I have to agree the Seafood counter in Publix is fab, I buy loads of stuff from there incl teh odd lobster, crab, prawns, scallops, tuna etc etc and it is sooooooooo cheap compared to back in the UK.

Hi

Last time we went to our villa we went out for an Indian Curry just to see if the Chicken Tika was the same my 12 year old lover it!!!

We went to the Indian Diner on 192 opposite Medieval times

NEVER AGAIN

Coke was like water service was awful the chicken well I would not like to comment, I was suprised that we didn't go down with something the next day. It is like an all American diner with a couple of Indian pictures and a CD Player.

And they had the cheak to charge us 15% service charge for the worst meal ever. I said at the top of my voice on the way out what a cheak and I would be suprised if they were still in business in August when we next go.

Best Meal was at Charlies in Tampa and I love Gloria Estafans Festurant is it Bongo's.

Thanks Dianne

Thats a shame, when did they stop using quality icecream? It was always good stuff when we frequented the place.

This year taking on board tips from this board im looking to forward to trying Mannys, The Kitchen Sink desert at Disney and it seems the Buffet at the Rennaissance as well as some more Ice Cream down at Celebration.





mjc the Kitchen Sink looks very impressive and is fine if you like highly coloured, artifical tasting icecream - very over rated in my view

We live here.... so here's ours:
Jack (6) Panera Bread! He loves the soup in a bread bowl. Kobi's Japanese Steak House. Kinda expensive, but he likes watching the food being cooked!
Elena (13) Olive Garden, She loves their salad bowl!
Matt (16) The Orlando Ale House on N436.
Amy (25ish) Seasons 52, Stephano's a great mom and pop Italian place here in Semilole County.
Me (over 40) Texas De Brazil, Ruth's Chris.

There are many others. The Canadian place at Epcot does a great steak. Chili's is great for lunch. Rainforest Cafe is also a great lunch place if you are in the Disney area.

We tend to miss any fast food joints. Micky D's, Burgler King, Wendys, and my personal hate.... Taco Bell!

I have been to a number of Ruth Chris's in the states, but did not know that there was one in orlando - where about is it?

Just thinking about their steaks is making my mouth water....

Other fav places are Outback, Bahama breeze and texas de brazil.

Least favourite are any of the buffet places -

In almost 17 years of going to Orlando ,the hands down worst food (overpriced too IMHO) was at Cooke's Fish and chip place at DTD. Not the sort of thing we would normally grab on hols to be fair, but we had just walked that far and family wanted to eat!! OMG!! It was more like " do you want food with your salt ?" , truely was the most disgusting thing I have ever tasted, fish was soooooo greasy, chips were fat and revolting, and 3 portions of Fish and chips was $30....yuk! Not for us! You live and learn.

Who goes to Florida for fish and chips?

This reminds me of a time a few years ago we were at the Brit Pub over at Epcot on Christmas day. We were seated next to a Welsh family who were complaining about their 'traditional christmas dinner' not being like mum's at home! And they were getting irate!
I said something and was told to mind my own business!

Couldn't agree more!! But the place was FULL of Americans who seemed to be tucking in and enjoying it Praps we were unlucky? As I said , it is abslutely not my thing to rush to places like this at all when in Florida, bt didn't expect it to be awful. Never mind, won't do it again Have never been in The Brit pub in Epcot, it awlays seems popular with somebody, didn't realise they did food even to be honest

I agree Carol, the food at Cookes is not very good at all.

We go when we are out there for longer spells and fancy some f&c as we can't get it here really but wouldn't rush back. I had it in RR when R&A took me out for dinner and it was much nicer.

We had Fish and Chips from a shop at Berry Town Centre once - expensive but good. We only went in for a drink at the bar but it looked so nice that we had to have some

We have only tried the Taco Bell near Cagan Crossing's Walmart and (touchwood) have never had a problem, seems to be frquented by locals rather than tourist and our eldest daughter has become quite partial to her Taco's

This Taco Bell talk makes me laugh coz when I was in the early pregnancy stages with our youngest, we went to Florida and I absolutely CRAVED Taco Bell!! Nobody else wanted to go and it took me all week to persuade everyone that it just had to be done. Well, at the time I loved it - can't remember what I had and I know that the others weren't particularly impressed - but for me it hit the spot big time!!! Mind you, with pregnancy number one it was MacD's hash browns (again in Florida - the English ones are just not the same)so maybe it's just me, pregnancy and junk food!!

Normally my taste buds are quite sane.............
