I still haven't tried to replicate it at home, but I suspect it just wouldn't taste quite the same if you weren't sitting in a castle sipping it out of a metal bowl with a piece of garlic toast for dipping. I posted it ( click here for recipe) on the blog and it has received many views.
I love this stuff.Ī couple years ago their PR firm sent out a release to media that included the recipe. Let me make my plea right now to the royalty at the castle to PLEASE start selling this stuff in one-quart to-go containers as you leave. It begins with a tomato bisque a.k.a Dragon's Blood Soup. The meal is served Medieveal-style sans silverware, but it's stuff you can easily eat with just your hands.

It's full of color and pageantry and music and bright lights and stuns the senses. We had the black and white knight.Īs they start bringing out the beverages and meal, the show begins. The king, queen, knights and all the others working at the castle stay in character throughout the night, referring to guests as "My Lady" and "My Lord" in an old English accent.Īs you enter you are assigned to a seating section and it's your job to cheer on the knight in the color corresponding to your section - the green section roots for the green knight, red for the red knight, etc.
The place is designed and styled like a castle so you really feel like you've gone back in time a bit when you're there. It can be hard to find things that teenagers get excited about doing with their parents and I was really happy we were able to work this into the Christmas break itinerary. And from a mom's perspective, it was a tad more enjoyable than when I took them as toddlers. Dragging teenage boys away from the Xbox isn't easy, but they had no complaints as I shared our plans. Now that we have a houseful of teens, it turned out to be something that they really enjoyed. I tell everyone that if you have never been there, it's something you really need to experience at least once. It had been many years since I had been to Medieval Times Chicago castle, so on the holiday break I gathered up the family and we made our way to the cool castle in Schaumburg.
