If you are looking for Mexican food one evening, PR's is your place. The Tex Mex food is great, and they have IMO the best frozen Margaritas in Orlando. Very casual, with active bar and outdoor seating.

If you're in the mood for Thai food while you're here, Napasorn is a great Mom & Pop (I can't say that in Thai) restaurant in downtown Orlando. Actually, I do know that Napasorn is Thai for Angel, the name of a server there (and owner's daughter). Parking can be a little challenging downtown, so you may want to consider Uber, Lyft, or Curb (the Taxi app)

Shopping
This is Orlando's "high end" mall, which stores like Gucci, Chanel, Rolex, and Louis Vuiton, to name a few. They also have popular anchors like Macy's and Bloomingdale's. And there are a number of great restaurants there as well: Capital Grill, Cheesecake Factory, and Brio Italian Bistro are my favorites

You can tell from the decor in our guest house that we are interested in Florida history, and Central Florida history in particular. Many of the artifacts and art pieces in our guest house we purchased at an auction at the Orange County Regional History Center. This museum occupies the old Orange County Courthouse, which is interesting in itself. If you are a history buff or maybe just like the kitschy side of Florida, you have to check this place out. It is located in the center of downtown, next to the Orange County Library. There is a city parking garage on East Central Blvd., across from the library.
