A few weeks ago while I was at Walt Disney World I finally had the chance to attend the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic. I say finally because year after year I have been unable to attend, this year I broke that cycle!
The Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic featuresย cuisine from the hotelโs own award-winning signature restaurants: Il Mulino New York Trattoria, Shulaโs Steak House and Todd Englishโs bluezoo, with wine and spirits samplings from around the globe.
We started off the event with one of the special events Itโs better to Wine in Italian with Kristian. We had so much fun learning about the wines from my native country. All of the wines were spectacular and Kristian was very informative and a great teacher!
After the seminar we went outside to sample the food & drinks! Let me just say I have never done anything like this before and wasnโt sure what to expect, if you have ever done Party for the Sensesย at the Epcot Food & Wine Festival this is almost identical, but the Swan & Dolphin event covers a much bigger space and honestly to me is a far better value.
All of your favorite restaurants from the Swan & Dolphin are here. I have never dined at Shulaโs and Il Mulino but after tasting their bites I want to go BAD!
The food at the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic is innovative, creative, and so delish! The Steamrollers above was a shrimp cocktail in a tube that you sucked in and got all of that goodness in one bite. I had at least 5 of those!
There was live music and all of the Cast Members were friendly yet very very busy!
They had a HUGE Beer Garden with some of the best tasting beers and foods. I felt like I was in Germany. ย Probably one of my favorite areas was the Carnival Corner, you guessed it this is where they had the desserts.
I can now say I had Nitro Kettle Corn! Who doesnโt love Funnel Cake topped with powder sugar?
Overall the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic was a blast! My suggestion would be to stay at Disneyโs Swan & Dolphin for the weekend and visit both days for the Food & Wine Classic. Between all of the delicious food, the wonderful people, and all of the wine & beer you can handle this event is well worth the price tag.
Here are some more photos from the event, I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed going to the event! Stay tuned for the announcement on when you can visit next years Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic!
