Quick question. Does Emeril's Orlando have a kids menu? I know Tchop Chop does, but DH and I prefer the menu at Emeril's and our children wouldn't touch anything on it, but the kids menu at Tchop Chop looks good for them.
There isn't one on their web site (www.emerils.com) I don't know how old your children are but I think the experience is geared more towards adults. We have reservations there in July and won't be taking our kids- and they're 15 and 17! I don't think that they would appreciate the food.
I think it definitely depends on your child. I have a 12 year old son whose gastronomical tastes FAR exceed mine - he would get so much more out of a visit to Emerils than me!
