Tips for Dining, Eating and Food Shopping in Florida (inc. Orlando, Tampa and the Florida Keys)

Sanibel/Captiva Dining with a 2.5 year old Diva?

My wife, daughter and I will be staying at Captiva in early July and I was hoping to get some suggestings on places to eat and markets. We will be staying in a condo and are open to all price ranges / types of food. I would also like to find a nice market with quality ingredients and maybe some prepared foods for quick lunches at the condo. If anyone has some local favorites please share :)

    I haven't been to Captiva for dinner for 4 or 5 months. I try to only write recs on places I've been to recently. The restaurant I like the best is Old Captiva House in the charming Tween Waters Inn.
