I am constantly on a diet.
No it’s not low carb or high protein. I don’t eat bucketfuls of kale nor do I slurp on green smoothies. It’s a simple regime I can easily stick to – even on cruises.
Want to know what it is? It is the seefood diet. I see food and I eat it.
Very funny Honey.
Anyway, this lame joke is the perfect segue into a wonderful new dining feature being introduced on P&O’s Pacific Dawn called, Shell & Bones Seafood & Grill.
Debuting in March, the seafood (not see-food) restaurant will feature delicious fares from the ocean, such as Singapore-style crab from Queensland and steamed Australian blue mussels from South Australia.
The eatery will be part of the The Pantry, during the day and open as a dedicated restaurant – with bookings available, walk-ins welcome and á la carte pricing – at night.
If you’re after something extra, Shell & Bones will also offer items from the grill such as beef short ribs and Portuguese-style roast chicken – as well as vegetarian options.
P&O Cruises President Sture Myrmell said the cruise line was hoping to make a splash with the new dining experience, which will be added during Pacific Dawn’s multimillion dollar refurbishment in Singapore.
“There’s really no better time to enjoy seafood than during a holiday at sea," Sture said.
"With Shell & Bones, we’ve created a restaurant that captures the way Australians love to eat: with a great menu, the company of family and friends, and the ocean by your side.
“We think it will be the perfect complement to The Pantry concept, which has already proved so popular on our other ships,” he said.
* Pacific Dawn will return to Brisbane on March 16 following her drydock in Singapore.
