A few weeks ago the lovely Lisa Wilk (Orlando Uncorked, Taste Cook Sip) organized an event in conjunction with Quantum Leap Winery and La Femme du Fromage herself, Tonda Corrente.

Quick Bite: The Bohemian Baker
Let me introduce you to an outgoing, whirlwind of a lady named Holly Luisi. She is a well-travelled personal chef and caterer originally from the American Mid-West with bouncy, golden hair and a warm smile.

Epcot Int’l Food and Wine Festival 2011: Part 2
There are several festival dishes that will look familiar from my last post, so I would retrace those steps again, but consider those dishes apart of my festival favorites. Many menu items, like Argentina’s beef skewers with chimichurri sauce and the Fisherman’s Pie, were also present at last year’s festival, which makes them reliable hold-overs […]
