Chef Sebastiano created an off the menu dinner for us tonight – what a great way to end the cruise! We were in the Italian restaurant and we mentioned we hadn’t seen him and he came out and then cooked us all the food you see – we were a table of 6 – we need a nap now. He is the Chef you see us with in the cooking classes and is a great guy and a fabulous chef. I (Dave) might have even learned a thing or two – I know hard to believe

: Brochuto – yes for my Ecuadorian friends those are REAL olives.

: Not sure what this was other than GREAT! It was a pasta in a roll and not boiled – was great

: Meatballs with pearl onions – four to a dish

: Pasta dish with Pancetta and sausage

: Main course…Steaks with wonderful spices and as you can see seafood and veggies. Yes that is crisp Kale on the side. WOW
