Bunny Chow – Epcot 2011 Food & Wine Festival

Okay, the name Bunny Chow drew me in. Purina (pet food company) actually makes a product for rabbits that is called bunny chow. So when I saw the name Bunny Chow, I knew I had to sample this dish. I try not to research food before I try it. Too often I am predisposed to

Fisherman’s Pie – Epcot 2011 Food & Wine Festival

Last year, 2010, we thought the Fisherman’s Pie was not as good as 2009. It was still a good dish but the flavors were more muted. The seafood flavors were not as distinct. Plus although it was really hot – the mashed potatoes were not as “firm” as I expected. We were anxious to try
