The dishes at Connections Eatery are unique because they are full-size as opposed to the tasting sizes at the booths. If you’re looking for something hearty and filling, this is an excellent choice. The chicken isn’t very hot, but it’s thick and tasty. The cabbage is crisp and the pickles are the perfect finishing touch.

*NEW* Lemon-Lavender Baumkuchen with Lavender Anglaise – $6.29

This dish was fantastic and the best Baumkuchen we’ve had at EPCOT. The cake was delicate and moist while the icing was sugary and had a slight crunch to it. The hint of lavender was pleasant and the lemon tied it together nicely at the end. We would definitely come back to have this again.

*NEW* Carrot Cake Liege Waffle with Candied Pecans and Cream Cheese Icing – $5.79

Sadly the waffle is the worst part but the one we had was at least soft and we were easily able to cut it. The waffle tasted more like pecan pie than carrot cake and the topping was syrupy sweet.

If you’re looking for a margarita, skip Jardin de Fiestas and come straight here. It’s a little on the syrupy side but it’s overall very good.
