(04:53):
Italy who I'll be honest, isjust perpetually a
disappointment at thesefestivals Italy should be able
to do so much better than theydo.
Kelli (05:09):
I was very disappointed.
Chris (05:10):
Yeah, I've got nothing
there. They they are serving an
arancini which is a sweetsausage fried risotto ball,
Langostini which is a lobsterravioli and a Bumbuloni, which
is a cream filled Italian donutand raspberry sauce with
powdered sugar. I actually didchoose that. I was going just by
reading it. I was going to gowith the sweet sausage Rosetta
(05:32):
ball. And then I saw a pictureof it and I'm like, man, it was
just gonna disappoint me again.
But those little donut balls,I'm gonna give them a shot. They
looked almost
Kelli (05:42):
exactly what Morocco had
in over the holidays. Sure, and
I was like, again, I thoughtItaly could do better. I didn't
even pick any of theirbeverages, right. They have a
lot of wines. proseccos. Moscatosangrias. Yeah,
Chris (05:56):
but others. So here's the
thing. I'm doing a virtual tour.
I really haven't had any of thatyet. So I did go with the
amoretto billini, which iswhite. That was
Unknown (06:05):
ready. Yeah, that was
pretty good. Okay.
Chris (06:09):
Okay, of course you will.
Okay, next, the Americanadventure. The artists table. I
thought they did a really goodjob here. They're offering a
Beef Wellington, a pan searedscallop with chorizo and the
artists palette cookie. They gotsomething there in the
beverages, though. I think we'reboth gonna go for
Kelli (06:26):
I'm going to go for the
symphony and chocolate flight,
which is Mozart cream, thecourse paired with sipping
chocolate. So they've got thesipping chocolate flight and non
alcoholic version, which iswhite milk and dark chocolate.
You just drink? Oh, yes, I mean,but I'm gonna have the symphony
and chocolate which adds in yourcream liqueur. Yeah,
Chris (06:49):
and each cream liqueur
matches three different cream
liquid
Kelli (06:52):
love.
Chris (06:53):
I've got but I've got
literally the non alcoholic and
the alcoholic version selected,both of them just due to
alcohol. And I'm gonna have thatwith the Beef Wellington, which
comes with a mushroom duxelle Idon't know if I'm saying that
right procuitto and a puffpastry with a red wine Demi
glaze. You serve
Kelli (07:11):
fennel cream.

They've got some called stonegarden, which is a red bean
mousse with chocolate rocks.
That sounds cool. A sushidoughnut, which is a doughnut
(07:33):

It was pretty It was reallygorgeous. It was gorgeous. And
then a vegetable filled spinachGiza with tofu. And then I've
got some Haiku draft lager, andsake is available as beverages.
I didn't
Kelli (07:50):
have anything in Japan. I
actually have two things in
Japan. So first of all thatstone garden that you just you
know, it's meant to look like aZen Garden, you know whether
sand Zen gardens and so it comeslooking like that. Like they
give you a little flat ball thatlooks like a Zen like a bowl of
sand. That's their rice.
Chris (08:09):
cracker pebbles.
Kelli (08:10):
No, no, no, no, no,
that's the that's the red bean
mousse. With like a whitetopping. It looks like the sand.
Okay, but underneath that's thered bean mousse. Then they give
you a little plastic cup withthe chocolate rocks and the rice
cracker pebbles and you put themin there and like make your own
little zen sand garden and theneat it. That is totes adorbs and
(08:35):
I want to do that so bad.
Chris (08:37):
It's like an activity.
Kelli (08:39):
Artist activity, which is
the whole point. I think that
totes adorbs and I want it. I'malso going to have the pink snow
beverage which is Saki peachsnobs. Cranberry juice, kalpa
code dusted with snowflakeconfetti.
Chris (08:53):
Sounds great.
Kelli (08:54):
I mean, that is just a
catastrophe. But what I will say
about the Saki in thetraditional personalized wooden
cup, you sort of brushed overthat. It's a really pretty
wooden cup that they write yourname on in Japanese. Oh, that's
nice. It's personalized. It's apersonalized wooden cup. With
(09:15):
your name and Japanese totallyrushed this booth decided I'm so
excited about it.
Chris (09:22):

you and Epcot they do call it
the mouse kutchi Why wouldn'tyou
Kelli (10:28):
think they should, but
the orange cake with a cinnamon
chocolate mousse actuallygorgeous. This was a beautiful
little dessert. And it looked tome to be reminiscent of orange
bird. And I gotta say, I reallybought into the bird I bought
into the Orange bird over theholidays, um, for him. And so
this reminded me a little bit ofthat and so I thought that would
be good. But I am for orange andchocolate,

yes. For that combo. So I
saw that and I was like, I'm
