Sailaway Dinner from Ålesund

Tonight was a special “Chef’s Market Dinner.” The menu at the Terrace Café featured Norwegian salmon, shrimp, reindeer, whale, and other delicacies that the Executive Chef had picked up from a local market.

That this special dinner was on a warm-enough-to-sit-outdoors evening made for an excellent al fresco dinner opportunity. That the timing coincided with Nautica’s 7:00p sailaway from Ålesund made for a dinner-with-views. That no one in our group had alternate dining plans was a bonus, giving us a chance to regale each other with how we all took advantage of a great day in port.
