My favorite seafood resturant. Now owned by the Mandola family who started the Carraba Resturant chain. I worked for Vincent Mandola for two years at Ninos and that's when I became a food snob.

Cockerell Butterfly Center is a stunning, three-story glass structure built around a 50-foot waterfall. Open year round, the Butterfly Center is a simulated tropical rainforest filled with exotic plants and hundreds of live butterflies from around the world. The Butterfly Center is home to several other exhibits as well, including a crawl-through model of a beehive, giant models of insects like caterpillars and beetles, immersive exhibits that make visitors feel like they are the size of a bug, and a video station where giant models of insect heads are outfitted with specialized cameras. Here, visitors can see themselves how different species of insects would see them – in 360 degrees, through a different visual color spectrum, and more. What fun!
