<\/p>\"devi<\/a>
\nThink about the most delicious Indian cuisine that you have ever had.\u00a0 Then you will have an inkling of my dinner at Devi, the only Indian restaurant in the U.S. to have earned a Michelin star. I was invited to Devi (along with several other writers) as a guest of Disney in celebration of their upcoming 16th annual Epcot International Food & Wine Festival.\n

Disney reps had taped a video with Suvir Saran, chef and owner of Devi, earlier in the day, because he is one of the celebrity chefs who are being featured at this year\u2019s festival. During the evening\u2019s intimate dinner, we talked a bit about the festival as Suvir graciously hosted the five courses that were accompanied by five different wines.\u00a0 Take a peek at two of my favorite dishes:<\/p>\n

\"grilled<\/a>
\nGrilled Halibut with Sweet and Sour Butternut Squash and Lemon Rasam
\n
\n(Whoever said that I needed to give squash a second chance was right. This butternut squash was amazing.)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"tandoor<\/a>
\nTandoor Grilled Lamb Chops with Pear Chutney and Southern Indian Potatoes
\n
\n(This lamb chop was so tender that I could cut it with a butter knife!)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The meal that I enjoyed was just a small teaser for the Epcot Food and Wine Festival. I actually attended one of the Epcot Food and Wine Festivals back in 2008 and it was fabulous. It really was like a foodie paradise.\u00a0 There was a wide variety of food and drinks presented by Disney and celebrity chefs from around the world as well as music and entertainment.\u00a0 At this year\u2019s festival, which will be held from September 30th<\/sup> \u2013 November 13th<\/sup>, Hawaiian and Caribbean options are going be added to the menu. (I love<\/strong> Caribbean food! Oh how I wish that I could justify going to Disney twice in one year, but sadly I cannot.)\u00a0 HGTV is even going to be doing a series of home entertaining seminars there. In any event, if you are going to be in Florida during the 45 days of the festival, you will not want to miss it.\u00a0 You can find more information at www.disneyworld.com\/foodandwine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

(On another note, I received a recipe book featuring top picks from past Epcot Food & Wine festivals.\u00a0 I gave it to Felicia \u2013 who does the FCM dessert column \u2013 and I think that we will all be enjoying a bread pudding recipe soon.\u00a0 I\u2019m also working on getting an Indian recipe (or two) from one of Disney\u2019s top restaurants to share with you\u2026)<\/p>\n

Thanks so much to Disney and Suvir for such an amazing dining experience!<\/em><\/p>\n
