I was recently treated by Gaylord Palms Resort to a “Dine Around” at the hotel and was quite impressed with the dining options and the staff.

I took dozens of food photos, which I’ll share with you soon, but in the meantime I wanted to let you know about the resort’s Food and Wine Experience:

This limited-availability package provides special all-inclusive experiences and itineraries that incorporate a visit to Epcot with other extraordinary culinary experiences that are not otherwise available to an Orlando visitor.

Old Hickory Steakhouse Cheese Selections

Enjoy intimate receptions, extraordinary winemaker’s dinners, special tastings, and chances to meet and interact with our resort chefs, beverage partners and culinary staff. In addition, a visit to the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival will be supplemented back at the hotel with special materials, and unique culinary experiences available only to our guests.

Availability: October 16-18, 2009
Duration: 2 nights
Price: From $499 per person
To Book: This package is available by phone only. Please call (407) 586-2000 to make your reservations.

Gaylord Palms boasts several fantastic restaurants, including Sunset Sam’s Fish Camp, Villa de Flora, Sora (Sushi and wine bar), and the Old Hickory Steakhouse, where the chef is quite proud indeed of his favorite cheese cows!

I hope you get a chance to visit, but if you still need some convincing, stay tuned for my upcoming blog about my Dine Around at the resort.
