Murphy’s Law Takes Vacation — The World’s Longest Dream Review (Part Six)featured

by Nicole on February 17, 2013

Posted in Cruise Reviews, Disney Trips, Pre-Cruise

As I alluded to a couple weeks ago, this review (and the next one covering our cruise on the Dream last April) are going to shift to a pictorial review (read: more pictures, not so many words). Depending on how much time I have, our most recent Disney trip might be a more traditional review. And our upcoming Allure of the Seas trip in May will definitely revert back to a full traditional review (we just booked an over the water cabana for our stop in Labadee! Yay!).

Early morning at Epcot

Strawberry Shortcake from Sunshine Seasons. Yum!

Bumming around Future World

World Showcase time! Conquering Food & Wine fest one booth at a time

Kalua Pork Slider with Sweet and Sour Dole Pineapple Chutney and Spicy Mayonnaise — Hawaii

Chicken Souvlaki with Tzatziki — Greece

Griddled Greek Cheese with Pistachios and Honey — Greece

Greek Salad with Pita Bread — Greece

Oh, Canada!

I don’t know why we always see skywriters when we’re in Disney World.

Chicken Chipotle Sausage with Sweet Corn Polenta — Canada (holy cow, this was spicy!)

A $5+ sip of wine (what? I’m on vacation)

Maple and Moosehead Beer Glazed Salmon with Barley Salad

UK Calling

Cheese Selection (Aged-Irish Cheddar, Dubliner and Ivernia Cheese) with Apple Chutney and Brown Bread — Ireland (note: the bread was disgustingly dry, but that Kerrygold on anything and it tastes like heaven).

Warm Chocolate Lava Cake with Bailey’s Ganache — Ireland

Nothing tops off an afternoon of grazing like…a late lunch/early dinner at Le Cellier

They entice you with dessert before they seat you. As if you’ll still be hungry by the time dessert rolls around.

The bread basket. Well, pretzel rolls + some bread no one else touched because it wasn’t pretzel bread.

I wish I remember what this was formally called but when it comes down to it, it’s a salad with some apples and walnuts in some vinaigrette.

A meat and potato skillet with a side salad (also lacking a formal name because…this was a year and a half ago)

Le Cellier House Burger

Wild Mushroom Filet Mignon (no time is gonna make me forget this steak. Melted in my mouth like buttah)

Stephanie and I decided to order a side of Poutine, having never tried it before. I imagine this isn’t all that close to authentic Poutine, or at least I hope it isn’t, because it wasn’t very good.

Some kind of crumble or cobbler?

Seasonal Sorbet

A delicious semifriddo that is no longer on the menu, it seems 🙁

Full tummies are for the weak. Walk it off. Shop it off. There’s more Food and Wine booths to explore! Viva la France!

Morocco Pavilion

Baklava — Morocco

Sangria — Morocco (incredibly dry sangria, for what it’s worth)

Belgium Waffle with Berry Compote and Whipped Cream — Belgium

Japan Pavilion

Italy Pavilion

Ravioli Di Formaggio all’Emiliana — Italy

The miniature town setup in the Germany pavilion has it’s own little F&W Festival

Germany Pavilion

China Pavilion

Norway Pavilion

We meet again, Future World.

How do I get a ticket into the bog? I wants.

It’s friendship, friendship, just the perfect blendship. When other friendships have been forgot, ours will still be hot. I’m not as clever as I like to think I am. That really is a song. We didn’t sing it. We just took the Friendship launch to the France pavilion for some more snackin’.
