    A cool place to chill out!

    A cool place to chill out!

    What child doesn’t like pizza or hot dogs, ice cream and a playground? Pure Magic is the ultimate child-friendly restaurant in Kissimmee! Where else can kids just be kids, run around, climb, write on the tables and floors and be rewarded with ice cream for it! Pure Magic, however, isn’t just ANY ice cream, it [...]

    No, THIS is a TV!

    No, THIS is a TV!

    Warning: The televisions at the Buffalo Wild Wings in Kissimmee may cause screen envy. Inside and out, the walls are plastered with at least 50 HDTVs of various sizes, most prominently a pair of 220-inch movie-type projection screens. You heard right. That translates to more than 18 feet from corner to corner. This Buffalo Wild [...]

    A man must walk before he can crawl

    When your  vacationing group of guys is ready for a night on the town, head on over to hit the clubs in downtown Orlando. (Not those clubs; That’s another website!) I’m talking about the nightclubs, bars and pubs that contribute to a thriving weekend nightlife in O-town. And if you’re unfamiliar with the area, you [...]

    99 bottles of beer, but not at one sitting

    99 bottles of beer, but not at one sitting

    When faced with a list of 99 bottles of beer, what do you do? In my case, I started with one not on the list — and it came in a can. The Celebration Town Tavern in Celebration, Florida offers such a list, and even better you can win prizes for drinking your way through [...]

    Fresh from the tap, craft beer helps beat the heat

    Fresh from the tap, craft beer helps beat the heat

    Just a little bit up the road from Kissimmee, in the town of Minneola, an unassuming strip mall houses one of my favorite things – a microbrewery. Lagniappe Brewing Company offers thirsty tourists and locals several of its fresh hand-crafted ales in a spacious tasting room separated from the brewing operation by a glass wall. [...]

    Hanging Out at the T-Rex Cafe

    Hanging Out at the T-Rex Cafe

    While we were at Downtown Disney having dinner at the Rainforest Cafe, we managed to sneak in a few minutes at the always awesome T-Rex shop and restaurant, which is located near the stage and Lego store. Although I’ve yet to eat here, I hear the food is decent. One thing I know for sure [...]

    A Night with Atlas at the Rainforest Cafe

    A Night with Atlas at the Rainforest Cafe

    I’ve been to the Rainforest Cafe just once, but somehow it’s been one of the most memorable dinners of my life. Maybe it was the way the lights go out when it starts storming inside, or the sound of the elephants and monkeys. Heck, maybe it’s the killer jungle scenery, I’m not sure.

    A Farewell Drink

    A Farewell Drink

    As our Kissimmee vacation winds down, Jared and I are reluctant to make our way home. We stop off to buy shoes at the Track Shack, and having my stride analyzed buys us nearly an hour. We veer off into Winter Park and wander up and down Park Avenue, popping in and out of the [...]

    Earl of Sandwich – Best Bang For Your Disney Buck

    Earl of Sandwich – Best Bang For Your Disney Buck

    Eating in the Kissimmee area is not cheap. We don’t have the luxury of street meat or other vendors from which to grab a cheap bite while vacationing.  Almost everyone here is charging as much as they can for food because most of their customers are on vacation and don’t have a choice but to [...]

    Celebration Town Tavern: For New England Seafood in Central Florida

    Celebration Town Tavern: For New England Seafood in Central Florida

    A vacation cannot begin on an empty stomach. No matter where we’re going or when we arrive, one of the very first things my husband and I do when get there is eat. Our whirlwind tour of the Kissimmee area was no exception.  Although technically checked in to our hotel, we still had our luggage [...]

    Downtown Kissimmee has a lot to offer

    Each year Kissimmee is swamped with visitors from around the globe. With so many rental villa communities, hotels and condos, coupled with the central location, Kissimmee is a tourism hot-spot.  However, I’d wager that only a fraction of these visitors head downtown in Kissimmee. Historic Downtown Kissimmee is a beautiful mix of local shops, specialist [...]

    Dining with a dinosaur

    Its not often you can dine with a dinosaur or mingle with a mammoth, but that is exactly what we did today at one of Downtown Disney’s most recent additions.  At the T-Rex cafe you are transported back to the age of the dinosaur as you eat in this amazing place.  To say it has a [...]
