Did Somebody Say pictures? These were taken last weekend. Many of the booths still did not have the signs overhead. And the inside had not been constructed...(yes, we peeked.)

I am SOOOO excited. 11 days til F&W. I didn't even know about this festival when we booked our trip (I know, I must live under a rock!) BUT, now that I realize I can partake without actually having an extra ticket - I am so darn excited.

Great to have the pictures!!! 7 days of torture till we go! I have a question do you need ADR's for the new Tequila bar tasting in Mexico??

TDC Nala · 09-21-2009, 10:54 AM

If you just want to walk into the Cava del Tequila and order a margarita and some appetizers, you do not need ADRs, nor can you make them.

If you want to attend the Festival-sponsored tequila tasting there on weekends (which costs $35) you do have to book that ahead of time. Call 407-WDW-DINE or 407-WDW-FEST.

Does it concern anybody that the PFTS summary doesn't mention wine other than in the "Wine View Room"?

Party for the Senses — Celebrating Epicurean Themes — NEW
Delight in a tribute to the sensory arts! Each Saturday night of the Festival, the evening comes alive in a celebration of gastronomy at its best, combined with world-class musical acts, an elegant lounge filled with fellow food enthusiasts and more.

Reserve your seat at the Eat to the Beat! Concert Series at the America Gardens Theatre and settle in for a performance by a big-name musical artist. Immediately following the performance, the World ShowPlace becomes the setting for a grand culinary event. You're invited to wander among tempting tasting stations in the midst of imaginative décor and entertainment.

Also NEW this year is the Wine View Lounge: an exclusive area within Party for the Senses where you can mingle, relax and engage in pleasant conversation. For an additional fee, enhance your experience with amenities such as private reserved tables, premium bar and an artisanal cheese station.

It doesn't mention the commemorative wine glass either.

It is on the main site...link is on the first page.

This popular venue takes place each Saturday during the Food and Wine Festival at the World ShowPlace located between Canada and United Kingdom Pavilions. You’ll begin this memorable evening with reserved seating at the 5:45pm performance of the Eat to the Beat Concert. $135 per person plus tax, gratuity included. (Park admission is NOT included)

From 6:30 to 9:00pm, you’ll be sampling the culinary creations of 25 renowned chefs and over 25 wineries and breweries. Each tasting station will be a new sensation for the senses....

And each winery can have as many as 3 vintages.

TDC Nala · 09-21-2009, 03:59 PM

I am not concerned at all. I think it was left out because it's a given that there will be wine at the Party for the Senses. It's my estimation that there is going to be wine tasting as usual at the regular party, and perhaps better vintages, special beverages and larger pours for the Wine View Lounge. Actually the summary says nothing about wine in the Wine View Lounge either, it just says "premium bar" which could be anything.

The wine glasses are sort of a pain to take home so I won't be heartbroken if they don't have those.

Kteacher · 09-21-2009, 06:09 PM

I'm looking forward to the Wine View Lounge. Since we are only down for a long weekend, the only F&W event we are doing is PFTS, so I decided to spend the extra money. I can't wait to hear reports back after the Festival opens this weekend

I just had a sad thought. Utopias might be considered "premium" now.
