It’s been a couple of very busy weeks since the Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic… Here’s a slideshow of the Causeway (there are captions under the images)…
A few quick notes:
- the food at this event is typically much better than the food found at the Marketplaces at the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival
- the tuna tartare from the Todd English booth was amazingly good, as were the shrimp tacos
- both evenings, the longest lasting lines were for the rock shrimp tacos (Todd English) and the trio of tacos (Picabu) – guess tacos are really popular
- we sampled wines and beers – nick had more successful choices with beer than either of us did with wines (in particular: Highland Brewing Porter and Highland Brewing Gaelic Ale; but he liked the Breckenridge Swamp Head Vanilla Porter even more) – the wines were pretty unremarkable and only worth remembering so that we don’t order them in the future (the general consensus at our table, the reds all seemed “thin” – not in keeping with the wine that we had at Chef Cib’s Pasta Making Class)
- we really enjoy this event and would love to be able to reserve a table when we’re with a group…. it gets to be a bit crazy with more than 2 people trying to run around and taste and photograph things (note: there are fewer photos this year, for the great media style photos, go to swandolphinfoodandwineclassic.com)
