Saw this on WESH's website. Waldorf Astoria at Disney will be holding alot of their own Food & Wine Events. The Chocolate Shop Event sounds interesting. It also says some Downtown Disney places will be having events. Everyone is getting in on the act.
From WESH:
The Waldorf Astoria Orlando is hoping to lure visitors coming to Walt Disney World for the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival.
Several locations outside the theme park have added events this year to coincide with the annual festival, which draws both out-of-town visitors and locals alike. Fulton's Crab House, Portobello and Wolfgang Puck Café at Downtown Disney recently announced they're adding events as well.
The Waldorf Astoria Orlando has scheduled what it's calling Orlando Food & Wine Weekends from Sept. 30 through Oct. 30.
The five weekends are packed with wine dinners, tastings and demonstrations.
Here's a rundown of some of the events:
"Grand Pairings" Wine Dinners: Prix-fixe meal at Bull & Bear restaurant paired with wines. Wine representatives will be on hand. 7 p.m. $200 per person, tax and gratuity included. Menus for each night are available here.
