The Treasure Island dinner party menu

The food mentioned in Treasure Island wasn’t quite realistic for a dinner party, so I took my inspiration from Trinidad and Jamaica- popular hang outs of pirates in history. Realistically, you don’t need as many dishes as what I prepared for eight people, but I always prefer to overfeed people. I’ll be posting the recipes each day for the next week and a bit, and will link as I go. Otherwise, you can keep checking back to the main Treasure Island page on this blog.
