Death In The Afternoon

The 13 Hottest Restaurants in Orlando Right Now

"The Mills 50 absinthe house shakes and stirs some stellar cocktails, no doubt, but an accompanying menu overseen by chef Eric Norvelus keeps things in the Spanish wheelhouse. Dishes like a housemade chorizo smashburger, pork belly served atop pasilla mole, and charred octopus braised in fennel and smoked pimentón topped with a mound of seasoned black lentils are the stuff writers coo about. The bar is named after the Hemingway work, and Papa certainly would’ve knocked back a few namesake Death in the Afternoons (absinthe and champagne) and cooed about them. Basque cheesecake makes a fine and filling ending." - Faiyaz Kara
