Disney's Epcot is one of the best places [1] to snack and try new cuisines, but the options can be overwhelming. Dining at the various restaurants [2] and snack stands is an essential part of the Disney experience [3], and often becomes a favourite part of the trip for visitors. There are 11 countries in Epcot's World Showcase, which basically allows you to travel all around the world [4], experience different cultures, and taste different cuisines — all without ever leaving the park. But if you aren't sure which dish to get at each stop, we've put together a handy list of all the must-try dishes at Epcot. From poutine in Canada to ramen in Japan, here are the top 20 food items to taste the next time you eat around the world.
