I've been to five or six of the Swan and Dolphin Food and Wine Classic events over the years. They're a lot of fun… but like most things these days, they are a little different then when they first started. Rather than writing a normal review — I thought I'd jot down some thoughts I came up with when trying to answer my own ... ( read more ... )

Harbor Nights is a series of dining events that take place several different times a year at the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel, each with a slightly different seasonal twist that shows up in the food, wine, music and decore. The "La Dolce Vita" event takes place right at the start of autumn, (which does't really mean much here in Florida ... ... ( read more ... )

It's been a loooong time since I visited SeaWorld’s Expedition Café… almost seven years in fact. So it seems like a good time to pop in and see if anything has changed. This had been one of our top three dining locations at SeaWorld. Back in the day, three distinctly different culinary styles were represented — ... ( read more ... )

The Waterway Grill counter service restaurant at SeaWorld has been open for quite a while now, and I'm only just getting around to sampling some of the menu items. Prior to the general area being themed more around the Infinity Falls™ attraction — this location had been called the Terrace BBQ, and even before that, the ... ( read more ... )

It's been a while since we visited Panini Shore Cafe for a bite to eat. Looking back at the records it's actually been about seven years since we last got a sandwich from Panini Shore Cafe! Where does the time go?  Located between the Shark Encounter & Feeding attraction and the entrance to Mako®, Panini Shore Cafe has been ... ( read more ... )

I visited Primo Piatto at Disney's Riviera Resort prior to the great closedown of 2020. The burger that I tried (the Riviera Burger) is no longer on the menu for lunch or dinner at Primo Piatto, but I suspect the new burger that is on the menu (although slightly simpler, from a gastronomic standpoint) is just as good, and on the same ...

I'm so glad I'm getting a chance to write this dinner review from a visit to the Crystal Palace that took place just before the parks closed due to the Covid-19 outbreak. I would imagine, character buffet dining... is going to be one of the more difficult experiences to host in the future, but I hope we can get back to it one day — ... ( read more ... )

I had a chance to spend a couple of days at Epcot recently and stopped in to check out the new Regal Eagle Smokehouse located in the American Adventure pavilion. It's a counter service restaurant that replaced the older "Liberty Inn" counter service location. I definitely want to get back there again and spend a little more time looking ... ( read more ... )

I had a chance to meet some friends for dinner at Paddlefish not too long ago, and so my perspective for this review, is just simply as a guest… and not a reviewer. The most obvious difference is, that I don't have 100s of photos of the various dining rooms at the paddleboat themed restaurant. I know there's an outdoor patio on the ... ( read more ... )

Sebastian's Bistro is one of the newer table service restaurants at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort. It's a smaller location with seating for… maybe 120 guests… with a nice, fresh, modern Caribbean design aesthetic. Because it's located in the Caribbean Beach Resort, I guess the only option was to call it "Sebastian's ... ( read more ... )
