The Crab Shack

 

 

The popcorn shrimp must have been a misprint on the menu because they were huge and delicious !

 

 

 

 

Growing up in the South I've eaten a lot of hush puppies , but these were the best . The addition of cheese to the usually dry cornbread was genius ! And so the first round of food knocked it out of the park ! The soup was good , but paled in comparison .

 

 

 

 

And now , here is where the fun really begins . We had both ordered the King Crab legs and they require some surgical dissection .

 

 

 

 

It's hard to tell from the photo just how much food is in the bowl and so I had Pat hold a claw , and as you can see , she really had a handful !

 

 

 

We stuffed ourselves with the rich crab and butter and didn't come close to finishing what was in the bowl . We didn't even want to look at dessert , as we were so full that we couldn't eat another bite . But for those who would like to see what dessert looks like , here's a photo from the CB .

 

 

 

To summarize our dining experience at the Crab Shack on the Regal : It was a delicious and full filling experience !

Catamaran Sunset Sail - Hawaii

The Chef's Table . We met the other diners and the Maitre d'Hotel Francisco Patricio , at Bellini's Bar . We then headed down to the galley for a change into white coats and a through hand washing . And moving rapidly through the hot and busy galley ( after all - it was dinner time ) , we met The Executive Chef Naveen Quadros .

 

 

He conducted the tour and is serving us our first hors d'oeuvre , Blue Crab and Shrimp Margarita with Avocado and Mango

 

 

 

Next up , Sushi Grade Ahi Tuna Tartare with Wasabi and Pickled Ginger

 

 

The third appetizer was Roasted New Potatoes with Sour Cream and Osetra Caviar

 

 

And then came an amazing Bistro Fontina Cheese Mini Tartlet and Black Truffle !

 

 

Our last hors D'oeuvres was a Breaded Brie Lollipop and Port Wine and Plum Reduction for dipping .

 

 

A look at some edible art

I was glad to see that the galley part of the tour was ending as juggling a camera , food and a bottomless flute of champagne was taxing my abilities .

And with the galley part of the tour over it was time to move out to the dining area . As we were seated , our menus were waiting for us .

 

 

 

 

After being seated at our table , it was time for the ceremonial closing of the light curtains !

 

 

You can see a video clip of it here :

 

 

The lighted center piece of the table

 

 

It reminds me of a Giant Sea Anemone

 

 

 

...Lobster and asparagus risotto - as rich as it looks ! With Danzante Pinot Grigio

 

 

Roasted Orange and Ginger Sorbet

 

 

Served with Grey Goose Vodka gravy

 

 

Flame on flambe

 

 

 

See the flambe video here :

 

 

 

And Executive Chef Naveen served as his own Saucier !

 

 

With the steak cooking complete , it was time for the second meat course : Dijon crusted Roast Rack of Lamb .

 

 

Enjoy !!

 

 

And don't forget the wine - Zeni Amarone Classico

 

 

With the meat course eaten and enjoyed , we were beginning to feel very full and content . The cheese course was a Baked Camembert De Meaux . And save some room for dessert !

 

 

And with dessert , a dessert wine : A late harvest Sauvignon Blanc .

 

 

Dessert was a chocolate mousse with a milk chocolate shell .

 

 

Extra yummy !

 

 

Also , a choice of gourmandises .

 

 

I settled for an overdressed , out of focus , strawberry ( it must have been the wine ! ) .

 

 

And lastly , the ladies were presented a rose

 

 

And the gentlemen , a 50th anniversary Princess cook book .
