During Carlo’s time at UCF, we created many fond memories exploring Orlando and the greater Central Florida area. While there's plenty of spots to visit, here are some of our favorite that we recommend!
Disney Springs

Disney Springs

1486 Buena Vista Drive, Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830

A small award-winning food hall for delicious Asian eats. Also, this market is located on Mills Road which is FLOODED with other Asian dining and coffee shops! If you're looking for dessert after eating at Mill's Market, we highly recommend going to Kori Bakery & Dessert about 5 minute walking distance away ;)

Sampaguita Ice Cream

This is our go-to curated thrift shop in Orlando! Very affordable relative to other curated shops we've seen.

Fable Coffee Shop

Fable Coffee Shop

11909 E Colonial Dr, Orlando, FL 32826

If there's two things we love, it's board game hangouts and coffee dates.
