[Laughter] oh I wish you could have heard that all right well we are here if you are here watching uh say hello in the chat oh of course Susie’s here Soren uh we appreciate you signing on Susie I always I always send her her individual notification to make sure she sees it
Because we love when Susie’s on because we have dedicated the first segment here to Susie and what is that first segment Tia mug of the Day mug of the Day that is of my own creation there okay um uh where we at okay I’m totally not ready okay what are you doing right there okay go ahead all right it is time for mug of the day today we are talking about C so we had to go Epcot themed and we’ve got
Let me get mugs we’re we’re we’re going to do this ready go ahead put it up don’t put it close it back we’re gonna do this we’re gonna zoom in on the mug oh you’re zooming in on the mug yeah that way we don’t have to like autofocus and
Stuff so Tia has the brand new Epcot mug this is the Discovery series mug that came out first day of the Festival of the Arts this year and we just happened to see it in the store and yes it did sell out that first day and then my mug
Is this is an Epcot uh this is the been there series Epcot mug I’m gonna say the 2020 mug it came out the year before the uh 50th anniversary and this has all of the Epcot uh world showcase items a couple of fun things like uh the dreamfinders uh blimp there of course
Spaceship earth Earth Montreal all the good stuff and and land of imagination so put those next to each other this one this one has a big figment yeah okay so let’s let’s do a real quick slow turn ready we’re turning slowly so you can see both
Mugs all right mug of the day all right let me Zoom back out okay I guess we’re done with mug of the day hopefully everyone caught that who we got here okay Susie uh we saw love pugs popped in there real quick hopefully she still with us or he is
Still with us um and then obviously Susie like I said is here the best part yeah oh no mug of the day best part we did it for you now we do collect all of the Starbucks mugs so when they come out it’s our mission to grab them all right
What are we talking about today Tia we are talking dining options around Epcot snacks Quick Service table service popcorn popcorn carts all of it and we actually learned some things while we were putting this did she’s sitting here going hey did you know that at so and so
Restaurant there’s this and I was like no I thought it was just the one thing who knew well I mean we tend to go to the same place and get the same things we found our our favorite things and uh we kind of we kind of drift back that
Way we’re we are creatures of habit especially when we go to the parks because we know what we like we know what we can get in and out for and so looks like next time we go though we’re gonna be changing things up a little bit that at least that was what
She said well that’s what she said not in that way all right well we’re going to start with table service restaurants um I think the way we’re going to do this is we’re going to start with actually do you want to start with World Showcase or do you want to start with future
World um future world has less yeah yeah let’s do that a lot less okay so we’re going to start in future world and by Future world we mean anything that is not World Showcase so first oh let me get here we go table service in World Showcase the
First thing that we have is the coral we cor coral Coral weal we the coral we w w which is technically in World nature which is right next to the new Moana attraction um okay what do we got here coral reef right here um table service it is uh open for
Lunch and dinner Seafood mainly um there are some other options and it’s a they do have chicken and steak this is this location this restaurant is actually attached to the living Seas or the sees with Nemo whatever they call it now if you’re looking at the entrance to where you get
On the ride all the way to the right hand side is this little cubby hole that’s where the entrance is at so if you’re wondering what I’m talking about where in the Seas is this it’s off to the the side mhm and you can view um some of the living Seas from
From the inside yeah here look at the pictures here you’re actually looking at the big aquarium there that’s right next to the tables so that’s pretty cool you can see right right into there and if you know where to look when you’re actually in the living Seas you can
Actually see down where this place is we’ve never actually eaten here but we have been there on a tour correct um I’m not a huge Seafood person so that’s probably the main reason we’ve never been here I mean there are options that I could choose from but it is a little
Pricey um I don’t know one day one day we’re gonna one day we’re gonna try chicken and then they have um prime rib but most of it is seafood seafood seafood seafood shrimp uh fish and and some desserts clam chowder that that kind of thing so if you’ve
Eaten here let us know let us know what you thought is it worth trying if for nothing else to view I mean you can watch the watch the fish while you while you eat so we have been in there like I said during during a tour we did one of the backstage tours
At Epcot and they have this piano in there I believe it’s it’s an acrylic piano I think I’m 99% sure that was in this restaurant and it’s like kind of up in the entrance where you come in and I’m guessing there’s a piano player that
Plays in there and so it’s really neat I remember seeing that I’m hoping it I was remembering it in this restaurant but I think I am I I vaguely recall the tour guide telling us about the piano so if you go in there take a look at that all
Right next we have you know what we’re going to do this one first we’re going to do space 220 this is a brand new restaurant uh it’s right next to um mission space if you want to get to the entrance you kind of go where you’re going in the entrance to get into
Mission space and then bear off to the right and it kind of goes around the back of the building so the the hype about this is that you’re actually going up a transport into space and you get to look out the window and see space basically space
Space station ship’s going by it looks like you’re in space plus you get to um in your transport you get to see the Earth leaving you behind so that’s pretty cool now what kind of food do they serve here that’s the question um I don’t know we’ve never been there
But let’s look at their menu what I do know is that they are very expensive yeah it’s a little pricey um $55 just for lunch and that includes the appetizer and a main course no dessert but for dinner $79 per adult which includes dessert and you get one appetizer an entree and a
Dessert so you can see your list of appetizers here’s the main courses and then also oh I was gonna say it says space station supplementals if you choose to get a 24 ounce bone and ribey it is 20 additional dollars on top of your 79 um
And then if you want the lobster it’s $18 on top of the 79 so be aware of that that you can’t get those two things unless you want I mean granted 24 ounce ribey is pretty darn big so and there does seem to be a lot of uh
Variety to choose from uh chicken salmon pork chops fetan so pretty yeah and I’ve heard the foods really good I’ll mention the dfb one more time um the dfb did a thing when they first opened and they tried everything now there’s a few things that were you know
Worth it and that weren’t worth it but overall I’ve heard the food is very good but understand that it is a prefix menu you will be paying $79 you’re not just going to go in for an appetizer although there is the option to go to the bar
Next door is that what you were gonna say yeah it’s actually on I don’t know if you have the link for it it’s on the other tab on our little spreadsheet here uh it’s just the space 220 Lounge um obviously they sell drinks but they also sell um some
Appetizers there we go there we go all right space 220 lounge and the lounge does open um usually around 11 or 11:30 good and it looks like you can get a lot of the items um Peace meal so you can buy the black hole fashioned well that’s
A drink that’s a drink sorry all the foods all the foods at the top okay okay there we go sorry about that your flight bites is the food that’s available so little appetizers so yeah all right what do we have next now this next restaurant is one that we have
Tried a few times we’ve done breakfast there a couple of times um we’ve done breakfast I think once and lunch and dinner we’ve also done this this is the Garden Grill and it is located in the land Pavilion this is a character dining and it the characters that you get to see
Are Chip and Dale in their little gardening outfits and you get to see Mickey Mouse in his gardening outfit and Pluto his overalls are just the cutest and and Pluto has his little he’s got his plaid neck neckerchief on um if you’re wondering where the
Garden Grill is go in the front door of the land and you’ll see it straight across from the entrance and it is revolving so it does spin as you eat very slowly very very slowly and you get views of um the ride with L um breakfast they it’s all Skillet
It’s all family style so all you can eat you can ask them to bring back as much as you want uh the picture that we’re looking at here is actually the skillet from dinner and it comes with turkey and the steak stuff and green beans and vegetables and mashed potatoes and
There’s macaroni and cheese and cornbread and salad so you get all of that it’s a good amount of food and the foods it’s really good um but also remember what you’re paying for is you’re paying for the the character dining so if you’re thinking hey well this wasn’t that expensive when there
Were no characters it’s because you’re paying for the character dining so um how much whoops how much is the food here did I write it down um yeah 47 for breakfast 62 for lunch and for adults $40 for kids for I assume that’s just the lunch uh lunch and dinner is the same
Lunch and dinner prices are the same at almost all of these restaurants except for one or two so uh this is one of our favorite we’ve had we’ve had at the Garden Grill two times for breakfast um and one time for dinner did I say that I
Did but that’s still wrong anyway it is yes well it’s right we’ve been for breakfast and I believe lunch and dinner oh we we haven’t been for breakfast twice Oh I thought we were okay oh well we’ve been and that’s all that matters for lunch and dinner and breakfast moving on well moving
On she’s so testy uh let’s see here your mom says hi and she also says hey we ate there with y’all it was very good uhuh she went with us the first time that we ever went to the Garden Grill thanks for joining us all right what do we got
Next oh I guess we’re going to World Showcase now derp I don’t know he has the list okay we are now in uh future no we’re not in future world we are in in World Showcase actually I think the world showcase was the one that was up there the whole time whoops my
Bad all right so there is a huge debate as to whether um what what is it there are two people two types of people in this world and what are those two types of people those people that go to Mexico first or those people that go to Canada
First I’m be honest I neither one it just depends on where I want to get to the fastest so today because this is the order that I put it in we’re starting in can Canada first so the first table service restaurant we have in Canada well the first table service restaurant is in
Canada how about that and it is leler Steakhouse we have eaten there once and it will only be once probably yeah that’s probably the only time we will ever eat there um it was fine a lot of people swear by this restaurant we we have learned that the
And we’ll get into this when we go to talk about another restaurant later on but we’ve learned that don’t get your reservations right before the park closes because the restaurant closes their doors and they stop serving correctly about a half hour before the par closes you will not get the service
That you deserve if you get a late reservation you’ll get in but you won’t get the service and the food is about the same I mean I didn’t think it lived up to the height it absolutely did not um and I I’m not a steak person but you know there’s
Always options or almost always except for the night that we went except for here so I think they actually because you see there’s no chicken on this menu there no chicken like there’s almost always at least one chicken dish here there is not so I actually had to get
Some random piece of chicken that was like I guess meant for the kids menu it was terrible yeah I got the I’m gonna say I got the ribey but I’m not sure I either got the ribeye or the New York strip that’s you know here or here one of
These two I can’t remember it’s been so long and I’ve tried not to think about it because the experience wasn’t very good the the food I mean the taste of the steak was okay I could have cooked the same thing at home so it was a bit disappointing I feel like you’ve had
Better steaks Elsewhere on property I yes that was that was less expensive like the uh Skipper canteen the food there I’ve had is is very good this comparatively speaking was not and they have good chicken there yeah so anyway that’s kind of what you’re getting at at the lelia I’m not
Going to talk a whole lot about that it’s pretty and you get to go in underneath that big castle hotel that’s in there that they’re renovating right now but other than that it’s just it was very lackluster it’s not in in our experience not worth what what you’re
Getting not worth what you’re paying not worth the experience that we spent the time to do so so let us know if you had a much better experience at lelia all right next we’re going to continue moving on around the right side of the world showcase Lagoon and we’re
Going to hit up Rosen Crown dining room now be aware there’s Rosen crown Pub which most people know flows off the tongue better and then there’s the Rosen Crown dining room let’s go to the UK Pavilion there we go um we’ve never eaten here we’ve almost eaten here a few times but we
Haven’t actually eaten here and this is in the same building as the fish place with the Rosen Crown Pub and this is kind of behind the pub um and there’s that seating area back there that is seating for this specific restaurant you fireworks packages here do they still have those available yeah
Okay we just never have been able to grab one because they’re always sold out so we’ve never actually been in this one I’m sure the food is fantastic because I I like this kind of food um it’s just I I feel like it’s just a tad bit
Overpriced for what we’re willing to pay sometimes so $28 for fish and chips I mean I’m looking at the picture over here and it’s literally the same as what you’re getting out front so um bangers and mash love that but $25 for a little thing of mashed potatoes and some stuff I don’t
Know about that um and everything else everything looks so good I just one day we’re gonna try it one day we’re gonna try and we’re just G to be like you know what here’s $27 from a shepherd’s pie I love shepherd’s pie one day so I have I have no opinion
About this one way or the other regarding the food or the location we’ve always wanted to try it in one day we will um but I guess I guess that’s it for there uh then we’re going to move on to the France Pavilion the France Pavilion has quite a few restaurants Quick
Service um desserts fancy sitdown restaurants we’re gonna start with chefs to France as soon as I get this link open I wish I could move this thing out of the way all right chefs to France tell us about it because you have eaten here I actually have eaten here once um
Actually I think I only ordered off of the appetizer portion of the menu um it is a little pricey um it’s really nice in there I did feel a little a little uncomfortable because it’s fancy and I’m not fancy um but it was good um would I probably ever eat here
Again probably not um I don’t know they were running a special the time that I was in there they had some sort of like steak thing and you got like a glass of wine and possibly a dessert was all included and it was like
$75 so that wasn’t too bad um a lot of people in our party that day got got it and they said the food was delicious so give it a try and the people you were with are B capital b u g wow so they they know how to bouge and
France apparently is it so um now so to give you an idea of where this one is when you walk up and you’re looking at the France Pavilion that big glass building on the lower level that is this restaurant so you can’t miss it because it’s like the entire length of the
France Pavilion or with but the next one that we have uh we’re gonna we’re going to do this one then we’ll go to the other one after that okay so the next one that we have is Miss Paul this one on the other hand we have
Also never eaten here now I would like to draw your attention to these four dollar signs right here yeah she’s very expensive and neither one of us particularly are drawn to French quizine so between that and the price tag we usually uh steer clear so let’s take a
Look at these price tags shall we for dinner it’s only open for dinner and it’s a prefix menu and you can see the prefix price is $195 per adult plus tax and gratuity and I’m guessing you get um a well I guess this is everything that’s included
You get a starter cocktail you get uh you get to choose one of these I’m thinking for $195 you get to choose two of them just one so you get to choose one of these three items and then there’s a fish course a I don’t know
What that is I guess that’s the pallet cleanser course like on um uh what’s it called The Princess Diaries where she eats that ice cream but it’s not ice cream it’s a pallet cleanser um and then there’s a meat course and then there’s a cheese course and dessert
And I don’t know what’s at the bottom down here I guess that’s a finishing cocktail so a dessert cocktail so fany and that is upstairs in the same I guess in the same glass building you’re looking at for the chefs to France downstairs but to get
There you have to go around back to there’s a little a little door it’s like one of those spies doors you do the dtin dtin dink dink dink the secret knock and they go what’s the password and then they let you in and you go upstairs
So um does this one still have the dress code oh that’s right I forgot that I think it used to have a dress code Ambiance no before you go how about that no dress code there we go all right this restaurant is a Disney Signature dining experience offering
Fine dining and a distinctly mat magical flare guests are expected to dress accordingly in attire that aderes to the restaurant sophisticated and upscale aesthetic clothing should be clean neat and in good condition please no swimwear that does not necessarily say what you can and cannot wear no I thought it used
To like actually say that you had to wear like for guys like a jacket and yeah tie I’m thinking that it probably maybe it did maybe it didn’t I don’t know which doesn’t make sense to me because most people are going to a thing par all day and whatever
Yeah um okay the next French restaurant we have and we have eaten at this one as well and Brandon figured out he does not like Savory Crepes I do not because it’s not the Savory Crepes it’s the buckwheat and that is what they make savory Crepes
Out of and the regular crepes are also Savory they’re not sweet it’s just what you put on them but they give you buckwheat Crepes and let me tell you I was I don’t let food go to waste and I was struggling to eat this because the
Buckwheat is so repulsive and I will eat pretty much anything he ain’t kidding you and I will not waste it I did not let a drop of that food go to waste here we go buckwheat that brown stuff that’s buckwheat Crepes it tastes terrible so
Just be aware of it it was it had a very strong flavor we have a review of this up on our channel so go take a look at it you can get our honest opinions on the buckwheat Crepes and and this restaurant in general now this is
Located if you’ve ever been to um the Remy Pavilion like the France Pavilion and go back where the Remy ride is this is right next to where the q line is so it’s the only restaurant back there and we will talk about this a little bit
More in depth but there is also a walkup window that I think serves the same food I think or at least some of it or at least some of it yeah so if you don’t want to sit down and get a reservation you can you can do the walk up
Window um I think that’s all of the table service restaurants in France onto Morocco um if you’re joining us uh say hello in the chat and we will say hello back what do we have in the Morocco Pavilion oh we have spice Road table we have actually eaten a at this
Restaurant yep we did um one of the dining packages for Neil Patrick Harris candle light processional 2020 two two yeah yes that’s right it’s only 2024 now it is only 2024 now the kind of the Thematic element of this is that it’s all if you
Know what topis is it’s a lot of they put stuff in front of you and you just kind of pick at stuff you want to try it’s small plates yeah small plates so you can kind of get all of it or you can get some of it or get one thing at a
Time um it’s not it can be not expensive it can be very expensive depending on how much stuff you want to try so here’s the here’s the idea here you can get one plate of this $13 one plate of this $13 and just down the road so you can pay
Hundreds of dollars to go here or you can just get the one thing and and everybody can pick at it and try it so um and then they have you know all the normal drinks I’m not going to worry about that but I believe they’re oh they’re open for lunch and dinner okay
Um I didn’t dislike this place but it’s not somewhere that I would choose to go super often no I’m not it was good yeah it it was fine um all the only thing I really remember that I didn’t like about this restaurant is that the surface was
Terrible terrible like we were there we had 20 minutes worth of food we sat there for 2 hours cuz we never saw our waitress and we’re like we just need to get the check and man I’m thirsty cuz my drink is empty and there’s two tables in here I
Digress that is the only thing I remember that I did not like about this place so and I’ve heard other people say that they’ve had the same experience so take for that what you take with that what you will um moving on to the a Japanese
Pavilion um there are a lot of stuff has opened up in this this Pavilion recently uh the the we’re gonna start with tep is it tonito or tonetto I never know how to pronounce it so I always just say I always just say the cook and front of a Japanese
Restaurant and that’s what this one is this is your standard cook in front of you Japanese restaurant all the same stuff it’s about the same price as you’re going to get for whatever you have locally we’ve got a few locally um this is no different they do all the
Same tricks they form the the onion Tower and the volcano and they juggle things and it’s the same so if you’ve been to one you’ve been to all of them the only difference is sauces it’s fine it’s good food yeah it’s fine we ate there years and years
Ito yeah I think it was our honeymoon and I’ve eaten there with my family before that and it’s it’s a sit in front of you Japanese restaurant or cook in front of you Japanese restaurant so nothing fancy there it’s just normal um and that is if you go into the Japanese
Pavilion and you go up those big stairs it’s right there um the next one I believe is one of their new ones this one opened up like right before the world ended and this is how do you pronounce this this is Tumi um this is uh underneath I think
It’s underneath I’m not 100% positive what is over there like to the right like down it’s downstairs but you go and you go around the back of the building you can’t see what I’m pointing you can’t see yeah is it in this one let me
See if they have a picture of the front here no no it doesn’t look like it okay anyway so this is a very this is an experienced restaurant uh I believe that this is prefixed it better be prefixed at price it is um they only serve dinner
Yeah it says you have uh select from two prefix menus so one is priced at $250 per adult and one is $150 not positive what you get tax and gratuity and they actually have a children’s menu yeah so take your eight-year-old in there and pay $100 for them to eat no starting at
[Laughter] $100 so um it’s I I’m thinking this is kind of like M Pauls where you start here and you work your way down and there’s just a whole bunch of stuff you get to try a little bit of everything I’ve heard it’s an adventure it’s an
Experience there’s a lot of sushi which we do not eat so well this is all one menu right oh it is yes okay and then this is the plant-based version of this oh I see and then this is the children’s version of that well I’m glad that she
Understands that because I don’t really understand what’s going on there but all I know is that there is no way I would pay $250 for just me to eat sushi but let us know if you tried yes I mean I’ve seen I’ve seen people that have gone there I’ve watched reviews
Online and if this is your type of thing then I’ve heard it is very good because it’s I mean that’s this is another one of those places that I swear there was a a dress code and it is oh yeah um it’s the same dress code AS mcha Paul’s but
Um it’s sophisticated and upscale aesthetic and basically have neat clothes on everybody I’ve seen that’s gone there has been in nice clothes so it seems that these type of restaurants are more geared towards locals that have annual passes that can go in and not spend the ticket to get in plus go to
This fancy restaurant because this meal from what I understand it’s a two or two and a half hour experience so don’t expect to spend any less than that in this restaurant so because because they’re doing things in an order like if you were we’ve been watching Downtown
Abby lately and there is a dining experience that you start with and work your way through the night so all right I think oh no we got one more that they just opened up very recently I don’t know how to pronounce this and I will be honest about
That this is also in Japan I can’t tell you where it is in Japan but it’s shikisai sushi can’t pronounce this last word if you can pronounce it put it in the comments I don’t want to butcher that language so this place oh it’s right there oh okay that’s
Right this one is actually up it’s up with tto tanito it’s up there in that same spot but I think it’s more of what used to be the bar area there’s a whole separate restaurant up there um and it’s it’s basically a sushi restaurant that’s like all they serve up there it’s just
Different types of sushi and the whatnot so none of that looks appetizing to me no not me neither so yeah um so this isn’t this isn’t like super expensive this is just kind of a I think it’s kind of like the Moroccan restaurant where you just kind
Of buy stuff here and there but it’s all Sushi all Sushi oh we can get uh for four $300 oh that’s that big boat thing I’ve seen that on the interwebs interesting all right what is After Japan Tia I would like to say America but they have no sit down
Restaurants so we’re gonna move on to oh God here we go let’s start with one restaurant that we did go to this is in Italy we have actually now been to both of the sitdown restaurants in Italy but we’ll start with this one being napoi it’s a pizza place they do have more
Than pizza it’s it’s Italian but mainly pizza because pizza’s not Italian no I mean like you go in there and people are like oh it’s vietn Restaurante Pizzeria but they have like fancy Italian dishes too that’s what I just said they have more than pizza okay she said it more elegantly I guess
Than I did anyway continue I don’t even know what I was saying now they have more than pizza but we did choose to eat pizza because we heard because we heard that the pizza was good and it was and it was good what is it’s a margarita style pizza don’t Pizza
It’s the margarita style pizza and by Margarita I do not mean a Mexican Margarita I mean it’s margarita style pizza where it’s like the big pieces of um what do you call it mozzarella cheese and tomatoes and let me see if I can get
A picture of it here no no no oh there it was so that style of pizza what are you looking me for is that the style oh well I guess it’s not it’s well that’s the kind of pizza there’s Sicilian there two cilian style pizza is the window that’s outside it’s
Almost never open and then on the inside oh my god um tusin no oh my God clearly we were not prepared enough for this restaurant come southern Italy M oh Neapolitan there we go Neapolitan oh hence of derp okay napoi Neapolitan style pizza there we go but it’s margarita pizza is the
Neapolitan style pizza and not Neapolitan like chocolate vanilla and strawberry so don’t be confused so um we had that and it was extremely good watch our review online it is up there uh good or dining reviews and you can see it but we enjoyed it our service was
Good the food was good it was I mean you’re going to pay a little bit extra for this pizza but it is so good and I will so go back there like fantastic I I walked out of there going I can’t believe it I was not expecting it to be this
Good but then we move on to the other Italian restaurant we ate at this Italian restaurant was it our last it was our last trip which was two weeks ago again I made the mistake of making the reservation for right at Park close I made an 8:30 reservation when Epcot closed at 900
P.m. this is tuto Italia Restaurante now the food was delicious it was um I had some Yoki great you had a steak I did have the steak and you said it was cooked very well it was and the the flavors were very good um I’m trying to think of
What it was and I was going to go find a picture but um that’s but since we our reservation was so close to park clothes and restaurant clothes when we sat down the waiter asked us what we wanted to drink and we got Cokes um and he came back with two each
And we’re like why are you bringing us two drinks at one time well that’s because they were cleaning the machine because it was almost time to close so he wouldn’t be able to go get any refills at 8:30 so when did go there let see if I can find some of these pictures
Okay and also he was doing other cleaning duties as he was waiting on us which which I think was probably his last table yeah it was us and like one other table in the restaurant now I want you to look at this picture this is some
Of the glasses we had a table just big enough for the two of us and and he brought out six glasses for me plus the two waters Plus Ts two cokes yeah and they were on the table the whole time so I would if I were willing to pay
The price again um this is definitely a um one of the more expensive restaurants um it’s what two well it’s two $2 signs um it’s $3 signs because that is not accurate definitely not accurate if I were to try this again it would be in the middle of the day when there were
Tons of people in there and hopefully would have a better experience the food was great the service mediocre and I’m not blaming that on the guy necessarily because he had I mean he wasn’t great I mean he seemed like he was ready to go home he was he he he acted like he
Wanted to go home and we were inconveniencing him I mean I get that it’s the end of the night but you know guest number 90 and guest number nine should be treated the same way yeah so we mentioned we mentioned I guess last week or something that we would kind of
More elaborate but let’s just say I did have a chat with customer service on my way out of the park that day and he agreed with everything that we said that exactly what Tia just said about Guest number nine and guest number 90 should be served exactly the same and treated
Exactly the same and we absolutely were not we did have a little little chat like I said and he wrote up a report and he said we take this very seriously and we will be sending this over there tonight to whoever the manager was that
Night and we will get this taken care of I wasn’t expecting anything for free I did not want anything for free I just wanted to make sure that this was documented and that they they need to do something about this because I basically told him if if you’re going to shut down
The restaurant at 8:30 don’t have reservations available at 8:30 and so he he seemed like he was getting a little red in the face too because he was talking the same way about how he’s experienced that kind of thing at restaurants before and he doesn’t like it either and I appreciated
Him saying that he did I mean he he offered like a free lightning Lane for um the Guardians of the Galaxy ride to us which was nice for the next day but like I said I wasn’t looking for anything I didn’t want my money back I didn’t want that but
I thought that was inappropriate the way the way that they treated us and there was there was one other table in the restaurant and they were getting treated the same way so well I think the main issue is if you’re gonna if you if you need to shut the restaurant down at Park
Close then make your reservations end way earlier because you’re going to be sitting in there for at least an hour so if you don’t want to be there that long then you don’t need to make reservations that late it just it’s a fancy restaurant
Like I felt like I was out of my place in there because it was a fancy Italian restaurant not like be don’t be confused not like the Olive Garden this was fany you can tell by what it looks like in the pictures how fancy it looks but um
I they were they were lugging trash bags around on the floor to clean up everything instead of going out back and dumping in the thing they were lugging all around the restaurant and it was you know there’s probably leaving trash juice everywhere it was like I was like
Yeah what is going on here so I’m paying $30 for a bowl of noi and there’s trash walking by me so yeah anyo anyo we will move on that was our experience there there will be a full review up online whenever I can stomach watching our
Review on it and edit it down so we will move along to Germany also I think we’re going to split this up into two episodes because we still have a lot of table service left yeah let’s do that so we’re gonna do Quick Service and snacks and
Stuff next time sounds like a plan what time is it it is 5:43 543 yeah yeah let’s go ahead and do that then we can chat a little bit afterwards uh if you are joining us um say hello in the comments below and we will put you up on
The screen all right Germany where did we go in Germany we went to beer garden now we haven’t been here in a really long time but we have been here we have I liked it the only thing there I I’ll explain this in a minute there’s only
One thing I didn’t really care for about the restaurant but we’ll talk about that in a minute okay is it the way you’re seated yes do they still do that are you sure I’m 90% positive but go ahead we’ll talk about the food first um the food was good from what I
Remember it’s been a really long time since we ate standard German Fair it is Buffet mhm only open for lunch and dinner so no breakfast here where’s the menu oh sorry it is cool in there cuz they have the they have a show they have a show and you
Kind I actually think the description says you get to Oompa your way through your dinner all right so okay so dinner is uh 49 per adult 27 for children plus tax and gratuiti um lots of variety always have your allergy friendly options so chicken salad potatoes snitel sauerkraut Sal
Dessert not sure what spitzel is but it’s something we we had everything I tried everything I do remember that okay so what we were talking about earlier about the um the way you’re seated look at this picture up here and you can see the long tables they’re all
Interconnected and what do they call it it’s I don’t remember what they call the seating style but you’re seating with you’re sitting with other people yeah so you you might be sitting right next to somebody you don’t know yeah so this long table right here has one two three
Four five six chairs you can’t see off screen and if there is one open chair they’re G to put somebody that’s by themselves in that chair with you or you could be sitting with an entire other family and it’s it’s it’s a little weird it’s a little weird they I guess expect
You to meet people says social butterfly over here I mean I can make friends anywhere I’m just like my little brother so yeah all right now there is a show okay oh communal tables oh yeah communal tables that’s what they’re called so think picnic benches um they have a
Show they have very good desserts oh that’s a good layout there you go thanks dizzy right and keep in mind this is all indoors this is not outside and it’s just dark like you can see the moon up in the corner up here it’s behind this
Little streamyard guy um but they have a an Oompa show that goes on it looks like they’ve changed the floor a little bit I know they renovated it for yeah we haven’t been here in a long long long time but it’s a whole show and I think
The show goes on for about 30 minutes they take a break they come back and they they do more show so uh what I recommend this place yes I absolutely would it’s it’s very good um especially if you like German food um and this is if you go into the
German Pavilion it is straight back next we’ve got we’re going to move into the China Pavilion and we have never eaten at this restaurant we’ve eaten at the quick service restaurant but not this one this is called the wait for it the wait for it Nine Dragons well we’re just going to wait
For this uh thing to pop up um what kind of food they have the Nine Dragons they have I don’t know Chinese food here we go because it is in China uh I’ve heard mixed reviews about this place um if you’ve ever had a from what I understand if you’ve ever been to
A sitdown Chinese restaurant not like fast food Chinese but actual sit down Chinese um it’s very comparable to that I’ve heard mixed reviews about the quality of the food and how it tastes um but I don’t know firsthand so I cannot say one way or the other it might be
Fantastic and those might have just been snobs that that went to eat there who knows um what types of things do they have on the menu I honestly don’t know so they have lunch and dinner which are normally the same at all these restaurants yeah price-wise and menu
Wied is always the same at lunch and dinner so I mean some of that looks pretty good yeah um I’ve I’m gonna be honest I’ve never been to a sit down Chinese restaurant she has uh so she could look at Tia could look at this stuff and be
Like yeah yeah yeah yeah I’ve seen that before in a menu so what do you think I don’t know I mean that spicy honey Krispy Chicken looks pretty good I’m hungry for Chinese food if you are just joining us we are going over all of the table service
Restaurants in this episode for a four-part series at least for all the parks of all the all of the dining locations at each park today we’re talking about Epcot and we are currently in the China Pavilion and this is the Nine Dragons restaurant so one day we’re going to try
This restaurant and see how we like it foodwise and reservation or uh service wise and we know when we will not be going it will not be at 8:30 at night all right down to Norway Norway has one table service location and we have eaten
Here you ate here when we went with my family right yes right when it was that weird Okay so this yeah when it was the the small plates yes so this is acru or acru depending on how they pronounce it and this is in the Norway Pavilion it is
Directly to the as you walk in it’s directly to the right you’ll see the The Host is standing out there as soon as you look at the Pavilion um this is a character dining and it has all the princesses um I think it has well it has all the main princesses here obviously
Obviously I’m a no I don’t actually I’m gonna say all except for Anna and Elsa does it say it it doesn’t it said a royal prominade but I do have a folder over here here that has I remember Ariel being there yeah I do too um hold on a
Second uh here we go um I have my graphic up here there we go all right here’s our graphic a shoes has Cinderella Belle Jasmine Snow White um Sleeping Beauty and Ariel Aurora Aurora so those are all the princesses they have there the reason I think that
They do not have um Anna and Elsa in Norway is because there’s an Anna and Elsa meet and greet literally right next door and Disney does not overlap their character meet and greets because they’re trying to maintain the magic well because if you go eat dinner and
You meet Anna and Elsa and then you go directly over your kids’s gonna be like wait wait how do they that’s why if you notice Mickey Mouse meet and greets up in the Magic Kingdom but whenever he’s on stage the meet and greet pauses because Mickey’s got to go do his stage
Performance and then come back so if you didn’t know the more you know um Okay so we’ve eaten at U twice once was how how was that uh you were mentioning what kind of food it was when you went there the first time when it was the continuous yeah it was the small
Plates um so they would come out and they’d take your order yeah and then whenever you were done eating they’d come out and they’d say would do you want anything else you could try something else but it would be just a smaller portion and you could order
Until you were full and you were rolling out of there and they were not going to force you out um that was apparently that is the Norwegian style but they have since change that because I think they weren’t getting the turnover they needed so when the last time we went it
Was just order off the menu and they have a salad bar that that never changed with salad bar never changed and now it is family style so they bring everything to the table and apparently they have breakfast lunch and dinner so lunch and dinner 67 for adults 43 for children plus taxing Gratuity um looks Like it looks like the same style of food yeah it looks like the same stuff they had that first time we went but now it’s family style so you get a little bit of everything kind of like at the Garden Grill where they bring a little
Bit of everything and you can just kind of order what you want after that so um and and I remember the meatball the Norwegian meatballs I do remember those when we went because that was my favorite thing when it was they would come and they’ give you your food and
Then they’d come again and say what else do you want um I do remember those what’s on breakfast what never been for breakfast now when we went uh a few years ago and it was an order off the menu thing um they had normal food like steak and noodles and chicken and stuff
Like that so it wasn’t really Norwegian food and I obviously got steak breakfast is $55 for adults and 35 for children oh standard breakfast items pastries potato casserole waffles eggs yeah it’s the same so you’re paying for the characters you get the same princesses so um oh and yeah we did say character
Meeting Greek so show you the graphic but I’ll show it to you and you said you’re paying for the characters it is what it is all right well I guess that’s all of Norway let’s move on to Mexico and there are one two restaurants in Mexico right two sit down
Yes yes two sit down now I through my research I have learned which is which and I will tell you an easy way to remember let let’s start with the LA Henda de s Andel and I know I do not have the accent that sounds so FY Su are
You laughing Susie laugh at me as I say la the day San and jail and she’s sitting there going no no no it’s I can’t talk that fast so yeah all right our our friend Susie is G and her husband is Mexican so he is probably laughing harder than she
Is Mexican restaurant where white okay so this one is on the outside if you’ve ever gone to the Mexican Pavilion and there’s that teeny little bottleneck where you get through and you get back out to civilization where you know you got the staircase to the pyramid and the restaurant here and then
And then it just opens up again this is on the left side or depending on which way you’re going straight across from this is on the water side yeah this is on the water so you can see out the window here that the water is right here
So if you want to watch the fireworks get a late reservation just be aware that you may get the service we’ve had for late reservation I was about to say you sure you want to give that advice oh I guess those are the only pictures okay
Um I think this one is very very this one’s more expensive than the other one and they only serve dinner all right we’re looking at $42 to $72 $54 for carne aada and then you’ve got okay not not as expensive as I thought okay so their Entre are just 30 30 something
Dollars um but I saw I saw the 72 and I was like oh but that too and there see and it’s Seafood so okay okay so this isn’t expensive as I thought never mind okay so this is just sit down rest but it’s only for
Dinner um oh look our faces are going uh okay um we’ve never tried this one before no one day we will just to say we’ve tried it we did on the other hand try sort of we had an appetizer excuse me we had an appetizer and dessert during the 50th
Anniversary we had the big pyramid thing um and we knew we could eat that after eating ENT trce so it was so big that’s why we didn’t try any ENT trce why we were in here we just got an appetizer to share to be clear this is the San Angel in
Restaurante and this is the one that is inside of the pyramid and I told you that I was going to give you a little I could never remember which one’s which the San Angel in is inside the restaurant did you come up inside the pyramid I just did
Yes so the San Angel Inn is inside of the ins side of the pyramid the uh laas sienda de San Angel San Angel is outside the pyramid so yeah and you get to watch like the scenery in here is just fantastic so you get to watch you see all the people
Float by if you’re close to that rail yeah you get to watch watch the is it the the three caberos I don’t even know what the name of the ual ride is but but we call it the three cab arrows it’s something something featuring the three cab arrows yeah it always smells
Delicious in here F and the atmosphere is really cool it is oh there’s the three cabs q line over there right here so yeah one day we’re going to go back in here and actually eat dinner eat dinner yeah or lunch yeah and it I the the the
Menu is basically just it’s Mexican food so if you’ve been to a TexMex restaurant there you go it’s the same thing just a lot more expensive so what two burritos here at a restaurant locally is going to cost you at nine bucks here it’s going
To cost you 35 so be aware of that going in but it is Mexican food and what we had I think was tacos they’re Disney tacos they’re Disney tacos um I think we had we had the uh tadas yeah here we and they were very good don’t get me
Wrong and I really enjoyed our waiter he was nice he was I liked him so and we were only there for dessert and an appetizer and he treated us like we were there for dinner not peasants yeah so that was nice all right I guess that’s that’s all
That is all the table service restaurants at Epcot Center we say that’s all that’s a lot and I realize yeah they have the most of any part but making this list how many we have not been to but and how many we will never and how many we have been to we have
Been to one two three four five six 7 8 nine 10 we’ve been to 10 of the restaurants of the like 14 that there are 15 however many there are oh I didn’t think about those ones down there so 11 excuse me um we’re probably never going to go to
Space 2020 we’re probably never going to go to Mishu Paul’s and we’re probably never going to go to tumate but we’ll try some of the other ones like I want to try the Chinese one I want to try the I want to try the S angel in restaurant and the one outside
Just to say that we’ve been to them and tried them out okay so we’re going to does anybody have any questions comments put them in the comments below and we will make sure to look at them um does any I don’t know I don’t know what to ask no
I was gonna ask you I’m sorry I got I got confused what is your favorite sitdown restaurant that we have been to that we have been to um probably I’m looking at the list again probably she’s trying to decide which one’s her favorite table service restaurant at Epcot that we’ve tried probably via
Napole I’m trying to think of all the ones we’ve been doing and some of them we just haven’t been to in so long yeah yeah I’m gonna agree with that like I want to go back to Via napole yeah or napali depending on how you pronounce it
I’m sure um I I want to go back there like we finished eating there and I immediately said I want to come back here yeah but I feel like that’s the only one I’ve ever done that to I do really love the heat well yes but I want
To go in and try other food too um and see if it’s as good as the pizza um I also like Garden Grill like that is the other one where if we can find a reservation we’re probably just gonna go to Garden Grill because it’s really good
And it’s fun and you get to see Mickey Mouse and Chip Andale and Pluto and I would say Garden Grill is my favorite character VI napole is my favorite non character yeah I agree with that um uh Hey Mama Wanda where where did you enjoy the Garden
Grill Susie have you ever been to any of these restaurants in Epcot has she been to Epcot Susie I don’t know Susie one of these days we’re gonna have to plan a trip or you come with us all right Tia what’s your least favorite restaurant
Is that a trick question I mean it’s a question um I probably lelia even after the experience of um tuto Italia yeah I mean f was really good I did not enjoy my food at lelia at all and the food that I got was fine for the price you’re paying it should have
Been fantastic and for the price you were paying at lelia should have the service should have been fantastic um it was not in either sense of the word and we had to fight the menu and the waitress willing to do things to get Tia even something she could eat because she can’t eat
Seafood and she doesn’t really like the other stuff I’m not a steak person I don’t want to pay $50 for steak that I don’t I’m not really going to enjoy that’s wasteful so your mom says that uh the Garden Grill was her favorite her favorite of all the restaurants that are at at
Epcot so sorry to say though ma they don’t have the Strawberry Shortcake anymore dessert not when I found that out I was like thank God because that was so awful Brandon doesn’t like strawberry short no I don’t like that Strawberry Shortcake Mama does cuz it’s literally just a piece of cornbread
Sweetened cornbread with whipped cream on top it that is not oh and strawberries that a strawberry shortcake that’s sweet cornbread with whipped cream and CH strawberries on it but they don’t have that anymore what did they have last time we were there uh apple
Pie oh my God that’s so good I I wanted I wish they would have brought that out first because I would have eaten that enjoyed it sat there went ah now let’s eat but they did not and it was just your mom says oh no no more no more
Of that I bet though if you asked them if they had it I bet they would bring it out because I bet they have it for kids that want it uh maybe I mean if they had a way to make it they would probably try
To make it for you yeah I bet they would I think they still have it on the menu at um the Hoops do review yeah I mean it’s a pretty standard whatever because it’s literally just the the cornbread they bring out at Garden Grill is basically just a strawberry shortcake
Cake so yeah um well I guess that’s I guess that’s it yeah and next week we’ll do um Qui C part two cot part two quick service and snacks and all the other stuff snacks and all that other stuff yeah so there’s there’s a lot of those
And it’s going to take us another hour to get through that we definitely don’t want to do that oh hello a salute to traveling the us but mostly Disney thank you for joining us um he said that apple pie served by Mickey is my phone lock
Screen right I I was so happy when I one that I saw it that it wasn’t the Strawberry Shortcake because that’s just a cop out we don’t have anything else to make dessert but that apple pie oh like next time we go and be like could you
Bring it out first like I’m gonna ask them if they could bring it out first because when I’m at the end I’m like trying to just shovel it in he doesn’t know how to Pace himself I do obviously not but I like to eat what
I like to get what I’m paying for so I eat a lot and they don’t let you get a take box so I’m going to eat and eat and eat but I’d rather get my dessert first enjoy it sit go oh unbutton my pants a
Little bit and then then go now bring on the feast I’m that was my warm-up act but when you put it at the end you’re just like oh that looks so good it’s such a waste I’m gonna shovel it in and be miserable later so anyway anyway anyway thank you for
Joining us everyone that joined us um if you missed any of it go back start from the beginning we got some good mugs in our mug of the day and um and we talk about all of the table service restaurants one by one starting I know this can be controversial starting in
Canada and working our R to Mexico and we also did uh future world so get an idea of what they have there all available maybe to make the other half happy for the quick service we’ll go the other way meico work our way around to Canada I think that’s a good idea we’re
Gonna do that all right well I guess that’s it t yeah thanks for joining us and until next time remember no capes see I do that without looking I can’t
