These people take coffee seriously and the only place I know of, locally, that roasts their own. It's located in East End Market, a local food hub with a wonderful court yard where you can enjoy your goodies.

I don't know anyone who doesn't like to eat here. Small plates from a menu that spans all the Southeast Asian street food cuisine. Great for sharing.

This is the restaurant that is part of Dubsdread Golf Course. It's nearby and we always sit outside on the covered verandah and appreciate the golf course views dotted with old oaks draped in Spanish Moss. Antsy kids can explore nearby and still be seen, the menu is varied -- something for everyone -- and always good. People love their brunch (especially for holidays).

Just YUM. I became a rib convert after trying theirs. Also love their butter chicken tacos. This place is always abuzz and it's not expensive, family friendly and just delicious.

Chef Kevin is a James Bearde Award nominee. He makes delicious food. He cooks with love. He volunteers half of each school year to teach cooking to kids at a nearby school. He tends a garden behind the restaurant where you can dine. Check out his FB page for updates. He sometimes hosts Sunday Suppers that are a cool thing. http://krestaurant.net/

Fantastic, family-owned Italian restaurant. You can walk there from our house (in fact, you'd be crazy not to). http://adriatico-trattoria.com/

Need a good cup of coffee (and don't feel like making one at home)? Pop in here. The baristas work hard to make you happy. Baked goods usually for sale. Local art and local scene. The concept here is Pay What You Wish. Suggested prices are listed as a guide. But anything goes. Credo gives back to the community.

Go here if you want some real Orlando atmosphere. Located on a lake. Reliably good food. Sit outside if you can. Worth the wait for an outside table. BEST place to go for sunset drinks. You can find little garden nooks that are private, set with Adirondack chairs and little tables, overlooking the lake. A little pricey but I've never regretted going.

Wood oven pizza. Enough said. Ok, a few more things. Many people I know would make this the one restaurant they have to visit if they moved away and came back to visit. Great food and vibe. And the location on buzzy Park Ave can't be beat.

Neighborhood park. Playground. Open green space. A sidewalk encircles it. Exercise stations. Pretty pines with Spanish moss. Get a Starbucks on the way. Got kids? You can order takeout from Christo's on the nearby corner and eat at the park.

State park. You can swim in the springs (always 72 degrees). You can rent canoes or kayaks and easily paddle a couple of miles to Wekiva Island where there's a food truck and bar, then turn around, return your boat, then go for a dip in the springs. Super fun. You almost always see alligators in the river and always gorgeous birds.

Shopping

Super cool stationary store with strong, graphic design that will particularly appeal to travelers, as many designs are travel related. http://www.r-nichols.com/ Bet you can't browse without buying! This is where my Orlando LOVE mini print in the kitchen is from. All proceeds to the OneOrlando.org fund (each heart represents one of the 49 victims from the Pulse shooting).

Arts & Culture

Our outstanding new performing arts center is surely one of the best in the country (and we've seen dozens of them!). Check out their schedule for local arts groups as well as traveling Broadway shows (Broadway Across America).

This place is pricey. Not the place for essentials, but terrific deli and prepared foods and meat and seafood counter. Good for produce and organic options. Also good selection of specialty food items (like imported pasta and coconut milk ice cream). I love the roasted chicken salad from the deli, which they make in house. Great for a picnic or easy lunch.
