CAPE MAY CON'T
Sorry this isn't green, now for some reason my bold, colors, underline etc. won't work
As you can see I took pictures of a good part of the buffet but not all because it was really crowded! After getting our drinks - water for Ricky, soda for Chris, some type of beer for Steve and weirdly out of character for me, unsweetened iced tea (felt better but still not myself), we made our way up to fill our first plates:
Me: cornbread, caesar salad, chicken marsala, a pesto pasta, and a piece of focaccia bread
The caesar salad was delicious. I'd had it the first time we ate here and it was just as good. I also enjoyed the pesto pasta and both breads; the chicken marsala, which you can see has small pieces of chicken in it, was just ok. Steve makes an awesome chicken marsala and it's hard for me to find another I like, but this wasn't bad otherwise.
Steve's first plate: the pesto pasta, chicken marsala with all the chicken eaten, carrots and beans and a piece of the baked salmon.
Steve said the salmon was out of this world. I wish I'd taken a picture of the sign describing it because I cannot remember at all what's on top. He also liked the veggies as both were seasoned and cooked well. He liked the chicken in the marsala but preferred the pesto pasta.
Ricky: caesar salad, mac and cheese and a drumstick:
He loved it all which surprised me because I don't think he's ever eaten a drumstick lol. He thought the mac and cheese was heavenly
And we have Chris:
I assume this is self-explanatory? He thought this pizza beat the BW window pizza lmao! The first time we were here he ate about 20 ribs and I thought he'd do the same this time, but when he ordered ribs at lunch I forgot we were eating here tonight or I would have suggested he have something else. He wasn't in the mood for ribs again.
Steve's 2nd plate: antipasto salad and shrimp:
And I just realized he had another Moscow Mule here instead of beer! As an aside, he's tried ordering Mule's pretty much every time we've been out since this trip, and the majority of restaurants don't make them because they don't carry the ginger beer. He's taken to just making them at home or rather, having my best friend Valerie make them here for him...........
Oops, I'm all over the place here! Along with Ricky's first plate he got a bucket of mussels. Some of you know he loooooves him some mussels but he wasn't blown away by these as he thought they were on the chewy side. Steve enjoyed them though:
My sad second plate #notwellinDisney:
mashed potatoes, antipasto salad, beef tenderloin:
All was good! That's horseradish sauce next to the meat which I love. This particular piece was a bit on the rare side for me but I could still eat it and it was almost like butter. Not like butter, but almost. Mashed potatoes were nice and creamy and I always enjoy an antipasto salad.
Chris decided to try the crab legs:
He liked them but getting the meat out was way too much work for him and he stated that you are NOT supposed to have to work for your food. I'm not sure how he expects to eat once we kick him out of the house, but that's not going to be my concern at that point, thank God. He apparently had some mac and cheese himself and for whatever reason I have no picture of that plate.
Steve's final plate which is basically a repeat of previously tried foods, but it looks nice so I'm posting it:
I'm going to stop here and put dessert and the end of our night in another post because it's a little late and I'm tired, and with the pictures I have left this will go to 4 different posts lol! Overall we enjoyed the dinner buffet. Some foods were good and some were real good; the only thing that anyone felt wasn't good were the mussels and that was Ricky. We'd come here again but probably not for our next couple trips, however if you are a seafood lover I think it's a great non-signature option.
Next up, Cape May dessert and more dessert!

And yes the coach has been fantastic! He's been walking Ricky to some classes too lol and like I mentioned, guaranteed Ricky a spot on Varsity next year. Knowing he's not done with basketball because he has to miss this season is what's keeping Ricky going.
