Pilot4Life]

Can’t wait to be there in a week. Love you and Phoebe doing good together. You both have great videos. Love them. I looked for you NYE but as you know only 100k people there. 🤣. Oh and beef Wellington I agree, looked bad. Maybe a bad batch.

[@angelaterranova1577]

Love the Arts Festival too but missing it this year so was great to see your fun vlog! Still lol over the “flexible curds”! 😂😂

[@louiseward1773]

Maria’s face after the bone marrow 😂 - priceless

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

I don’t know what they’re talking about, bone marrow is great 😂

[@gibson101803]

I had to check the Japanese writing at 18:28 and Google translated it to “Light Down Main Street”. Promise’s box was spot on.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Hahaa very close!

[@bubsmp]

Awesome breakdown. Will definitely checkout your pals sites.

[@cindymitcheltree7961]

I’ll be there in 8 days! Can’t wait to try some of these dishes! I hope I run into you and your friends! Thank you for all you do!

[@HareLife]

I need to go to this festival next year it all looks so good! x

[@efnaha9303]

So much fun! Love seeing all my favorite vloggers together - and we even had an Adam sighting in Japan🙂

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thank you for watching!

[@randy8651]

Happy New Years!!!! 🎉🎉🎉Thanks for an awesome video. You guys looked like you had a lot of fun making the video. I am glad you found the sweater that you were looking for - Randy 😊

[@amandafreeman7797]

Passed you and the crew in Canada!

[@tommywalker742]

Great video y’all are awesome!

[@thesamanthasouza]

FARTS is the BEST festival at EPCOT, and I stand by that. Hoping to make it this year!

[@tamara8349]

Ha! Loved Promise's comment about it being weird to not like aioli but to like bone marrow. 🤣

[@LBVTV]

So much fun with you, except when bone marrow time came. My face said it all lol. LOVE YOU!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Bone marrow time = the best time 😂😂

[@dominiquebrown8790]

There she is!😊

[@jacqueline600]

Hello after finding your vlogs they make me think about my trips to Disneyland(my first trip to Disneyland was the 2nd year it was open) and Knot’s Berry Farm. Great memories thanks for doing your vlogs and hope you do another Vlog on Disneyland. Have you ever thought about doing a Vlog on Knot’s Berry Farm and Sea World. There’s also a Lego Land and I can’t forget Magic Mountain. Bet you enjoy some of the rides there. Thanks again for your fun and entertaining vlogs, I look forward each week for you new one.

[@nataliedarby702]

I just enjoy You, Your Bro and all friends. Make me smile, laugh and of course wish I was at Disney. I’m a fan. Disney Granny

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thank you so much! 🙏🏼

[@DannyInDisney]

so honored i could get you your empanada without aioli!! it was great seeing you guys again!!

[@AngieMagz]

😂😂😂I loved this video and seeing all of y'all together and having a good time!! Also I love bone marrow 😂😂

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thanks Angie! I can see how bone marrow wouldn’t be for everyone. But once you get over the thought of what you’re eating it is pretty tasty

[@DisAmy33]

Yaaaas gurrl! I tried the pork belly with raclette cheese last night, it was so good! I’ll try the steak sandwich next time for sure!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

The pork was a fave of mine, but that steak was next level!

[@Itsmeashleenicole]

This was awesome! I can’t wait to try some flexible curd 😂😅 and have an excuse to play with my food

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Can we eat flexible curd together?

[@thesamanthasouza]

Ashlee lets try it together!

[@Itsmeashleenicole]

Absolutely!! Trying to figure out when I am coming into town! I will text!@@wrightdownmainstreet

That mint julip looked like a delicious beave-a-rahj

[@92sdolla]

Coulis is pronounced Cooly (mango and raspberry) 😆 great video!! some of the dishes with tough meat might be suffering from first festival day nerves, but fingers crossed they get better!

[@DisneyACC1986]

I love the videos thanks for sharing it. I have a question what’s your favorite Epcot Restaurant uh I’m going to Epcot for a day in March and I’m in charge of where to eat but I’m not sure?

[@16ktbear]

My huge calf made it in your video while I was waiting for my bff to stop searching for the perfect postcard. 😂 after she paid for the stuffed shells that I wouldn’t let her live down for at least an hour.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

😂😂😂 oh no how were the stuffed shells? I haven’t heard anything about them, but cannot imagine them being any better than ones I would find in the freezer section of my local Publix

[@16ktbear]

Having had the frozen Publix stuffed shells many times, you would be right, lol. The gnocchi poutine at the port was also a huge disappointment. It was cold and the meat was super tough. I’ll be back next weekend to try again. Hopefully it was just first day jitters!

[@corelladoll2051]

I can’t go to the Arts festival at Epcot this year. I’ve been 3 times since 2018. So many of these food booth items are repeats from the past. Then the menus have been scaled back to 2 food items? I can’t say I’m going to be upset over missing out. I like to see variety and new items. Great video!

[@Dolcevita_bakes]

Yay! I’m so excited because my first trip to festival of the arts will be February 6 although I wanted to go on my birthday which is the 16th it’s the big 5O so would’ve been great to celebrate it there but unfortunately it cost pretty much an arm and a leg and probably a down payment on a house to get down to Orlando from California for tickets to get in in a place to stay in yada yada yada so yeah I’m looking at about a $5000 trip so I’m saving up for that but I’m going to get there and I’m gonna be there February 6 and I can’t wait. I really hope there’s some vegan items!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

I always like trying some of the vegan offerings & did notice there weren’t many this fest. Hopefully there are more for Flower & Garden. Enjoy your trip!

[@theboringkaren]

I totally need a sake box!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Who doesn’t need a sake box!?!

[@raquelleggett824]

Hi Kristen! Just found your channel. I’ve seen you with Mr. Morrow and Kingdom Krew for quite awhile. Really enjoyed vlog. Have a great weekend!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thanks for watching Raquel 😊

[@lisar4113]

The bone marrow looked good but agree with Maria that it doesn't need balsamic or Greek seasoning. The risotto looked so disappointing and like regular rice, not risotto rice. Thank you for your honest reviews and fun video. Wish we were going!

[@greatbigbeautifultomorrow113]

Great review! I will be there the end of the month. Do they have thr almond cake from pop eats like previous years? I saw it listed on a website but didn't see anyone purchase it.

[@SydDisney626]

This video made me sooo hungry but also wanting to impulsively book a trip to WDW for the festival 😂😂❤❤

[@MJD123]

SAME!!! its the only epcot festival we've never done, i'm sitting here in freezing NJ, and ready to book a plane ticket!!! 😅🤣

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

I say do it!!

[@veronicameserve3052]

I just have to tell you how glad I am that you started doing you tube videos. You have become one of our favorites because you are so real. Loved watching your get to know you video. Hoping to run into you when I am back in a few weeks.

[@kathymcel]

We've been there during the festival but just bought some postcards. We've never gotten the food at a festival. We don't get there often so we'd rather eat in our favorite restaurants.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

The post cards are a great way to get art on a budget!

[@jen_dinsmo]

Great video! Looks like yall had a great time for the first day of farts 😊

[@TheJoker718]

I’m not even a seafood person, but those mussels look amazing 😮

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

The tomato garlic bruschetta style sauce on top was excellent

[@Just_Nita-i2q]

Looks so colorful and tasty Can't wait Oh and please tell Ryan thank you for the fart warning now we'll know to stay ten feet from Ryan the Crop Duster

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Do not approach Ryan in a theme park unless you have a mask on 😅

[@Just_Nita-i2q]

lol well it's a perfect place to fart too noisy to be heard by anyone lol farts are funny Lol

[@goldenhermit]

What animal and what bone on that animal is the bone marrow from?

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

If I had to guess, cow 🤔

[@SandraLovesSun]

Risotto is not flowing like lava like Gordon Ramsey would yell at people about. Looks like stodge as he would say. I can imagine the flavor is there, but that's not a proper risotto. For a theme park festival risotto, totally worth having so I still might try.

[@hydrangeababy768]

Fellow mayo hater here

[@carbonlethal6347]

“Light down Main Street” sake box ?🤔

They used to have a great bone marrow dish with clams over at Jiko! That’s where I ate it for the first time 😊

[@SuzanneA618]

@@wrightdownmainstreet oh wow! I think I got the lamb shank at Jiko💜 Bone marrow, to me, is like a meat butter or something. I just have it every so often.

[@SandraLovesSun]

That beef wellington should have been thrown out and remade. It was overcooked, past well-done, for sure.

Thank you so much for a food review without poop references. I’m a nurse and legit have to deal with poop on a daily basis at work…so when I have to hear about it in a food video it’s an automatic downvote and I stop watching immediately. I even wind up downvoting Nate’s videos, etc., to avoid hearing about poop with food. I’m sure I sound like a fuddy duddy, but seriously, it’s a huge turn-off for me. Please keep the poop out of the food videos.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

I am a huge advocate for keeping poop in food videos. In fact I wish some of this food was purchased from the poop deli

[@jenniferreed686]

@@wrightdownmainstreet that’s totally fair, but I’ll be navigating right away from these videos. I wish you the best!
