Walt Disney World isn’t the only thing in Orlando!
There are lots of hotels outside of Disney World that guests stay in when they visit Orlando. Some of these are good neighbor hotels, like the Swan and Dolphin Resort, which allow guests to have the same perks they would get at Walt Disney World resorts. The Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress is a hotel that features the popular Four Flamingos Restaurant, and a celebrity chef is greeting guests at dinner services this week!
Celebrity Chef Richard Blais, the winner of Top Chef and co-host of Next Level Chef w/ Gordon Ramsay, will be greeting guests during dinner service at his restaurant, Four Flamingos: A Richard Blais Florida Kitchen at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Hotel, July 12th through 14th!
We saw Richard Blais visit his restaurant earlier this year and saw a sneak peek of the restaurant before it opened in 2021 as well. You can make your reservations to dine at Four Flamingos here — be sure to grab one soon before they fill up!
If you’re dining inside Disney World, we suggest you check out the new side at The Polite Pig in Disney Springs, or the new Disney World meal that’s served in a BAG (yes, you read that right)! Stay tuned to DFB for all the latest Disney and Orlando news!
