Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine
So you may have noticed an * next to some of the food menu items.
The * means it’s part of the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine, a special food stroll you can experience during the festival.
To participate, you’ll first want to get a Festival Passport when you walk into the park. It’s a small booklet that includes information about the festival. (If you forget to pick one up, they are often available where festival food and drinks are sold.)
Inside the Festival Passport, there’s a section where you can collect stamps. And you’ll get a stamp each time you purchase one of those menu items with a * next to them.
To recap, they include:
- Chorizo and Potato Empanada with Annatto Aïoli and Turmeric Aïoli (Vibrante & Vívido)
- Deconstructed Key Lime Pie (The Deconstructed Dish)
- Citrus-braised Beet Tartare (Gourmet Landscapes)
- Avocado-Coconut Custard Tart (Tangierine Café: Flavors of the Medina)
- Almond Frangipane Cake (Deco Delights)
- Enchanted Rose (Opening Bites)
- Raspberry Pastry Tart (Figment’s Inspiration Station Menu)
If you collect 5 stamps from buying 5 of these menu items, you get a prize! Just bring the Festival Passport with your stamps inside to the Deco Delights Food Studio (located near Port of Entry) and you’ll receive a free Artist Palette Cookie.
Please note that you can complete your stroll over several days – just remember to bring that same Festival Passport to the park each day!
Epcot Vacation Tips
If you’d like to visit Disney World so that you can enjoy the delicious Epcot Festival of the Arts food, then we highly recommend staying at one of the hotels closest to Epcot. You’ll have the option of either walking to the park or taking a relaxing boat ride.
You could consider booking a Skyliner hotel so that you can use the Disney Skyliner system to get to the park.
Those Disney hotels with Skyliner access are:
Of course, to attend the Festival of the Arts, you’ll need park admission. You can get discounted tickets to Walt Disney World here. We’ve used them for years and had great experiences. And you can up to $88 per ticket!
And make sure you have these 10 items to buy before a Disney World vacation, because you’ll end up overspending if you have to buy them at the parks.
