As Universal Orlando\u2019s newest theme park enters its second year<\/a>, guests are continuing to discover all of the rides, experiences, and FOOD Epic Universe has to offer.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"Look at those toppings<\/p>\n

From quick service meals and themed feasts to decadent desserts and even some *exclusive* sodas, Epic has a unique offering for every theme park guest\u2019s taste.<\/p>\n

Butterbeer Crepes<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s begin with perhaps the most viral of Epic dishes: The Butterbeer Crepes. Officially known as the Bi\u00e8raubeurre Cr\u00eape, this crepe takes the iconic Wizarding World flavor features shortbread cookie butter, Bavarian cream, Bi\u00e8raubeurre cream, strawberries, Bi\u00e8raubeurre drizzle, and a shortbread cookie garnish. Fans of anything sweet \u2014 especially those who\u2019ve enjoyed the other versions of Butterbeer over the years \u2014 need to head over to the Ministry of Magic portal\u2019s Caf\u00e9 L\u2019air De La Sir\u00e8ne to give this one a try.<\/p>\n

\"\"SO GOOD!
\nCelestial Steamed Bun<\/p>\n

Containing a vegetable blend with bok choy, shiitake mushrooms, and vegetarian oyster sauce, these steamed buns make a portable and quick meal when strolling through the vast Celestial Park. They can be found at Star Sui Bao, located near Stardust Racers.<\/p>\n

\"\"Star Sui Bao
\nPizza Lunare<\/p>\n

Celestial Park\u2019s Pizza Moon is one of the most unique restaurants in all of Universal Orlando, with its steampunk aesthetic bringing diners into a whimsical world (and making those of a certain age feel like they\u2019re in a mid-\u201990s Smashing Pumpkins music video).<\/p>\n

\"\"Pizza Moon<\/p>\n

Of the multiple pizzas available on the menu, the Pizza Lunare stands out the most. It\u2019s topped with roasted garlic b\u00e9chamel, fromage de lune, ricotta, pancetta, garlic confit,\u2026 and did we mention the PURPLE celestial ube crust?!<\/p>\n

\"\"Not your typical pizza.
\nBurning Cheddar Bites<\/p>\n

Moving over to Dark Universe, the Burning Blade Tavern \u2014 themed to an iconic scene from Universal\u2019s Frankenstein \u2014 offers a treat with some KICK. The Burning Cheddar Bites, crispy fried jalape\u00f1o pimento cheddar bites with sriracha ranch, are certainly recommended for those who can handle the heat.<\/p>\n

\"\"Burning Cheddar Bites
\nPB&J Mac And Cheese Cone<\/p>\n

Perhaps behind only the aforementioned Butterbeer Crepes, the best-known food items at Epic have been the Mac & Cheese Cones available at Hooligan\u2019s Grog & Gruel on the Isle of Berk. While all three flavors have hit with many fans, I\u2019ll personally break the tie and name the PB&J \u2014 Pork, Bacon, and Jam as the best of the three.<\/p>\n

\"\"Snack menu<\/p>\n

When I first saw this mixture of creamy mac & cheese with bbq harissa pulled pork, peanut bacon jam, and parsley served in a crunchy cone, I thought it would be too much. I have daydreamed about it pretty much every day since.<\/p>\n

\"\"Dragon approved
\nBerserkers Meatballs<\/p>\n

Reaming in the Isle of Berk, let\u2019s move over to the massive Mead Hall and their Berserker\u2019s Meatballs. These Swedish meatballs come covered in onion gravy, lingonberry jam, and smashed root vegetables, making a delightful meal. Of course, there are options for those who aren\u2019t in the mood for beef.<\/p>\n

\"\"Berserkers Meatballs
\nGobber the Belch\u2019s Turkey Wings<\/p>\n

These roasted turkey wings come with herb garlic potatoes, roasted carrots, Cipollini onions, and wild berry bbq sauce are another incredible option.<\/p>\n

\"\"Mead Hall
\nDK Crush Float<\/p>\n

No matter which entree you indulge in, arguably the park\u2019s best dessert option resides in Super Nintendo World\u2019s Donkey Kong Country. The DK Crush Float \u2014 available at The Bubbly Barrel. This banana pineapple soft serve float features pineapple soda, a waffle bowl, sprinkles, toffee pieces, and caramel popcorn, all combining into a decadent treat that is perfect on a warm day. It\u2019s even available in a souvenir Donkey Kong mug!<\/p>\n

\"\"DK Crush
\nBONUS: The Epic Exclusive Coca-Cola Flavors<\/p>\n

Need to wash down all that food? Three of the park\u2019s portals feature exclusive Coca-Cola variants only available in those specific lands:<\/p>\n

Celestial Spritz: According to Universal, this flavor \u2013 located as the name would imply in Celestial Park- is a blend of Seagram\u2019s, along with cherry and orange flavors, and a secret \u201cadded tartness\u201d mixed in.
\nScreaming Bury: Located in Dark Universe, Screaming Berry blends Fanta Cherry and Fanta Fruit Punch with added grape and vanilla notes.
\nDragon Splash: This Isle of Berk specialty is a \u201czesty, citrus-forward mix\u201d made with Minute Maid Lime, Fanta Lime, and Mello Yello.<\/p>\n

\"\"Special Celestial Spritz drinks<\/p>\n

Each of these flavors is available in the Coca-Cola Freestyle machines located in its respective home portals, and trying each will probably make the Universal refillable mug worth it.<\/p>\n

\"\"Celestial Spritz!<\/p>\n

Whether your next visit to Epic Universe is your first or your fiftieth, these are some of the best food offerings to sample during your adventure. Stay tuned to AllEars for more on Universal\u2019s EPIC offerings.<\/p>\n
