Spice Road Table is a cozy Mediterranean treasure that opened in Morocco a little over 6 months ago.
We were there for the soft opening and we were very impressed with the service we received. Everyone was so friendly and really made us feel at "home".
The best part about going to Epcot are the different experiences you can have in one park.
Don't be afraid to talk to the Cast Members in the park. They love talking about their home country and are always willing to share so much with the guests. I think this is why we find ourselves here many times in one trip.
Spice Road Table gets its name from the legendary spice trades between historic civilizations in Asia,Northeast Africa and Europe. Herbs and spices were used to trade as a primary source of commerce. The most common used in this trade were cumin, cinnamon, tumeric, cardamom, cassia and ginger. So be ready to have a explosion of spices and flavors when you dine here.
I even ordered a glass of water so I could enjoy all of the flavors we were about to take in.
(They have a nice selection of wines, Mediterranean beers and cocktails too.)
There are 2 different seating options. I chose to sit inside because the weather was a little too chilly for this Florida girl. They have a beautiful patio area that would be a nice place to sit and relax on a warmer day though. We requested to be seated near the windows for a better view of World Showcase Lagoon.
When I got the menu I noticed it wasn't like a typical table service but it wasn't a counter service type restaurant. It was a nice mix of both. You had smaller portions of food but you had someone to serve you. I've noticed when we are at Disney we try things we wouldn't typically try at home. So this is always a fun adventure for us.I think we are finding ourselves to be Disney Foodies...OH MY!
We had a hard time deciding if we were going to get a platter to share or order something individually just because we weren't sure of the portion sizes. We decided to share and I'm glad we did because we had room left for desserts. I mean who doesn't pick dessert options before eating? Most of the time I'm so full that I don't even get dessert at Disney but this time the portion was perfect since we split it and could enjoy samples of our top 2 picks of desserts!
We started out with the Hummus and Imported Olives with Cornichons and Za'zatar FlatBread.
The 3 of us all had a nice size sample of everything that was on the platter and it was enough to enjoy but not too much that we had any left on the plate.
Our daughter got the chicken strips but said next time she was going to get her own Tingis Sampler! She really is a very picky eater but she transforms at Epcot into a different child. I am glad she is willing to sample different foods and if going to Epcot is what it takes, then LET'S GO!
The platter was small but filling. It was enough for each of us to have a good sample of each item without feeling stuffed. We slowly savored every bite but after the lamb slider we were already planning another visit to Spice Road Table. The Merguez sausage was amazing!!
The 3 of us all decided we wanted to try the Almond and Rosewater Cake with Blood Orange Sauce with a side of Chocolate Pyramid and Almond Ice Cream!!
*My daughter recently found Chocolate Pyramids in Walmart and after tasting one she threw the other in the trash.."they don't taste like they did at Spice Road Table" according to her. So it must be the MAGIC of Epcot*
The desserts were DELICIOUS!! The cake was so moist and you could taste a hint of the rosewater which made it even better.And the chocolate pyramid was...chocolaty! You can't go wrong with chocolate....
My family really enjoyed the experience and we can't wait to go back and enjoy this little hidden jewel in Epcot.
