At Sea - Costa Atlantica Day 6

It was good to get a break and be able to sleep in.

Lunch

Fish and avocado salad? I just remember this being good.


Pork - a nice mild flavor but dry texture.


Florentine cake - a cross between a pecan pie and fruit cake.


At the buffet - Squid, lamb, and a pasta dish

Farewell Gala Dinner. Another dress up dinner which this time was supposed to be formal but the people were even less dressy this time. They don't rent tuxes like other ships.

Tartare di manzo con pomodori secchi - beef tartare with dried tomatoes, taggiasche olives, and toasted pine nuts. I didn't bother to take a photo because I was stunned that a raw patty bigger than a McDonald's hamburger was placed before it. The few bites I took were good but I'm afraid of getting worms like everybody else. What I was expecting was a carpacio but I must have had a brain fart. No photo.


Bigoli con gamberetti e asparagi in salso al basilico - bigoli pasta with shrimps and asparagus in a basil sauce


Quaglia arrosto - roasted tender quails stuffed with savoury country filling, served with Lambrusco wine sauce, mashed pumpkins, and red chichory season with balsamic vinegar

There was no dessert selection but rather a farewell cake of what was supposed to be Baked Alaska but there was no ice cream in it. No photo taken.
