We were chatting to a Celebration resident and she told us that her favourite beach was Ormonde Beach and having heard that we could not wait to try it.
While I would not have it as my favourite beach there is an interesting restaurant there which serves deep fried ice cream! ! !
Alfies is an unprepossessing restaurant that will be celebrating its 25th anniversary next year and is located at 1666 Oceanshore Boulevard.
Can I suggest setting off early and hitting this restaurant for breakfast? You do not have to rise super early since breakfast is served til noon.
There are a selection of Eggs Benedict (crab, veggie, or sausage) or if you are going to be unadventurous the good old traditional variety with ham.
Of course there are the great American traditional breakfast plates with eggs, bacon, sausage and french toast or even a low carb omelette (but really, aren' t you on holiday? )
Your children can order scrambled egg, sausage, apple(! ) and pancake for only $3. 50.
Lunch is served from 11. a. m. and although you are less likely to eat at lunchtime this meal is served til 6 p. m. so may be a good idea to have an early meal before you head back up the road to your villa.
Anyway there is a good mix of chicken, seafood, steak and pastas and these all come with a couple of sides.
If you are in for this particular session ask about the daily drinks specials.
After 6 p. m. dinner is served: there sre a variety of starters to choose from but undoubtedly the entrees are the main event!
I like the stuffed tilapia(which we often barbie at the villa) but it is hard to resist the seafood combo which comes deep fried or broiled. This came in at less than $20; what would you pay for that at home?
The combos are popular in my family and there are 6 to choose from inc steak and shrimp and pork and shrimp (shrimp are American size! )
If it is especially hot then a salad is in order and the salads here are generous. Or you may fancy a sandwich? Of course not your typical British sandwich but a meal in themselves.
The sandwiches come with a potato, or salad or various other sides. Among the choices are the ever popular Reuben, chicken or a less usual Bison Burger.
With drinks and tips your meal will come to around $20 to $40.
Now for the best part; you can wend your way back and no one has to cook and no one has to wash up!
