The news is finally official!
Orlando will be one of only eight destinations (and one of two U.S. destinations) profiled in season 7 of the popular Netflix show, “Somebody Feed Phil,” an unscripted culinary travel series starring Phil Rosenthal, premiering on Friday, March 1.
The “Everybody Loves Raymond” creator and his production crew filmed in Orlando last year, eager to showcase the destination’s award-winning, diverse and evolving dining scene.
Visit Orlando, the destination’s official tourism association, worked for over a year to secure this opportunity to feature Orlando in more than 190 countries and eight languages, including English, Spanish, Portuguese and French.
Following the unscripted and unrehearsed nature of the show, Rosenthal and his production crew spent a week exploring Orlando’s lesser-known and multicultural food scene.
Visit Orlando’s team connected Rosenthal and producers for “Somebody Feed Phil” with Orlando businesses, award-winning chefs, noted local personalities, elected officials and foodie experts to highlight Orlando’s culinary gems.
The local businesses visited by the “Somebody Feed Phil” crew include everything from Michelin starred restaurants to immigrant-owned businesses to multicultural and fusion options favored by locals. The full list will be revealed once the episode makes its debut March 1.
