The Four Seasons Orlando Resort at Walt Disney World Resort is about to celebrate their 1 Year Anniversary on August 3, 2015 and they are celebrating in a few ways. For food, special anniversary dinners are being offered at Ravello and Capa with pre fixe menus. If you have not had a chance to dine here, this is a good opportunity to try them out. My experiences at both restaurants have been great food and service.
There are lots of great views at this resort and plenty of photos can be seen from last year’s preview event: Four Seasons Orlando Resort at Walt Disney World – Sneak Peek Photo Preview

The resort has a few awards to celebrate, which includes receiving the coveted AAA Five Diamond Award ranking for the second year in a row and still the first and only resort in Central Florida to receive this designation.

Special Anniversary Dinner at Ravello
Enjoy a delicious three-course meal at the Resort’s Italian restaurant, helmed by Torino, Italy native Executive Chef Fabrizio Schenardi. All of the pasta, breads and pizza dough at Ravello are made fresh in-house daily, and many recipes Schenardi uses are from his grandmother’s kitchen, bringing an authentic taste of Italy to diners at Ravello. The Ravello dinner on August 3 is offered at USD 33 per person.
The three-course dinner menu includes:
First Course – Beef carpaccio with cured mushrooms, pickled radish and watercress; or Cesare with hearts of romaine, Parmigiano, anchovy and focaccia croutons; or grilled calamari with orange, fennel, arugula and capers
