 Hey friends today, I am hanging out at Epcot and we're gonna continue our food adventure around World showcase trying all the different sit-down restaurants and today we are in the France Pavilion to try Chef de France. I'm very excited. I've never eaten here before and I think it's gonna be pretty good. So let's go do this and Here it is. I've never eaten here before so this is actually gonna be my first time But I do know that they have prefixed like meals so you can get one appetizer one entree and one dessert for 4950 but that also comes in one glass of wine So I'm probably gonna end up doing that because it seems like it's the best bang for the buck Normally I like to give you guys a little tour around the Pavilion itself that I'm dining at but today I'm running a little bit late for my reservation. So once they do call me I'll probably have to go in but I'll show you around a little bit and then once we get done with dinner We'll come back out and I'll give you a little bit more of a tour. I Notice they brought out the Beauty and the Beast topiaries for the flower and garden festival that starts actually next week So I'm excited but also the Beauty and the Beast sing-along is actually going on right now So maybe after dinner we'll come check that out and get a dessert from the bakery. I love the bakery back there It's my favorite spot. I Just got a notification. So now our reservation is ready. Well, the table is ready and I'm hungry This is gonna be good It is so beautiful in here. They have another restaurant. That's not open yet Monserrat Paul's But it's actually closed and it's upstairs, but I love the inside of this restaurant Oh, we're gonna get a nice window seat. It looks like oh fancy that I Really like the table that we got here. This is always a good surprise when you get to have an outside view I don't know why it just meets good for the lighting and just the dining experience I like looking at pretty things when I'm eating and You can just see everybody walking about enjoying the France pavilion and look those are the topiaries with Beauty and the Beast before Like I mentioned out front They are doing a prefixed meal where you get an appetizer an entree and a dessert and a glass of wine or soda And it's all 4950. So we'll take a look at the entrees and appetizers and see what we're gonna get I'm gonna try to get things I normally wouldn't get you know I mean so like if there's a go-to option that I always get at different restaurants whether it be steak or chicken I usually tend to do something different for like these different reviews because it's about Experiencing new food that things I've never had before We'll take a look at the appetizers first and you see that they have some really good choices They have some salads and some charcuterie's but I think I'm gonna go with the French onion soup because I like soup But I'm not too big on the cheese So we're gonna see how that works out and then for entrees they have salmon steak But I think instead of just going with the steak like I normally would do because you know, I like steak and potatoes I might get this bail boine and it's beef braised in Cabernet with baby onions carrots and leguini pasta That sounds like a good idea because like I said normally I would just go immediately for the filet But mixing things up a little bit as a part of the experience and then for desserts we have to do the crème brûlée Have to I Don't think I've ever had beef bourguignon or beef brandy before I've had plenty of Irish stews And I just I do enjoy stews a lot now This one is made with the Chardonnay and it's served with linguine pasta So it's definitely a big it's a big change up I would say and I'm excited to try it They also serve some Cronenberg here. I ordered the Cronenberg thinking I could have got this with a prefix meal But you can't so I'm gonna have a glass of wine come a little bit later But I'm still excited to drink this you can't say no to a Cronenberg, you know This is so refreshing What are we got baguette Maurice the baguettes That is really cool so along with that prefix meal that's $49 you also get a baguette and it's hot like oh, I'm excited Need a little butter a fresh baguette. This is this is a really good deal I Think I'll hang on to my baguette from where my French onion soup comes because that'd be good to dip in the French onion Soup and you know it kind of like a French dip maybe and I've been trying to take my hat off You know because I'm gonna be gentlemen like but the Sun is really really bright So I'm gonna keep it on until the Sun just moves to the left there just a little bit You know, I definitely want to be gentlemen and you take off your hat and fancy places and I feel fancy in here But it is really blinding me right there soon. It'll go down a little bit. It's still a beautiful view though So I'm happy The soup is here and I had a switch seats because the Sun was getting too much So now I actually on the other side of the table and look at all this goodness in here I am so excited to try this if you like the cheese. There's a lot of it. I'm gonna try a little bit with the cheese I just don't know if I like the the you read that it is Usually, I don't like provolone cheese is I'm very picky, but we'll see either way. I know I'm gonna love the soup itself A little bit of soup. Oh, that is some hot soup, but now I want to try it with the baguette So we're gonna break the baguette Look at that now we're gonna dip the bread in That's the way that's how you do it This is gonna be amazing. I already know The soup is great, but when you mix it with the fresh baguette. Oh man, this is just dunk ability right here Let's make sure we get a little onion and cheese this time to try it. I Have to say that baguette is amazing and I probably will save a little bit for my stew as well I know I like to eat stew with bread and I've never actually mixed in leguini pasta with stew So that's gonna be a new combination for me. I'm used to eating like, you know, just you know Firehouse stew and stuff like that. So it's never a server leguini Well, and as we were enjoying the soup the beef bouillon actually came and this looks Amazing actually it kind of reminds me of a pop roast. What pasta? I'm I'm I'm excited. I am ready to eat this bad boy right here I'm not sure how I do this because I want to try to get everything in one bite So we're gonna grab a little bit of the beef a little bit of the carrots and then a little bit of the sauce Well, the noodles and kind of just get it all on one bite. I Think this is the perfect bite size and we got some of the sauce on there I'm very excited The meat is just like a pot roast to me But what really stands out is the flavor like of the the sauce itself and you can taste the Chardonnay or the burgundy in there This is this is a very delicious dish actually I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I am right now like This is a sleeper right here folks. This is a sleeper and Of course, like I said, I kept a little of the been the been yay so that you can Kind of like dip the bread into the sauce So I'm gonna actually scoop up a little bit of the meat put it on the bread kind of make a little stew sandwich, you know what I mean add some carrots Oh, yeah, get some of that nice Arjun or the juice at the bottom put it on the bread and look at that a little stew sandwich. I Would definitely get this again. So if I come back here, I probably will try the filet But I mean this is right now as it stands my go-to dish now because I liked it that much And don't forget about the Cabernet. I'm not a big wine drinker, but it's okay. It's good It's funny because I probably know more about tequila than I do wine But you can still use all of the things that I've learned at my tequila tasting at San Angelo or at the La Cava and I can use it kind of towards tasting wine No, gonna get it to breathe a little bit and watch the tears actually come down a little bit to see that fancy and Here is the creme brulee. Look at this. I'm excited. I do love creme brulee I don't know if I should break a little bit off yet Oh, look at that Perfect and a little creme brulee to you This is much too good much too good It kind of is like a perfect texture and it's got a great toasted taste. I love this amazing. I Mean, I like creme brulee, but this is just really good. I really enjoy this creme brulee here. I Don't know why but this just reminds me of a perfectly toasted marshmallow. It is so delicious though I'm trying to get every little last quite out of there kind of scrape it all But with that it's the end of the meal so I think we're gonna go hang out around the actual France Pavilion a little bit Overall, this was an amazing experience especially for the price. I mean that prefix 4950 is a really good deal with the Wine the appetizer the entree dessert and the bread service. You get a big yet. So you can't go wrong with that That was a very delicious meal But like I said before I want to explore around the France Pavilion a little bit They have a lot going on over here and soon they're gonna have their own ride and that's gonna make it ten times better In fact speaking of it having its own ride. I was gonna use a restroom in there But instead I'm gonna use the restrooms. That's back at ratatouille who let the area ratatouille They have the restrooms open and I'm pretty sure the man himself Remi is actually out kind of like hanging out. Oh Yeah, there he is. There's Remi ready topiary ready for his ratatouille debut opening 2021 This is gonna be such an amazing attraction and I definitely think it needed it over here in the world showcase The whole reason that this whole entire back street opened up is so that they actually had a restroom because they closed the restrooms at Morocco and this is gonna be the main restrooms for the Pavilion So it's excited to just see this it's been here for a while But I wanted to come and just kind of walk down it and I can join it a little bit. I like the music too This will also be the first time you get this close to see the flower display over here Because any of the years before for flower and garden festival the only place that you can see it is walking over there By the International Gateway, so it's nice to see it right here I wish that they would have like a walkway that you could walk down there. Can you imagine just exploring down there They have the boat parked here Look at that. We've been so nice actually be able to take a stroll like that The other really cool detail that I like over this area is the benches because they have little remi chefs on them Like it's like such a perfect little touch just a little touch for the little rat Isn't that so nice? I love it and this guy over here. It's getting some food Yeah, I see you. Oh, what does he got there? Oh lordy? Now I want to walk around and enjoy some of the shops and even check out maybe the show like I said I think Beauty and the Beast is running right now, but it does actually switch to the actual Frayette show I'm not sure what time though Looks like the Beauty and the Beast sing-along is still happening and the depressions of France doesn't start until 6 30 So during the day they had the sing-along and then after 6 30 is when they switch over to the actual Frayette's like Preview or movie and I don't know might as well wait three minutes and check out the sing-along I know actually it looks like we're heading in right now one minute to go to the Beauty and the Beast sing-along Oh, I love all of the different costumes they have in here This is really awesome French storytelling on stage and screen This is Cinderella right here This is a really cool Exhibit the Phantom of the Opera Wow, I didn't even know this was in here and then over here they have Beauty and the Beast Well, look at this is pots over there I'm really really like this We must get going though. We don't want to be late for the show Every day like the one before Little town people Walking up to Yes, to be our guest put our service to the test It was actually really fun I think it was only one singing though and I didn't put much in because it didn't come out good on camera like you really can't record the screen it kind of has those lines in it and also Don't judge me on my thinking and We exit into the gift shop and the bakery which is also good because I wanted to get maybe a coffee Depending on the line since the show just got let out. It's probably very busy over here But they have some amazing like items in there They've got the espresso they've got the cappuccino and then tons and tons of different bakery items But it is a pretty long line. So I think we're gonna skip it for today I've come here quite often. I do know another spot. I want to check out though I came back out to the front of the pavilion because I wanted to show you another spot where I can get some coffee And that's right here at the creep stand. They actually serve cafe espresso and then also cappuccino So you can actually get it without waiting in the big line If that's all you're looking for is some coffee and that's probably what I'm gonna do You can also get a crepe I know I'm a little full but a crepe sounds pretty phenomenal right now So I might get a coffee and a crepe coffee and a crepe. I like the sound of that As you can see they have tons of different types of crepes crepes with ice cream Oh, a homemade hazelnut spread that sounds pretty good And then there's the coffee you can even get the Kronenberger beer here as well But I just went with the hazelnut crepe and a little espresso coffee and a crepe. I Was very intrigued on the sign when it said Hand-made hazelnut like cream. So basically they have house-made Nutella. So first I'm gonna try the crepe That's good. Oh, yeah. Oh Yeah, that's the good stuff right there very delicious. I really like this and the Nutella kind of just tastes like Nutella I mean, it's just a hazelnut spread, but they make it themselves and it's not Nutella They just do a good job and I haven't tried my espresso yet That's just espresso. I like how they have it in this little composable cup. Equal choice And with my espresso, I think I'm gonna call it a day here. Hope you guys enjoyed the video I enjoyed making it. It was so much fun. I'm not sure what I have left to do I know probably Morocco is gonna be next China doesn't have any Sit-down restaurants, but I might do the quick service like the nine dragons that's not open at the moment so I might do their quick service and then Oh, the Rosencrown is temporary closed for a refurbishment on the dining room, so Yeah, I don't know what we're gonna do next, but we'll figure it out. I also think a Character cavocates on its way. So we'll see you next time. Bye Well, would you look at that? Hi, Bell. I just sang to you. Oh, thank you
