Disney4me Posted January 13, 2023 Report Posted January 13, 2023 One of the things that makes it easy to come back to festivals over and over again is how the returning booths change. Vibrante & Vivido One booth that keeps us on our toes is Vibrante & Vivido! The first year we saw this booth, the food was inspired by Mary Blair, the famous Disney artist who brought us artwork for Disney icons like “it’s a small world.” This year, the booth promised South American flavors combined with Blair’s signature bright art style, and boy did it deliver! Last year Vibrante & Vivido was given an Encanto-inspired makeover. ENCANTO TIME at Vibrante & Vivido! We got LOTS of stuff at this returning booth — ready for us to break it all down for ya? pic.twitter.com/Ean5TeMb9N — Disney Food Blog (@DisneyFoodBlog) January 13, 2023 What’s in store for the ever-changing booth this year? Keep reading to find out! Menu Vibrante & Vivido has brought back the colorful dishes we remember from last year. So far, the entire menu from last year is returning. Vibrante & Vívido Encanto Cocina Menu All three drinks, including the Coconut and Passion Fruit Smoothie, are returning this year. Items We started off with their Spicy Ajiaco Soup. This soup is filled with tasty ingredients, including guajillo and árbol chili-spiced chicken, potato, avocado, corn, and crème fraîche. This soup is not for the faint of heart! If you like your food spicy, you can get a bowl for $6.50. Spicy Ajiaco Soup You want to talk about SPICE? This soup was super spicy but in the best way possible. You don’t often get a lot of spice from Disney food, so we were happy to taste a dish that wasn’t afraid to really pack a punch. The corn was surprisingly one of the best parts! We thought this soup was overall delicious and was especially comforting considering it was very windy and rainy outside.

This house-made dish is served with turmeric aïoli and annatto aïoli, and makes for a pretty hearty plate. Last year we really enjoyed this empanada, and if you did too you’ll be happy to know it’s part of the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine again this year! You can try this out for $6.75. Chorizo and Potato Empanada with turmeric aïoli and annatto aïoli This empanada was spicy too, but not as spicy as the soup. We didn’t think it was too hot to enjoy, but more of an energetic compliment to the other flavors. If you like a little bit of spice in your food you should try this out. The outside was nice and flaky too. Another item on the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine is the Chorizo and Potato Empanada from Vivante & Vivido!

It comes with dragon fruit jam for a totally fruity dish and can be found at Vibrante & Vivido for $5. We LOVED this dessert the first time we tried it and last year it was just as good, so how does it measure up in 2023? Passion Fruit Mousse with dragon fruit jam This is a classic Disney mousse. The flavor is very light, so don’t expect something too overwhelming. We enjoyed the refreshing flavor after our spicy food!

Let’s check out their drinks! Drinks It’s hard to beat a classic Frozen Piña Colada. You can get one for $14 at this booth, and we enjoyed the strong coconut flavor. If you’re looking for a cocktail that isn’t too sweet, we would recommend this one. Frozen Piña Colada The other cocktail at Vibrante & Vivido is their Passion Fruit Daiquiri for $14. You can’t really taste the alcohol in here, which could be a good thing or a bad thing! Passion Fruit Daiquiri If you’d prefer something non-alcoholic, check out their Coconut and Passion Fruit Smoothie. While “coconut” is the first thing mentioned in the name, we could taste a lot more passion fruit in this drink. You can try it out for yourself for $4.75. Coconut and Passion Fruit Smoothie After all of our spicy food we had to get a smoothie to cool ourselves off! Lastly, from Vivante & Vivido, we got the Coconut and Passion Fruit Smoothie It’s non-alcoholic and only $4.75! pic.twitter.com/yIyDKMePJA — Disney Food Blog (@DisneyFoodBlog) January 13, 2023 So what did we think about this booth? OVERALL We were very impressed with Vibrante & Vivido! Their savory dishes had tons of flavor that surprised us (in a good way!). The mousse was the perfect treat to refresh your palette, and they have a great selection of drinks that all pair well with these offerings. This booth just might be in the running for our favorite of the festival! If you want to see where it ends up in our rankings, stay tuned to our site!
