I always enjoy your trip reports!
I think I've come to accept that I find one of the most best things about vacation is the food. I think its the part I look forward to the most. Your food pics are so amazing (especially the creme brulee).
Looks like we will be there the same time as you- I just finished the booking. We arrive on May 13th and leave the 19th. After changing the hotel reservations (first I thought a split stay would be fun) now we are at RPH for the entire stay. Im sure it costs more but at this point I like not having to move.
We will have a car for the entire time so will be looking to do some exploring- I was hoping you could make some recommendations for dinner outside of the parks? We will be arriving on Monday at dinner time, so I figured we would stop at the grocery store to pick up a few things- then stop for dinner before heading to the resort to check in. I'd love to hear where you guys love to go!
I will be there for my birthday- which will be fun Ill have to find a fun way to celebrate.
And
back to you too ck...……
Always good to see you..…..and I`m so happy you`ve booked RP!!!
Yes, food does play a big part of our trips......and the reason I`ll never be slim.....lol...…
Having a car is fabulous, we wouldn't be without one as it does mean we can mooch around to many places.....
I suppose it depends what you like.....we do like a mix of high end places and regular......for higher end Ocean Prime is on Sand Lake Road.....it`s a 10 minute drive.....
Orlando Ale House on Kirkman is fabulous...….Bubbalous barbecue and 4Rivers are two fabulous places......Bubbalous is ridiculously cheap and cheerful...looks a little different, but food is good....4Rivers is in Winter Park....about a 25 minute drive away......but worth it!!!
Teak Neighborhood Grill is a place we have been going to for years...….they also have an another restaurant called RusTeak a little further away......it was really good too, but we`ve just never gone back for some reason...….Smokey Bones down the 192 serves excellent food.....
Celebration is worth a visit, beautiful place with some lovely restaurants...…
Mount Dora is just under an hours drive away......I could live there!!!!
Hot n Juicy Crawfish is again, a ten minute drive at the most......beautiful seafood but served in a bag.....lol....very different...…
Toojays is a great lunch place......sandwiches and many entrees and beautiful cakes and pastries.....
There are some lovely choices at the Millenia Mall...….we are planning on going to PF Changs this trip.....and of course they have the Cheesecake Factory.....
Yard House by the Orlando Eye is excellent.....and there`s a great vibe there at night...…
Oceannaire at Pointe Orlando is another nicer place...…
Kobe, Longhorn and Red Lobster are all basic places we love, but you could have some around where you live...…
Seito Sushi is only ten minutes away and we only discovered that this past trip.....it`s on our must do list now!!!
I`m sure there`s more...….
But, glad you`re back and hope you enjoy this trip report too...….
