"At Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, it's always been about Pleasing People."

We could not believe our wonderful fate w/ steak, when asked the locals for a recommendation for most valued steak in Orlando. In my mind, I have already decided to go for the most popular steak houses. It was great that we was unable to locate one of those, thus we went to CRACKER BARREL (will always be in our minds as #1 top place to have great fresh steaks!) as recommended. The carpark lots were ample when we drove there, and the external architecture was nice. Once we stepped in, the ambience could not have been better....very positive, welcoming, it feels food lovers was readily welcome there....by the ever friendly waiter/waiteress.....If you ask me....all deserved recognition for their service there...but one stood up....Mr Jason (same first name as me)....provided such excellent hospitality to both my wife and me...that we asked if we could take a photo of him together with us! He gladly agreed! But the main star was the FRESH steak served to both us....Ribeye steak in very generous portion and at a great price! The first bite was like...I needed to close my eyes to experience this as the yummy juicy freshness was slowly melting in my mouth....the fats...was a delight to be enjoyed......Totally heavenly I tell you! If ever need me to recommend just the best place of interest in Orlando (besides Disneyland, seaworld, premium outlets, Etc), Cracker Barrel that was it for me! It accelerated the lovely vibes for our time in Orlando!! And after having our yummy food....we were so full and needed for a takeaway for the leftovers.....Jason offered us a box each even without us having to say so...super! Then we went over to their creative corners with very nice stuff made my wife even super duper happy, and thus me too (x2).

Their freshness cooked in original taste of those steak made my wife (non steak lover) became a super fan of theirs and me too (one of very best steakhouses for me). After just that visit, we went back many times during that one week there in Orlando! To date, we still dream of visiting Cracker Barrel once more at least....anywhere....I will say it's our bucket list.....We really hope to go there again...or at least to their other branches in US......that's how amazing CRACKER BARREL experience was to us! THANK YOU, CRACKER BARREL!!!!! SEE YOU SOON WE HOPE!

My #1 wonder of the world: Niagara Falls

I went there two times, each time felt like dream came true for me. It was such an amazing sight the waterfall. We took the ferry down at the falls, it felt awesome w/ water splashing onto your face...super! First time I went by a chinese tour group, the other time I drove there. Both times are equally great! And there are two sides of the waterfall, either U.S or Canada side. To go Canada side, as the view is better most will say. It is also cool to visit the restaurant on level 2 as in the evening we can see from there rainbow colours shining across to the waterfalls. Beautiful sight to behold with your love one, which I did with my wife.

Amazing!

Great Splash!

Getting nearer!

I love their Rosemary Chicken sandwich very much.
It's very delicious and comforting, especially if you need a quick lunch yet a good break to fill you up before the next dash.

Their mushroom soup is really marvellous, densely populated w/ flavour each sip. Yummmmy!

When I purchased & consumed their food each time, this is what I thought of them:

Black Forest

Many of us I believe would have fond memories staring or eating a Black Forest cake, not just yummy, and also of its delicious appearance. This cake, a German dessert, named Schwarzwälder kirschtorte after the Black Forest region in southeastern Germany.

Yes! I tried one right in Black Forest:

Also...Black Forest is the home of the Cuckoo Clock. A vast range of Cuckoo Clocks (small, big, hanging, stand, cute, beautiful, creative, different cuckoo sound & Etc.) are sold here and distribute globally.

This is only a few displayed, wait till you experience a forest of them there

In such a chilling weather, these cuckoo shops even do cooking right hot on spot. The delicious smell its.......too unbearable and this was the result haha:

Though the journey is long, its quite satisfying to take busyness off the mind just by enjoying the scenic here.

Italian Mama Mia @ Frankfurt!?! This is it- Trattoria i Siciliani!

When I first stepped into this place, it was just like entering into a magical place, exactly like below picture in my eyes:

Aroma of food was filling me up, before I knew it. No wonder this place is currently ranked 3rd in Tripadvisor for Frankfurt Restaurants.

If you think the ambience is great, wait till you experience First class hospitality from the waiter.
Coming right to food, just the starters will make you hop with excitement- Delicious soups (ordered 2 types) warm the body and make you feel real good from the freezing weather outside.

The OYSTERS ....... ho ho ho..... will take you right to the heaven!
so much so that we ordered another serving of 2 types!!! It was the best I ever tried and was very fresh!!!!

Finally- Sometimes the bread and butter though simple which some restaurants will disregard its quality, could have us inferred the importance the restaurant would focus on its overall service. I must really point out that this restaurant have done these little things well- Excellent!
