Yesterday I enjoyed sharing a bicycle ride with a friend through College Park to Scruffy Murphy’s.  The ride included winding around Lake Adair and Lake Ivanhoe near Downtown Orlando.  I would encourage anyone in the area to take an afternoon or morning to enjoy the scenic ride with brick paved streets, awesome views of the Orlando skyline and the quaint shops of College Park.

College Park is an eclectic area with homes, townhomes, duplexes, condos ranging in price from $200,000 to over a million dollars.

Last night I was in the mood for Chinese food so I Googled area Chinese restaurants and decided upon Shanghais.  Shanghai Chinese Take Out is located in the Oaks Park Shopping Center, 4040 13th Street, St. Cloud.  This is the shopping center where Staples is located.

I was impressed with the friendly nature of the staff and how fast my order was prepared.  I ordered Pork Lo Mein, General Tsao Chicken with an egg roll, pork fried rice and BBQ Spare Ribs.  The food was good and the portions were big enough to have leftovers in the fridge for this weekend.

In my opinion the Shanghai Chinese Take Out Restaurant is a good place to order out in the St. Cloud area.
