Eating in the Orlando area

Downtown and its environs hold the pick of the locals'
eating
haunts; most visitors, however, head for International Drive's inexpensive all-day buffets and gourmet restaurants. There's a strict embargo on taking food into any of the theme parks, where the best restaurants are in
Epcot's World Showcase
- head for Japan, Morocco or Mexico.
