RED Episode #123- RunDisney Virtual Space Mountain 5K and Leroy’s Southern Kitchen & Bar in Punta Gorda  

RUN

This week we did the RunDisney Virtual 5K honoring the classic attraction Space Mountain.  We headed to Punta Gorda and found Laishley Park to complete this run.  It was a great view of the water with paved paths.  It would even provide us with bridge-work, if we needed it.   We have earned the medal and cannot wait to receive it as it was one of the first coasters that captured our hearts and still makes us feel like kids again.

EAT

Leroy’s Southern Kitchen & Bar was a wonderful find in Punta Gorda.  It has the atmosphere of a country kitchen.  We had a Fried Green Tomato appetizer with a different spin and great dipping sauce.  Our meals were incredible as well, from Pork and Pancakes to a classic. Ribeye with the perfect char and sides.  We had dessert that took us back to childhood in the banana cream pudding.  There was so much more on the menu to try.  We will return and think you should too!  Leroy’s Southern Kitchen & Bar Is one of our favorites that we’ve featured on the show. 

DRINK

Leroy’s Southern Kitchen & Bar is a bourbon bar and boasts a substantial cocktail list as well as a wide variety of Florida locals on tap perfect for a refreshing post-run beverage.  There were several different types of Old Fashioned cocktails, but we had to have the Cornbread Old Fashioned.    Cornbread-infused whiskey?  Sign us up.  It was so delicious!   We’ve got to go again and sample a few more of their original creations.

THAT’S A WRAP!
