Kitschy Mexican chain restaurant known for an extensive hot sauce bar & colorful, muraled walls. Great Sauces. You'll want to buy a few bottles to take home. Tijuana Flats was started by a UCF Student twenty years ago. His father who was a CEO of a company, quit his job to work for his son. Fun little place. TUESDAY is TACO TUESDAY every week. Tacos are a steal on this day.

Shopping

Natasha and Jennifer are the best, and Naked's products are fantastic. The store has a wonderful vibe; it's clear that a lot of love goes into both the space and products. Natasha is super knowledgeable about every single ingredient that goes into the soaps/scrubs, and always makes fantastic recommendations. Also, Pit Cream has changed my life. I used to use Tom's deodorant thinking I was doing the right thing by having a natural deodorant, but I would smell SO bad by the end of the day. Pit Cream not only smells wonderful, but it keeps me smelling wonderful all day.
