France has had a booth at the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival since its inception in 1996. This year, their booth has several “new” items that we actually saw earlier this year at the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. But it’s still worth taking a look at these items, and picking up a slushy to battle the heat!
UPDATE: On September 2nd, the France Marketplace replaced the goat cheese tart with the escargot in puff pastry, also new to this year’s festival. In the event the tart returns, we’ve included reviews of both items.
