Yes - didnβt do Morimoto but the fish offered is better IMO and cooked well. Have been on Rotterdam and that ship could cook fish (transatlantic sailing) and several other fish aficionados agree with me. Sailing on the Volendam and the fish has been with more choices and well prepared. In fact, I just had rockfish tonight which I very much enjoyed.

We are in Quebec and it is C-C-COLD. That evil polar arctic wind has followed us the whole way. The whole forecast I looked at before packing has been wrong, wrong, wrong. Weβre Canadian and know what spring is like. This has NOT been even the beginning of spring. Praying for warmer weather tomorrow as I booked a lovely private tour for the two of us. My foot and legs are in recovery mode (pre-cruise) so for once I put my thinking cap on and we are going on a bike tour. Weβre not riding them - we are in the βcartβ and our guide rides the bike. I asked him today if he had blankets or if we should bring them from the ship π. He does. Weather permitting - weβre doing it. Hopefully it warms up as the day goes on. Itβs been the absolutely worse weather of any cruise I have ever done. Talked to a crew member this morning and he said that there are 3 weeks that this one can have miserable weather. ironically, this one last year had good weather. Kazu just picked the wrong time LOL. But we are still making the best of it π

So the cake display was on yesterday. We missed it - it wasnβt in the Daily at all and we were on the wrong side of the LIdo. No announcement either. when we went to our PG lunch, I saw it had been added to the Navigator app; Reports were it was prettier than it tasted π Great fellow Canadian roll call members @catletwere kind enough to share the photo they got.

In the interest of scientific research, I ordered the escargot again. one was enough. way overdone and rubbery. Bamboozled how they could screw this up when most of the food is really good. the chef came along later to inquire how we were enjoying our food. I told her it was quite good except for the escargot. And I told her how i prepared them and the other ships we had been on. she said she appreciated the feedback and was making notes

sorry I saw this too late to get yesterdayβs menu for you. Today and tomorrow aww both port days however I have noticed there is usually one item varied on this cruise, that is a really good idea. I will share with her. Itβs not tne money for her but the principle she got nothing. Supposedly the products were used on her despite The NOβS. exactly.
