DAY 2 - November 18th, 2011 - Nassau, Bahamas (Part 7)
Once the show ended, we made our way alllll the way up top and aft to dine at Palo! Tonight we were supposed to dine at Animators Palate according to our rotation, so we were bummed about missing it (its our favorite on the Dream...mainly for the menu). When we boarded yesterday, we contemplated changing our Palo reservation, but knowing wed be back on the Dream in three weeks eating in all the main dining rooms, we decided we would keep our Palo reservation as it was.
We were seated as soon as we checked in (at about 7:25...our reservation was for 7:30). It wasnt a window table, but in the next row. (A window table didnt really matter, though, as it was pitch black out, haha).
Now I must ask for forgiveness. I dont recall our servers name. However, our previous Palo server on the Dream was working and I remembered him (Lazslo)! After our server informed Lazslo he served us previously, he came over and said he remembered us. Who knows if it was true or not, but it was still nice he stopped by nonetheless.
Anyway, before all this, we were brought the bread selection by a random server.
Then our server came over and asked if we dined at Palo before. We tell him that we had, many times, and we spared him having to give the spiel. We knew what we wanted, haha! So, he took our order and got a couple of soft drinks for us.
After that, he brought over the antipasto cart and made up a plate for us.
Shortly after that, our first dishes arrived. The quattro formaggi pizza and the mushroom risotto.
After finishing that, our palate cleanser arrived.
Within 10 minutes or so, our server came back and asked if he even needed to ask the question. Of course we knew what we meant (if we wanted souffles or not...they ask before the main course since they prepare it so you get it in a timely fashion after your entree). So, we say YES! He asked how many, and of course we replied with two! Then, our main dishes arrived! We both got the signature Palo beef tenderloin.
Upon completing the entree, we asked to see the dessert menu as there might be more we wanted for dessert in addition to the souffle. Well, we decided we did indeed want more, haha. So, we got the souffle, panna cotta, and the tiramisu!
At this point, I also snapped a picture of the Christmas decorations hanging at the top of the windows:
We paid, added extra gratuity, and were shortly on our way out. Not before taking a few more pictures, though! These are of the chandelier as you enter the restaurant.
