When we get a little tired of the usual fast food, but still want fast food, we turn to our best alternative – Captain D’s. My daughter loves their bite-size shrimps, while I always order the seafood platter. Of course, its not your usual upscale seafood joint (and some of their locations also have some kind of “fishy” ambience, and not in a good way). However, everything is pretty straightforward and it beats your usual burgers and fries combo.
During the Lenten season when we were abstaining from eating meat, Captain D’s was our go-to. But while I love their battered and fried classics, you can only eat so much before the good ole arteries raise the white flag. My Blue Cross NC agent definitely wouldn’t approve.

The picture above is their Grilled Salmon and Shrimp in a Creamy Garlic and Pepper Sauce, a new addition to their menu. It looked good and tasted well during the first few bites, and it was pretty filling, too. However, after a while, I wish I had ordered my usual, hehe! I guess I’m not really a fan of the healthy “grilled” stuff.
Anyway, at least they were trying to improve their menu – that’s more choices for you and me.
