This isn’t Japan related, well… not really. David and I went to the Epcot Food & Wine Festival this past weekend, and it was a lot of fun (until we started to feel uncomfortably full).
Some of the delicacies I tried included:
Chicken Bastilla from Morocco
Escargot in Brioche from France (WAY yummy!)
Chorizo mash from Spain… not sure what this was called, but it had chorizo and potato and was good
Gelati from Italy
Green Tea Mango Slushie from China
and last but not least…
Sukiyaki Roll from Japan
The sukiyaki roll was really good. I’ve wanted to try sukiyaki for a while, but it seems to be one of those dishes, such as okonomiyaki, that seems to be hard to get outside of Japan. The sukiyaki roll at Epcot seemed to be a sushi roll with the sukiyaki beef the middle, wrapped in nori, and then wrapped with rice and fried (but not tempuraed), so it was crispy and the beef was tender. Very good, and I look forward to an actual sukiyaki experience while I’m in Japan.
Here are some photos of the day, even though I didn’t take any of the food… doh!
