To say that the Four Seasons Orlando at Disney World put a lot of thought into its food program is like saying that Frozen is sort of popular with seven-year-olds. The Four Seasons hired a serious chef (formerly of New York City’s superchic NoMad), and then developed charcuterie, barbecue, coffee, gelato, and gin and tonic programs. Here, a closer look at the game-changing 443-room resort. —Gina Hamadey

Ravello executive chef Fabrizio Schenardi, originally from Torino, Italy, makes 30 kinds of gelato. Some are for kids—one is loaded with gummies—but most are classics like stracciatella. He’s using his grandmother’s bomboloni recipe for doughnuts both sweet (lemon crema) and savory (mortadella).
