It was our first time visiting the Canada Pavilion. We were actually more impressed with the outdoor kitchen menu items at Northern Bloom during the Flower & Garden Festival. Their menu was the only one that we could both agree on. I had the Seared Scallops that had this tasty bacon vinaigrette sauce. It all mixed together well with the fresh tri-color potatoes and green beans. My husband had the Beef Tenderloin Tips that had a mushroom sauce that he really liked. The beef was tender, and totally satisfied my meat & potatoes guy. I kind of wish we had tried the Chocolate Maple Whisky Cake that everyone loves so much.
Now, it has left us curious about the food at Le Cellier Steakhouse and the Refreshment Port. These may be good options to explore next time we're at EPCOT. The menu description of the Beef Bourguignon Poutine looks amazing. I have this feeling it's the same mushroom sauce that my husband had at Northern Bloom. Do they still use Boursin cheese? I hope so. I can't get enough of it on my grilled sandwiches.
As for the rest of the pavilion... who cares? There's a 360 vision movie of Canada Far & Wide. I didn't see it. I was more interested in the...

Read moreThe Canada Pavilion in EPCOT is an interesting one. It has an absolutely fabulous restaurant, with a really keen nature-ish walkway behind the building (along with a movie), but doesn't really have a proper quick-service restaurant, a good bar, or even an adequate gift shop. The greenery is lovely and is definitely worth a few pictures, and the steakhouse is absolutely fantastic (if you have the cash), but one of my favorite things about EPCOT is the shopping and the snacking between 'countries.' Outside, you can get a beer and a maybe some popcorn, but...
