 Hey friends today, we are hanging out at EPCOT for the International Food and Wine Festival 2023 There are a bunch of new food boots that just opened up today And I wanted to come out and try some of the food and let you guys know what I think After that we're gonna head over to Magic Kingdom And I'm gonna meet up with an old friend of mine from out of town for Mickey's not so scary Halloween party So I figured we come on out eat some food ride some rides and have a beautiful EPCOT kind of day Anywho's let's go do this It is another hot day out today in Florida and watch what it says when I ask what the temperature is What is the temperature in EPCOT right now? The current temperature in EPCOT is 94 degrees due to the current humidity. It feels like it's 106 I don't know why Disney doesn't just open up everything for the Food and Wine Festival when the festival starts Maybe because they want to keep people coming back and it worked because look here. I am I'm back And I'm excited to show you guys some of the new offerings that they have and also even though It's super hot out at least it's not going to be as hot as the first day And it's not going to be as hot as the first night for Mickey's not so scary Halloween party Now because I already did a Food and Wine Festival opening day video where I covered like 98 of the festival I'm only going to be focusing on the new boots that just opened up today If you haven't seen my first Food and Wine video, please go watch it Especially if you are planning on coming to the Food and Wine Festival because in that video I spent like $200 and I bought like 30 items like 30 different food and beverage items from all around the festival And it's like it's literally like almost an hour long. So lots of information in there But right now I want to get into the two boots that are opening up today The first booth we're going to be stopping at is Hawaii And this just officially opened up today And here's a look at the menu that got a kalua pork slider With sweet and sour dole pineapple chutney and spicy mayonnaise. They've got the spam sushi They've got a passion fruit cheesecake. And then they also got some kona brewing company Some beer and then the alani sunrise right down here. This is vodka Dole pineapple juice and grenadine for $14 and I think we're gonna we're gonna get it all I'm meeting up with my friend Ryan and he's making a video for his channel for the love of logging And I'm just kind of pumped to try some of the new food and Spoiler warning one of the new boots is actually the noodle exchange I mean, it's not new. It was here last year, but it's opening up today And like I mentioned, it's very hot out. So it's not really the best climate to be eating some hot soup But uh, I'm here for it Here is a look at the food and I got the pork slider with the spicy like mayonnaise on the side And it was really cool because they made a little hidden Mickey with the the mayonnaise Ryan ended up getting it with it on it and you can actually see it right there It looks good. And then I'm gonna try the spam sushi. I mean, I'm gonna try it But like I said, I'm not a big sushi fan and the passion fruit cheesecake looks good So we got lots to try. Oh, and I don't want to forget about the uh, alani sunrise I spilled a little bit, but this looks so refreshing especially in a hot day First things first, I think I'm gonna try the drink only because I'm so hot and I need something to drink But uh, yeah, here we go That is so good. You can't really taste any alcohol like there's vodka and they can't taste the vodka The pineapple is just so amazing. It is such a refreshing drink. Oh The only downside is it's 14 dollars and at that price you couldn't get yourself a margarita at Mexico So you got to really love the pineapple or uh, you got to just really want to spend a lot of money on drinks You'll drink super fast because they are delicious Ryan's actually rocking one of the new disney 100 roosevelt shirts. Look at that Both of us are actually today. We both this is all uh series three I was afraid we'd be matching. I was waiting. I was hoping we'd be matching so we can do the shirt brothers skit Okay, do you ever see that? We'll have to plan it out next. Yeah. Hey there shirt brother. Oh, I do shirt brother It would be funny. You know what I mean, but it's got to be an accident. It's got to be an accident Yeah I think I'm gonna start by eating the things in order of what I'm gonna like the most To the things that I probably won't like so much Hinting at that sushi there Like I said, I'm not too sure I'm gonna like it a lot But I mean, this isn't you know for people that Like like sushi, you know, I mean you might like this. I don't like sushi So of course, I'm probably not gonna like it, but I'm gonna try it just to see what it's like This slider is huge. Look at that. Like I think it's a lot of the chutney on there But uh, it's still got a pretty good amount of pork in here and I'm excited to dive in I think this is the king's hawaiian roll too. Those are the best That is so good I love it. Wow Like there's no barbecue sauce. All you're doing is getting the flavor From the pork and then the chutney now there is a little bit of spice in there So you got to be careful not much spice though because like I'm not a spicy eater and I like this a lot But holy moly that is a good good item right there Ryan actually tried it with the spicy mayonnaise on it. How is it? How's the spice level? It is not spicy whatsoever I'm like mine was a little like there's like a little spice I think that's just the jalapenos and the chutney but like there's no spice in the mayonnaise I honestly just it feels like it's not adding to what normally you'd expect from a spicy aioli on any type of sandwich It's not overwhelming whatsoever. It's on a rickter scale not a rickter scale a calvin scale of like I don't know 20 20 percent All right, well, I really love the pork slider Now i'm going to dive into the cheesecake because I think i'm going to like the cheesecake A little bit better than i'm probably going to like this watch. I end up loving this I think I had it last year But I didn't try it with the sauce on it because I was kind of a plain jane But this year i'm going to go all in Uh, but yeah, so now we're going to dive into the cheesecake and this is a passion fruit cheesecake And it looks like that's macadamia nuts on top there I mean, I'm not even the biggest fan of cheesecake, but i'm still interested and that's all that matters You got to try you have to try I'm a big fan of macadamia nuts. So at least I know i'm going to like that. So here we go I love the macadamia nuts part about it. I mean it's I mean it's a cheesecake if you love cheesecake You're going to love this me on the other hand. I would get something different I would definitely stick to probably the carrot cake or the uh, the uh, Guinness, uh, or it's the billy's pudding cake that's over in ireland. That one's really good Ryan doesn't like sushi either, but I think since i'm trying it maybe he's going to try it You know I will try a bite. I will try to put it in my mouth and try that's what I mean We're gonna try it. We both don't like sushi. So we're gonna give it a go Now honestly, this is probably the best sushi for someone to try if they've never had sushi before or afraid of trying Like raw fish because I'm pretty sure Uh, I think there's just spam inside there, but I don't know what else is in there I got to look at the description a little bit. So I'm just gonna I'm just gonna go I'm just gonna go for it I'm just gonna go for it and see how uh How it turns out so cheers All right, I saved a piece for you All yours buddy, okay fine. Yep Not for me. Nope Shockingly it wasn't that bad. I mean, I was really playing it up that I was gonna hate it, but I don't hate it I just don't prefer to I don't want to eat it like I don't want to eat more of it um, it tastes just like uh Like a sushi would without the fish and I know there's other sushi you can get that actually doesn't have fish in it But I feel like that's gonna be Nope frushi. Frushi is gonna be the closest thing to me liking sushi Like frushi is the closest thing I would say Enough of the hawaii business We're making our way over to the next boot that just opened up today And this one is the noodle exchange and this is a bunch of ramen and they actually have like a beef one They have an impossible pork udon and this uh impossible one still comes with chicken broth So I don't think it's vegan. Um, and then they have a Thai shrimp and a tofu ramen too And I think uh, I might get two of them. I might try the shrimp and the beef I mean, you can't turn down a nice hot cup of ramen on a 106 degree day at Epcot, you know You might actually hear me pronounce ramen differently Sometimes I like to say ramyeon Ramyeon because growing up we used to eat ramyeon and ramyeon is like the cheap version of ramen Like we got ramyeon At like the dollar store or at that time it was called the 99 cent store And uh, that's what me and my brother and uh, we used to eat a lot growing up and it was called ram yum So I always grew up thinking ramen was ram yum and sometimes I slipped So you might hear me call it pork ram yum I decided on getting the shrimp. Uh, I don't think this is actually ramen though. This is like something different It's shrimp. Oh, it's Thai shrimp And um, then I also got the beef the regular one and this one comes with a spoon The other one didn't come with a spoon, but I like how they add the broth right there for you Look at that lots and noodles. I'm excited I'm just sitting here trying to eat my ramyeon and pluto's walking by being a good boy Look at that If that was Gracie she'd be over here asking me for some of my ramyeon I'm gonna try the beef one. This is like the regular ramyeon first Only only because I you know what I like to eat my uh Soup a little different I like to get some of the broth and then I take some of the noodles And then I take some of the peppers and all the other good stuff and I put it all inside the spoon So it's like you're eating all of the soup, but in one bite you get a little bit of everything in there So here we go. This broth is so good and so flavorful. I love this dish and it's not too hot Like it's it's hot, but it's not like super super hot Uh, and I guess I guess that's a good thing. I don't know. It's hard to tell these days I don't know what's what's supposed to be and what's not supposed to be anymore All right, now I'm trying the Thai shrimp and I I have no idea what to expect from this one You do get a lot of shrimp. Oh, the tails are on them. Oh, look at this. I'm gonna pull my tail out. Look at that Look at that. That's how you that's how you take the tail off a shrimp right there Cheers. Oh, actually I'm gonna grab some of the noodles too. Oh wait. I don't know I thought maybe initially I was gonna like this one better But I think I'm sticking to the traditional the flavor and the the broth for the original ramen is just so good This is still it's pretty interesting It's definitely different, but I think I'd stick with the uh the beef one first I still like it though. I think they're good choices. It's just hard to eat on a hot day, you know All right, enough of the ramen business I do have to say the original one was my favorite and now that we're all hot and Filled up on soup. It's time to make our way over to the magic kingdom So we can meet up with my friend and she's gonna go to uh, Mickey's not so scary Halloween party I'm so excited The lines to get in Mickey's not so scary Halloween party are crazy. They've got like traffic Like coordinators people directing traffic because there's so many like mass amounts of groups of people coming from all different directions That they're just coming everywhere. Like look at this line going all the way back. Look at this This is all people waiting to get into the party This is all part people waiting to get into the party and then on the other side There's people waiting to get in the party. So they're letting different areas in at each time So this side's all going in and then that side and then this side. That's insane though, right? That's that's a lot of people.
