For my birthday this year, I celebrated with friends with jousting and feasting at Medieval Times. I saw a similar dinner show at Excalibur in Las Vegas when I was in high school. I remembered the show was really fun. 20 years later, I would like to experience that again. haha...
There were 15 of us. Our show started at 8:15pm. Dr. P and I arrived around 7pm and hang out with friends in the outdoor courtyard. We went to the bar to grab drinks. Man, their drinks were expensive. Beer was like $7, $18, or $25 with different cups/mugs. You do get to keep the drink containers as souvenir. But still, so expensive. So we opted for wine. Surprisingly, their wine was a lot more affordable. A bottle of wine is only $20. Around 8pm, we went to the lobby area to wait to go inside. Normally seating is first come first serve. Since we were a big party, our seat was already arranged. Nice!
We were seated in the "red" section, and FIRST ROW! Woohoo~~~~
Our "wench" presented us the menu, which was printed on napkin.
There he was, our red knight!
Tomato Bisque / Garlic Bread
No utensil at Medieval Times. We had to eat everything with hands. We were all so hungry. I finished the Tomato Bisque and Garlic Bread in like minutes. The tomato soup was really yummy. Garlic Bread was very good, too.
Since English is my second language, I like to watch movies on DVDs with subtitle. Medieval accent and words are hard to understand sometime. I kept on thinking, "I need subtitle!" haha...
There were six knights in the tournament. Our long haired knight looked like a winner to me!
Cute horses doing tricks.
We were sitting right under the thrones. King, princess, and the prince were all up there.
Roasted Chicken / Spare Rib / Herb-Roasted Potato
When our waitress brought the roasted chicken, she told us it was baby dragon that tastes like chicken. haha so funny. Sorry I was so hungry and ate a leg already before taking a picture. The chicken was very moist. Spare Rib was delicious! I wanted more. I wanted a full rack of ribs!! Herb-Roasted Potato was very yummy, too.
This was the prince. He really looked like a prince. He looked like one of those princes from Disney cartoons.
Pastry of the Castle / Coffee
Apple turnover for dessert with hot coffee. Yum! Food was surprisingly very good at Medieval Times!
Woodbridge Marlot ($20.00)
This was the $20 Woodbridge Marlot we had. 2 bottles! I drank most of it because Dr. P had to drive me http://www.eileenlikestoeat.com. According to him, after we got http://www.eileenlikestoeat.com, I passed out on the floor after throwing up in the bathroom. I woke up the next day and didn't remember how I got to bed. I think I had a really good time? haha...
Guess what? Our red knight won!!!! I knew it! That totally made my night!
Too bed we didn't get a group picture with everyone. We kinda all got lost in the crowd after the show. Thanks to all my friends who were there celebrating the special day with me. I had a really good time, and hope you all did, too! Happy birthday to me! Woohoo~~~~
Those were the birthday presents I received on that night. Super super yummy chocolate covered strawberries from Edible Arrangements. Thank you, Sybil & Andy!!!!
Hand-made candle and a Icing makeup kit. Thank you, Joanne!
Konad Stamping Nail Art seems like fun. Will have to try it soon! Thank you, Sharon!
Also thank you Jen for the red envelope!! :-)

If you don't mind there is no "arrangement", I can make more chocolate dipped strawberries next time! >D<
ReplyDeleteYES YES YES YES!

竟然錯過時機
ReplyDelete遲來的生日快樂祝福
祝妳永遠年輕美麗 有口福又吃不胖 永遠幸福w/Dr. P ^_^.
好幾年前我也來過這裡 就拼命吃 拼命叫就對了 :)-
上個月我也和朋友去隔壁的海盜秀慶生
秀是海盜比較好玩一些些 吃是騎士贏
玩得開心最重要 ^_^
生日快樂!!
K.J
謝謝KJ的祝福 :-)
你說的跟我朋友說的一樣耶
他們說海盜秀蠻好看的但是東西不怎麼好吃
騎士秀的東西很好吃
其實那天我們也沒期待食物有多好吃因為主要是看秀
結果餐點出乎意料的好吃
看這個真的要一直叫很投入才好玩
所以一定要來喝點小酒先才會更投入啦哈哈哈哈
Ha, fun! I've never been to Medieval Times, but it sounds like something one must do in life. I have to admit, the food sounds better than I expected!
ReplyDeleteYou should try it once.
It's a lot of fun! My friends were all saying it's a show for kids.
But we all ended up having a blast! Alcohol definitely made it even more fun. haha...
