Day 2, Part 5: So Much Food!
After a fantastic break in the AC, I started to get ready to head out again a little after 5, and was out the door by 5:30. I was on my way back to Epcot to get some dinner at the F&G food booths!
I was surprised when I got into the park to see that it seemed even more crowded than the previous day, which was shocking being a Monday! It was very reminiscent of a Saturday afternoon during F&W fest with the crowds, not quite as packed as a Saturday evening, but still decently packed. There were also much longer lines at the food booths than the previous evening (although to be fair the previous evening there were no lines so any line would be much longer )
This I have to say is my least favorite thing about Covid Disney. Epcot seems like THE place to be in the evenings now, so while I’m used to going during weeknights and having low crowds, almost every evening now was super crowded. I’m especially worried for our September trip since I saw on some conference websites that are occurring in September that they are selling tickets to an Epcot Fireworks dessert party, so it sounds like Epcot fireworks will be back by then, which will just make it even more packed in the evenings. Hope they bring back fireworks in other parks too to at least distribute the crowds more evenly!
Anyways, moving on!
I took a bunch of pictures of the topiaries while on my way to the first food booth.
I love these, it’s so amazing how detailed they are!
The first booth I stopped at was Canada, this time for the steak.
This was delicious!
While eating I watched them testing the arms on the big ol barge. The more I look at these barges the uglier they get...
After wrapping up my steak, I made my way over to the Honey Bee-stro where I picked up the chicken flatbread and the Honey Peach Freeze with blueberry vodka.
The flatbread was amazing, such great flavors, and I love the goat cheese on it! So good! The Peach freeze was ok, they just pour the vodka on top of the freeze, so it’s not mixed in, and of course I didn’t think to get a spoon, so the first sip was very vodka-y!
Fortunately I got a table right next to the booth, so I quickly grabbed a spoon to mix and got back to enjoying my meal.
My next booth with the Flavor Full Kitchen. Here I picked up the Seared Salmon.
View from my table!
This was another great dish, the flavors were fantastic!
When I wrapped up there I was getting full, so decided to wander around taking pictures of the topiaries!
I absolutely love that they themed the topiaries in the construction zone to go along with the construction with all the tools and nails!
