2024 Booth

And if you’re planning your own tasty trip “around the world” during the 2024 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival, we recommend having a plan in place for everything you’d like to try at the Festival’s Marketplace Food Booths. That’s why we’re reviewing every single Food Booth and trying every menu item for you, and we hope you’re ready to join us at the Brazil Booth to see if it should earn a spot on your list!

Menu

The menu at the Brazil Booth is short but sweet. Well… it’s pretty sweet if pork belly and cheese bread sound as good to you as they do to us!

2024 Menu

That’s right! Brazil is once again delivering its famous Pão de Queijo (Brazilian cheese bread) to the Festival! It’s joined on the menu by Feijoada, a popular returning Pork Belly dish.

These dishes are joined by two drinks: the Frozen Caipirinha with Cachaça and Xingu Black Beer. These sips are also returning items, which begs the question…

Can the Brazil Booth rest on its laurels with a menu entirely based on returning items? Let’s find out!

We’re digging first into the Feijoada. This savory dish features pork belly over black beans with Brazil nut pesto, and BEN’S ORIGINAL Long Grain White Rice, and it’s available for $6.50.

All truths told, the Feijoada has a history of mixed reviews. For instance, in 2022, it was one of the most flavorful dishes we tried at the Festival. In 2023, we couldn’t wait to try it again, but, alas…the pork belly was dry and a bit tough. Simply put, it didn’t deliver. This year has redeemed this dish, though. It’s so flavorful, thanks to the chimichurri sauce, and the black beans were seasoned perfectly. The rice is perfectly cooked. The pork belly has a hint of spicy heat, but it’s not overwhelming.

The Pão de Queijo (which, by the way, is one of the eligible items for those who plan to partake in Emile’s Fromage Montage Cheese Crawl) typically earns rave reviews. It’s up for grabs for $5.

Pão de Queijo: Brazilian cheese bread

After all, what could go wrong with Brazilian cheese bread when it’s served warm and packed with cheese? As always, the cheese bread did not disappoint. It’s super chewy, cheesy, and just the right amount of greasy. Everything about this is SO good, and we’ll continue to order this year after year as long as it’s available.

Drinks

You can wash down either dish (or both) with a Frozen Caipirinha with Cachaça once again this year!

This frozen refresher is consistently a hit, especially on an inevitably hot day at the Festival. If you love the tart burst of lime that comes from a traditional margarita, give this Brazilian drink a try! You can raise a glass for $12.

You can also opt for Xingu Black Beer for 6 ounces for $5.75 or 12 ounces for $9.75. 

OVERALL

Oh, Brazil booth, how do we love you? Let us count the ways. This booth was a true winner for us this year, and we’re happy that the Feijoada has been returned to its former glory. Of course, we’ll always come here for the cheesy bread, but this is one booth you don’t want to skip at the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival.
