“From Food & Wine to Kitchen Kabaret!”

This week on **Remy’s Roundtable**, we’re taking a delicious trip around EPCOT with a full review of the **2026 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival**! Mike’s Munchies takes us around World Showcase as we sample dishes and drinks from China, Mexico, Germany, Spain, Belgium, Japan, France, Hawaii, and more—including a pumpkin pie funnel cake for dessert. With more than **$250 spent on festival food and drinks**, Mike gives the event an overall rating of **4.52**! Then, it’s time for the **Latest Theme Park Updates**, covering everything from *Toy Story 5* and the new Lily Pad character to changes at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, Expedition Everest, upcoming EPCOT festivals, Universal’s *Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift* coaster testing, Joey Fatone’s new CityWalk hot dog stand, and Disney+’s latest clarification regarding advertisements. For this week’s **Ride of the Week**, we travel back in time to EPCOT to revisit the extinct **Kitchen Kabaret** attraction. We explore the history of the 1982–1994 Land Pavilion show, its 28 audio-animatronic food characters, Kraft Foods sponsorship, the beloved song **“Veggie, Veggie, Fruit, Fruit,”** and why this forgotten EPCOT classic still holds a special place in theme park history. The crew gives Kitchen Kabaret a combined rating of **4.6**! Plus, we announce a **one-week podcast break**, with the next full episode of Remy’s Roundtable returning **October 7th**! **Grab a snack, pour yourself a drink, and join Remy, Mike, and the Roundtable crew for another episode packed with food, theme park news, Disney history, Universal updates, and plenty of fun!**
