Have you participated in this year’s Magical Dining experience? If you’re not aware, from August 24 through September 30, Visit Orlando teams up with over 100 restaurants to offer three-course meals for prix-fixe meals for $35 where $1 from each meal is donated to Best Buddies and the Down Syndrome Association of Central Florida.
Magical Dining Month is a great time to get out and try restaurants that you may not have tried otherwise or even try other menu items at a place that you already go. Lauren and I were able to find few places we really enjoyed and also got some good recommendations for some spots to check out in the future.
Watch the vlog episodes below to see how our experiences went. Just remember…time is almost up!
1. Canvas Restaurant & Market
The Canvas restaurant menu features new American cuisine influenced by Florida’s Southern and Latin American roots. The item that stood out to us the most here was the Shrimp Mofongo. Oh…and don’t forget to ask for the crackers lol
Address: 13615 Sachs Avenue Orlando, FL 32827
2. Chroma Modern Bar + Kitchen
Chroma Modern Bar + Kitchen delivers a mix of elevated offerings created through small plates and an extensive bar menu. We really enjoyed their Guava and Goat Cheese Flatbread, Blue Crab and Artichoke Dip, Butterscotch Bread Pudding, and Banana Pudding.
