My husband and I recently had an overnight stay in Orlando en route to visit our daughter in South Florida and to attend her Junior Recital.
I have two favorite things to do in Orlando, and at this point in my life, they don’t include visiting the mouse. I highly recommend hitting the outlet malls and visiting Emeril’s. I’ve only eaten in the dining room at Emeril’s once, to celebrate another daughter finishing the coursework for her master’s degree (you may need to book reservations days in advance). We usually just sit at the bar. Sometimes, we’ll have an entree, but often it’s just an appetizer and dessert. The food is always amazing and inspiring.
On this visit, I had a to-die-for mushroom soup and the butcher’s platter. My husband had gumbo and Emeril’s salad. We split this huge, intensely flavored slice of banana cream pie. 🙂

Wow that’s an impressive pie! Maybe Emeril will give you the recipe if you tell him you’re an HCB’er! Looks like you’re both having a fantastic time. It’s been so long since I’ve been to Florida I probably wouldn’t recognize Orlando.
Have a safe trip.

yum. that pie is calling to me! I went to Emeril’s in New Orleans and my husband and I sat at the seats that ring around the kitchen so you could see all the action, great meal and great time.
thanks so much for your comment on my last post, it’s crazy how life is sometimes.
