Based on reviews and my own taste preferences it's a tossup between the General Tso’s Chicken Shumai and the House-Made Chorizo and Potato Empanada as entrees then between Crispy Almond Phyllo Pockets and the Deconstructed Key Lime Pie for desert.
I really enjoyed the video! I loved when you did it as a live stream and I think this may be even better. All the info and entertainment without the chaos of a live stream. Please keep doing them!
I love your honesty!! Seriously, some food reviewers would say a dog turd tasted fantastic because it was from a Disney festival. We NEED the truth especially for the cost. Thanks!
I really like this. I like seeing the reactions instead of just the reviews later. It's very amusing to see your caustic thoughts about some of the foods.
Y'all are my go-to guide for this festival. The fact that y'all aren't giving glowing reviews of everything and aren't afraid to say something is just okay or not worth the price... I feel like it's much more honest. While I'm an out of state passholder, I do live in a part of the country where we have a decent selection of good restaurants, so of course I don't want to waste my time with mediocre offerings I could pretty much get anywhere and would rather focus on the truly unique and worthy offerings while I'm at WDW.
As someone whose only experience with Disney seasonal food booths is the holiday festival at DCA, I’m impressed by the detail! I love all of Disney’s little rotating food options but seeing things like the way the key lime pie was set up or how they bother to make the can with the little lid sitting on the side even though it’s a fake can and doesn’t need the lid. That’s cute. I am loving the video food reviews, by the way! They’re not the fanciest or too overly produced and I love that. Sometimes I read y’all’s reviews and it comes off kind of “we had the thing, here’s the listed ingredients and price, it was a thing we ate, get it if you like the thing.” It’s nice to see the gut reaction and a more in-action idea of things like how much you get or what it looks like in a hand.
My favorite part of the video was the guy at 6:00 dumping his coffee into the planter behind Tom and looking up right into the camera lens and taking a walk of shame.
Thank you so much for doing this video! I enjoy seeing your reactions and you trying the food more than reading about it on the website! Please do these more often! This was great
Tom; First and Foremost…. Thank you for your honesty! The fact that you call it like it is… and you don’t hold back. Thanks for this, “YES” please do these for upcoming festivals; as a viewer we get the good, bad and the ugly! Thanks again, great JOB!
Oh I loved this! I couldn't watch a live stream that day because of meetings, but catching up a day or 2 later was great, and having edited out all the walking about (which really isn't that interesting -- I'm always like -- just bring me the food!) was even better. Totally loved it and would watch every time. I'll actually be there for the opening of Flower and Garden....so I won't be able to pre-watch, but maybe I'll bump into Tom again during the festival. :)
I like the extra 'game element'. Wait until Tom takes a bite and study his face. Freeze-frame. Everyone has to guess whether it is going to be a good verdict or bad, extra points if you predict a 'this is solid' or 'this is good, I guess'. Joking aside, this was a great thing to do. I didn't think I watch the whole program but watched it all. Overall, there didn't seem to be a single dish I would go out of my way for but that just about sums up Festival food. I'm just glad there were some good experiences there. I'm off to grill a carrot, part of my newly conceived 'deconstructed carrot cake'....
This was great, love the review of new foods. Maybe throw in 1 or 2 old favorites so those of us who don't get there but every few years have some tips.
Great job Tom and all the team at WDWNT! Very enjoyable and informative reviews. Definitely make this a must-do every festival. Reading from "The Book of Festival".......hilarious!!!
We are enjoying this video! Tom is cracking us up!! I was born in Morocco. I am Berber and let me tell you, what you ate at the Morocco pavilion supposed to be Berber? Never heard of it! Lol and we just loved all your reviews! 😂😂😂👍🏻❤️❤️ and Berber bread is cushiony and never hollow like that.
Wow so eerie, I’m just watching this video now and you made a Meatloaf reference 2 days before he passed. Crazy! Oh and can you PLEASE do this for Flower & Garden??? Will be going and want to see everything with your much appreciated very honest reviews!
What time do the booths stop serving food? Does anyone know? We have reservations somewhere at 4pm and I was wondering if I could swing by a booth or two after dinner for dessert...but, afraid they close at 5 or something. I can't find the info anywhere. lol :D
You know i am a huge fan of WDWNT livestreams (bring ‘em back!!!) but I have to say for festival food review purposes i thought you-all did an awesome job with this and def prefer this to the food festival livestreams (but bring livestreams back!). :-) Thanks for doing this!!!
Wadda ya know! Onion textures is my favorite food! 🤪 Also loved this and love the channel. Your review is exactly how mine would be. Much more trust worthy coming from someone not being pretentious about the onion textures. Edit: the lobster mouse. Yall had me laughing so hard.
That was a great video...but as an Italian I am deeply offended by the fact Disney managed to ruin one of the most simple, cheap and delicious cuisines in the world. They should be able to make cost effective food which is also really tasty.
I like that you review just about every damn thing at the Festival - But was it just new items, can you throw in some old favorites in there, no Beef Wellington? Tom’s straight forward style is fine, but I would love for someone to give the boy a Red Bull or a latte beforehand to pep him up a bit 🤷🏼♀️ And maybe recap what booth / area you are reviewing after eating in case we miss it in beginning. 😁
At least you get to save the receipts for your taxes! LOL..that's a bunch $$$ when you add it up. I kept wondering, do you throw away the food after the taste test? Or do the other ppl w/you eat it? Some of this has been on other vloggers sites and they liked some that you didn't. So, I guess it just depends on taste. You just don't get excited about food, do you? LOL. Thank you for this.
@@WDWNT the review was good enough, I didn’t mind. I absolutely love your honesty. Other reviewers just say they like everything which isn’t very helpful. Will be there for 15 days in Feb.!
Cute plastic presentation, but isn't that contributing to more waste. I think the plastic lid is a nice touch, but it does add to waste. I wonder if the lid works on the container to at least seal it.
Are you kidding me with that Director's cup sunday for $18.99...... That is highway robbery..... You could go to the grocery store and buy 3 1/2 gallon ice cream for that $18.99...... And people buy this thing????? OMG....... Disney likes to rip people off and people keep saying more more more......... Disney gives the guest more crazy priced items..... More more more...... $18.99 go jump in one of your lakes Disney........
It’s appalling to me that with all the concern about coronavirus, Disney would allow a situation where park patrons are in close proximity just to get a popcorn bucket. They have the stock so why aren’t they dispersing the sales at several booths to discourage close contact and long lines.
Whatever you think about covid, you should be able to agree that Disney could easily have them available in multiple locations so people don't have to wait for 7 hours to get one.
Every attraction line was jammed as it use to be before covid and it was crazy busy in Magic Kingdom during the day Tuesday. I think Disney has given up crowd spacing for good
Disney Corp understands the entire breadth and depth of Italian cuisine to be: 1. Remove from box 2. Microwave on low for 90 seconds 3. Turn contents of plastic container 4. Microwave on high for 60 seconds 5. Serve with spork
Which food or drink are you most looking forward to trying?
The ajiaco
The deconstructed Key Lime Pie !
Crispy Almond Pockets from Morocco
white chocolate pomagranate and the apple brie sandwich w the tomato soup
Based on reviews and my own taste preferences it's a tossup between the General Tso’s Chicken Shumai and the House-Made Chorizo and Potato Empanada as entrees then between Crispy Almond Phyllo Pockets and the Deconstructed Key Lime Pie for desert.
I love this please keep doing them for all the Festivals.
Wow. Please do this for flower and garden!! I found it to be helpful and entertaining
We will!
I really enjoyed the video! I loved when you did it as a live stream and I think this may be even better. All the info and entertainment without the chaos of a live stream. Please keep doing them!
Yeah, I think we like this better too
I'd love to see this for future festivals!
I love your honesty!! Seriously, some food reviewers would say a dog turd tasted fantastic because it was from a Disney festival. We NEED the truth especially for the cost. Thanks!
I really like this. I like seeing the reactions instead of just the reviews later. It's very amusing to see your caustic thoughts about some of the foods.
I like your food review style. You tell it like it is without trying to be hoity toity.
I enjoyed the readings from "The Book of Festival". This would be great to see for all the festivals.
These types of videos are way better than the live stream. I’m so glad we are getting these review videos from WDWNT now. More of this please
I agree. Doing the live stream was extremely difficult and time consuming. This format is easier and better for all of us.
Y'all are my go-to guide for this festival. The fact that y'all aren't giving glowing reviews of everything and aren't afraid to say something is just okay or not worth the price... I feel like it's much more honest.
While I'm an out of state passholder, I do live in a part of the country where we have a decent selection of good restaurants, so of course I don't want to waste my time with mediocre offerings I could pretty much get anywhere and would rather focus on the truly unique and worthy offerings while I'm at WDW.
Quite possibly one of Tom's funniest videos, yet. I love this channel, keep it up!
Glad you enjoy it!
I can't believe how mesmerized I am by watching Tom eat all of these dishes! Big fan!
I love Toms food reviews! I hope you do the same for flower and garden.
Of course!
I love this way of Reviewing the Festivals Foods! Fantastic! Always keeps me looking forward to all the food at Epcot!
I love this. It should be done every festival.
Great Job
I would love to see this for every festival! Thanks Tom and everyone who make things like this happen.

Tremendous video. Loved every second of it. The look on Tom's face after that first bite of grilled carrots was worth the price of admission.
Loved this - Tom you give nothing away in your expression- we wait with breath held for your review. 😂
Definitely do this for every single festival, in-depth like this
Yes please do this for all of the festivals.
Good job. A "pull no punches" honest review of the goods available at the festival. Funny and informative. I love your sense of humor...
My favorite part of the video was the guy at 6:00 dumping his coffee into the planter behind Tom and looking up right into the camera lens and taking a walk of shame.
That funnel cake was surprisingly delicious! Great reviews Tom!
I love this! I am so glad that this was made. Thank you!
This was great! Would love to see maybe your top three or five overall at the end. Favorite quote had to be “I think it’s delicious???”
I’d say the Inside Out Donut, the Almond Phyllo, and the Empanada
Thanks for the great reviews, it’s always fun to see footage of you guys out in the parks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
That’s the best food festival review I’ve ever seen! Great job! Please keep doing these!
Loved it and would love to see a segment exactly like this one for all of the festivals.
Excellent Tom and Team!
burning cup of syrup... I felt that.
Love the honesty in the food reviews!
Thank you so much for doing this video! I enjoy seeing your reactions and you trying the food more than reading about it on the website!
Please do these more often! This was great
I moved away from Orlando a couple years ago and miss the festivals. This video was awesome. Made me homesick but also made me feel like I was there
Wow i really need a "Useless Popcorn Bucket" for my granddaughter for when we go to WDW on her birthday. Keep up the good work. Thanks
I just watched news today and had to check it out! I LOVE this! I vote for more!
You made the Bavarian creme outside in donut the item I'd have to try.
Wow what a informative helpful video!
Tom; First and Foremost…. Thank you for your honesty! The fact that you call it like it is… and you don’t hold back. Thanks for this, “YES” please do these for upcoming festivals; as a viewer we get the good, bad and the ugly! Thanks again, great JOB!

I'll actually be there for the opening of Flower and Garden....so I won't be able to pre-watch, but maybe I'll bump into Tom again during the festival. :)
This was great! I took notes for my trip next weekend so I'm ready to rock. Thanks!
Love it, please keep doing this type of review for all of the festivals.
Excellent. Keep doing these for all festivals!
Love your honesty- comical! Very helpful as well! Thanks!
Glad you started doing videos on these since you review every festival anyways!
I really appreciate that you eat like a civilized person
This is the power of Tom. Other channels will simply pick a small selection.
Interesting food items. I think I'd like to try the tomato soup and grilled cheese, apple, and bacon sandwich if I wasn't so ill right now.
My daughter just came back today - she loved the deconstructed Key Lime Pie
The desserts look great to me!
A reference to The Continental? Very nice deep cut, my little wild eyed doe.
"If this soup was constructed, I'd be eating it already."
I like the extra 'game element'. Wait until Tom takes a bite and study his face. Freeze-frame. Everyone has to guess whether it is going to be a good verdict or bad, extra points if you predict a 'this is solid' or 'this is good, I guess'.

Great show, love seeing all available food items,. Hope you do it again for flower and garden.
This was very helpful. I would love to see more of these
Just great! More of this type of content!
I really enjoy this. I felt like you gave a honest opinion and I saw new things that other bloggers didn’t show.
Glad you enjoyed!
get the figment hot dog tom!!!
Great job Tom and all the team at WDWNT! Very enjoyable and informative reviews. Definitely make this a must-do every festival. Reading from "The Book of Festival".......hilarious!!!
Yes, do it with every fest!
We are enjoying this video! Tom is cracking us up!! I was born in Morocco. I am Berber and let me tell you, what you ate at the Morocco pavilion supposed to be Berber? Never heard of it! Lol and we just loved all your reviews! 😂😂😂👍🏻❤️❤️ and Berber bread is cushiony and never hollow like that.
Question: Does the UK Pavilion not have a festival booth? Maybe I missed it in the video.
Wow so eerie, I’m just watching this video now and you made a Meatloaf reference 2 days before he passed. Crazy! Oh and can you PLEASE do this for Flower & Garden??? Will be going and want to see everything with your much appreciated very honest reviews!
I will be going next month right before the last weekend. I plan to try at least one thing from each booth.
What time do the booths stop serving food? Does anyone know? We have reservations somewhere at 4pm and I was wondering if I could swing by a booth or two after dinner for dessert...but, afraid they close at 5 or something. I can't find the info anywhere. lol :D
Awesome video. Prefer this method to the live stream format.
This was great!
You know i am a huge fan of WDWNT livestreams (bring ‘em back!!!) but I have to say for festival food review purposes i thought you-all did an awesome job with this and def prefer this to the food festival livestreams (but bring livestreams back!). :-) Thanks for doing this!!!
I think we all agree. It's extremely difficult to keep a live stream interesting for 5-8 hours.
Are the figment popcorn buckets going to be sold till end of the 50th or stop after the art ahow
Not sure
Tom really enjoys attending FArts.
Is that Molly McCormack from AllEars at 29:20?!? Wouldn't be awesome if we had a collab?
It may be. The first day of a festival always features a lot of bloggers, vloggers, etc.
Wadda ya know! Onion textures is my favorite food! 🤪
Also loved this and love the channel. Your review is exactly how mine would be. Much more trust worthy coming from someone not being pretentious about the onion textures. Edit: the lobster mouse. Yall had me laughing so hard.
Enjoyed it.
Impressed that you did this. Thank you! Out of curiosity… you sample each item. What do you do with the rest of the food after filming?
We have a number of people with us, and we let them try it.
This is great
Best coverage!
Thanks so much!
1:01:27 "Bone Marrow Snow" sounds like the title of the next Quentin Tarantino movie.
I appreciate your comments and opinions!
Quality content
i just want to know witchout going back and doing the math how much this cost to do in one day lol. great video, you guys do a great job
Tom out and about!! Nice review- once upon a time I loved EPCOT but not anymore.
Love it! Keep everything the same
That was a great video...but as an Italian I am deeply offended by the fact Disney managed to ruin one of the most simple, cheap and delicious cuisines in the world. They should be able to make cost effective food which is also really tasty.
You can read his face like a book 😂😂😂
I like that you review just about every damn thing at the Festival - But was it just new items, can you throw in some old favorites in there, no Beef Wellington? Tom’s straight forward style is fine, but I would love for someone to give the boy a Red Bull or a latte beforehand to pep him up a bit 🤷🏼♀️ And maybe recap what booth / area you are reviewing after eating in case we miss it in beginning. 😁
We don’t like to waste food, so we only did the new as we have photos and reviews of the old items at WDWNT.com. I also will not drink Red Bull lol
At least you get to save the receipts for your taxes! LOL..that's a bunch $$$ when you add it up. I kept wondering, do you throw away the food after the taste test? Or do the other ppl w/you eat it? Some of this has been on other vloggers sites and they liked some that you didn't. So, I guess it just depends on taste. You just don't get excited about food, do you? LOL. Thank you for this.
We generally have a group of people who also try it. We occasionally disagree, but food is subjective.
Why was the video washed out at the beginning? Rest of the video looks great, just that first part looked super bright 😂
We had to record on a different camera, they hadn’t arrived with the other one yet and the food wasn’t going to last lol
@@WDWNT the review was good enough, I didn’t mind. I absolutely love your honesty. Other reviewers just say they like everything which isn’t very helpful. Will be there for 15 days in Feb.!
That’s not cheese curd, it’s gnocchi in the poutine
Yes I really enjoyed the video!! Thank you for your reviews
Yup, the review on the site is correct, but that’s how bad the gnocchi was lol
Tom was correct...*sigh*...R.I.P. Meatloaf
Cute plastic presentation, but isn't that contributing to more waste. I think the plastic lid is a nice touch, but it does add to waste. I wonder if the lid works on the container to at least seal it.
you smear the bone marrow on the crostini btw
It wasn’t going to add flavor to the marrow lol
It doesn't taste like the countryside 😆
Are you kidding me with that Director's cup sunday for $18.99...... That is highway robbery..... You could go to the grocery store and buy 3 1/2 gallon ice cream for that $18.99......

Agree with you 100 percent! Italy is the WORST! wish they would learn and do better

Useless Popcorn Bucket!!!
