www.disney.com

Food & Wine Editors PickVictoria & Albert’s
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa

4401 Floridian Way
407-939-3463
disneyworld.com
"Perhaps Orlando’s priciest and most formal restaurant, Victoria & Albert’s isn’t the place to bring the kids—unless they like to eat Monterey Bay abalone with Meyer lemon and capers or guinea hen with morels and truffle foam. The often-changing prix-fixe menu ($115 per person) is an exceptional alternative to Disney’s many fast-food stands."

-- Food & Wine



Food & Wine Editors PickMing’s Bistro
1212 Woodward St.

407-898-9672.

"Ming’s is one of the few places in Central Florida offering Chinese delicacies like chicken feet and turnip cakes on its dim-sum laden carts. Don’t be scared off by the word bistro in its name: Ming’s is the real deal, with authentic food in a no-frills, fluorescent-lit dining room."

-- Food & Wine


Food & Wine Editors PickLac Viet Bistro
2021 E. Colonial Dr.

407-228-4000
lacvietbistro.com.


"For years, the stalwart Little Saigon was the place where Orlando’s growing Vietnamese population went for its pho fix. But Lac Viet Bistro, which opened in 2004 near Little Saigon in the city’s Colonialtown neighborhood, may be even better, serving dishes like ground pork tucked into rice-flour crêpes and a lotus-stem salad with fresh herbs."

-- Food & Wine

Food & Wine Editors PickHarmoni Market
2305 Edgewater Dr.
407-206-0033
harmonimarket.com

"Launched in 2006, this combination specialty-food market/restaurant is a great reason to visit the up-and-coming College Park neighborhood. Simple Mediterranean-inspired food reigns here, from flat breads topped with fig, blue cheese and bacon to roast pork sandwiches with Manchego cheese and tomato relish."

-- Food & Wine
Food & Wine Editors PickBlue Bistro and Grill
815 N. Mills Ave.
407-898-5660
bluebistroandgrill.com

"Floridian Jephanie Foster cooked her way around Chicago before returning to open this small restaurant on the outskirts of downtown Orlando. Her frequently changing, high-energy menu borrows flavors from around the world in dishes like grilled squid with kimchi relish and grilled romaine with chipotle-spiked vinaigrette."

"Brent Hernandez, the owner of this tiny, low-key bar in Winter Park, has built a beer list that could compete with almost any other in the country. There are plenty of Belgian beers, solid American craft brews like Ommegang and Allagash and even the pricey Swiss rarity Abbaye de Saint Bon-Chien, which is aged in barrels once used for wine and grappa."

-- Food & Wine

Food & Wine Editors PickInfusion Tea
1600 Edgewater Dr.
407-999-5255
infusionorlando.com

"A wall of rooibos and oolong in glass jars greets you when you step into Infusion Tea, the charming teahouse owned by Christina Cowherd and her husband, Brad. In April, they moved from a tiny shop down the block to this expansive space, which also houses a local designers’ co-op. For advice on which of the more than 75 teas to order, consult one of the friendly “tea experts.” And don’t leave without a scone slathered with cream and jam."
