Our main dishes arrived next. I am not a big fan of the pirate menu for the most part. I did enjoy everything I had, but I felt that the options that I would like were limited, which makes me get the same thing every time now that I have found things I like. That being said, one of my favorite dishes now on the whole cruise is the Treasure-of-the-Seas Grilled Shrimp and Seared Scallops served on strings of pasta and fresh creamy tomato sauce. I discovered this on the Magic, which was my first pirate night menu I have had on DCL. (The 3 night cruises, which I took last on the Dream does not offer a pirate menu). This dish is just really good and I could go for a helping of it right now.
I am pretty sure Gail got this dish.
Jack Sparrows Barbecue Marinated Beef Short Ribs Rubbed beef short ribs with tamarind-barbecue sauce served with onion red bliss mashed potatoes and plantain chip.
The meal was delicious. We also enjoyed the changing pirate scenes.
I think Rob is the one who discovered that the pictures kept changing. I thought that was a nice touch here.
The desserts offered on this menu just dont do much for me. I was so stuffed from eating so much (and I had vowed tonight I would try to eat lighter ..yeah right) that I thought I would skip dessert. Abby was getting tired of being there and I offered to take her for a walk so Gail and Rob could enjoy the dinner. Rob quickly said he would take her. I told him it would be no problem as I was skipping dessert, but I knew he didnt want to burden anyone. But I seriously didnt mind. He did leave with Abby though and I ended up ordering a Mickey Bar. After all its just ice cream and it will slide right into all the holes left in my stomach .right?
Benjamin also came over and did a trick for the kids.
Alexis was always trying to figure out how he did what he did and she would try it over and over and see if she could get it. I did get this one figured out and I shared the secret with Claire.
Claire also made the same choice as I and went with the Mickey bar.
We enjoyed the meal and waited for the drink bills to come once again and once again they just didnt appear.
We basically gave up because we had a pirate party to attend to.
While we were having dessert, Rob took Abby for a few pictures. Arent they so cute?
