One of the great things about The Villages is that at the squares and in al of the various clubs, we all mix together and no one cares. We have high end restaurants and McDonalds and everything in between.
Good luck to FMK. Hope they’ll do well. If not for you for whatever reason it might be for someone else. I don’t understand all the bickering.
I'm sure they'll do fine. They do a good job with Orange Blossom Country Club. I still bristle about having to pay $9 for a HOTDOG and chips for crying out loud. But it's one of the few restaurants where you can even get a dog around here. They're good dogs. Just - c'mon. 9 DOLLARS for one hotdog? They have really great haddock. I like their lemon-butterfish too. They do something really weird with their squash/zucchini veggie side: they slice them like cucumbers and just - heat them up I guess? No seasoning. So I take them home along with half the rice that comes with the entree. I cube the veggies, and stir-fry them with soy and garlic. That plus the rice makes for a filling nutritious lunch the next day.

At least with the full dinner menu I get enough on the plate that I can make another meal out of it.

Still though - $9 hotdogs - I just shake my head sadly about that.
