The Littlest Food Critic Tries A NEW Top Chef Restaurant In Orlando & Some Rainy Day Home Vlog Fun!

In today’s vlog we start with some rainy day fun at home. Jackson got to jump in some muddy puddles and it was windy enough to fly our new kite too! Then we made some dinner from our vegan meal subscription box, Purple Carrot. While we were waiting for dinner to finish we added in some footage from the other night where we went back to Four Flamingos at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Resort! This is a Richard Blais restaurant and we were so excited to come back so Jenn could try some of the amazing seafood offerings! We had some appetizers, the croquettas and the shrimp cocktail. Then we had the filet and the moqueca for our mains. Jackson had the chicken and he loved it. We ended our meal with the banana and chocolate dessert and the key lime dessert. Both were so so good! It was such a nice dinner and we loved eating outside in the Florida room type patio area. It just felt very Florida and we definitely recommend trying it out for dinner on your next trip. Then we end our night back at present day with our vegan tomato bisque dinner. We had a great couple of days and we hope you had fun hanging out with us! Thank you for watching and we’ll see you tomorrow with a new vid!

Oh my goodness. If I am ever having a bad day, I am just going to watch Jackson jumping in puddles. Too stinking cute

[@lisarakowski3837]

Jackson never stop jumping in muddy puddles, I’m 58 years young and I still jump in muddy puddles! ❤️💧☔️

[@clairewalton6871]

Eight years ago the first Tim Tracker video I ever watched was of Jen and Tim at Food and Wine--I will never forget it, being a homesick little freshman in college. Let me just say, HO-LY COW you guys have become such great food critics and it deserves tons of praise!!! Thank you for bringing me joy for all of these years and for all that you do.

[@nadinequintieri3621]

You guys are getting me through a really rough time. My mom and two boys tested positive for Covid. My mom is recovering thank goodness and my boys are doing good. Watching your videos and little Jackson has been getting me through this. Jackson is such a sweetheart. Love you all❤❤

[@katd1026]

Praying for a quick recovery!

[@taylorplaskowitz5763]

Jackson in is raincoat and boots is the cutest thing ever.

[@deanb6489]

So many core memories. Thank you Trackers for taking us on the adventure.

[@DisCastMember07]

Jackson’s laugh is just so contagious I love it. Just love watching him learn and try new things

[@dobaleedo]

I love that you addressed "difficult families" cuz we all know what that means. I will die on the hill that if you're rude to waiters then you are just a bad person. I can tell everything I need to know about someone by how they treat service workers.

[@lisacraze1]

Oh Jackson jumping in muddy puddles was EVERYTHING!!! So so cute and sweet!

[@amandakay83]

I love your home vlogs and love seeing Jackson grow up. Jackson jumping in puddles is the best!! Thank you for sharing him with us!

Jackson jumping in the puddles reminds me of Christopher Robin.

Hi Tim, Jen and Jackson! We have over 20 inches of snow in Erie, Pa! Look forward to your videos even if it's rainy there!😊

Jackson in the puddles was UH-DORABLE! That restaurant looks amazing! I don't eat seafood but I'll have steak and chicken tenders haha. Huge hugs and love to you guys xoxo

Barbasol can lmbo. Love it! Also stay away from storm drains, lol.

[@squishyshelli]

Thank you! That joke is way under-appreciated in the comment section! It got a big belly laugh out of me 😂 PS- the storm drains is a good one, too, lol!

[@karenr3458]

I loved watching Richard Blais on Top Chef, hope to get to Florida and try his restaurant, everything looked AMAZING, and loved seeing Jackson jumping in rainy day puddles ❤

[@KevinGerhardt]

@Karen R do not forget he is now on a new show with *Chef Gordon Ramsay* called "Next Level Chef" - how awesome would it be to meet both of them, plus meeting Chef Guy Fieri (they are my favorite male chefs) and Chef Alex Guarnaschelli and Chef Anonia Lofaso (favorite female chefs) BTW I also watched *Top Chef* an was rooting for Chef Richard Blais

[@maia1050]

[@Vern0811]

Jackson was so adorable jumping in the puddles…..oh and Tim….I love the sweater too! Wear it as often as you can…..I would lol

[@beckers68]

Jackson looks like Christopher Robin in his boots and raincoat! SO ADORABLE!! By the way Jen, you are brilliant for sneaking in veggies in his food. Keep offering him veggies, tastes in toddlers change all the time. But for now, that is awesome!!

[@jlsmith9974]

So cute!! Good to see Jackson in the video!! He's such a cute smart boy sometimes I forget he's only 2!! I love Tim's sweater! Enjoy it you've earned it!

[@phillyfanbrenden]

I’m from Pennsylvania so when ever I visit Florida when it’s 70 degrees out I’m putting on shorts and t shirts but everyone from Florida is wearing heavy jackets and sweat pants lol

[@Luscious1221]

PA 🙋🏻‍♀️ .. I remember being there in December back in the late 90's and the temperature was in the upper 50's low 60's all week which is hot for us and I too was in shorts and tshirts. Everyone else in the parks were dressed like Nanook of the north 🤣. I was enjoying a show and eating in the saloon at liberty square and the announcer says, you can always tell the people from up north because they're the ones wearing shorts 🤣 and the rest of us are freezing.

[@phillyfanbrenden]

@@Luscious1221 it’s so true

[@dobaleedo]

OH here. 70° is my favorite. I'm in shorts until it's about 45°. I dont wear a coat ever. Today its 26° and snowing (real feel 16°) and I still had on a tshirt running my errands. I keep a coat in my car in case I break down but I dont use it unless I'm going to be outside for a while.

[@jamiekernc9925]

I'm from PA too, but I get cold under 75°. I take a packable jacket, gloves, and hat for late fall/winter/ mid spring in Florida!

[@trishsp3160]

Same, coming from Maryland!

[@cyndyhudson7634]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video. I always enjoy the HOME VLOGS! The best.

[@uncleange27]

Jackson in the muddy puddles is adorable!! Also, so jealous that you got to go back to Richard's restaurant!! He is my all time favorite Top Chef Alum and his food is awesome!! Appreciate Tim sporting the Gucci sweater for the occasion!

[@YesItsJess]

I love Jenn’s descriptions of food. Also, the puddle jumping was too cute :)

[@glendarodriguez469]

Your little one is living his best life. ♥️

[@nancyhamilton4494]

When my daughter was little and I'd take her out to play in the puddles she would call it "puddle dancing". These are great memories you are making for Jackson, and these memories will be precious for you as well.

[@elaineroom6358]

Just a suggestion Jenn, try putting the main part of Jacksons meal on his plate and then put vegetables in a separate bowl with a spoon and let him help himself. This is how we encourage children to try new vegetables in our day nursery, it works, 😀

[@disneygal3566]

Tim rocking his Gucci Dad sweater! LOOKING SHARP!

[@CaseClara]

I really think you guys should explore Brazilian food more! Jenn would love the seafood of the northeast (like the Moqueca) and Tim would definitely be a Churrasco (our barbecue) that is usually from the South of Brazil. There are loads of good Brazilian restaurants in Orlando. You guys should try! Love from BRAZIL ❤️🇧🇷

[@katd1026]

AGREED! Would love seeing a review of it!

[@TinksiehTink]

I love how you just took the elevator up and down with Jackson 💕 Just cuz. No big deal 😂

[@crystalnicole6016]

I really enjoy your relaxing home vlogs and The Four Flamingos looks amazing!!

[@Lamajamama]

The ambiance on the patio at Four Flamingos came across perfectly on video. The fountain, the music, and then the description of the modern take of Grandma’s FL house from Chef Richard gave me chills bringing back strong childhood memories of visiting Orlando. Incredible 🥰🤯

[@luanncorbin8652]

That bisque you made looked wonderful. At first I thought it was a crab cake floating in there. That would be great as well. Good job. I remember when you started cooking, you are more confident now. Great job. 😎☃️💕. We have snow here. In Pa.

[@melanieknight4503]

Jackson jumping in muddy puddles is the best thing! ❤️❤️ Also wanted to say Jenn you are such a good cook everything you make always looks delicious ❤️❤️

"I *LOVE* CHOCOLATE!" -Jackson speaking for us all 😂

Que bello Jackson me encantó verlo con sus botas en los charcos. Difrutando su niñez.

[@starryjean6780]

That was awesome seeing Jackson jumping in those puddles. Your dinner looked absolutely delicious. Have a safe & blessed week. 🏝

[@lauram3620]

That dinner looked amazing! I want to add a trip to that restaurant on our upcoming trip for sure. Love seeing that we can bring the kids too. Thanks for sharing your experience!!

[@kimmontes589]

The music is wonderful! Looks like a great atmosphere.

[@nickellfrancis6846]

Wow that Was a really nice place thank you Tim and jenn love the culinary food

[@accountforwastingtime]

Sounds like a good alternative option to Disney dinners if you don't get a reservation or want somewhere quieter- good kids menu, tons of food, good service and who needs to wait in line for Disney rides when your toddler can just ride the 18 story elevator and have just as much fun?!

[@anmolkundlas6132]

I am living for the mickey blue sweater 👏👏👏

That meal looked delicious and love that homely feel 🙂👍

I love Richard Blaze. I always watch him on Top Chef

[@Tuckeylad]

That food was amazing! I swear I could smell the aroma from it :)

[@amaliaoriley32]

Just watching Jackson react with puddles and chocolate and it just makes me think that he is more and more like my nephew than anything else cuz I do exactly the same thing with chocolate and puddles.

[@amy_soucy]

I love that you showed the lobby. We have stayed at the GC so many times, miss it so much! Give me warm fuzzies seeing it. We love the view on the club balcony there too. :) Keep on muddy puddle jumping Jackson! Woo-hoo!

My hubby and I stayed at the Hyatt Regency Grnad Cypress for our honeymoon. It was so awesome, so much to do, super relaxing, and very comfortable! We highly recommend!

OMG!!!! I remember when he was born!!! How quick is quick!!? Soo cute!

[@jessicaa5880]

The looming shadow of Jackson when they’re leaving the restaurant is my favorite part

[@katd1026]

That place looked awesome. I will definitely eat there when I come down. Jackson looks like he grew again and he is talking so well!

[@fallonelle]

Omg I can't believe how big he has gotten!!!! That is just insane. He has always been a tall kid but I just feel like he has grown so much recently, and the haircut just makes him look like such a big boy!!! The kite footage is so cute, he looks like he's in pure joy 🤗 Also, Jackson's reaction to being asked "do you want some bread?" is literally ME

[@kevindrake4529]

I hope “The Littlest Food Critic” gets a whole series of vids. What a fun concept. Review these places from the kids’ point of view. It’s nice to know the places that welcome the little guys.

Love Tim’s sweater! Your family is beautiful and enjoyed seeing this video

[@RB-je2ri]

I wasn’t aware of the concept of the restaurant and when the lid for the shrimp dish was lifted, I immediately thought, “Reminds me of a glass dish we had when I was a kid”. The food looked fabulous all the way around and was clearly Jackson approved. Fantastic!

[@MrKarmapolice97]

I love hearing Jackson talk

[@tommytom1545]
