My wife and I both like the Goblin Market. It took us a while to find it, but once we did, we were impressed.

My wife's favorite in Mt. Dora is the Garden Gate Teahouse. Nice atmosphere, but I am not a big fan of their "light" menu (last time I was there I had a sandwich with asparagus and melted cheese and while very good, I was ready to go out to lunch after dining there.
I wonder if the Garden Gate Teahouse is the place that the husbands avoid while the wives frequent as discussed by some shoppers we overheard in Mt. Dora yesterday. It seems the husband said it was just too foo-foo for him.
