Disney World is now offering a 'cheese crawl' where guests can sample cheeses from around the world

Epcot's 24th annual International Food & Wine Festival kicks off on Thursday, Aug. 29, and this year, there's going to be a family-friendly cheese crawl.

Similar to a bar crawl, the cheese crawl, adorably named Emile's Fromage Montage after "Ratatouille's" lead character, will take guests through the festival to buy and try five different cheesy dishes. Each dish will earn them a stamp on a passport and after receiving all of the stamps, they'll get rewarded with a free cheesecake at the mimosa bar, Shimmering Sips.

According to The Daily Meal, cheesy dishes on the crawl include warm raclette Swiss cheese scraped right off the half wheel over baby potatoes, cornichons and a baguette from the Alps, a black pepper soufflé at The Cheese Studio, Brazillian cheese bread at the Brazil booth and more.

"Cheese has been the big theme," Rick DeCicco, proprietor of festivals, told The Daily Meal. The festival will also feature cheese seminars, a wine, chocolate and cheese pairing class and an artisan cheese making and entertaining course.
