This historic home and farm complex is a great place to spend a little time learning about life in the 1800's. Located right off a main road, it is easy to get to, though be sure to check their hours. Historians are often available, and the Plantation does offer periodic events throughout the year, including craft days, re-enactments, and character plays about historic figures. This is nice place to visit for an hour or two. Very small children will likely get bored, but older elementary kids seem to like it.

Located right off Wendover Ave., not far from Eastchester Dr., this park is a gem. There are sports fields, picnic pavilions, and a small play area for kids. In addition, this is a great access point for the Greenway recreational path, and from here you can run or bike through a nice area with varied scenery. Restroom facilities are also located at the end of the driveway.

This is one of the Japanese restaurants where the chefs cook the food at your table. It is always an enjoyable show, though talkativeness and comedic skills vary from chef to chef. Kids are always entranced during the cooking. The food is very good, with a large selection of entrรฉes and sushi. If you are looking for a private or intimate dinner, however, this is not the place, as you are seated at tables of ten and the place can be somewhat loud during busy periods.

This is not the easiest place to get in to, but it is worth it. The store is visible from Eastchester Dr., but you have to get around behind it to enter. The service is great, and orders are done quickly. There are also often discount coupons in local entertainment or attractions books.

This is wonderful fried chicken, served in sandwiches and salads. The chicken is tender and tasty, though not very good for you! This is a counter service restaurant, but your food is prepared to order. The decor is fun, but the seating area is small and crowded. Lunchtime gets really packed.

Great sandwiches! This place is in a small strip mall in the Target shopping center on Bridford. The menu offers a range of sandwiches, salads, and dessert options. This is one of the few places to offer kid's meals with fruit. The decor is kind of a rustic lodge setting, and kids get a kick out of the canoe hanging from the ceiling. There is a frequent diner program available.

This very casual restaurant has wonderful BBQ, especially the pulled pork. The menu is varied, and the service is generally friendly and quick. This is very popular with locals, and can fill up fast. It does tend to get very loud, and there is little separation between smoking and nonsmoking sections.

This place looks a little run down, but it is a great place for kids and adults to roller skate. The music tends to be pretty loud, but there is always supervision on the rink, and the staff breaks up the skating with games and races. There is a small snack bar, though selection is very limited. There are lots of open skate times, and frequent theme skates, like "Christian Music Night." This is also a fairly good deal for larger kid's birthday parties.

This Golden Corral is a bit smaller than some of the others around, but still has a good selection of hot and cold items. The service is good, though the seating areas have a bit of a cramped feel. A good deal for big eaters, but if you have a small appetite, you are unlikely to get your money's worth.

This rink has open skating, as well as time for team sports and parties. The skating is fun, and the ice itself is well-tended, but the rest of the place looks run down. Cost is reasonable, but the times that I was there, I did not notice a lot of supervision on the ice. Older kids will enjoy this, though smaller ones may be a bit intimidated by the skaters who speed by.
