Newbie question

[leebee]

First time to UF/IoA. We are going on Dec. 23 specifically for Harry Potter parks. After the park closes, we want to go to CityWalk for supper (either Pat O's or Emeril's). Can we walk from the parks to the restaurants? Which park is closer to which restaurant? How long will this take? Thanks for your help!

First thing to mention - Emeril's is actually closed. It has been replaced by Big Fire Grill.

As for how things are laid out, you actually walk from the parking garage/security zone THROUGH Citywalk to get to the parks - see pic below - parking garages on the right, Citywalk in the middle, entrance to USF on the top left, entrance to IOA on the bottom left. There are certainly restaurants closer to one or the other park but you are really talking the difference of a minute or two.
