Welcome to EPCOT’s most colorful event — the 2022 Festival of the Arts!
If you’re looking to try the BEST dishes from the 2022 Festival of the Arts, we’ve got you covered! And now we’ve compiled a list of the BEST dish from every booth — right here!
The Artist’s Table
The Artist’s Table in the American Adventure pavilion is a returning booth with a favorite dish that once again made our Best of the Fest List. The Beef Wellington is made with Mushroom Duxelle, Prosciutto, and Puff Pastry with Red Wine Demi-Glace and Baby Vegetables for $8.50.
Once again, we loved how the beef was cooked, and it has a nice crust that adds a crunch and more flavor. Don’t skip this dish if it sounds good to you!

The Craftsman’s Courtyard
At the Craftsman’s Courtyard, a new booth for the Festival of the Arts, the name of the game is cast iron seafood, and it made our list of one of the best booths at the fest! The Cast Iron-roasted P.E.I. Mussels, made with sautéed tomatoes, garlic, and fresh herbs for $7.50, was one of our favorite dishes of the fest!
You get quite a few mussels for the price, and they had a great flavor of garlic and smokiness. We thought the tomatoes and herbs also added flavor that worked well!

Deco Delights
Ready for some chocolate? At Deco Delights, we loved the Valrhona Chocolate, made with dark chocolate mousse, a chocolate brownie, and cassis mousse for $5. It’s pretty, right?
The brownie is moist and fudge-y, topped with a purple gloss. Combined with the dark chocolate ice cream, it’s a nice balance of sweet and bitter. Plus the raspberry sauce adds another element to all the chocolate flavors!
Here’s our review of Deco Delights!
The Deconstructed Dish
The Deconstructed Dish is where you’ll find, well, deconstructed dishes, and the standout of this booth is the Deconstructed Key Lime Pie, made with flexible key lime curd, a “Key lime” mousse, graham cracker cake, and meringues, for $4.75.
This dessert is so refreshing! The key lime mousse is perfectly tart, and we loved it combined with the graham cracker cake.

Donut Box
The Donut Box has an all-new menu for the 2022 Festival of the Arts, and the Vanilla Donut, made with strawberry sugar, strawberry ice cream, fresh strawberries, and strawberry gele is a standout for $5.50. This is one of the dishes on the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine.
This donut tastes a lot like a pound cake, and the glaze was super tasty. We loved the added fixings and the creamy strawberry ice cream too!
Here’s our review of the Donut Box!
El Artista Hambriento
El Artista Hambriento in the Mexico pavilion is one of our favorite booths at the 2022 Festival of the Arts, and it was hard to choose a favorite dish! We settled on the Huarache Verde, but the Carne Asada is also incredible. The Huarache Verde is made with cilantro huarache with cochinita pibil, fresh pineapple, and pickled onion for $7.50.
We loved everything about this dish! The pineapple and pickled onion add a burst of flavor to the moist pork, and everything about it is delicious.

Goshiki
At Goshiki in the Japan pavilion, the new dish Chicken Kushiage comes with breaded and fried chicken with yum yum sauce and vegetables for $8.50. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the yum yum sauce was sweet and spicy.
The chicken pieces are boneless, which makes it easy to share bites with other people. We really enjoyed this new dish, so you might want to give it a try!
Here’s our full review of Goshiki!
Gourmet Landscapes
At Gourmet Landscapes in the Canada pavilion, the returning Wild Mushroom Risotto is just as delicious as ever! It’s made with aged parmesan, truffle shavings, and a Zinfandel reduction for $9.25.
This dish has made it onto our Best of the Fest List again, and this year we’re happy to report it’s still delivering lots of mushrooms, nutty cheese, and truffle flavor.

L’Art de la Cuisine Francaise
If we make our way to the France pavilion for L’Art de la Cuisine Francaise, we can grab the tried-and-true Crème de Brie en Petit Pain, which is warm creamy brie in a house-made bread bowl for $8.50. It’s hard to go wrong with melty, creamy cheese, and this booth doesn’t disappoint.
It’s served warm, and the brie is the perfect texture. If you love cheese, you HAVE to give it a try.
Here’s our review of L’Art de la Cuisine Francaise!
L’Arte de Mangiare
The new Ravioli Alla Boscaiola dish from L’Arte de Mangiare in the Italy pavilion finally redeemed this booth after the bland dishes of the past. The new dish is made with sweet sausage ravioli, served with mushrooms, caramelized onions, and a creamy Parmesan sauce for $13.
This ravioli dish comes with mushrooms inside some of the sausage and lots of big mushrooms on top. We were so impressed by this dish it made our Best of the Fest List!

The Painted Panda
The Char Siu Pork Bun is a returning dish to The Painted Panda, and it’s still a must-try. This dish is made with pork served with sauce on a bao bun for $8.50.
Our keyword for this dish is “glorious.” We loved the tender pork and the sweetness from the bao bun and the sauce. We also got three pieces of pork inside the bun, which is a great portion size!

Pastoral Palate
At Pastoral Palate in the Germany pavilion, the Opera Cake has returned and it’s just as delicious as it was last year. It’s made with almond joconde, coffee buttercream, and chocolate ganache for $4.75.
We love everything about this cake, and the texture of the chocolate on the bottom is the perfect touch. If you’re craving something sweet, this is a great option.
Here’s our review of Pastoral Palate!
Pop Eats
If you didn’t visit Pop Eats to try and snag the popular Figment popcorn bucket (which has since sold out), you might have tried the Tomato Soup with Bacon, Apple, and Brie Grilled Cheese for $6.25! The soup is served in an Andy Warhol-inspired can, along with the grilled cheese on the side.
We LOVED this grilled cheese! The combination of the brie, bacon, and apple flavors and textures were amazing. Even the creamy tomato soup was good! Don’t be sad that you can’t get the Figment popcorn bucket if you can still eat this dish.

Tangierine Cafe
The Carrots Three Ways dish is our favorite from Tangierine Cafe! It’s one of the only two exclusively plant-based dishes at the fest, and it’s a delicious option for $4.25. This dish is made with berbere-spiced grilled carrots, pickled carrots, and carrot ginger purée. We thought this dish was flavorful and spicy and cooked really well.
We really enjoyed the carrot ginger puree especially, even though it kind of reminded us of grown-up baby food. In a good way!
Here’s our review of Tangierine Cafe!
Vibrante & Vivido: Encanto Cocina
This year, Vibrante & Vivido draws inspiration from Disney’s recent animated movie, Encanto, and it made our list as one of the best booths at the festival! One of our favorite dishes is the House-made Chorizo and Potato Empanada for $6.50. This empanada is made with house-made chorizo, potato, Tumeric aïoli, and annatto aïoli, and it’s also on the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine.
Not only is this dish a HUGE portion, but it also comes with a LOT of potatoes. It’s also really spicy (in a good way), and the aïoli flavors go deliciously with everything else.
Here’s our review of Vibrante & Vivido!
Refreshment Outpost
At Refreshment Outpost, one of the standout items was the Blue Raspberry Blonde Ale for $10.75. We thought it was sweet (but not too sweet), and it mostly tasted like a light beer with raspberry syrup mixed in.
As you can see, this beer is actually greener than it is blue, but we thought it was delicious! Plus, it’s really pretty for photos.

Refreshment Port
Refreshment Port is one of the spots where you’ll find the signature Artist Palette Jumbo Chocolate Chip Cookie for $5.50! This treat comes with a brush and three dollops of colorful icing, so you can “paint” your cookie!
Both adults AND kids love this special treat, so make sure to visit Refreshment Port to give it a try!
