Last night some of us decided to dine out and went to "The Med" a mediterranean restaurant in Port Lucaya. A perfect night for dining outside. I ordered the seafood medley with pasta. Now I knew it wouldn't be the same as in Ontario but was still a bit surprised at what appeared on my plate. It was sort of like Survivor or Fear Factor. Oysters on the half shell, tolerable but I didn't like them. Lobster (with some of the tail bone still attached), easily dealt with and tasty. Shrimp - no problem. Calamari (fancy name for squid but they can't fool me) - really ugly looking huge white chunks, unmistakably tentacle material - way too chewy, way too big. But the worst was tiny baby squids, could count the legs. Didn't taste bad but the legs tickled my tongue and I could only eat one. Totally grossed me out.
Tonight Betty fed us a scrumptious sweet and sour chicken and stir fry. Enjoyed it much more than the fancy restaurant food. Thanks Betty.
