Festival of the Arts Food Studios

Similar to other Epcot festivals, the Festival of the Arts brings a handful of food booths to the park! This festival has fewer food booths (Food Studios for this fest) than other festivals, however they have some of the best food options!

For us, the food booths at Festival of the Arts have the best food out of all the festivals. Maybe it’s because the temperatures are typically much lower during the months of the festival so food just seems better overall, or maybe due to how short the festival is they are able to use better quality ingredients, but whatever the reason the food at this festival has been pretty amazing.

Some of our top picks that tend to be repeats from year to year are:

  1. Tomato Soup with Pimento Cheese, Bacon, and Fried Green Tomato Grilled Cheese at Pop Eats. This is just perfect comfort food, the grilled cheese is so delicious, and the soup is perfect especially on those chillier days!

  2. Red Wine Braised Short-Rib at Pastoral Palate. We LOVE this dish, the short rib has always been so perfectly tender we haven’t needed to use a knife, plus we love the combination of flavors of the accompiaments of this dish.

  3. Duck and Dumplings at the Artist Table. This was a surprise love for us! The flavors are great, and the duck tastes a bit like turkey in this dish. Never knew we liked duck before trying this one!

  4. Beef Wellington at Cuisine Classique. If you’re a mushroom lover, this dish is for you! There is a pretty strong mushroom flavor to this dish, which we absolutely love. The pastry is thin and crisp, and the beef has been cooked perfectly the times we’ve gotten this.
