    We are going to be traveling this September to Disney for a week and I wanted to check on the Beef served at Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival. Are we allowed to ask for the cook to be medium-well or well done?

    Hiya, Jennifer, and welcome back to planDisney! Thank you so much for making us your go-to resource for Walt Disney World Resort vacation planning advice and information. My Panelist pals and I are here and always happy to help our fellow Guests, just like you! It sounds like you're counting down to a fun- and food-filled visit - just my style!

    Jennifer, you're going to love the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival! I always wish I had multiple days to enjoy the food and beverage offerings at the Global Marketplaces throughout the park. In my experience, I noticed that the food was prepared in advance and plated as it was ordered, then placed in a general pick-up area where Guests present their receipt to a Cast Member who hands them the corresponding item. Global Marketplaces are designed to be quick-service, and this process keeps the queues moving efficiently. If you have a special request, you're welcome to ask the Cast Member when you order. As someone who prefers beef on the rare side, I often find the meat at Global Marketplaces to be at least medium-well done.

    If you're looking for a cooked-to-order steak, you'll love Le Cellier Steakhouse, located within the Canada Pavilion at EPCOT. Cast Members will be happy to prepare the dish to your exact specifications. Don't miss out on the Sauce Flight to accompany your meal!

    Jennifer, I hope this is helpful as you pack your suitcases for your visit. Please stop by with any other questions you have!

    Bon appétit!
