You mentioned a Grand Tasting event at the Disneyland Hotel, but didn’t see anything in the stuff they published about the festival. How do we know this is happening? Did I miss it when I read Disney’s description of the upcoming event?
The Disneyland Hotel event is mentioned in the Disney Parks Blog post about the DCA Food & Wine Festival. https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2022/11/lunar-new-year-celebration-and-disney-california-adventure-food-wine-festival-return-in-2023-to-disney-california-adventure-park/
