Tastebuds of Florida at Winter Park Farmers Market

Taste Buds is a beloved food vendor at the Winter Park Farmers’ Market, serving fresh, authentic Latin cuisine with Puerto Rican roots. Owner Juan Rivera brings big flavor to the market with crowd favorites like omelets, tacos, and rotating seasonal dishes that highlight the rich traditions of Latin cooking. His booth has become a local favorite for visitors looking for something delicious, homemade, and full of personality.

Juan’s journey began when he purchased the business from a long-time vendor who had served the community for more than 20 years. Since then, he has carried on that legacy with his own twist—changing the menu every six months to keep things exciting and give customers something new to look forward to. What he loves most is the community itself: the friendly conversations, familiar faces, and supportive people who make the Winter Park market feel like home.

Whether you're stopping by for a bite or exploring the market for the first time, Juan hopes visitors leave with great memories and a full stomach. You can connect with Taste Buds outside the market through Instagram and Facebook, where Juan also shares updates about his food truck and catering. For anyone chasing a dream of their own, his advice is simple: just go for it—keep learning, keep changing, and keep moving forward.
