Royal Caribbean's —— Romeo & Juliet : Last Supper

The night ended with a final dinner gathering at Romeo & Juliet. As it was the last night of sailing, the ship’s crew surprised dinners with a farewell parade, complete with swinging towels, singing, dancing and all. I will upload the video clip later :)
在皇家加勒比的最后一晚,当然不能错过罗密欧与朱丽叶之最后的晚餐咯。 由于当天是在船上的最后一晚,所以这里有着非常意想不到的节目和欢送派对。整个晚上除了用餐之外,还有唱歌,跳舞,甩毛巾等等。


Introduce the starter, main course and dessert roughly.
大致上地介绍一下当天的晚餐。
Cream of Pumpkin.Candied walnuts and dash of sour cream.
南瓜忌廉汤。上面一片片的是核桃,伴着酸酸甜甜的奶油。

Smoked Fish Tapenade. Sweet onions, tangy capers and fresh herbs complement this fish dish. Served with a golden-brown crostini. This smoked fish tapenade was incredible, I could have eaten this for a full meal. It was up there with one of my all time favorite appetizers.
烟熏三文鱼。其实里面除了三文鱼,还有甜甜的大蒜,浓郁的刺山柑,还有新鲜的香草,旁边再配上烤得金黄色的蒜头面包。该怎么形容这个美味呢?我恨不得每天都可以吃到它啊!!

Potato Gnocchi. Tossed with ham and garden peas in a cream reduction.  I leftover this because they gave large amount. 
马铃薯汤团。伴着火腿丝还有奶油绿豆。因为给的分量实在太多,所以都吃不完:(

Shrimp and Mahi Mahi Tempura. With fried beans, olive preserved vegetables and dipping sauce.
虾和鲯鳅鱼天妇罗。旁边的配料有炒黄豆,橄榄腌制的蔬菜和蘸酱。

Honey Glazed Chicken. With oven roasted seasonal vegetables.So juicy and yummy!! Not so sweet the meat retains moisture.
蜜汁鸡!配菜有用烤箱烤的季节性蔬菜。意想不到的是,鸡腿给得很大一块,而且鸡肉都水分都还锁在里面,吃起来一点也不会干干的,反而很嫩!


Chocolate Brownie Sandwich. Dark bittersweet chocolate mousse wedged between layers of chocolate brownie. Its like the combination of a chocolate bar, a warm glass of milk, and birthday cake all at the same time.
巧克力布朗尼。苦苦甜甜的巧克力慕丝参差在布朗尼巧克力蛋糕里头。感觉就像同时吃着巧克力,一杯新鲜热牛奶还有生日蛋糕一样(什么叙述啊==) 


It was a magical moment for me and I was deeply touched. I glanced around and noticed many of us with tears brimming in our eyes. This was a kitchen crew that made a connection with each and every one of us on board, and it was stunning that they have decided to come out to give thanks to us even as I believed that each of us should thank them for feeding us with delightful food on a daily basis.
这一刻就像是有魔法降临在大家的身上一样,深深地感动着每一个人。我环绕了一下四周,大家的眼角都隐隐约约泛着泪光,(有没有那么夸张哦?)脸上还充满着无比愉快的笑容。厨房里的厨师到为我们服务的侍应生,没有一个不是尽心尽力的。所以当他们全部排着队伍,边跳边唱地出来给我们唱欢送歌以及致词的时候,我们都有被吓到一下。心里面真的很感动,因为他们每一天都喂饱了我们:p 当然,除了喂饱我们之外,更令人感动的是人与人之间的联系呀!

Royal Caribbean's —— Romeo & Juliet (Day 2)

Usually a cruise’s main focus will be on the (free) food.  Not unusual for the Legend, but it’s even more and better food!  Fine dining @ the Romeo and Juliet restaurant is always so delicate and sumptuous. Here's the fine dinning food in Romeo & Juliet again!!
说实话,在船上待那么多天,大家最注重的东西应该就是饮食了。大多数人都应该都有这样的心态,要试就试最好的。反正都是免费,不吃白不吃:p 所以我又回到了罗密欧与朱丽叶餐厅享受上流社会的晚餐以及公主式的服务与待遇。

You would be pampered by waiters and waitresses who will remember your names after the first night! They would remember your preferences such as whether you would like cold/hot water, pepper or not in your soup etc…*clapsssss*
过了第一晚之后,服务生们都会牢牢地记住大家的关系以及名字。不只是这样,他们还会记得你喜欢喝冷水还是热水?食物送到的时候喜不喜欢加胡椒粉,调味料之类的,非常细心。一流这个形容词,我还担心不够用来形容他们的服务态度呢!!在这里给他们鼓掌一下。



I always like to have warm water. Opps, there's a bit different in Day 2 because we decided to order a champagne, LET'S CHEERS!!!!
热水永远都是我的选择。不过今天有点不一样,在大家少数服从多数的决定下,我们开了一支香槟。来为世界和平干杯吧!!2013,我们还活着 :P

I ordered Bay Escargot Gratin as starter. The menu show us Bay Scallop Gratin but it's finish!! So the chef changed scallop into escargot. My waiter Xiao Lian said it taste better in escargot and she's absolutely correct. Escargot in melted garlic-herb butter, served with olive bread stick really taste awesome!
我点了一个焗烤田螺盘。其实餐牌里是写着烤扇贝的,由于扇贝实在是太好吃了,大家点了又点,所以就“卖”完啦!!最后厨师决定将扇贝换成田螺(就是我们说的蜗牛啦),一开始是不怎么愿意的(我真的很爱吃扇贝)不过服务生说田螺其实会比扇贝来得好吃。经过她的洗脑后就忍不住点了。 听服务生的推荐果然是没错的,田螺真的很好吃哇!! 但是担心待会儿会吃不下主菜,所以才忍着没再点。
我最爱的田螺啊~~~~~~~~~~
Asia-Style Chicken Soup. With a chicken-cabbage dumpling, oyster mushroom, bok choy and scallions. Here's come the very huge dumpling :)
男友的亚洲鸡汤。鸡汤里面有着很大颗的水饺,除了水饺,还有平菇,白菜和青葱。

Boyfie's favourite! As he tried the yummeh beef last night, he decided to order beef again, lol....really beef lover. Filet of Beef, Piquant green peppercorn sauce is the perfect partner to this tender cut of beef; served with a mound of creamy whipped potatoes and meaty, sauteed crimini mushrooms..
男友的最爱。自从最晚吃了他们家的牛扒,他一整天就一直吵着想再吃。先生你是有多爱牛肉啊?我知道你看到的xD 。 牛扒和有点辛辣的绿胡椒酱完全就是绝配!再配上青菜,蘑菇还有绝对少不了的马铃薯泥,我真的开始担心过了第二晚之后,他又会一直唠叨着说想再吃他们家的牛扒。

My Roasted Hoisin Glazed Duck.Wok sauteed vegetables and Chinese pancake (po pia). Honestly, the chef is not talented in cooking Asian Food* forgive me* The duck is too salt so I didn't finish it, so wasted!
海鲜釉面鸭。旁边还附上上等的白饭还有薄饼。老实说,我们这桌的厨师好像真的不怎么擅长煮亚洲菜,鸭子太咸了,根本没有办法吃光,好浪费呢 :( 饭和薄饼都吃完了,鸭肉还剩下一大堆。)

Girls have two stomach. Smaller one for main course and the bigger one for DESSERT!!! I have sweet tooth on Day 2 so I can finish 4 desserts. Double Strawberry Cheese Cake. Creamy cheesecake laces with a strawberry swirl. Add a dollop of whipped cream, a spoon full of strawberry compote and enjoy!!
甜点时间。有听说过女人有两个胃吗?小的那个是用来装主食而大的那个是用来装甜点的。刚好第二天的胃口很好,所以我们就不受控制地点了好多甜点。 Double Strawberry Cheese Cake, 草莓酱点缀着美味的起司蛋糕,旁边配上饱满的奶油,再伴着新鲜的一大匙草莓肉。怎么能不流口水呢。

Low fat berry mousse. Light strawberry and bluberry yogurt mousse accompained by a rich-tasting, low-fat vanilla sauce.
低脂浆果慕丝。味道香浓的低脂草莓及蓝莓优格慕丝伴着低脂的香草奶油,即使是老人家也可以很放心地吃哦。

Sugar-free Coconut Vanilla Layer Cake. A Tahitian vanilla mousse rests between layers of moist cake, toasted coconut adds a bit of crunch.
无糖椰子多层蛋糕。大溪地香草慕丝作为底层,中间参杂着烤椰肉和香脆的crunch.
Bittersweet Chocolate Souffle. With each bite, this warm delicacy melt on the tongue to release a hint of slightly bittersweet chocolate served with espresso custard.
苦中带甜,甜中带苦的“梳乎梨”。每一口的巧克力都入口即化,浓浓的咖啡味在嘴里肆无忌惮地释放香味,怎么可能不爱梳乎梨呢!(中间有一段很好笑的插曲。男友正准备要吃的时候,男友的二哥就问说:吃到中间是不是有一粒梨子在里面? 大家都傻了一下,才大笑着对他解释说“梳乎梨”不是真的有梨子在里面啦 xD)

My very bad habit. I always like to have a cup to coffee in the early morning and after meal.
这是我个人的坏习惯,小孩子千万不要学。我习惯在一大早醒来的时候来一杯香醇的咖啡,就连睡前也忘不了咖啡作为我的安眠曲。

A little magic that our waiter perform to us. And we all learned and understand it just like the logic of Eagle Statue in Pulau Langkawi.So easy!!
用餐完毕后,服务生晓莲为我们表演了一小段“魔术”。大家一学就会,其实这“魔术”的原理就和Pulau Langkawi那座老鹰雕像一样。至于是什么原理,那就要让大家去找答案咯 :P

At last but not the least. How can we forget adorable painfully Eason!! Little child of boyfie's relative, cute, lovely and clever!
最后,也是最重要的!怎么可以忘了我们家可爱的Eason呢!!男友亲戚的儿子,又可爱又聪明,只不过不喜欢被搭讪就是了,哈哈。
Please don't misunderstand that he's showing the f**k, he just want to tell his parents that he ate the bread.*adorable*
请不要误会他是在比国际手势哦!其实他只是想告诉他的爸爸妈妈说他很乖地自己把面包吃了下去。

I also wonder what's he doing there :/
我也在好奇着他到底要干嘛


* Leave a lovely comment if you like this little cute boy, Eason :p
* 如果你喜欢这可爱的小孩Eason的话,就请你留下爱的留言吧:p

Royal Caribbean's —— Romeo & Juliet (Day 1)

As I mentioned before, the more and most attractive food post will post continuously THIS WEEK!! All of you will be very looking forward and please visit my blog frequently xD  
Food. That's one of the best things about a cruise. Day or night, there's ALWAYS something available. 
来了来了,之前答应了读者说会尽快上传皇家加勒比的博文,所以我打算这个星期会写一连串的食物篇来荼毒大家,这样一来你们才会一直来看我呀xD (心机好重的女人)
在船上最好的服务之一,就是每天都有24小时不间断的食物选择。


The Romeo and Juliet Dining Room(罗密欧与朱丽叶)

Located on Decks 4 and 5, The Romeo and Juliet main dining room on Legend of the Seas is your two tiered, opulent main dining room. This restaurant's most recent guest reviews suggest great staff service and excellent food. 
就在船上的4楼和5楼,''罗密欧与朱丽叶''是船上最大,也是最华丽的主题餐厅。所以这间餐厅也是最多人去,服务最好的高级餐厅。

Very soon, the sun began to set and it’s about time for dinner soon at Romeo & Juliet restaurant.  Our dinner is at the second seating which is at 8:15pm.  If you’re an early diner, you can request for the 1st seat of dinner when booking your cruise tickets.
很快地,来到了晚餐时间。我们的晚餐时间是安排在第二个时段 8:15pm 。如果你习惯早点吃晚餐的话,在你预订旅程的时候可以通过客服向他们要求第一个时段的。

A waiter and assistant waiter are assigned to your table, and they will be the ones in charge of your table each night. You really see many nationalities serving on board. Our waiter Dadan was from Indonesia, and assistant waiter was Xiao Lian from China who spoke uncannily good English and served us very well. If your parents (second citizen) don't know english, don't worry! Your waiter will give you menu in Chinese and explain each course to you.
每一张桌子都有两位服务生,每一个晚上就是由这两位为你们服务。一眼望过去,感觉很“国际化”,服务生都是来自世界各地的,有韩国,欧美,中国,俄罗斯等国家。而我们这一桌是由一位来自印度尼西亚的Dadan 还有来自中国的晓莲为我们服务。他们的英文说得非常流利,服务也很好。如果家里有老人家不懂得看英文餐牌的话,他们除了会拿中文版的餐牌之外,还会一一向大家解释和介绍当晚的主菜,甜点还有厨师推荐。
The kind folks from the Royal Caribbean invited us for lunch here.

Children below the age of 12(unless under accompany of parents) are not allowed in here and there is a strict dress code to follow for every dinner seating.
就像你们看到的,桌子上都是整齐的刀叉和玻璃杯,所以12岁以下的孩童是禁止进入的(除非有着两位家长的陪同)。而且进来用餐的时候,门口都有一位服装检查员,穿着无袖上衣,短裤还有拖鞋的人士是不被允许进入用餐的哦。


Menu
The first menu presented to us includes the starters and mains.  Although it is a 3-course dinner, we can order as many choices as we like.  Sure we not to order excessively as to avoid unnecessary food wastage :)
这样一个餐牌里面已经很完整地写着前菜和主菜了。虽然是只有3-course, 但是我们可以任点我们想吃的。也就是说,你想试吃哪一种就点哪一种。不过为了避免浪费,所以我们点的都是刚刚好 :)
White Mountain Bread
At the start of the meal, a variety of bread will be served.  Over here, it is a White Mountain Bread which we choose.  It taste like sesame seed with that similar texture and taste.
开始上菜之前,服务生会拿着一大篮面包让你选你要哪一种面包。我选了这个White Mountain Bread, 吃起来就像吃有着瓜子的法国面包

Of course, we can put on some butter :)
当然,他们会提供奶油。

My favourite Caeser Salad, I can finish it everytime! 
我最爱的Caeser Salad, 每一次我都将它吃光。

Boyfie  had the Sopa De Tortilla for starter which is robust Mexican tomato soup garnished with fried julienne tortilla.  It is very appetizing and with the tortilla, it makes the soup interesting with crispy bits to chew on.
男友点了一个墨西哥番茄汤,里面配有玉米粉圆饼。想不到这个简简单单的玉米粉圆饼可以将蕃茄汤的味道提升,喝一口甜甜的蕃茄汤,然后再咬一口脆脆的玉米粉圆饼,很是享受。


And I had my Sweet Corn Soup which is creamy soup loaded with chicken bites and crabmeat. It's awesome with the crabmeat, it make the soup refreshing and the crabmeat more than chicken bites.
而我点了一个玉米浓汤,里面有着鸡丁块还有螃蟹肉。难以形容这种美味,玉米和螃蟹肉的味道很分明,螃蟹肉的鲜味完全不会盖掉玉米汤的甜味。

For the main, Boyfie had the Slow-Roasted Prime Rib (Medium Rare)due to he is a beef lover.  The rib is so tender and juicy. Juicy cut of beef served with tasty horseradish au jus and mashed potatoes. 631 Sequoia Grove, Cabernet Sauvignon, California ∙ bottle 71. I am sure you must be drooling at it right now!
终于上主菜啦!男友是牛肉爱好者(不过也不是经常吃),所以不难猜到他会点这一份慢烤肋排牛肉(5分熟)。牛肉依然非常多汁(是多汁,不是多血,所以不用担心,真的烤得很嫩),配上他们特制的酱料还有马铃薯泥,味道非常好!

It's my Miso Pesto Brushed Atlantic Salmon with Japanese ratatouille and steamed rice. 652 La Crema, Chardonnay, Russian River,California  bottle 68This was recommended by our waiter and chef. The salmon was done nicely, not too overcooked, and the black bean sauce added a savoury Asian touch.
轮到我的三文鱼上桌啦,除了三文鱼之外,还配有日本素菜和白饭。这都是服务生还有厨师推荐的,果然没有让我们失望。三文鱼煮得刚刚好,不会不熟也不会过熟,所以三文鱼肉很分明,很容易割开。日本素菜里头还有少许酱油,吃起来有点像亚洲菜。

After the main course was over, we were presented with a dessert menu, it’s very difficult to make 1 choice everything on the menu is so tempting! I didn't order any dessert but my boyfie did. Right here is the Chocolate Cherry Cake which is classic flavor combination in a cake; served with a dollop of Kirsch cream and topped with a scoop of sugar free luscious vanilla ice-cream.
吃过了主菜后,服务生就递给了我们每人一份甜点餐牌。有史以来最难做决定的就是这一次了,因为餐牌里面的甜点叙述都好吸引人。不过,我没点xD 但幸好男友点了,不然大家就看不到甜点了。第一张是巧克力樱桃蛋糕(想不到男友会喜欢这样的蛋糕==) ,再配上Kirsch Cream, 而第二张是少糖香草雪糕,老人家也可以吃。
On the Legend of the Seas, the desserts are the best as the pastry chef is professional at making mouth watering desserts which I can’t help but to ask for more to satisfy my sweet tooth.
在这一趟船上,甜点是厨师们的拿手“好戏”,而且卖相和味道都是大家公认地一流的哦!
My intimate waiter Xiao Lian know I'm having stomach upset, so she get me a special plate of fresh fruit. No printed in menu yet you can request fruit from your waiters.
我那桌的服务生很贴心,知道我的肠胃不好,吃不下甜点了,所以到厨房特别为了我准备了一碟新鲜水果,帮助消化。光看卖相就赢完了:p 餐牌上没有水果,但是你们可以向你们的服务生要求。
This is only first night dinning in Romeo & Juliet, please looking forward to 2nd night and 3rd night :p
这只是第一天的晚餐,接下来我会在这个星期内更新完第2天和第3天的罗密欧与朱丽的主题晚餐,所以大家千万不要错过,也不要转台哦。
