Ever wonder why....in a 55+ retirement community with very limited healthcare options....restaurant offerings seem to cater more to tourist tastes than healthier options in line with the residents it services. Could it be population control?! Kidding

I love to cook and control my own narrative. Eating out will always be a special occasion type of option (friends/fam etc). Between finding healthy dining and the obvious inherent risks in FL with DUI ....I’d rather host than be hosted!
