In the past few weeks, I have been making trips to Orlando to care for my Mom. That gave me a great opportunity to try some new restaurants. I’ll be sharing what I’ve found over the next couple of weeks.

I stumbled upon Fresh To Order while looking for a healthy place to eat in Orlando. When I walked into this gem in the Waterford Lakes Town Center and saw the flame grill I knew I had found the right place. The menu had a good variety of choices – soups, salads, paninis, small & entree long plates & burgers. On my first visit I ordered the long plate version of Fire Grilled Chicken with balsamic Cabernet reduction and substituted a mixed green salad for the wheatberry rice. Delicious and satisfying. On my second visit I got the small plate of Blackened Lime Shrimp with Asian slaw & ranch dressing for dipping. Another flavorful dish. A small plate is 3/4 of the size of an entree and perfect for smaller appetites. I like that they have a variety of flavored teas and waters to choose from. I will definitely be back any time I’m in the area.
