Takumi-Tei@Walt Disney World EPCOT ★★

High-End Omakase Dinner at Walt Disney World. By Mitsukoshi. Good quality. Nice presentation. New seasonal menu since July. Japanese A5 Wagyu option available with no surcharge. (Restaurants usually charge $50-$150 additional.) Wagyu option was fantastic, but the Lobster option tasted frozen and overcooked. Complimentary non-alcoholic sparkling drink at the end of the meal for celebrations. 5 themed rooms available: Wood, Paper, Stone, Water, & Earth. I dined at Paper & Wood room before. Earth Room for this time. Water Room is a private room with $100 surcharge. Omakase Kiku Menu $250 per person. Refillable hot or cold sencha tea $8. Sake pairing available. 10% Annual Pass discount no longer applies due to policy change.
