I had the pleasure of dining at Emeril's Tchoup Chop Restaurant, located at the Royal Pacific Resort near Universal Studios. This has to be one of Orlando's best kept secrets. Unlike other restaurants at Universal CityWalk, you can park right at the restaurant and opt for the $5 valet parking if you prefer. The food is amazing! We sampled tasty apps, such as the homemade dumpling box with a fresh pork and ginger filling, the ginger BBQ gulf shrimp and the amazing tuna salad (pictured). Everthing was fantastic, and General Manager Jeff Kundinger made sure our visit was top notch. In addition to the fabulous food and amazing decor, Emeril's Tchoup Chop offers some unique martini and cocktails, which are sure to help you enjoy your Asian-Polynesian inspired dining experience.If you have not dined here, be sure to check it out for lunch or dinner. You can also enjoy Universal CityWalk from the restaurant via water taxi or a brief stroll.
