Set among millions of blossoms, classic topiaries and live entertainment, new Garden Marketplaces are making their food and beverage debut at the 20th Epcot Flower & Garden Festival presented by HGTV. Taking place March 6-May 19, 2013 at Walt Disney World Resort, the annual festival will highlight the natural progression from garden to table at the 12 Garden Marketplaces around World Showcase.
“That progression is showcased with raised garden beds around the marketplaces that will be growing some of the produce and herbs in the dishes,” says Epcot Executive Chef Jens Dahlmann. “We want to show our guests how food grows to help make that connection from the kitchen to the garden.”
“Each marketplace has three to four dishes, and they are unique to the festival,” says Dahlmann. Culinary creations from Epcot chefs range from smokehouse barbecue to sweet “frushi” made with fresh fruits and coconut rice, and are paired perfectly with refreshing brews and beverages at each location.
Garden Marketplaces, including location and food and beverage offerings are below. Menu items noted with ** are part of TRYit, Disney’s new campaign that encourages children to try something new.
