:cool:

Emeril's Tchoup Chop (pronounced chop-chop) is the second by Emeril Lagasse at Universal Orlando. The name is meant to offer a hint of New Orleans' famous Tchoupitoulas Street, where Emeril's parent restaurant is located, and the word "chop" a bold culinary term. It is now open at Universal Orlando’s newest hotel, the Royal Pacific Resort.

Too late for the OP, but I'd second the idea of seeing the Cirque du Soleil show "La Nouba."

Various forms of nightlife in Downtown Disney might be of interest.

All booked up for KSC, Merrit island nature drive, Thousand islands boat tour, and just for the novelty a hotel on Cocoa beach to walk along.
I grew up on the east coast of the UK and am used to cold beaches for walking dogs on, looking for stones and watching ships in the North sea so my idea of beaches doesnt involve lots of sun and sand,

Tons to do...
 

As a resident of Orlando I can tell you that there are a million things to do in and around Orlando.

First, if you don't like Disney, there is Universal Studios and Sea World. Tampa (2 hours south) has Busch Gardens. There is Gator Land and Cypress Gardens.

Old Town in Kissimmee and Celebration is fun for walking around and amusement park games.

Shopping, shopping, shopping.

Tons of smaller venues such as Titanic the exhibition, Wonder Works, Ripley's Belive it or Not, Pirates Dinner Theater, HolyLand Experience.

Boardwalk at Epcot, City Walk at Universal and Downtown Disney are fun to walk around.

City Walk and Pleasure Island at Downtown Disney, as well as Church Street in Downtown Orlando are great for dancing and bar hopping.

St. Augustine (America's oldest city) is 2 hours northeast, so is Daytona and Cape Caneveral/Kenndy Space Center.

Winter Park and Altamonte Springs has a lot of places you can visit, including the Orlando Science Museum and AM Way Center.

Clearwater, Mebourne and Cocoa beach are less than 2 hours away. Or go to Disney's Typhoon Lagoon or Blizzard Beach or Wet 'n' Wild for water rides and slides.

Go Hot air balloning or visit the Flight of Fantasy Air museum.

There is a reason why Orlando calls itself the "Vacation Capital of the World."

If you still can't decide what you want to do, PM me and I will try to help you out.

Have FUN!
