I always say “oui oui” and “ooh la la” when I visit Epcot. My favorite “Must Visit” pavilion is France. Their slushees are legendary and this holiday season they did not disappoint with a boozy Frozen Hot Chocolate made with @greygoose vodka! 🇫🇷 I enjoyed a double dose of chocolate pairing it with the Buche du Noel Au Chocolate, Christmas Log chocolate cake with dark chocolate caramel ganache. It was so rich I could (ahem, should) have shared it! 😉 
Epcot Festival of the Holidays is happening now thru 12/30/19. A wonderful way to get into the holiday spirit, learn about holiday traditions around the world, enjoy lovely bites and sips created especially for the festival and even do a little shopping. 
Will you be visiting #EpcotHolidays? There’s lots of great choices to get the most foodie bang for your buck. Let me know if you need any recommendations.

Wishing you a most delicious Thanksgiving holiday shared with loved ones. 🍁🦃 Would you like to celebrate Thanksgiving Dinner 365 days a year? 
One of my favorite restaurants in Portland Oregon is not a trendy James Beard Award winner. And, it’s not known for the latest food trends. In fact, what I love most  is that not much has changed since it opened in 1879. The oldest restaurant in town, opened originally as a saloon, started serving turkey dinners and sandwiches during Prohibition thanks to Jim Louie, a Chinese immigrant cook who later became owner. Today Huber’s is owned by Jim’s nephew’s children James Kai, David and Lucille Louie and is known for their famous traditional turkey dinner, cooking anywhere from 20-100 herbed turkeys per day! 
James “Jim” Louie introduced their now iconic Spanish Coffees with a show. I had the great honor of interviewing him a few years ago and he was fascinating.  My husband and I went to Huber’s on our first date 24 years ago and visit every year when we go back home. It’s on my Must Eat List of Portland and I highly recommend it be on yours. 
Happy Thanksgiving!

Instagram post 17854363252657534 “So we came to the Ritz hotel and the Ritz Hotel was divine. Because when a girl can sit in a delightful bar and have delicious champagne cocktails and look at all the important French people in Paris, I think it is divine.” - Anita Loos, “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” .
.

It may not have been Paris, but cocktails, champagne and gorgeous nibbles at the newly revamped Lobby Lounge at the Ritz Carlton Grande Lakes in Orlando was simply divine. Yes, Orlando!
.
.

I was invited to experience the new space and started the night with dessert and cocktails!  As everyone should... Who could resist a made to order coffee ice cream and Nutella panini? Worth-Every-Calorie! .
.

And "The Tales of Mermaids" cocktail made with Cathead Honeysuckle vodka, Creme de Violet, and prosecco with a glimmer sugar rim put me in a festive mood. .
.

By the way, this is no longer your grandfather’s and grandmother’s Ritz. Gone are the classic drapes and ornate carpet. Instead we found a modern and luxurious indoor space with massive floor to ceiling windows which welcome the outdoors (especially when they open up and let cool breezes in). Perfect for enjoying the beautiful nights in Central Florida this time of year. .
.

The Ritz. As chic and divine as ever. 🥂

Check out stories for more. @ritzcarltonorlando is definitely worth the drive. I recommend cocktails in the lobby bar at sunset and dinner at @highballandharvest Highball & Harvest for a perfect date night. On Fridays and Saturdays they feature live entertainment. Last night we were wowed by James (@jamyourfaceoff) with everything from Van Morrison, Dire Straights to Prince's Purple Rain. He will return with a full band on New Year's Eve! .
.

I also can’t wait to return to check out their new offerings for the legendary "Afternoon Tea at the Ritz". It’s always been one of my favorite outings with girlfriends. .

I love to discover new food! Have you been to Zeta Asia at Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek? It's a bit of a hidden gem worth the drive to this gorgeous resort in the Walt Disney World Resort area. The chic lounge features a pan-Asian menu to please all diners. Check out my favorite 9 Must Eats on the menu! 
From spicy tuna nachos on wasabi scented nori chips to slow roasted pork belly bao buns, gorgeous sushi rolls and crispy pork tonkatsu, there's something for everyone at Zeta Asia. Even vegans will love the vegan version of the hearty short rib bibimbap bowl. And for dessert, it doesn't get more decadent than a warm brownie swirled with peanut butter cheesecake topped with vanilla ice cream. Pair it with the @suntorywhisky Suntory Toki Whiskey Chocolate Old Fashioned and you've got yourself a winner! >>> This is the last weekend for @waldorforlando and Hilton @bonnetcreek popular Food & Wine Weekends special events. You can dine on all my Zeta Asia favorites in a four course menu for only $35 pp!! Add wine and cocktail pairings for $35 pp, well worth it considering the high end selections. Available only this Friday and Saturday. Don't miss it!

⠀
Hands down my favorite experience of this year’s 2019 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival was “The Parisian Afternoon” special event in Monsieur Paul, signature restaurant of the France Pavilion. 🇫🇷 ⠀
⠀
We escaped the hustle bustle and crazy long lines outside and in the blink of an eye were transported to Paris via MTS (Magical Transportation System). ✨ The plush surroundings and attentive French staff helped fuel our imagination. Our taste buds made the magical journey complete.⠀
⠀
We sipped unlimited mimosas and noshed on beautiful finger sandwiches, chilled vichyssoise with a delightful worth-the carbs puff pastry and best of all decadent pastries and macarons. All made in house by the talented culinary team led by Executive Pastry Chef Olivier Saintemarie, named one of the Top 10 Pastry Chefs in America! ⠀
⠀
Add this experience to your “Must Do” List and get ready to “ooh la la!” ⠀

⠀
That’s what we got when @socothorntonpark celebrated their 5 Year Anniversary with an epic collaboration dinner featuring Soco Chef/Partner Greg Richie with Chef Patrick Tramontana of @antonios_maitland1 , Chef Venoy Rogers III of @americankitchenlbv, ⠀
Chef Stuart Whitfield of @theglassknifewp ⠀
and Mixologist PJ Smerechansky @the_alcohol_alchemist of Nomad Lounge. ⠀
⠀
Read all about the evening of surprises on GoEpicurista.com⠀
⠀
From a gin cocktail with a punch, scallops that masqueraded as smoked meat, pasta that wasn’t pasta, a meaty course that came with a warning and bread pudding that didn’t look like what you expect. These talented gentlemen brought their A game and surprised us with creativity and heart. A true representation of the culinary community in Orlando. ⠀
⠀
Most of all it was delicious fun with foodie friends in this neighborhood restaurant we love. ⠀
⠀
If you haven’t been to Soco in Thornton Park, add it to your list. Don’t wait and go #MakeSomedayHappen ⠀

⠀
Do you love coffee and chocolate as much as I do? The Brazilian Cappuccino at Holy Grain Coffee Shop is divine. 😇 ⠀
⠀
When the nice girl behind the counter told me there was “real melted milk chocolate” at the bottom of the mug, I immediately said “SIM POR FAVOR & OBRIGADO” (Yes, Please & Thank You!) 🙏⠀
⠀
It’s #NationalCappuccinoDay and from now on I’m making mine a Brazilian 🇧🇷 ⠀
⠀
@holygraincoffee is my new favorite coffee shop in the Dr Phillips area of Orlando. There’s plenty of seating and WiFi to get work done. I had a tasty Caprese Sandwich on one visit and the Caprese Salad with fresh pesto dressing on another. I had to resist temptation from the gorgeous Brazilian pan de queijo, (cheese bread!) pastries and cakes. But next time I’m going for it! ⠀
⠀
Have you tried a Brazilian Cappuccino?⠀

⠀
What's your favorite way to release stress? Today is #StressAwarenessDay and a great reminder to take time out of your busy schedule and enjoy life. ⠀
⠀
My favorite stress-reliever is having a spa day with friends. Yesterday I had the best day playing hooky in the middle of the week at @universalorlandohotels Portofino Bay Hotel and @mandaraspa. The "Super Food Facial" was fantastic! (They use @Elemis just like on cruise ships so I felt like I was truly on vacation!) Followed by hot stone massage, paraffin hand and foot treatments, sauna and hot tub. I literally felt the stress melt away. ⠀
⠀
After we were thoroughly pampered, we sipped prosecco and shared an enormous Antipasto Salad and Prosciutto and Mozzarella panini from Sal's Marketplace while finally enjoying cooler weather in Orlando. Of course, we pretended we were on vacation in Italy. Sometimes all you need is a few hours with a good friend to reset your mind and body and resorts like Portofino help us do just that. ⠀

⠀
Do you agree that Doughnuts + Gelato = Happiness? 🍩🍦😁⠀
⠀
Who would you share this Sugar Bomboloni filled with Amarena Cherry Gelato with? Or would you eat it all by yourself? 🙋🏻‍♀️⠀
⠀
In honor of the most sacred of holidays, #NationalDoughnutDay I’m celebrating with the Italian version. Bomboloni are irresistibly light and delicious fried Italian doughnuts, coated in granulated sugar. They are often stuffed with pastry cream. At La Luce at Hilton Bonnet Creek, it was stuffed with gelato which is even better!⠀
⠀
This indulgent dessert is part of the Food & Wine Weekends 4 course “Best of La Luce” tasting menu, $55 pp available Fridays and Saturday’s thru November 24, 2019 at La Luce Hilton @bonnetcreek ⠀

⠀
A visit to family owned and run Stasio’s Italian Deli & Market in The Milk District of Orlando is worth the drive if you want to eat well, laugh often and love much, as the Italian saying goes. ⠀
⠀
It may have been #NationalSandwichDay yesterday but scroll through to see their killer subs made with fresh house-made bread, Italian cured meats and imported cheeses and you'll agree that every day is Sandwich Day at Stasio's. ⠀
⠀
According to owner Maria Palo, today is “National Happy Day!” but that one would also be any day at Stasio’s!  Louie and Maria along with their children, Al, Michael and Dianna know how to make you feel at home. Stock up on Italian goodies from the marketplace, and then get an Italian sub, an espresso and an Italian pastry at the counter.⠀
⠀
"The Stasio" loaded with prosciutto, hot cappicola, mild sopressata, fresh mozarella, roasted peppers, red onion drizzled with white balsamic vinaigrette is the Italian sub of my dreams.⠀
⠀
The Pork Sausage and Broccoli Rabe is a perfect mix of spicy and slightly bitter flavors.⠀
⠀
The Melanzani with eggplant, spinach, roasted red pepper, marinated tomatoes and fresh mozzarella is another winner. ⠀
⠀
Mangia! #MakeSomedayHappen⠀

⠀
Ever stop to think about the first person who ate something odd like oysters or frogs legs? What do you consider a bold foodie move?⠀
⠀
I loved the @theravenouspig  Crispy Oysters Steak Tartare and @1921mtdora “Nashville Hot Frog Legs” at last years Cows N Cabs event. I considered them the “foodie sorting hat” of the night. It was priceless to watch people’s reaction when they saw these dishes and the chefs told them what it was. You either 👍🏼 (foodie) or 👎🏼 (not) 🤣⠀
⠀
But you don’t have to be bold to enjoy over 30 of the best restaurants in Orlando at the @cowsncabs event on 11/9. Get your tickets ASAP before they sell out! All proceeds benefit @elevate_orlando  and @afterschoolallstars ⠀

Instagram post 18010128427254233 Happy Halloween! 👻 Want to know what scares me? Don't let the nervous laughter fool you, zombies don't scare me. I braved the scare zones and haunted houses at @UniversalOrlando Halloween Horror Nights #HHN29 twice this year (you can read all about my deliciously spooky time on the blog). But, let me tell you what is more frightening than zombies and monsters... ⠀
⠀
The huge amount of waste generated by single use plastics is scary. I'm amazed to still see so many plastic bottles and plastic bags everywhere. ⠀
⠀
My friend Rachelle from @thetravelbite challenged me to join #OneLoveOnePlanet to bring awareness about reducing single use plastic at home, and how easy it is to eliminate them and make a difference for our planet. Small gestures such as carrying a reusable water bottle, using reusable shopping bags, and saying no to straws are easy to do.⠀
⠀
My @corkcicle bottle goes everywhere with me.  Not only is it good for the planet, but it helps me get my daily water intake. I brought it to Universal Studios and although I was a bit annoyed I couldn't go thru security with it filled with water (I thought that only applied to airports), it was easily remedied once I got to @Starbucks inside City Walk and they kindly filled it for me.  I would love to see water bottle refill stations and soft drink stations at all the theme parks instead of single use plastic bottles. Hey, imagine if they sold collectible bottles with special priced refills. I bet they would make a fortune and help the environment in the process. (Just sayin' 😉) ⠀
⠀
🌎Now I’m asking YOU to be part of this challenge! Bring awareness and spread this much-needed conversation around the world. Let’s unite and do this together!⠀
⠀
Here are the rules on how you can participate:⠀
⠀
1) Post photo of yourself using a reusable water bottle or bag with the hashtag #OneLoveOnePlanet⠀
2) Tag 2 (or more!) friends to challenge them next to post a photo!⠀
⠀
I'm nominating my friends @beautyandthebeets and @tastecooksip to take the challenge!⠀

⠀
Have you done anything impulsive lately? Sometimes you just have to say YES!⠀
⠀
Seize the moment! ⠀
⠀
🦀 When my friend Chef Jason Shenefield said he had fresh off the boat stone crabs from Central Florida Coast, I said YES! ⠀
⠀
🍷 When my friends at C Mondavi Wines said they had a new lineup of easy drinking, affordable boutique style wines called Flat Top Hills Wines being introduced to market and asked if I’d like to try them, I said YES! ⠀
⠀
This is Carpe Diem. Enjoying life to the fullest. 🥂⠀
⠀
👉🏼 Stone Crab Season is now! If you live in Florida and want some of these fantastic large claws served with a killer mustard sauce (like famous Joe’s Stone Crab in Miami!) look up Chef Jason Shenefield on Facebook to place your order.⠀
⠀
👉🏼 Pick up Flat Top Hills Wines (@flattopwines) at your favorite wine shop. The Sauvignon Blanc was a perfect pairing with shellfish. Crisp and clean with lovely lemon notes. It’s 100% varietal which for the price around $13.99 is a plus. I enjoyed the full lineup of stylized full bodied wines including Rose, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Red Blend. They each paired with food wonderfully but were also easy sipping on their own. Angelina Mondavi, 4th generation is the consulting winemaker which makes them even more special.⠀
⠀
Cheers! ⠀

Instagram post 17848524361719727 “The Internet is the most important single development in the history of human communication since the invention of call waiting.” - Dave Barry⠀
⠀
Can you believe the internet was invented in UCLA 50 years ago today!?⠀
⠀
Definitely an invention that has changed all our lives whether we wanted to or not. I still remember faxing rather than emailing, using paper maps instead of GPS & Google maps, calling friends vs DM, going to the library for research rather than “Just Googling” it, And saying “whatever happened to so and so?” rather than simply checking out their Facebook or Instagram account. 🤦🏻‍♀️⠀
⠀
How did we live without the internet?  It took a lot longer to do everything! It’s now one of the first things you consider when booking a hotel or traveling anywhere. How’s the Wi-Fi?⠀
⠀
And as much as we have a “Love-Hate” relationship with social media, the truth is I’m grateful for the opportunities it has brought. To connect with old friends and make new ones, and to allow businesses to connect with their customers and find new ones, in ways that simply were not possible before. It’s still exciting to explore the digital world.  This is why I love working with clients to help them take advantage of it as much as they can. ⠀
⠀
On the flip side is the need for digital detox every once in a while. I have yet to manage a getaway free from the internet but would love to know if you have. ⠀
⠀
BTW this was the most delicious welcome amenity I’ve ever received. It was a work of art made of giant blocks of @valrhonausa chocolate! Thank you InterContinental Miami pastry chef Berger and Exec Chef Tatan. I hope to return soon for another epic foodie weekend! ⠀(you can read all about it on GoEpicurista.com)

⠀
Where are my chocolate lovers at? I know you can relate. I used a lot of restraint, but you know I could've eaten the entire slab of chocolate bark, right? ⠀
⠀
It's #NationalChocolateDay and I can't help but dream of "Bar Du Chocolat" at @WaldorfOrlando Bonnet Creek Food & Wine Weekends. It's a feast for the chocolate lover, only available Saturday evenings until 11/24. When you go, abandon all sense of reason and restraint! ⠀
⠀
During the media preview, we watched with child-like glee as Exec Chef Bernard and Pastry Chef Carrie made this giant slab of chocolate bark come alive before our eyes using a mix of dark and ruby chocolate with all sorts of fun mix ins like caramelized hazelnuts and almonds, crispy strawberries and mango, and lots of caramel popcorn. It was so decadent! (Scroll to see the progress and check out stories for the full video)⠀
⠀
Bar du Chocolat consists of a giant display of assorted chocolate desserts and treats which you can pair with a glass of champagne for the perfect ending to a fantastic dinner at Bull & Bear, La Luce or Zeta Asian.⠀

Cheers to John Rivers on the 10 Year Anniversary of 4Rivers Smokehouse and his BBQ Ministry! Chef John always radiates joy and genuine love for what he does. And we are so grateful he feeds us his delicious BBQ. (This BBQ Party Board is happiness! Scroll to see some of my favorite @4riverssmokehouse meals!) ⠀
⠀
It’s wonderful to see how a small BBQ operation, which began in his garage as a fundraiser for a young girl battling cancer, has grown into 15 and counting 4R Smokehouse locations around Florida and the Southeast, various concepts (The Coop, Sweet Shop, 4Roots Farm, 4R Cantina) as well as my favorite fundraising event of the fall, Cows N Cabs. He has helped put Orlando on the culinary map and is a true supporter of the community.  Thank you @johnrivers4r. You and your team deserve all the success! 🎉⠀
⠀
Today 10/26 is being proclaimed “4 Rivers Day" by Winter Park Mayor Steve Leary. 4 Rivers will celebrate the delicious decade at their Fairbanks Ave location with live music, free deep fried desserts, a pig roast, free giveaways, beer samples provided by Redlight Redlight and more!  Celebration party starts at 5pm, open to the public. Proclamation Ceremony at 5:45 p.m. ⠀
⠀
Go get happy! Get 4R BBQ. Success will follow. #MakeSomedayHappen ⠀
