    Culvers Hamburgers

    Posted by Chef Andy to Food
    Culvers for Dinner

    A great hamburger with chili fries

    Our family vacations are based around food. We plan our trip around places to eat. Culvers made our list. This was in Gaylord, Michigan. The staff is incredible, the food excellent and I never order chili fries, but what the heck, I’m on vacation. Well after a long day in the hot sun, a long drive from Mackinaw City, we were seriouosly looking for a great meal. We had our first Culvers in Wisconsin and we would never have stopped if not for my best friends recommedation. We fell in love at the first bite. So when I found out that they had built one in Michigan, we hit it and were not disappointed. I have no pictures of White Castles, but we only stopped there like three times while in Chicago. I guess we were too busy eating and couldnt worry about picture taking. Yes, great fast food is what we crave on family trips. We are seriously lacking good food in Orlando, Florida. By the way, we hit the last Culvers in the Midwest in Indiana on our way back home from Chicago.

    Johnny’s Fillin Station Cafe

    Posted by Chef Andy to Food

    splash

    Took the family out for lunch the other day and decided to try someplace new. I have to admit, we are always on the look out for a good place to eat in the Lake Eola Area. We were going to try Anthony’s Pizza, but our clients suggested the fillin station. I have always heard of them, but we are never in that part of town. So opportunity arised and we ventured in. Amanda, our food server was very nice and was quite accommodating. We told her we were first timers and she quickly referred to us her favorites on the menu.

    My clients recommended the fried pickles, which Cindy and I quickly gobbled up. Of course the boys ordered fried mac and cheese . Tater tots are a family favorite, so when you douse them with cheese and real bacon bits, you cant go wrong.

    The music is loud, I must be getting old, however, varied with country for the dad, hip -hop for the boys and lots of flat screens. How can you go wrong? College basketball, goofy movies, CNN and local new, a regular buffet of television.

    The burgers were excellent. We ordered our favorites with Cindy ordering a patty melt. Where have all the patty melts gone? I ordered my burger with Texas Toast- perfectly toasted, I might add. The boys their usual. But in todays restaurant scene, the usual often becomes the unusual. Hot, flavorful and on time. Simple. No wonder they have been winning best burger since 1998, based on the old Foodie Award on the wall.

    A solid bar, restaurant and staff, witnessed by the constant flow of customers on a beautiful Orlando afternoon. Next time, we’ll try alfresco.

    The family verdict was that we will be back again. That’s saying alot!
