Emeril’s Tchoup Chop

Set in the Royal Pacific Resort at Universal Orlando,  Emeril's Tchoup Chop (pronounced Chop Chop) has a fun “tiki bar” décor complete with bamboo, waterfalls, sculpted gardens and giant woks. The menu focuses on the islands of the Pacific and two of the most popular selections are the Kona coffee glazed duck breast and grilled pork chops with ginger roasted sweet potatoes. Children’s menu items tend toward the more exotic—with entrees like seared filet mignon with mustard-plum sauce and desserts like Kahlua cake sundae—so older kids with adventurous palates might find it much more enjoyable than pre-kindergarteners.

Emeril's, 6300 Hollywood Way, tel. 407-503-2467, www.emerils.com.

Rainforest Café

With a themed rainforest, mist, waterfalls, and chirping and yelping robotic birds and animals, kids have so much sensory stimulation they almost forget about their meal at the Rainforest Café. The kid’s menu is less than exotic and dotted with classics like grilled cheese on Texas toast and breaded popcorn shrimp. My daughter orders the same thing every time we go to a Rainforest: the charbroiled mini-burgers. Besides the taste, I think she likes them because they’re small, easy to eat and allow her to concentrate on all the jungle mayhem going on around her.

Rainforest Café (two Orlando locations): Downtown Disney Marketplace, tel. 407-827-8500 and Disney’s Animal Kingdom, tel. 407-938-9100, www.rainforestcafe.com.
