    Passed Field House place when I was going to Urbain a few weeks ago. Looks like a standard sports bar but I'm sure crazy expensive since its in the Dellagio plaza in Dr Phillips

    Food recommendation please...

    Sit down/casual place. Family of 4, pregnant wife, two girls (6,2). Very Americanized. Very picky. Afraid to try new things. Preferably south/SW Orlando but that's not a must.

    lechnerd are you near I Drive? You could also do Yard House

    It's a chain but it should make her happy. Lots of beer for you.

    I noticed a lot of the intersections had small blue lights next to the traffic lights. Were those red light cameras?

    Also we got stuck on a toll on-ramp with no exact change and no change service available. After about a minute of honking behind us we simply kept driving without paying. Should I expect a bill in the mail?

    You’ll get a warning and a bill for the toll due for the first offense iirc

    Not exactly. The blue lights light up when the traffic light is red. So a cop who may not be able to see your traffic light but is in the intersection can see if you ran a red light.

    The rumor has always been that you can run three tolls a month without any issues.

    Whatever is considered new/popular/ best but not overly "weird" or "fancy" food. If they have fois gras in the menu it's a pass. we are already going to bull and bear one night. Need another.

    V&A is the nicest I believe. Hear California Grill is good. I enjoyed Citricos. Maybe head over to the Ritz and do Highball and Harvest or Whisper Creek, they have a working brewery and farm on site.

    The setting is very cool, and the drinks aren't bad. The Guac is top notch and made fresh right in front of you. The tacos were some of the worst I've ever had and I swore to god I'd never go back there. :laugh:

    You are in the Dr. Phillips area so that is a strong food area. Place called Vines has a great happy hour.
    What type of stuff do you like? Any food or drink prefs?

    Food ---- Anything with strong vegetarian options would be great. Mediterranean, Indian, etc. Mid-priced. And popsicles, of course.

    Fun ---- Anything involving animals...I know there are a shit ton of random types of little zoos, just sorting through them online

    Appreciate the help

    If you have a whole free day, I would recommend going down the the zoo in Sanford for animals and a ropes course, then doing downtown Sanford for food and drinks. Go to Willow tree which is a great "authentic" German restaurant, and there are now 2-3 breweries there along with numerous great hole in the wall bars.

    second this if you are up for the drive. Celery City Brewing is right behind Willow Tree and is the best brewery in that area, Sanford Brewing pretty good too.
