1st: High Tide Harry's, hightideharrys.com
In Orlando, the beach is just a bit too far. Great thing you can get your seafood fix center-state at High Tide Harry's: They bring the fish camp vibe for real, with the steamiest seafood platters and hush puppies galore. It's the perfect place to wear a bib, get your hands wet, and gorge yourself on crab legs, rock shrimp and clams like you're tank-topped and flip-flopped beachside.

Local Legends: Jason and Sue Chin

This (super)power couple must have the ability to freeze time, because somehow they split their energies among all the entities in their Good Salt Restaurant Group, including Seito Sushi, The Osprey, Reyes Mezcaleria and The Monroe. The Chins are staunch supporters of local chef talent and front-of-house rockstars, and they're steady builders of Orlando's fine dining scene.
