When you visit The International Food and Wine Festival at Epcot you have the chance to try amazing dishes from all over the world. Many people may think that with all the specialty choices available, it would be a waste of time to visit the America Pavillion. While there are a lot of exotic options, it’s not a mistake to make a stop in Epcot’s America! The festival menus are put together by world-class chefs and this location shouldn’t be overlooked just because it’s “homegrown”.
The new Rotunda Bistro at Epcot’s International Food and Wine Festival surprised everyone with one of the best dishes of the festival this year! Located in the American Adventure, the Rotunda Bistro serves a delicious Wild Mushroom and Truffle Tart. The tart consists of a flaky buttery tart with a rich mushroom and cheese taste. Grabbing this popular new treat, then cooling off inside the American Adventure should definitely be on your festival itinerary. But if you aren’t visiting the festival anytime soon, give our Wild Mushroom and Truffle Tart a try!
