Hello there from the EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival! We’re making our way around the World Showcase, checking out all there is to see, do, and EAT!

Miguel and Dante from “Coco”!

So, imagine our surprise when we made our way over to one booth, in particular, only to find that it was CLOSED! Luckily, we quickly found out what the deal was — here’s what you need to know.

Well, we thought this booth would be ready to open today after the construction walls came down in EPCOT, but it looks like things aren’t quite ready over at the Florida Fresh booth!

We made our way over here to check out the menu and try some of the items and were surprised to find a closed booth with a Cast Member stationed out front. They advised us that the booth wasn’t quite ready for visitors, but in the meantime, the Florida Fresh eats could be found inside the Odyssey building temporarily.
