The Irish Soda Bread is the Best Located in the center of Disney Springs, Irish entertainment and food is offered in a “Disneyesque” style. Many times there is Irish Step Dancing and a band playing. There is inside and outside seating. The place does fill up and sometimes you may need reservations for later seating. We have always enjoyed the…
Always Good This Cheesecake Factory is located in the store complex known as Downtown at the Gardens north on the Lake Victoria Gardens road. The establishment sits on a small pond with a beautiful fountain. Seating in the atrium or even the outside patio area will give you a view of the pond’s spurting fountain spray. We like to…
Superb Ambiance and Great Happy Hour We visited in the summer of 2012 and was impressed enough to return in 2015. Grill 66 & Bar overlooks the Intercostal, bridge and marina. The ambiance is impeccable. We enjoy the Happy Hour from 5:00 to 7:00 pm. There is a separate menu and reduced drink prices on selected drinks. Happy Hour…
A Few Tips about this Hotel We booked here in the summer of 2012 and were able to snag a tower view of the ocean and the Port of Everglades. There is no question the view was incredible. This year we came during the heart of tourist season and were able to get one of the last rooms along…

A fast flowing waterfall is nearby and there are several tables close to that attraction. There is plenty of room inside and inviting bar area too. My wife liked her Black Bean soup. I enjoyed…
Advantages and some Negatives As we live over a hundred miles from Miami and having to take an early flight out, we decided to book this hotel. The decision was due for the extended car parking offered by this Embassy. A shuttle will take you to the airport or even the port of Miami. We had Seri lead us to…
A Few Tips on Visiting the Only Conch Farm in the World Located on the southern end of Leeward Highway, the only Conch Farm in the world is easy to find. You will eventually hit a dirt road for a short while, but don’t let this discourage you from visiting. This was our second visit, first being in 2007. Unfortunately,…
A Great Salad Bar There appears to be two main grocery stores on the island, one being the IGA on Leeward Highway, and the other close to Salt Mills known as Graceway Gourmet. We did find cheaper “ice cream” products at IGA as well as a few other products. Going to any one of these grocery stores is a…

Our 2015 culinary experience was as good. The ambiance is exceptional along the patio. There is plenty of seating to view Grace Bay. The service was good and friendly.…
