The space is in the final stages of a total remodeling that included moving the restaurant’s bar from the side wall and into the center of the room. As with Cityfish, there will be ample patio seating, but expect to see the side deck opened up more. Richie said the opening is on track for the middle of the month. The 20th Epcot International Food & Wine Festival is Officially Underway. The above video is from a previous festival a couple of years ago, but most of the information is still the same. ![]() Posts about iZon Orlando written by Sea World Mommy. The 20th Epcot International Food & Wine Festival officially kicked off Saturday. I was there as an invited member of the media. This is where I give you my suggestions for how to best enjoy the festival and all it has to offer. This year I have one very important recommendation: wait. I know it doesn't seem possible right now, but there is an almost certainty that temperatures will drop to something much closer to tolerable than what I experienced Saturday. Wandering around in the heat and the crowds, eating too much and adding alcohol to the mix is a brutal combination. At one point while waiting in one of the few lines that looked as though it would not take more than half an hour to get to the front to place an order, I actually thought I might pass out. I was never happier to purchase one of the exorbitantly overpriced bottles of water that I snatched from a tub of ice water, resisting, just barely, the urge to get in and submerge myself. Seriously, unless there is a specific event or personality that you must see in the early days, wait for the cooler weather that still is outside the foreseeable forecast. I must hasten to say that I was the only one I noticed who seemed to be melting. ![]() There were way too many people laughing and having fun exploring and even patiently standing in ridiculously long lines. I can't help those people.Īnd have I just never noticed in years past how many groups, each with its own custom-designed commemorative t-shirt, show up to be part of the festival's first day? There were engagement parties, sororities and fraternities and just gangs of drinking buddies.īut you're not going to listen to me, are you? You're already planning to hit the fest as soon as you can, maybe even this weekend (predicted high of 88 degrees with little chance of rain). Don't say I didn't warn you as you're begging one of the cranberry wranglers to let you into the bog.
