How... fun. :D

Anyone know what's at the Rose Garden? I still think Kitchen Karnivale was one of the best all time F/W annual decisions of Disney. :)

those numbers sound like alot but then you look at the size of the servings :lol: . i enjoy the food an wine festival but it was really expensive if you want to actually get full. i wish they offered the food in bigger sizes instead of just a sample size.

Does anyone know if Becks Oktoberfest is back on tap in Germany? Its a seasonal / special beer... and I hope they have it avail. during food & wine.

Never been to this event but it will be ending in the middle of our trip this November. Hope it is worth the price, i usualy have to have a seperate food budget when i take these trips so that I can get plane tickets and still stuff my face, gonna need a bigger one this time around.
