Third Culture Kitchen, Titusville, Florida

 

“As the world gets smaller and smaller, food gets overlapped and we’re trying to represent that spirit.”

Dave Greenwell

When checking into our vacation rental for the week, we asked the ladies in the office where there was a good local place to eat. They suggested the Third Culture Kitchen and added, it is just a fun place to go. Well okay then. That got our curiosity. We unloaded our bags and set up the rental for our week and off we went to check out the “Fun” restaurant.

Third Culture was only a mile or so from our rental which was nice and convenient. It is also just a fifteen minute drive from Kennedy Space Center. We pulled into the crowded parking lot and found a spot to park. I loved the look of the outside patio strung with lights and fun paint job on the building. That would have been a great place to sit if it wasn’t in the upper 90’s that day. They do allow dogs to sit with you on the patio.

As we entered the building, at once you could see the fun and colorful paintings and eclectic design of the restaurant. A friendly hostess greeted up and lead us to a table. I noticed there was a full bar on one wall and along another modern and colorful mural along two walls. After looking at the drink menu, we saw all the wonderful specialty drinks and a great selection of beers. I ordered a margarita and Joe ordered a local beer. Cheers to the beginning of a great vacation.

This restaurant was designed to be a casual, relaxed place for friends and family to come and enjoy a great meal. The staff keep this place a fun and lively place to enjoy. Their mission statement is “Welcome, try this.”

We sat and looked over the very unique menu. They had such a variety of foods from all over the world. There was Asian Rice Bowls, burritos, tacos, Indochinese dishes, Lumpia, tapas, skewers, salads, vegetarian choices, ribs, and chicken. It was a very unique menu with great choices depending on your lifestyle.

Joe ordered the ribs and I ordered the oriental chicken. When the plates came out, we noticed that the serving size was large and the food smelled wonderful and it was. Everything was fantastic and the service was stellar. Stephanie, our waitress was very kind and professional. She did a great job.

The restaurant was opened in March 2018. Shawn and Jessie Landry who are the owners of Bagel 13, which was what was in this building prior to the Third Culture restaurant. Shawn and Jessie along with the former county commissioner, Robin Fisher all joined together with Dave Greenwood who got together to bring this unique idea of a restaurant into play.

The restaurant is located in the southern part of Titusville at 1000 Cheney Highway, Titusville, Florida and their hours are Monday – Thursday from 11 – 9, Friday and Saturday 11 – 10, and Sunday 10 – 9. Check out this unique restaurant with great food and friendly staff. Go have a nice relaxed meal and enjoy. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
