    Sweet tomatoes

    On I drive - fantastic salad buffet. Easily the nicest salad we found. Does not serve steaks/ chicken etc though so may not be for everyone. It mainly consists of salads, soups, baked potatoes, sweet potatoes, pizza, breads, pastas and sweets. Great value ($8.99) and great service!

    Yes, excellent place.

    The menu for lunch is the same as the dinner menu but a couple of bucks cheaper (lunch finishes at 4pm).

    I have often found discount coupons in the Sentinel.

    One word of warning do not go on a Sunday lunch time the queues are huge (if locals are willing to get in line for Sunday brunch it must be good).

    We ate here last week,its on I-drive at the junction of Kirkman Road, an ideal location when you have been to Universal to stop off for somthing to eat.

    I never thought I could be as full on salad as I was it was real good value for money and good quality fresh food constantly being replenished.

    We are not Veggies but it was great, if you are becareful with some of the soups as they are meat based.

    It is well worth a try, we had it recommended, I was not that bothered about going being a steak lover, but it is now on our list of good places to eat.

    That is one problem that we have found both in the UK and US. Soups seem to contain Beef drippings or some other non-veg stuff even if it is labelled as a 'Vegetarian' one. It makes life really difficult for our Veggie relatives.

    We were there last month and they had a wonderful chicken pot pie that was really a thick creamy soup with huge chunks of chicken breast in it along with mushrooms, carrots, peas etc. It was really good with the warm buttermilk biscuits. They also had delicious apple and cinnamom or cherry cobbler, yummy. November in Orlando is obviously so cold (it was mid 80's) that they were bringing out all the winter warmer dishes.

    When we were there a waiter gave us some coupons for 15% off our next visit, each coupon was valid for upto 4 people and could be used upto December next year, we went back and used 1 and have kept the others for our visits next year.

    We got caught out by that once, ordered a burger and chips and got crisps. Also asked for tomato sauce and got pureed tomatoes.

    Just to put a slightly different spin on this subject, in Ft laud the missus asked for cotton wool, to which the assistant replied "which one do you want"?
