Ashley was our server again, continue reading Quick Post – Another breakfast at The Wave in the Contemporary Resort … We eat at the Dolphin (well, Todd English’s bluezoo) on a very regular basis… But we rarely eat at the Swan in recent years… We’ve eaten at Il Mulino a couple of times with Lisa and Andy (back in the days before we blogged) and frankly, we were never very impressed; we learned recently that continue reading Breakfast at The Garden Grove in The Swan Resort – new to us … Let’s start out with some photos… before the event began, Nick was able to get some photos of the layout and the table settings – sushi chefs (all female) preparing sushi (for the dining room, not for the event) there were six-top tables and four-top tables, we sat at a four-top continue reading 2013 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival – Sake & Food Pairing at Tokyo Dining … We headed back over to bluezoo on Friday night, if you follow our twitter feed (@extrawdwmagic) then you already know about most of the meal… BUT here’s a recap, and a story… When we arrived, we noticed that Monique was behind the bar! Yay! Nick could order a Boulevardier (Monique has been working to get continue reading Yes, we’re becoming bluezoo fanboys (well, one of us is a fangirl) … We did this event two years ago, during the first year of it’s existence… it wasn’t as impressive as our first Tequila Lunch, so we decided to give it a year or two to mature. This year, Calvin agreed to come with us – it was nice to have a friend sharing the experience.
