The food is delicious and seasoned to taste, you have to try dish of brussels sprouts, it had a sweet and light salty flavor. The restaurant was a small but elegant place but romantic for couples to enjoy and relax with dim lighting which met our expectations.

The overall restaurant looked clean and great for a date night. We weren't feeling too hungry so we ordered the following based on the waitress and our friend's recommendations: 1) Crispy Brussels sprouts 2) Duck Fat Corn Bread 3) House made pasta + sugo The crispy brussels sprouts were a bit undercooked and lacked flavor but if you prefer a less crispy Brussel sprout dish I would recommend it over the duck fat corn bread. The duck fat corn bread was disappointing. It was an odd combination of flavors that did not mix very well. The corn bread was mushy and the crisp Napa cabbage with the random ranch/spicy sauce combo did not pair well and left my mouth feeling confused. I had high expectations for their house made pasta as they had a pasta maker out for viewing. The pasta was overcooked and every bite was an interesting mix of flavors...some bites salty...some bites unseasoned. There was barely any meat present and overall we ended up not finishing our meal and wrapping up the night. The only good thing we had was the homemade soda that I did not get a picture of but I believe was the hibiscus one. Overall I would recommend this place for drinks but not dinner.

We were visiting Universal Studios in Orlando and decided to take the kids trick or treating for…read moreHalloween in Celebration, Florida. The advertisements looked like so much fun! This was the WORST trick or treating event ever for the kids. Beautiful city but so very stingy on candy. Homes that passed out candy were sporadically spaced and it was so crowded. There was a lot of walking and weaving around the crowds. Because of that we walked for an hour and a half to get 18 small pieces of candy. Really Celebration? My one son got two small pieces of individually wrapped jelly bellies. Million dollar homes and you can't even pass out decent candy? Shame on you. We had reservations at the Cuban restaurant however, decided not to go because we were so disappointed. We felt so bad we returned to the Hard Rock Hotel and bought the kids a fancy Halloween dessert at The Palm restaurant.

The current Mount Dora City Hall sits on top of a hill at 5th and Baker Streets but it is not Mount…read moreDora's first town hall. The original town hall was built in 1904 on the corner of 4th and 5th Avenues on the east side of Donnelly Street by volunteers with donated materials. This town hall existed until 1922 when a fire damaged it and most of the block. In the 1880's the land where the city hall now sits was owned by the Reverend Guller built a hotel called the Guller House. The Gullers sold it in 1889 and the property changed hands several times until the 1920's when Mr. Enoch Tompkins purchased the Guller House. He remodeled it and added columns to give it a colonial look. After that the building was known as the Colonial Inn. It was again sold several times and in 1929 Mount Dora leased the property for $1,000 a year, eventually buying it for $15,000 in 1931. City business was conducted in the building until 1963 when the building was deemed too outdated to be be functional. Architect Brandon Wald, was hired in the 1960's by the city to create a new building that looked as close to the Colonial Inn as possible while making the interior more functional for the city. The 1920's pillars were retained to decorate the front of the building. On May April 3, 1964. Mayor Jessie Wilmott, Governor Farris Bryant, and other government officials dedicated the new town hall. Although not a building from the 1920's, Mount Dora's City Hall looks like it came from that time period. Today it sits on top of the hill overlooking Donnelly Park and holding court over lovely historic downtown Mount Dora.
