A Spanish Surprise—Fine Tapas at Downtown Orlando’s Ceviche
It’s my fourth day in Orlando and I’m starting to understand that there’s more to dining here than theme park hot dogs and chicken fried steak. So far I’ve had excellent new Italian food and mind-blowing Latin-Asian fusion. Now I’m about to have another culinary revelation: Tapas at Ceviche (125 West Church Street, Orlando; 321-281-8140; Ceviche.com/Locations/CevicheOrlando) that’s like a little bit of Barcelona flown into downtown’s happening Church Street Station.

When my friend suggested Khyber Pass Kabob Restaurant (7467 Village Parkway, #9; 925-828-6000; KhyberPassKabob.com) and told me that it was a five-star restaurant on a popular review website located in a strip mall in Dublin, California I was definitely on high alert.
