A Foodie Favorite:
- The Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic has long been a favorite for a number of us here at Laughing Place.
- Taking place each fall, typically in the height of the nearby EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival, this event is a standout in the Orlando tourist corridor.
- Especially when compared to the EPCOT festival which is only steps away, the Swan & Dolphin Food & Wine Classic shows off a much more appealing value, with tickets including unlimited samplings at each of the many stations throughout the resort's iconic causeway of both food and drink.
- A far cry from the individual plates and oft critiqued pricing and value of the more popular festival in the nearby theme park.
