We returned to our cabin.
As any other woman, I struggled to decide – how should I dressed-up? After an hour or so, I put on a ‘small black’, black stockings and black highhills. To feel better I put gentle makeup and silver earrings. My man dressed in a black suite, white shirt and deep blue tie, plus of course matching black and shiny shoes. To complete the picture, I took a small black handbag, a bit of powder on the tip of my nose and off we go.
The main restaurant was located at the aft of the ship and between two decks, 4 and 5, so we took a lift to deck 4. At the entrance the head waiter had welcomed and led us to our table. The table was by the window, so we sit down opposite to see the magnificent sunset. There were two other American couples sharing table with us. We exchange greetings and introduced one to another. After a very short while a waiter arrived and greeted us all, introduced himself and passed menus. There was a rich list of choices, all included, except alcoholic drinks and special orders from the bar. This part of menu was served by another waiter, who arrived a moment later.
From this impressive menu we had for the starter frog’s legs, I didn’t have this pleasure before, and for the main course we had langouste. Tomas, my husband took also a soup of some exotic name but very tasty. From the bar we have ordered sparkling water Perrier, our favourite and two glasses of white wine. For the dessert there was again a range of choices, so I had tiramisu and my husband had a chocolate sponge with ice-cream. The coffee finished our dinner.
The food was delicious and very well prepared and presented as you could expect in a luxurious restaurant, no need to mention that all was served perfectly by sympathetic and smiling waiter.
The restaurant was decorated with taste and opulence, the people were all neatly dressed and smooth music played by a music-band was adding a feel of being like in the palace. (Have you seen film Titanic? That it is).
On the other hand, if you prefer something less formal you can choose to have a dinner in more casual but still very comfortable restaurant and have the same menu. However, you need to request this service at the latest after the breakfast. We did this too, just to have a table for two.
