By Christina Thomas 16 Comments

These Restaurants, Bakeries, and Shops owned and run by female chefs in Orlando deserve your attention. Your Taste Buds Will Thank You.

“Who Run The World? Girls!“

Beyonce knows a thing or two about running the world of entertainment but these women chefs and entrepreneurs are the ones running and rockin’ Orlando’s food scene.

They are some of my favorite female chefs, food’preneurs, and restaurant owners in Orlando who inspire me with not only their fabulous food but with their passion, drive, determination, and kick-ass attitude. I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing many of them for magazine articles over the years. And, each and every time I chat with them, I leave inspired and reminded of how much I love what I do.

They’re running small businesses and growing them successfully. So regardless of whether it’s “Women Rock Day” (January 3rd) “Women’s History Month” (March), “International Women’s Day” (March 8), “American Business Women’s Day” (September 22), Small Business Saturday (Saturday after Thanksgiving) or any day, I highly recommend a visit to these Orlando restaurants and eateries. Not simply because they are run by fierce, talented, and passionate women. But because they serve fantastically inventive drool-worthy food.

B Cupcakes

At B Cupcakes, following guidance- counselor-turned-baker Sheila Norton’s directive to “B Sweet, B Happy, B You” is easy. The challenge though is choosing from 20-plus decadent cupcake flavors on display in her cute bakery in Apopka. The intoxicating aromas of fresh baked goodies greet you at the door and put you in a particular trance where you simply want everything you see before you! 

The wildly popular choice is “The Elvis” – my favorite – a banana cupcake with peanut butter cream cheese frosting, dipped in chocolate ganache and sprinkled with sea salt. Don’t pass on the sweet potato cupcake — her grandmother’s recipe — topped with cinnamon buttercream and a hint of nutmeg. But the booze-infused 21 and over variety: Rum Snowball, Kahlua and Baileys cupcakes are sure to bring the party. With a glass of chilled milk, it doesn’t get any better. And if you can’t decide, get a variety pack of mini cupcakes. Read all about this delightful bakery and get to know Sheila in this article.

Bird of Paradise

*As of March 2020, Bird of Paradise closed at East End Market, however, Emily reopened in New Smyrna Beach.

Emily Rankin is the entrepreneurial force behind Bird of Paradise. A clean eating, health-conscious eatery with loads of Florida flavor. For years she’s been a valuable contributor to Orlando’s local culinary movement. Now she’s transformed her corner space at East End Market into a bright, Instagram-worthy homage to the foodie paradise that is Florida. She even painted the tropical mural on the wall herself.

Her inventive menu suits all diets, from keto to vegan, with local sourced, often certified organic, produce and local raised proteins. She tells me it’s the way her and her family eats regularly so it made sense she serve that to her customers. She is passionate about supporting local and the “food is medicine” approach. Her goal is for guests to feel good when they leave. And believe me, I did!

She serves the type of food I wish I could eat every day. In fact, it’s the type of food I SHOULD eat every day.

After dining on creamy avocado and coconut dip, and hearty shrimp and tempeh rice and veggie bowls, I wished I lived closer to East End Market (or that she expanded into more locations!). I would happily give Emily all my money to feed me regularly.

I loved the crisp veggies with the dip. But she doesn’t judge if you go for the chips option, because let’s face it. Some days you need chips and dip. The dip however is vegan, organic and guilt free. The citrusy wild Florida red snapper ceviche with plantains was perfectly tart, fresh and bright.

Choulala Fine Pastries

If you’re craving the prettiest French pastries, macarons, eclairs, and chou puffs, stop by Choulala Fine Pastries in Winter Park and Sarasota.

The French bakery is the brainchild of owner Elizabeth Ardizzoni’s love of French pastries that reminded her of home. Pastry Chef Stephanie Krupp, born in Oregon but raised in Orlando, formed a great collaboration with Elizabeth to create edible works of art.

Stop by and get a Maple Bourbon Paris Brest, a variety of chou puffs and macarons in over 15 flavors. Pair them with an affogato, a glass of Prosecco, Rose, or a Prosecco Float for a truly wonderful “Living Your Best Life” experience.

Go: Choulala Fine Pastries, 1786 SR 436, Winter Park. 340 N. Park Avenue, Winter Park. And 309 John Ringling Blvd, Sarasota, FL.

Jillycakes

Chef Jillian Hopke, winner of season six of the Food Network show “Cupcake Wars,” won Orlando’s cupcake scene in the process. She serves up all the classic flavors you expect. However, it’s her inventive cupcakes inspired by savory dishes that makes Jillycakes stand above the rest. Her Thanksgiving Dinner savory cupcake is an eye-opening, taste bud tempting surprise.

Her Sweet Potato Pie cupcake won the Dressed for Success Cupcake Challenge in 2018 when I was one of the judges, marking her 3rd win at the local fundraising event. (I can’t disclose who I voted for in first place but I think you can guess. wink wink)

Although cupcakes are her claim to fame. She also bakes impressive cakes for all occasions and has a strong local following for weddings, baby showers, gender reveals and more. She first opened her popular bakeshop in Winter Park in 2014. In early November 2019, she’s moved operations to ICON Park on International Drive. No doubt she will now capture the hearts of Orlando visitors from around the world.

Hopke also teaches baking classes at The Wheelhouse Market on special occasions so be on the lookout for those event announcements.

Go: Jillycakes, at ICON Park, 8375 International Dr, Orlando.

Juice Bar

Susan “Sue” Buttery is. the dynamic owner of Juice Bar in The Milk District of Orlando. The small juice shop peddles goodness in the form of fresh-made cold-pressed juices, wellness shots, and healthy bites. It’s one of the few juice bars in town that offers made-to-order juices. “You can get anything in your juice you would like!” Susan tells me.

Her story is inspiring. She comes from a strong restaurant background and has had a passion for this business since a very young age. After owning her own restaurant in downtown Orlando, she sold it and took time to travel. Upon returning to Orlando, frequent visits to Orlando Power Yoga (located next door) led to her opening Juice Bar.

The “You’re Kale-in it” green juice with kale, orange, green apple, and lemon is the most popular. I loved the “Sassy Grassy” with refreshing cucumber and mint. And the “Spice of Life” juice made with fresh-pressed beets, carrots, apple, spinach, orange, and turmeric is packed full of nutrients.

I had a great chat with Sue! For travel and entrepreneurial inspiration as well as more Must Eats from her menu, check out this article.

La Femme du Fromage

I stake claim to be the first person to ask Tonda Corrente, owner of La Femme Du Fromage, for her autograph. It was grand opening night of her popular cheese shop in East End Market back in 2013. And, it wasn’t even her book. That honor belonged to celebrated cheese expert Max McCalman, who proudly supported Tonda’s foray into the cheese world. I knew that night she was destined for great things. Soon thereafter the rest of Orlando and the world would find out about her passion for cheese.

The Women Chefs Who Rock Orlando Food Scene list includes 16 award winning and super popular restaurants and food shops including Tonda Corrente of La Femme du Fromage
Tonda Corrente and I being British! That was a fun themed night at La Femme du Fromage.

Since then, she’s been featured on The Cooking Channel, The Travel Channel and more. You can call her “The Mistress of Manchego. The Guru of Gouda. The Cheese Wiz of Orlando.” But kidding aside, she’s earned the accolades as the cheese expert of Orlando. Her shop could not be named more appropriate, she’s in every sense “The Cheese Lady.”

Tonda is an educator at heart and loves to share her knowledge of all things cheese. I learned from her how to make the most epic grilled cheese sandwich. Click here to find out the secret. Her Friday night Grilled Cheese Happy Hours where she pairs inventive grilled cheese sandwiches with local brews is quite popular. It’s even been named as one of the best in the country by USA Today!

I’ve also learned how to create surprising pairings of wine, cheese and chocolate from her and The Tasty Trio (comprised by equally inspiring Jill Ramsier of Quantum Leap Winery and Lisa Wilk of Orlando Uncorked and TasteCookSip.com.) Don’t miss their tasting events and seminars at Epcot and Quantum Leap Winery through the year.

Go sample artisanal cheeses from around the world on a beautiful charcuterie and cheese board and then take home more to enjoy. Her catering options are fantastic. Keep an eye out for her next Supper Club Dinner. Imagine a sumptuous multi-course feast where cheese is included in every course!

I’m also excited for her next venture – A cool wine, cheese and dessert restaurant in the North Quarter District. Sounds epic!

Major’s Project Pop!

Popcorn fans nationwide have gotten to know my favorite Orlando-made Major’s Project Pop thanks to some wonderful news stories and magazine features highlighting black-owned businesses. It’s important to get to know the inspiring entrepreneur behind the small and mighty company, Chauniqua Major-Louis. We all know her as “Major.”

Photo provided by Project Pop

Major’s Project Pop is popcorn with a purpose. It’s a little sweet, a little salty, all vegan, and all good. A fresh take on kettle corn using carefully-selected organic ingredients, including a bold virgin coconut oil that lingers on your palate.  

Organic non-GMO kernels are popped in small batches with the perfect combination of organic vegan cane sugar and Himalayan pink salt to create a light and balanced flavor profile. Only vegan ingredients are used. And absolutely no preservatives!

Get to know Major and her inspiring story in this article. Order Major’s Project Pop online and get it shipped nationwide.

New General

Tracy Liffey and Christine Mitchell opened New General off Park Avenue in Winter Park in 2017. Inspired by the General Stores of years ago, it’s a hybrid retail store and cafe. However, this one features a much more modern take. Serving trendy avocado toast, poke bowls, baked goods from local shops and a killer coffee program featuring local Lineage Coffee.

Liffey and Mitchell noticed the reemergence of general stores — and utilized each of their knowledge bases (Liffey in retail and Mitchell in the food industry) to bring it to Winter Park. They share a minimalist “quality over quantity” philosophy and strive to offer useful and beautiful products made locally.

OrlanDough

Liz Doerr’s doughnuts are some of the most sought-after in Orlando. The name “Orlan-Dough” is not only catchy, but it’s also rather appropriate. They’ve been named “Critics Choice” best doughnuts in Orlando by Orlando Sentinel in 2019. You can only find them at pop-up locations and events around town. From coffee shops to malls, East End Market, and more. They can be tough to pin down. When you do, don’t miss the opportunity. I first tried these glorious spheres of heaven at New General’s anniversary event. The S’mores and Lavender Latte donuts were to die for.

One look at her Instagram account and I think you’ll be drooling too. Follow on social and check website calendar to see where you can get your hands on these delicious treats. They also do quite a bit of catering and even host beer and doughnut pairing events with Orlando Brewing. There’s a doughnut for everyone on the menu, including vegan and gluten free, raised and old fashioned. Cakes and macarons too!

Go: OrlanDough, pop up locations around town.

Pom Pom’s Teahouse & Sandwicheria

To say that Pom Pom’s is just a sandwich and tea shop would be severely underestimating the culinary prowess of chef/owner Pom Moongauklang. To say she makes some of the best sandwiches in town, is much more on point.

Born and raised in Thailand, she professionally trained as a pastry chef and worked in some of the best restaurants in New York. All simply because she considered it a challenge. Although her popular late-night restaurant has been open since 2005, she is constantly coming up with creative sandwiches packed full of flavor and tea blends to accompany them. Chatting with her, you can’t help but feel her passion for food.

This is Pom. She’s the lady to see about a killer sandwich and tea combo at Pom Pom’s Teahouse and Sandwicheria

Every day is Thanksgiving Day at Pom Pom’s with her famous “Mama Ling’s Thanksgiving” sandwich. A perfectly layered cake of a sandwich with turkey, Gouda, stuffing, ginger cranberry chutney, mashed potatoes, cream cheese with a side of gravy. In fact, she once shared her secret for a well-built sandwich: all the ingredients must spread to touch all four corners of the bread so that each bite is the perfect bite of bread and filling.

The Chez G Sandwich with ooey-gooey smoked Gouda Mac and Cheese and Chorizo is out of this world. Soups and desserts of the day are always a must order. The restaurant is open 24 hours on weekends.

Reyes Mezcaleria

I’ve been a big fan of Chef Wendy Lopez and her creative cooking since she opened Tapa Toro, one of my favorite Spanish restaurants in Orlando. Now, she fully uses the influences of her Mexican roots to present an elevated menu at Reyes Mezcaleria.

The Women Chefs Who Rock Orlando Food Scene list includes 16 award winning and super popular restaurants and food shops including Wendy Lopez and Sue Chin of Reyes Mezcaleria

Located in the North Quarter District or Orlando. North of Downtown Orlando, the Mexican joint goes beyond tacos (although those are as tasty as any you’ll find in Mexico City) Wendy and Reyes are the real deal. Dishes like Whole Fish Huachinango Veracruz, Chile Relleno and Pork Chop Pibil will impress you.

Reyes Mezcaleria is owned by Sue Chin, together with restaurateur husband Jason Chin (who also own the fabulous Osprey Tavern and Seito Sushi in Baldwin Park). While Chef Wendy wows your taste buds, Sue ensures you feel right at home.

Sue is a talented interior designer with an eye not only for aesthetics but also for ultimately the most important quality of restaurant design, how it makes you feel. The place is not only incredibly Instagrammable, you want to actually sit and enjoy the ambience for hours.

Se7en Bites

Trina Gregory-Propst and wife Va Propst have created two of Orlando’s most calorie-worthy restaurants: Se7en Bites and Sette Italian. Although, Sette unfortunately closed in 2020, their most popular dishes make regular appearances at Se7en Bites. It’s safe to say they’ve put their culinary mark on this town and are helping spread the gospel that “Orlando has good food!”

Se7en Bites, a southern comfort food, casual eatery featuring savory and sweet goodness is located in the heart of The Milk District. It’s been featured on Food Network’s “Diners, Drive-In, and Dives”, Travel Channel, and numerous others. If you’re wondering if the wait in line for a table is worth it. Local Orlandoans will tell you, it is! The place is a well-oiled machine and the line actually moves fairly quickly. Breakfast, brunch, lunch, is all good here!

The “Seventh Trimester” buttermilk garlic biscuit topped with 5-cheese mac n’ cheese, smoked bacon, fried egg and potato chips was the first thing I tried at Se7en Bites over 5 years ago and it’s still my most favorite indulgence on the menu.

Milk and Cookies, made for adults with the addition of white chocolate liqueur, is the afternoon treat I didn’t know I needed in my life. The olive oil lemon cake is pure heaven. Frosted with lemon-mascarpone buttercream, this was one dessert I did not want to share with the table.

Sister Honey’s

Evette Rahman is the owner and baker extraordinaire behind the award-winning, Sister Honey’s Bakery in the SoDo District of Orlando. She’s won multiple cooking competitions including being named the World Dessert Champion, twice! She’s been featured on the Food Network, included in the Family Circle Hometown Cooking Cookbook, and in the American Pie Council’s America’s Best Pies cookbook.

Take one bite of any of her cakes and pies and you’ll taste why she’s so deserving of all the accolades. My favorites are her coconut cream cake, Ruby rum pound cake, and pistachio cake. But I guarantee you’ll have your own favorites because they’re all so good.

Read more about Evette in this article. She had so much to share about the sweet inspiration for Sister Honey’s, as well as cooking, travel, and entrepreneurship inspiration.

Stasio’s Italian Deli and Market

This is a family business thru and thru. And as all families, mom runs the show! Maria Palo and her husband Louie have been in the restaurant business for decades. Their newest venture, Stasio’s Italian Deli and Market, now actively involves their children. I’m so thrilled I follow “Biggie” from Deli Fresh Threads because thanks to him, I discovered this local gem (as well as many other great sandwich shops in Orlando). Maria and her daughter Dianna are the ones to chat with and get all their recommendations. Maria is happy to feed you, as all Italian moms are! Dianna gets right down to business of making it happen.

The Deli Counter is where the magic is at. Order enormous sandwiches, fresh sliced Italian cured meats, sausages, cheeses, pasta salads, antipasto, and more. The rolls are made in-house and that makes a world of difference. You can grab one of the few seats at the counter and enjoy a cappuccino and Italian pastry or dessert.

Always a good time at the deli counter!

You’ll find shelves packed with Italian goodies, from pasta to cheeses, pickled and jarred vegetables, sauces, olive oils and more. Perfect place to pick up a specialty item to enhance your Italian dinners at home.

On my first visit, I ordered “The Stasio” because you always order the namesake special on your first visit. It didn’t disappoint. Loaded with prosciutto, hot cappicola, mild sopressata, fresh mozarella, roasted peppers, red onion drizzled with white balsamic vinaigrette is the Italian sub of my dreams. Dare I say, this is my favorite place in Orlando for a great Italian sub? (Sorry Publix!)

On my next visit, I sampled the Pork Sausage and Broccoli Rabe, perfect mix of spicy and slightly bitter.

The Melenzani with eggplant, spinach, roasted red pepper, marinated tomatoes and fresh mozzarella is another winner.

Swine & Sons Provisions

Chef Alexia Gawlak together with husband Rhys, has turned Swine & Sons into a must for anyone looking for honest to goodness good food, charcuterie and inventive catering. They make everything in house or source from small producers.

Their Florida Shrimp Roll Sandwich is a favorite with Key West pink shrimp topped with fennel, arugula, citrus segments, fines herbs, and citrus vinaigrette. Housemade pickles on the side are a must!

Tapa Toro & Taverna Opa

Two of the best restaurants with International flair in Orlando are appropriately located on International Drive: Tapa Toro and Taverna Opa. The driving force behind them? Chef Katerina Coumbaros, together with husband Vassilis, does it all. Her Greek heritage and her passion for the business shows in the attention to every detail from menu to decor to entertainment. These restaurants are as fun as she is.

Taverna Opa at Pointe Orlando recently celebrated its 13th anniversary and continues to be a local favorite for authentic Greek cuisine and a fun atmosphere. Nightly belly dancing, high-energy dance music, and napkins thrown in the air always make it a fun place to celebrate! Even at home!

When I’m craving tapas and fun cocktails, Tapa Toro at Icon Park is at the top of the list. Sit outdoors with a view of the spectacular Orlando Eye or indoors at the Paella Pit. Nightly flamenco dancers combined with the authentic menu keep your dreams of traveling to Spain alive.

Chef Michelle Hulbert, Maker of Sweet Things

Pastry Chef and Dessert Queen Extraordinaire Michelle Hulbert deserves special mention on my list.

Her chocolate peanut butter pie and s’mores ice cream sandwich were one of the reasons I hosted my wedding at K.

Very Special Mentions: Women Chefs Pioneers of Orlando’s Culinary Scene

A list about kick ass female chefs in Orlando would not be complete without Chef Julie Petrakis, co-creator of The Ravenous Pig and Chef Kathleen Blake of The Rusty Spoon. They have both been recognized with James Beard Award nominations and have been an integral part of the growth of Orlando’s culinary scene. Some may say, they have paved the way for many others in town.

Both Petrakis and Blake, and countless other talented chefs in Orlando, were also mentored by two time James Beard Award winner Chef Melissa Kelly of Primo Italian Restaurant at JW Marriott. You could say Chef Kelly is the OG of women chefs in Orlando. She’s based in Rockport Maine where the first Primo is located and visits the Orlando location through the year.

Although Chef Julie Petrakis is not hiding in the kitchen of The Ravenous Pig quite as much on a day to day, her creative influence is felt across their various restaurant ventures (including The Polite Pig, Cask & Larder). If you have the opportunity to enjoy her dishes and chat with her at special charity events like Cows N Cabs and others around town, take it. She’s absolutely delightful.

The Women Chefs Who Rock Orlando Food Scene list includes 16 award winning and super popular restaurants and food shops including Julie Petrakis of The Ravenous Pig

Chef Kathleen Blake sold her award-winning The Rusty Spoon restaurant earlier in 2019 much to the collective woe of Orlando foodies. Since then she’s embarked on what she calls a “year of living dangerously.” And what a delicious journey it has been to follow on her Instagram account @chef4alls.

Florida Restaurant and Lodging Association

From taking part in an epic “Diva Dinner” with mentor and friend Chef Melissa Kelly, to the James Beard Chef Action Summit, to co-hosting dinners with Chef Kevin Fonzo of La Tavola, Kathleen shows no signs of slowing down. I just hope she opens another eatery here in Orlando because I miss her genuine farm to table goodness. And her red deviled eggs, were seriously the best ever.

Got any other Women Chefs in Orlando to add to this list?

By all means, this list is not complete. There are more rockin’ women chefs that I intend to add, but I need to gather more info. For the sake of publishing this post, please consider this the first installment. I will update it so please bookmark it, pin it and save it for later.

Do you have a favorite female restaurant owner, chef or food’preneur in Orlando I should add to the list? Please share in the comments.

I hope this list inspires you to support Orlando’s women chefs and entrepreneurs. Their small businesses are big on flavor and passion! Plus, women who support women and raise each other up are my kind of women. Food with a side of inspiration is always so much tastier. Enjoy!

Go #MakeSomedayHappen one delicious bite, sip and trip at a time.

Cheers!

    Hello. Great article on the newer female chefs that I can’t wait to check out! Also great mention of Kathleen Blake and Julie Petrakis, but did you know that they both came from Primo in Orlando under two-time James Beard Award winner Melissa Kelly??? She was the chef who pioneered the farm to table concept in Orlando. Primo is a hidden gem of this town. Great article I just feel she should’ve gotten more credit for the female chef movement here.

      Thank you for highlighting Chef Melissa Kelly! She’s a legend and definitely deserves the credit. I wish she was based here year-round. I first installment of this article was focused on chefs who are based in Orlando and impacting our food scene day to day.

    Definitely the Executive Chef at Santiago’s Bodega, Naomi Freeman. Naomi used to work at Se7enbites as Trina Gregory-Propst’s Sous Chef and she is as amazingly talented as she is humble and low key. She is the only female Executive Chef within their company and has been in the culinary industry for over 20 years, A Le Cordon Bleu graduate, a well-rounded chef and a fantastic human! She recently joined forces with Trina and Kathleen Blake for a delicious Dine Out with Pride, which was a great success. She is a little hidden gem that definitely needs to be acknowledged!

Next Level Avocado Toast! 🥑 Do you love to brun Next Level Avocado Toast! 🥑 Do you love to brunch? Here’s a fun & healthy recipe using #FreshFromFlorida veggies! 
I’m totally hooked on using Florida sweet potatoes instead of bread after I made “Everything But The Bagel Sweet Potato Toast with smoked salmon (the recipe on the blog) , I had to make a Sweet Potato Avocado Toast and it was amazing! It’s so good I did not miss the bread! 
Super easy to make! 
1. Thin slice sweet potatoes and bake in 450F oven for 15-20 minutes or use an air-fryer 
2. Top with guacamole or sliced avocado (I did both!) 
3. Top with a variety of fresh toppings: I used pickled radishes, grape tomatoes, arugula, cabbage, sweet peppers, pickled onions, & cilantro all grown in Florida! 
4. I added Kalamata olives and you can also add a fried egg!Have fun with a variety of toppings!
Pro Tip: Set up a Sweet Potato Toast Bar with a variety of toppings and host an easy brunch for friends.
Look for the "Fresh From Florida" label on products in your grocery store or ask your produce department manager for Florida produce.

Homemade Potato Chips for Brunch? Yes, Please! 🥔 
More than 2,000 varieties of potatoes are grown in Florida, so I figured I'd make homemade potato chips with a few different kinds. I used @lmcompanies Gold Potatoes and Blue Sky Farms Purple Potatoes and Red Potatoes (which I actually dug up myself during the #FFVAFarmTour hosted by @flafruitandveg @freshfromflorida & @agcommunicatorsfl @ufifas_solutions & @stjohns_ag 
Fresh always tastes better! Each potato has its own unique flavor and texture which you can appreciate tasting side by side. It was so easy to make potato chips in the oven, you won't go back to the bag of chips! (it's better for you too!) 
1. Scrub the potatoes well and pat dry with a paper towel
2. Thin slice potatoes carefully with a mandolin
3. Lightly toss or spray with avocado oil, sprinkle fresh cracked salt & pepper 
4. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet - make sure potato slices are in a single layer and not touching
5. Bake in 400F oven for 20 minutes (turn over halfway through)
Set up your Florida Potato Chips Bar with a variety of dips and #FreshFromFlorida veggies for toppings. Add a poached or sunny-side-up egg and brunch is served! Guaranteed everyone will love creating their own messy pile of Florida potato chips! 
Toppings ideas:
- "Everything But The Bagel" dip (see my previous post for the recipe)
- Guacamole
-  Sweet peppers
- Radishes
- Arugula
- Grape tomatoes 
- Poached or Sunny Side Up Egg
- Flaky Salts (I used Smoked Maldon Salt)
Look for the "Fresh From Florida" label on products in your grocery store or ask your produce department manager for Florida produce. Have some fun exploring all the varieties of potatoes you can find.

Their tasting room and winery in Dundee, Oregon is a Must Visit! Located less than an hour’s drive from Portland, it’s a gorgeous space and a perfect first stop on a day of wine tasting in the heart of Willamette Valley. 
On my last trip, I enjoyed the “Sparkling Selection” Tasting Flight - complimentary as a wine club member ($45 retail)
2019 Estate Reserve Brut Rose, Willamette Valley
2017 Spirit Hill Blanc de Blancs, Eola-Amity
2018 Knudsen Blanc de Blancs, Dundee Hills

My friend Brooke & I were invited by Focus Features to celebrate the release of “BOOK CLUB: THE NEXT CHAPTER” - in theaters now - the sequel to the 2018 hit starring the legendary quartet of Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Candice Bergen, & Mary Steenburgen. 
The four best friends take their book club to Italy for the fun girls trip they never had. It’s hilarious and inspiring! Kind of like my motto Go #MakeSomedayHappen 😉 
Have you visited Quantum Leap Winery? It’s FLORIDA’S ONLY SUSTAINABLE WINERY!
They partner with sustainable and organic growers in notable wine growing regions around the world - I.e. Italy, France, California, Oregon, Washington… NOT Florida grapes! - to produce high quality wines with a reduced carbon footprint at a great value. This is truly world-class wine right here with a beautiful tasting room.
We enjoyed a tour of the facility, located in Orlando’s Mills 50 District, learned about their sustainable practices and enjoyed a wonderful tasting session. A Must Do for any wine lover in Orlando!

We also got a taste of new dishes coming to the menu this summer - all delicious, lighter fare with something for everyone! The culinary team led by Exec Chef Mark O’Neill & Exec Sous Gary Cooke is top notch. This is not your usual Irish pub fare.

Celebrate Earth Day, every day! I learned so much Celebrate Earth Day, every day! I learned so much during our tour of Florida’s Tri-County Agricultural Area with @flafruitandveg sponsored by @freshfromflorida & @agcommunicatorsfl - One of the most surprising and fun experiences of the entire trip was…. THE POTATOES! 
🥔 Did you know over 2,000 varieties of potatoes are grown in Florida? 
Let me know in the comments which of these fun facts surprises you the most:
🥔 FL Potatoes are in season! In other parts of the country, potatoes are grown in summer & harvested in fall. In FL they plant end of winter and harvest in early summer. 
🥔 Look for FL Potatoes in your grocery store & “Fresh From Florida” logo on the label. Supporting our local farms tastes better!
🥔  @ufifas_solutions The UF/IFAS Ag Extension Center launched a new potato breeding program to discover which potatoes will be the most productive for Florida growers.
“Each year, scientists evaluate more than 2,000 potato varieties at the UF/IFAS HAEC. With the breeding program, researchers expect to evaluate an additional 7,500 to 15,000 potential new varieties every year.” 😮 
Isn’t that crazy? How many varieties can you name?
🥔  I got to hand-pick Purple sweet potatoes, purple potatoes, fingerlings, red potatoes, yellow potatoes, & even tried a low carb potato called “Sun Lite” (pictured is Blue Sky Farms owner Danny Johns, 4th generation farmer)
🥔  The skin is very fragile & easily peels off. In order for potatoes to be harvested, they must kill the plant and let them dry out to withstand the harvesting & packaging process & still look pretty. 
🥔  Potatoes are grown in different sizes. Pictured is Adam Lytch, Operations Manager of L&M Farms showing us a little creamer!
🥔 Thank you Chef Justin Timineri, Florida’s Chef Ambassador, who prepared a delicious lunch! Check out his recipes and what’s in season at FollowFreshFromFlorida.com 
Thank you to local family farms @lmcompanies, @taterfarms, @smithsfarmfresh and #BlueSkyFarms who graciously hosted us!
What an incredible experience!

It’s so tough to pick a favorite! It was not eas It’s so tough to pick a favorite! It was not easy judging the @orlandohospitalityalliance OHA Local & Social Foodie Choice Awards. I seriously enjoyed every bite from all 6 pop-ups / food trucks and I highly encourage you to follow all of them…

🇵🇷 When you want next level Puerto Rican food:
 @thebrujastable (say hi to Corina)
Can I tell you how much I loved meeting Corina, the owner? I can tell she cooks with so much passion. I loved her Butter Crisp Cups with Mojo Pernil, pineapple salsa, avocado crema, cheese, tajin & lime. It was so light yet full of flavor. Caribbean food is often heavy and filing but this I could eat every day. Now I need to go back for her Tostones Tacos and Loaded Yuca Fries!
Which ones would be your favorite? 💥#407Day is coming up! Perfect time to #GoEpicOrlando #EatLocal #ShopLocal and #MakeSomedayHappen

I was invited to judge the @orlandohospitalityalliance OHA Local & Social Foodie Choice Awards and it was so tough to pick a winner! It was my first time trying these local food trucks and I enjoyed everything I sampled. 
🥇 @parlor_kitchen - Chef Ryan took 1st place with a showstopping Ube Waffle - this pop-up is destined for fine dining brick and mortar! Purple Sweet Potato mochi waffle, stuffed with browned butter sage cookie, topped with fire-roasted marshmallow fluff & cinnamon glaze. WOW!!
🥈 @overthebordertaqueria - won 2nd place with a Loaded Baked Potato with cheese & Al Pastor carne asada. Super flavorful! Owner Samuel comes from San Diego bringing authentic Tijuana taqueria goods to Orlando!
🍕 @letsdoughit.pizza - Loved the 3 Little Pigs Pizza with pulled pork, pork belly, pork rib meat, provolone, pico, ancho Carolina sauce & candied Jalapeno. Owner AJ has got those brick oven pizzas on lock! 
🍔 @treehousetruck - Guava Pina Grilled Smash Burger. Loved the Guava BBQ sauce & owner Susie is awesome (she hails from Raglan Road many years ago and you know I love that place!) 
🇯🇲 @paulasjamaicancuisine - owner Paula will spice up your life with killer Jerk Chicken Wings and super creamy Mac N Cheese! 
🇵🇷 @thebrujastable - Loved the Butter Crisp Cups with Mojo Pernil, pineapple salsa, avocado crema, cheese, tajin & lime. Super light and flavorful, I wanted more! Owner Corina was a sweetheart! Everything is made from scratch including her spice blends using her Puerto Rican family recipes. 
Thank You OHA for inviting me & @pourchoicetaphouse for hosting us! Such a fun lineup of beers, mead, cider & wine on tap which you can pour and taste by the oz.

OH YES! The freaks come out for @gideonsbakehouse OH YES! The freaks come out for @gideonsbakehouse - we don’t mind standing in line, virtual or real, for Gideon’s limited flavors each month! And March’s flavors from Signore Pipistrello benefitting @lubeebatconservancy are definitely ones I hope make a  comeback. 🦇 
🦇 The (not so) Evil Genius Steve Lewis did it again with the Fruit Bat Cookie - Raspberry Dark Coffee Cake Cookie. A gorgeous Triple Chocolate Chip cookie layered with raspberry jam and covered in Crunch Butter Crumbs and Raspberry Sugar. It was gooey and crunchy and all kinds of decadent. I normally pace myself and eat my Gideon’s cookies over a few days - this one I devoured in one afternoon! and I don’t feel one bit of guilt, although my diet is out the window! LOL!
🍪 Peanut Butter Chocolate Swirl, an epic combo of Peanut Butter dough swirled with velvety Triple Chocolate dough. Topped with Chocolate Chips, Peanut Butter Chips & House-made Candied Peanuts. YUM!
⁣☕️ Pipistrello’s Cold Brew was a perfect pairing! Nitro Cold Brew with Chocolate and a dash of Cinnamon, only available at Gideon’s in Disney Springs.
⁣Sadly I missed the PB Chocolate Swirl Cake this month. Be sure to check the posted cake slice schedule on @gideonsbakehouse stories highlights. 
🙏 Steve please bring back Signore Pipistrello this year! 
🎂 Can’t wait to see what Gideon’s has in store for April! It’s my birthday month and I’m ready to celebrate with a Gideon’s Cake Slice, Cookie and Cold Brew Trio!
