I live in orlando ,fl. we now have a lot of great restaurants. I think the restaurants on sandlake road are awesome with a large variety. They are packed every night of the week.

You attempted to name cities other than the "well-known foodie paradises" like NYC and Los Angeles and to look beyond these "expensive" cities yet you still named San Francisco as one of your 10 great places. San Francisco is undisputedly in the same ranks as NYC and Los Angeles, being one of the cities with the most restaurants per capita and having some of the greatest food in the country. I'm agreeing that it's a great place to retire and eat, but if you didn't want to name some of the typical places, you certainly didn't achieve that. AND it's pretty disappointing that you chose to mention the touristy foods of SF in the slide show (Fisherman's Wharf? Clam Chowder? Are you kidding me???) Also, just FYI, I wouldn't have mentioned whether or not a place is "expensive," as you can find good cheap eats anywhere if you look hard enough. Clearly, you're not a "foodie" and maybe this shouldn't have been a MoBiz article.

You've got to be joking! DC is one of the last places to make it on anyone's list for haute cuisine. I moved here from Chicago and find it hard to believe that you picked DC over Chicago. Chicago is known for its wonderful restaurants for decent prices. The "Good Stuff Eatery" is an over-priced, loud, obnoxious restaurant frequented by hill staffers. Who wants to pay $12-$15 for lunch? Are you kidding me?
