Health Warning: This Post will make you envious and very hungry!
I'm writing this post on Saturday evening 27th April 10.00pm as the MS AmaVenita cruises the Rhine on our way to Namedy tomorrow afternoon, so cruising through the night.
One of the many experiences offered on this cruise is an opportunity to dine at the Chefs Table. This is a smaller restaurant in the stern of the vessel that can seat 28 guests to enjoy a Taster Menu prepared by one of the Chefs aboard. Lesley & Bob invited me to join them on our first evening to celebrate our reunion and toast another adventure together.
Our Taster Menu with associated wines was prepared by our Indonesian Chef and was a fusion menu. We had 7 courses in all as illustrated in the photos. I don't have the menu so I can't give you the ingredients of each course, but it included Salmon and Braised Rib of Beef. A delicious meal enlivened with an evening of reminiscences.
Today Sat 27th has been wet & cold for a visit this morning to the Zaanse Schans Windmill Village. Interesting but very busy. It's the Kings Holiday Weekend here in the Netherlands with 4 days of celebrations. We have also passed through the first 2 of the 68 locks on this voyage. Just to whet your appetite for more postings tomorrow!
It's 'Goodnight' from Germany and it's 'Goodnight' from me.
