Epcot Flower and Garden Festival 2022

Posted March 4, 2022

Just like 2021 at Epcot, they had this lovely Flower and Garden Festival. Unfortunately this time around, I was simply too full to eat around. I had enough room to maybe try a snack or two but that’s about it. I noticed that the indoor area between the British and Canadian pavilion was not open, so it felt like there were just a few less options.

Unlike 2021, it felt like there were significant more crowds as a whole everywhere. It wasn’t uncomfortable, but it did make it annoying to have to wait for some things.

Food

The only thing that I had that was different than last year was the Primavera Kitchen in the Italy pavilion.

The arancini ($14 - top left) came with fried risotto balls stuffed with braised beef and served with grape tomato salad and balsamic emulsion. The arancini was crispy and tasted good but just not worth the price.

The bomboloni ($12 - top right) came with cream filled Italian doughnut with raspberry sauce and powdered sugar. This reminded me of stuffed warm puffy doughnuts which is always going to be tasty.

The ravioli alla boscaiola ($13 - bottom) came with sweet sausage ravioli with sweet corn, spring vegetables, and cream sauce. This was probably the least favorite of the three. The ravioli was cooked to the right bite, but the sweet corn and sauces kind of made it just OK.

Final Verdict

In lieu of trying a bunch of little snacks, we ended up eating at more restaurants as a whole this trip. I’m hoping next year we will be able to try more of these booth snacks.
