Disney4me Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 The 2025 EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival has kicked off! 2025 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival The festival runs March 5th through June 2nd this year and if you are planning on trying some of the delicious food from the outdoor kitchens, you’ll want to listen up, especially if you will have the Disney Dining Plan. Did you know that you can use snack credits from the DDP at some of the festival booths? That’s right. There are select menu items that will count towards your snack credit allotment. Of course, you’ll want to make sure it is a good value to use a credit instead of purchasing the item. We’re telling you the top snacks to use your credits on at this year’s festival! EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival First up, over in Mexico at the Jardin de Fiestas booth, you’ll find one of the pricier items at the festival for $11.50. The “Giant” Tostada de Carn is made with Oaxacan tostada, barbacoa beef, guacamole, jícama, pumpkin seeds, and salsa macha. The giant tostada is covered in barbacoa beef-style meat, but to us, the meat kind of tastes more like a pot roast. This thing is seriously huge and the price is gonna reflect that. You might gawk at the price at first, but it really is just that big — and good! It’s the perfect way to get a lot out of that snack credit. Giant Tostada de Carne Over at Lan Yuan, you can grab the House-made Cheesy Crab Wontons for a snack credit. These would cost $9.75 without using the credit so it is on the higher end. These are fried wontons filled with cream cheese, celery, and imitation crab. The wontons are also drizzled with plum-chili sauce. We look forward to this Festival favorite dish each year. It is plentiful with the cheese tucked into a crispy, golden wonton wrapper, but for only 3 wontons, it is worth just using a snack credit on. Cheesy Crab Wontons Next, over at Refreshment Port, you can grab the Provence Poutine for $9. If spending $9 on fries seems ridiculous to you, you can grab these with a snack credit. The base of the French fries is seasoned with Herbes de Provence, and the batch is topped with goat brie, lavender honey, hazelnut croquant, and fresh lavender! It is both an interesting and unique option. This dish is also on our personal Best of the Fest list! Provence Poutine For $8.75, you can buy the Primavera Cacio Pepe e Gamberi at Primavera Kitchen. If you want to try this dish, we suggest a dining credit for it, however, we found this underwhelming. It needed more sauce and we thought it was just ok. Primavera Cacio Pepe e Gamberi At Beach Grub, you can grab the Seafood Bake. It is a snack credit and it is packed with shrimp, mussels, clams, andouille sausage, red potatoes, corn on the cob, persillade butter, and a white wine broth… Oh, and it comes with grilled sourdough, too! You will get a good value for your credit here! Seafood Bake The Gnocchis Provencal at Fleur de Lys is $8.95 so it is a higher priced item. The dish is made with pulled duck confit in a rosemary sauce. While this dish may not look the most appetizing, we were amazed by how much we enjoyed it. There is lots of gravy flavor with chunky mushrooms. Gnocchis Provencal At Hanami, there are two snack credit items found here for $8.50 each. The Ramen Cup is a ramen salad shaken in a cup with fresh vegetables, grilled chicken, and dashi broth with chili oil and yuzu. Ramen Cup The Steam Bun was new last year, but is back for 2025. It’s filled with vegetables and plant-based soy meat. The Steam Bun is filled with veggies and plant-based soy meat. If that sounds tasty, use a snack credit on it! 2024 Steam Bun Our biggest tip for using dining credits while at the festival is to do your research first to see what is a good price and what you’ll actually enjoy eating.
