The Gaylord Palms resort in Kissimmee is reaching out to local foodies with a new wine-and-dine membership club.

For $150 per person, or $240 per couple, members in the Cork & Fork Club get priority invitations to select culinary events, and access to a private culinary concierge. Members also enjoy benefits such as a free night’s stay, 20% discounts at resort restaurants and lounges, a $50 spa voucher for a 50-minute treatment, and more.

The resort boasts a number of dining experiences including the Old Hickory Steakhouse, Sunset Sam’s Fish Camp, South Beach-style sushi at Sora and the Mediterranean-inspired Villa de Flora.

Not sure if membership is for you? The Gaylord Palms will be hosting a launch party for the Cork & Fork Club on September 22, 2010. The resort will be offering samples of food and wine from its restaurants, and the $25 per person fee to attend can be applied towards the membership price.
