We found Winter Park’s prettiest Indian cuisine dining spot, and the food? Delicious!

From the colorful cocktails to the vibrant dishes, Jala Fine Dining delivers a full sensory experience. The presentation is top notch.

Here’s what we ordered:
Pani Puri | Dragon Chicken | Vindaloo | Chicken Tikka | Cheese Naan | Electric Lemonade | The Rose | Kesar Pista Kulfi

Perfect for your next romantic date night or small group night out in Orlando. Tag your favorite foodie date and make plans for this week!

5k SU2C! We truly ran for the after party!

Yesterday was possibly the rainiest/muddiest for a 5k but we still had a fantastic time. Grateful for awesome coworkers that together for this.

Favorite postcards from our weekend getaway to Philadelphia - City of Brotherly Love!

It was our first time visiting together. We’ve each been there on our own and it was so fun sharing things we enjoy with each other.

We walked a ton (like 10 miles easily on Saturday), ate delicious foods along the way and just had a fantastic time exploring.

Thank you Go Wild Pass, easy two hour flight there and back.

Have you been to Philly? What’s your favorite thing there?

Osaka, what a memorable year to visit you!

Reminiscing on my time at Expo 2025 Osaka, a place where art, technology, nature, and human dreams collided under one overarching theme: Designing Future Society for Our Lives.

From the jaw-dropping Grand Ring, the world’s largest wooden architectural circle, to standing in front of a life sized Gundam that blur virtual and real, every corner had something inspiring.

I loved wandering through futuristic exhibits, catching the play of light and shadow, meeting the curious mascot Myaku-Myaku, and thinking about how we all fit into a “living lab” of the future.

A few takeaways:
• Innovation feels more magical when it’s grounded in life - health, nature, connection.
• The world is already building tomorrow… we just need to walk into it.
• Memories like these make me want to create, explore, connect.

Until next time, Expo, see you in 2030 in Saudi Arabia? Thanks for the memories!

And we paid with miles 💥… can nobody stop me today 🤣

There’s still some adventures/travels to enjoy this year but knowing we’re starting off 2026 visiting a new continent is making me all kinds of hype already. You better believe food will be a big focus of the trip too!

What are some trips you’ve got planned already?

Foodie Heaven in Ocoee!

Spent an evening at The Backyard and WOW, so many incredible food trucks all in one spot! From crave worthy bites to sweet treats, this place is a full on flavor playground 🍕🍣🍔🍗

Whether you’re here for lunch, dinner, or just a casual hangout with friends, it’s the spot to eat, sip, and vibe (they’ve got a self serve craft beer and wine wall). Highly recommend adding this to your plans!

📍 The Backyard – 2214 West Rd, Ocoee, FL 34761

🎥 Save this reel for when you’re planning your next foodie outing. In the comments tell us which food truck you’re trying first!

This is one tradition I hope to keep up with for many more years. Celebrating my dad’s birthday was always so fun, especially because it’s during Magical Dining here in Orlando.

He’s no longer with us… coming up on seven years actually 🥺… but it’s important for me to continue to celebrate him. Helps me keep his memories alive.

This year we chose here in Apopka. Here’s what we had:

Mom:
🦞 Chef Mike’s New England Lobstah Bisque Bowl
🦞 Lobster Mac & Cheese, sides: Vegetable of the Day & Creamed Spinach
🍰 Key Lime Pie Jar

Me:
🦐 Shrimp Cocktail
🐟 New England Seafood Bake, sides: French Fries & Hush Puppies
🍨 Grand Marnier Mousse

Noel was the sweetest! Hopefully you’ll be lucky enough to have her as your waitress when you visit.

Here’s how we did the perfect Orlando staycation 👇

✨ Epcot Food & Wine Festival
Tried: Flavored by Fire, Japan, France & Hawaii
✨ Overnight at the Waldorf Astoria
Hotel is stunning & our suite was so comfortable.
✨ Dinner at The Edison, Disney Springs
People watching, aimlessly wandering, & some shopping 😉
✨ Morning at Hollywood Studios
We even snuck in a ride!
✨ Lunch at Sanaa, Animal Kingdom Lodge
Bread service, animal spotting, what a great way to end the weekend.

Our pup had his own staycation at his favorite boarding place, and came home happy and tired!

Believe it or not it was our first Disney World staycation, and we loved playing tourists in our hometown. Can’t wait to do it again!

Pin this for your next local escape - no plane ticket required! 🌟
