Pirates Voyage

Beware Matey, the food is excellent!

Arrive early to enjoy the pre-show entertainment and some spirits.  At showtime, be prepared to walk upstairs, as a herd of cattle, and find your seats in the arena-type theatre.  The set was beautiful with ships, water, and live animals.

When the show begins, your server will begin delivering food to your plate while you enjoy the acrobats flying and flipping.  I thought this was just the slow part of the story since it is a bit difficult for me to follow a story while picking at the food on my plate.  However, as we neared the end of the dinner, I realized the show was almost over and there never really was a plot. 

The sound was poor--as if there was recorded voices playing and the gymnastics were lip-synching.  The handful of main characters did have microphones but the sound still was not clear--neither was their pirate-talk.  If it were not for my interest in watching gymnastics, I would not have liked the show as much.

Having visited Pigeon Forge, TN, I expected more from Dolly!

Angelo's Steak & Pasta

I truly enjoyed Angelo's. A local recommended Angelo's claiming that they were voted "best steak." We opted for the buffet instead of a steak. Our server brought beverages and a salad and bread to share, as does Olive Garden.  This ad (left) and their website led me to believe that the place would be tacky but it is very nice.

The buffet, strangely located in a discreet nook, had few selections. It could be a long walk depending where your are seated. The buffet is actually a window off the kitchen with attendants who serve to you. This method allowed me to eat my food without wondering how many snotty hands had touched the tongs.

The lasagna was my absolute favorite. Not as many layers as I expected but the texture and flavor of the ricotta... mmmm... delizioso!

Nance's Creekfront Restaurant

The limited menu selection left me hungry.  I dislike clams and oysters, so I chose two appetizers instead of a meal--a crab cake and shrimp cocktail.  Unless you crave a pot of oysters and a beer, choose a more versatile seafood place.
