Main Street Magic - A Walt Disney World Podcast 755: Music, Meals & Magic: Our EPCOT Dining Reviews & Garden Rocks Trip Recap
We’re recapping an unforgettable weekend filled with great food, live music, and plenty of Disney magic! We stayed at Disney’s Pop Century Resort, giving our thoughts on the resort’s location, amenities, transportation, and how it stacks up against other Value Resorts.
Then, we dive into our EPCOT dining experiences, including reviews of Nine Dragons in the China Pavilion and Spice Road Table in Morocco, both paired with Garden Rocks Concert Series dining packages. Was the cost worth it for guaranteed seating? And what were our standout dishes? We break it all down, from Sichuan Shui Zhu Beef and Smoked Duck Fried Rice to Spicy Shrimp and Pomegranate-Chili Crispy Cauliflower.
Next, we take a break at Bar Riva at Disney’s Riviera Resort, a perfect midday or post-park spot. We’ll talk about the Signature Burger, Pepperoni Pizza, and Mediterranean Mint Lemonade, plus why we think this might be a hidden gem.
Finally, we wrap up with our experience seeing Blue October live at EPCOT, sharing tips on getting the best Garden Rocks seats, and reflecting on our favorite moments from the trip. What was our best meal? Would we do anything differently? Tune in to find out!
