"We acted on a restaurant recommendation from Rich in the poolside bar. He made the connection for us, called a taxi, and we had a WONDERFUL evening at Vines in Orlando. The food was excellent, and the New Orleans jazz entertainment by the Bernie Lee Trio was superb! We sat at a front table and would not have it any other way! This recommendation was definitely tops!"
