Keep reading for all the reasons you won’t want to miss this year’s Flavors of Florida.

On select Fridays throughout the summer, chefs from some of your favorite Disney Springs restaurants will showcase the skills and creativity used to craft this year’s menu items.

During the culinary series hosted by Kroger Delivery, guests will feast their eyes on cooking demonstrations from kitchen masters sharing their unique talents. Registration is required, but it is free, so don’t forget to sign up to snag your spot.

Nothing elevates a dining experience like finding the perfect drink to complement your meal. With the return of Flavors of Florida pairing events, you will learn the secrets to curating the perfect food and drink combinations.

Disney Springs experts will host dinners featuring exquisite cocktails, wine, and beer pairings with flavors inspired by the Sunshine State. You’ll need to register for the pairing events, and payment is due at the time of registration. Stay tuned for more info!

In between trying all the fantastic food, don’t forget to check out the Discover the Springs seek and find presented by The Polite Pig.

With more than 1,200 acres of dining, shopping, and entertainment venues to explore, there’s always something new to discover, and the seek and find is a fun way to discover some of the hidden gems at Disney Springs. You can pick up the free event guide at select locations… and when you complete the seek and find, don’t forget to turn in your completed map for a special surprise!

Chefs at Disney Springs spent the past year creating so many unique appetizers, entrees and desserts that you will definitely need more than one visit to enjoy them all.

One of last year’s tastiest surprises—the St. Augustine Datil Pepper Fritas—is back for a second round at The Daily Poutine! The crispy pork dish features a datil pepper sauce and Florida hearts of palm slaw. But the beer cheese crafted from Sunshine Stroll Orange Pilsner helps make it truly special.

Sunshine Stroll was introduced during Flavors of Florida last year as a Disney Springs exclusive, and our chefs immediately went to work using it in various dishes like this one. I was thrilled to find out this dish is coming back and can’t wait to see what other creations use the exclusive pilsner this year.

While exploring Disney Springs Flavors of Florida, don’t forget to stop by Swirls on the Water for another returning treat—the Orange Bird Cone! This sublime dessert combines DOLE Whip® Orange in an orange cone, topped with sprinkles and a chocolate piece. It’s a delightfully satisfying sweet worthy of featuring the name of one of my favorite Disney characters.

If there’s a flavor that comes from Florida—peppers, citrus fruit, cheeses, and more—you’ll find it at Flavors of Florida. This year’s event will have over 90 menu items from 45+ Disney Springs restaurants! So, start planning your date nights, family outings, and celebrations, and we’ll see you at Disney Springs this summer.
