<\/a><\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>Here I tried last years favorite, the Grilled Beef Skewer with Chimichurri Sauce and Boniato Puree and <\/span><\/span><\/span>Pascual Toso Sparkling Brut<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>The beef skewer didn’t disappoint.\u00a0 This has been an offering for years now and is always great!\u00a0 The wine was great also, mostly because it’s only $2.50!\u00a0 It’s obviously not quite as good at the $12 Moet, but it’s the cheapest bubbles in the world showcase!<\/p>\n Next stop, Singapore<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>Singapore was a stand out last year, specifically the Seared Mahi Mahi!\u00a0 I was so glad to see this return this year.\u00a0 I love curry though so I had to try that too.\u00a0 Here I sampled the Seared Mahi Mahi with Jasmine Rice and “Singa” Sauce, Lemongrass Chicken Curry with Coconut and Jasmine Rice, and <\/span><\/span><\/span>Marques De Caceres Satinela<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>The mahi was great, as expected, but I remember it being way way spicier last year.\u00a0 This years had very little heat to it, but the sauce is so delicious that it’s still one of my favorites.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>The curry was spicier than the mahi, but I still would have liked more heat.\u00a0 Again, the flavor was good.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>The Marques de Caceres Satinela, I’ll be honest, I didn’t know what this was, but I saw it was a recommended pairing so I got it.\u00a0 This wine was way way way too sweet for my taste.\u00a0 It was almost ice wine sweet.\u00a0 It was hard to finish even the sample cup (don’t worry, I rose to the challenge).<\/p>\n Next I made my second stop at China (I know, repeating countries already!) This time I tried the Mongolian Beef in a Steamed Bun and Silk Ice Cream Ribbon in Mango (depending on the day they also offer coconut or strawberry).<\/p>\n The ice cream was an interesting texture, but didn’t have much flavor.\u00a0 I could be convinced to try it again if I were there on coconut day.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>The mongolian beef was actually very good.\u00a0 The beef was cooked well, it had a spice sauce and crunchy noodles for texture.\u00a0 This one was an excellent snack.\u00a0\u00a0 I even read one list where this one made the best of the festival.\u00a0 While I wouldn’t go that far, it was very good and definitely worth a try.<\/p>\n Next we made the short walk to South Korea<\/p>\n Here I tried the Kimchi Dog with Spicy Mustard Sauce, having heard a lot of buzz around it.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>This doesn’t look like much ($3.75 for 1\/2 a hot dog?), but was actually really tasty. The dog itself has a little bit of spice which was nice, but the spicy mustard makes it.\u00a0 The spice in the sauce was the perfect amount of kick without being overpowering.\u00a0 The slaw also added a nice crunch.<\/p>\n Next stop Brewer’s Collection to finish out my flight experience.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>I had previously tried flight #1, so this time it was on to flight #2.\u00a0 This flight included a 6oz sample of <\/span><\/span><\/span>Radeberger Pilsner<\/a>, <\/span><\/span><\/span>BraufactuM Palor, BraufactuM Roog Smoked Wheat Beer, and BraufactuM Darkon.<\/a><\/p>\n If I had to rank these I would say<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>1-BraufactuM Roog Smoked Wheat Beer<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>2-BraufactuM Darkon<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>3-BraufactuM Palor<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>4-Radeberger Pilsner<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>I guess you can tell that the BraufactuM stole the show.\u00a0 The most interesting (and my favorite) of these was the Smoked Wheat Beer.\u00a0 It has a very interesting smokey taste similar to that of a lapsang souchong tea.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>We needed a break from all that beer and decided to check out the Chase Lounge.\u00a0 I’ve touched on this in a previous post, but the Chase Lounge is a great resting spot in the middle of the world showcase exclusively for Chase Visa card holders.\u00a0 Here you have access to free soda, a cash bar and some air conditioning.\u00a0 If you would like to take advantage of the lounge just look for this sign.<\/p>\n It’s in America across from the stage. Go to the area to the right of the American Adventure and you will see a queue set up.\u00a0 Once inside you have access to this sweet coke machine that my cousin is modeling.<\/p>\n They also have a table for coffee service and a cash bar that sells beer and wine.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>In a separate room there are tables and chairs set up with a phone charging station and various Disney board games.\u00a0 This is excellent for parents that want to be annoyed that their kids would rather play a $10 board game indoors that enjoy the probably hundreds of dollars they spent to get into the park.\u00a0 We choose to play Disney Memory, a pretty fitting drinking around the world game.<\/p>\n After wiping the floor with my opponents it was time to head to…<\/p>\n Florida Local!<\/p>\n There has been a lot of buzz around this booth this year and I was very excited to try it.\u00a0 Here I ordered the Florida Grass-Fed Beef Slider with Monterey Jack and Sweet & Hot Pickles and Cigar City Brewing Florida Cracker Belgian-style White Ale<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span> at the suggestion of Kasey from Kasey Knows Orlando<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>I was just as excited about this meal as this duck.\u00a0 As you can tell the pickle size varies greatly.\u00a0 Mine was the one with the almost non-existent pickle, which was fine by me.\u00a0 Pickles are the one food I allow myself to absolutely hate.\u00a0 I ate this pickle because it was part of the whole experience and it was small enough that I didn’t find it disgusting.\u00a0 Quite the opposite actually, this burger was really good.\u00a0 If I had one criticism it would be that I would like some sort of sauce on the slider, but it was still enjoyable.\u00a0 If I liked pickles though, I would have been upset that mine was so much smaller.<\/p>\n The beer was very good too and it complimented the slider perfectly.<\/p>\n Unfortunately I was getting pretty full by the time we hit Morocco, usually one of my favorites.<\/p>\n I did manage to find room for some baklava, but I can speak from experience in years past that every item here is delicious and I will definitely be back for more.<\/p>\n What can I say?\u00a0 It’s baklava!\u00a0 It’s the perfect combination of flaky chewy goodness.\u00a0They have this year round in the bakery inside of the quick service restaurant in Morocco, but there’s something special about getting it at the festival.<\/p>\n The next stop really blew me away,<\/p>\n Belgium<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>To be honest, I was a bit disappointed in Belgium’s menu this year.\u00a0 The last 2 years they have had great mussels, but this year they are only offering waffles (because that’s all that Belgians eat right?).\u00a0 I had heard good things about the Savory Potato & Leek Waffle with Braised Beef so I decided to go with that.<\/p>\n I was regretting my decision up until my first bite because the entire booth smells like delicious melted chocolate and I was beginning to think I ordered the wrong thing.\u00a0 Wow!\u00a0 I’m so glad I decided to try this one.\u00a0 It was really interesting having a savory waffle and the beef was perfect and tender.\u00a0 This one is definitely a contender for “best of the fest”<\/a>.<\/p>\n Final stop of the day, Desserts and Champagne.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/span><\/span>By this stop I was super full.\u00a0 I will for sure try the trio next time, but I just couldn’t take it today.\u00a0 I decided to try the Frozen S’mores.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
