First Look: Inside Chroma’s 2019 Magical Dining Menu

Celebrate Orlando’s culinary scene with Visit Orlando’s Magical Dining®, now in its 14th year.  Running from Aug. 23 through Sept. 30, 2019, it’s your chance to enjoy three-course, prix-fixe dinners at more than 120 of Orlando’s best restaurants for just $35 per person.  Additionally, through Visit Orlando, $1 from each meal will benefit two local charities: the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Greater Orlando and Lighthouse Central Florida.

We were invited to Chroma for a sneak peek and taste of their Magical Dining menu this year.

Chroma is an innovative restaurant located in Lake Nona Town Center that serves a colorful menu of small plates, craft beer, fine wine-on-tap, and specialty cocktails.
