·21 min·1 clip

A local who was born in 1997 grew up on this block and watched Mills 50 change drastically.

Travel in 10 takes a walking tour through Orlando's Mills 50 District and Mills Market with local food blogger Ricky Lee from Tasty Chomps. The episode leans into the flavors, the stories, and the small spots that make this one of Orlando's most interesting food neighborhoods. Mills Market is described as a place where people come together, catch up, and stay connected, not just somewhere to shop. The discussion explains that the shift from supermarket to food hall reflects a new generation keeping family roots and traditions alive in a different form. It treats the market as a community anchor and part of the real essence of Orlando, with real locals and a notably diverse mix of people. The tour also includes a stop connected to Camille, the first Vietnamese American Michelin-starred restaurant. The manager there is the chef's sister, and the chef's background at Victorian Alberts at Disney is part of the story, showing how training and craft feed into the neighborhood scene. The episode then moves inside an Orlando Magic game for a surprising culinary experience, reinforcing the idea that good food in Orlando can turn up in unexpected places. By the end, Mills 50 feels like a neighborhood where food, family, and community all belong in the same story.
