Eat while artists create |
8625 International Drive Orlando, FL 32819 United States +1 407 248 2222 http://www.cafetututango.com |
Artists at work are the lure of this restaurant/studio that relies on some of the region's most creative folks to provide the dining atmosphere. In this artsy environment, tapas and other finger foods are the delectables of choice, including such selections as Baked Artichoke and Crabmeat Dip for your chips, Mango Duck Quesadilla, and Dijon Chicken Skewers. There is also a substantial wine list, along with a full bar. This warmly-colored lounge is intimate and laid-back, and the servers are real pros. Every wall is covered in artwork made by local artists, some of it made right in the cafe itself! Each piece of art on the walls is for sale, so at Cafe Tu Tu Tango, you can have your cake and buy a painting of it, too! Review © 2007, Wcities |

This restaurant's kitchen produces a creditable array of Chinese delicacies, ranging from traditional Americanized favorites to more daringly authentic dishes. An reasonably priced lunch buffet draws quite a crowd. A la carte entrees include Spicy Shrimp and Chicken Lo Mein. If you have a taste for seafood, Grey Sole is an unusual choice; its price tag may seem a bit daunting, but the dish feeds two. Review © 2007, Wcities |
