Xiaobian also wants to talk to you about some food strategies for ferry travel. In fact, there are many things that everyone should care about when participating in ferry travel, so it is more convenient to travel only after knowing it in detail. Let's take a look together.
disinfection! Disinfect! Disinfect!
The two biggest hazards on a cruise ship are infection and fire. Therefore, there are no articles that may cause open flames, such as electric irons and matches. Smoking must be carried out in designated smoking areas.
Secondly, all restaurants on board have automatic cleaning liquid. Put your hand on it, and the machine will automatically squeeze out the hand sanitizer (containing alcohol). Just rub your hands for about 2 seconds. Don't bother!
1. Drinks and drinks package.
In the previous quantum of the seas Raiders, it was written that the price of users in China was reduced, and the lowest level beverage package was $9 per person per night, but the brochure we saw on the boat said $22. Because we don't drink much, we didn't buy it either, and we're not sure whether it was $9 when we actually bought it. If there are tourists on the same voyage, please add it.
According to the supplement of qyer's "Lin Xi", the cheapest drink package now is $22 a day, which can be used in Starbucks
and robot bars (non-alcoholic drinks), and you can also enjoy freshly squeezed juice or carbonated drinks in restaurants
, which shows that the drinks package on board has been restored to the same price as that on foreign routes, and tourists who like drinks should not hesitate to place an order. If we don't like drinks, we should give more consideration.
2. Free meals.
The free restaurants on board mainly include Grandi, Geek, Aiken Barbecue, Silk Road, Sailing Buffet, Coastal Kitchen (exclusive to guests in suites), sorrento Pizza House, SEAPLEX Hot Dog House, Cafe Royal Plaza and 27 Coffee Bar. Quantum-class ships have introduced the concept of urban dining, changing the form of the traditional cruise ship's three-story main restaurant. Of course, at present, the route in China is still dining in two batches at 5:3 and 8:. According to their own dining batches, you can dine in any restaurant. If there are many people in the restaurant, you may need to queue up at the door.
Because we are a silver room card this time, except for a casual lunch at the sailing buffet on the day of boarding, all the others went to the coastal kitchen restaurant or the paid restaurant, so the four main restaurants, Grandy, Geek, Aiken Barbecue and Silk Road, didn't try it, so we can't comment on their catering. You can refer to other travel notes to have a look. Personally, I have seen guests waiting in line at the free restaurant during meal time. It should be that the ship is trying to control the flow and avoid overcrowding in the restaurant.
This is our room card.
All the rooms below the level of p>SPA suite are blue, and the rooms above the level are gold. Quantum of the seas mentioned in the promotion that in addition to the traditional room card, a wristband-type room card will be placed in the room, similar to a small watch, which is convenient for tourists to carry and use. However, on the routes departing from domestic ports, at present, only gold card users will issue wristband-type room cards, which is a little regrettable.
Sailing cafeteria
The whole restaurant is very large, and there are many dining tables, but the types of food are actually repeated, which is designed for the convenience of guests in different seating areas. You can buy drinks for a fee in the restaurant. Free drinks include milk, coffee, juice, etc., and some teabags are available. Remind everyone to be polite to each other when taking meals, and consciously queue up. Pay attention to cleaning the countertop after the operation of the beverage area, and don't leave sundry garbage to the guests behind.
sorrento Pizza House and Royal Plaza Cafe
This is the captain's reception on the second day of sailing, and tourists are taking photos with the officer on board. Behind them is the Cafe Royal Plaza. What is not photographed on the left side of the photo is sorrento Pizza House.
This is a free shrimp hot dog from the Cafe Royal Avenue. It tastes great!
The two restaurants are actually connected, and the dining area is also used by * * *, both of which are next to the Royal Plaza on the 4th floor. Cafe Royal Plaza offers a variety of baked desserts, boiled water, coffee, milk (both hot and cold), teabags and so on. Sorrento Pizza House offers a variety of freshly baked pizzas, which are well-stocked, and the cheese is very fragrant. The dining table also provides some sauces, such as mustard sauce, ketchup, salad dressing and so on.
27 coffee bar
This is a photo of the 27 lobby. Please forgive me for not taking a photo of the coffee bar. It is right next to the 27 entrance, offering self-service salads, various baked desserts, various sandwiches and hamburgers, boiled water, coffee, milk (skimmed and full-fat), tea bags and so on.
SEAPLEX hot dog house
The small front of the car is the sign of the hot dog house. You can see the hot dog house from the side door (not the door on the front) when you enter the Seaplex multi-functional sports hall.
the hot dog house is located in the corner of the SEAPLEX multi-functional sports ground on the 14th floor. It provides a variety of hot dog sausages and side dishes, as well as self-service sauce packets. There is no boiled water here, only ice water is provided. In order to prevent tourists from being burned after an accident, the ship has considered these details very carefully!
Coastal Kitchen Restaurant
This restaurant is located on the 14th floor, next to the entrance of the sailing cafeteria. According to the strategy I have seen before, the coastal kitchen restaurant was originally only open to guests in the Golden Card Suite (GS Suite and above), and the silver card guests can have a dinner, but the actual experience shows that the silver card guests can also eat there three times a day.
advantages: the environment is elegant, the service is in place, the floor-to-ceiling glass looks at the sea, it is relatively quiet, and there are big lobsters every night.
Disadvantages: The floor is high, and you will feel a little shaky if you sail at high speed or encounter heavy waves. The menu for breakfast, lunch and evening is different, but the menu for every day remains the same.
The whole restaurant is American style combined with Mediterranean flavor, so the bread before meals is naturally strong Mediterranean style. Great pre-dinner bread, praised by my wife after eating it
This is the daily lunch menu, and grilled shrimp salad and ginseng chicken soup are highly recommended! Other dishes can be ordered according to everyone's taste, but don't waste it! The menu says no monosodium glutamate, and the ginseng chicken soup in the photo is very delicious.
This is the unfermented flat bread in the middle line of the menu. Personally, it is a rectangular pizza made of crispy slices of bread, which is cut into six equal parts for convenience. I have eaten two slices in the photo, and the cheese tastes great!
compared with the free lobster tails provided by other free restaurants on the last sailing day, this is the real lobster! ! ! Besides, it's in the coastal kitchen restaurant every night!
Except tremella aurantialba is a Chinese dessert, all other western desserts are sweet to the dregs, so people who love sweets should not miss it!
3. paid catering.
it mainly includes Wonderland fairyland, CHOPSGRILLE steakhouse, chef chef's dining table (inside steakhouse), IZUMI spring Japanese cuisine, Jamie
Oliver's Italian restaurant and various bars. I will put some photos of high-energy food in every restaurant we have been to. Please HOLD it!
Wonderland fairyland
I ate dinner here on the first night of boarding, and it was $39 per person. I made an appointment with the APP when I was waiting in line in the tent (friends who are eager to jump here should go back to the boarding article to learn how to make an appointment). The main dish is the creative molecular dishes popular in Europe and America, but the taste is salty. Please be prepared psychologically. Due to the management of the restaurant, although the menu is provided, you can't order by yourself. The kitchen prepares meals according to the number of guests and provides almost fixed meals every day. To say the root cause, I think molecular cooking is very troublesome and time-consuming. If you really order according to the menu, it will be difficult to prepare meals and manage in the kitchen. Instead of keeping the guests waiting for a long time, it is better to prepare in advance!
The style of the whole restaurant is rather dim, from the decoration to the clothes of the waiters, it is full of the visual sense of "Alice in Wonderland". The photo above is the menu of the restaurant, mainly for guests to experience. Dip a little magic water (tap water) with a brush and cover the whole menu. After a while, the dishes will appear.
The tableware in the restaurant is very chic, with crooked forks.
The bottle of Evian on the table was recommended by the waiter. At that time, I brought a bottle of sparkling water and this bottle of Evian. I didn't know it was free until I finished checking out. Please pay attention, and be sure to raise my awareness of preventing fooling! Remember to say regular
water to the waiter if you only need to drink boiled water when eating in a restaurant.
all kinds of high-energy molecular dishes ahead, please sit still!
The unique spoon contains olives that have been "reassembled". The waiter told us not to bite them with our teeth, but to crack them with our tongues. The olive juice mixed with many raw materials is very refreshing! As it turns out, it is really refreshing, but it is also very salty!
This dish is repackaged bacon with a little caviar. It's really delicious and salty!
this dish is the one in the official promotional video, which is covered with a hood and opens a cloud of smoke.
The waiter introduced it this way: break the boiled eggs, dig out the yolk, break them up, add the most expensive goat cheese in the world, refill the egg whites, and serve with tempura pieces and a little Thai hot sauce. It is really delicious!
Let's take a look at the video. The equipment and lighting conditions are limited and slightly dim. Please forgive me! The background music in the video is played in the Royal Square outside the restaurant, not the music in the restaurant.
At the moment when this humble little square was put into your mouth, the thick French foie gras rushed into your mouth, which was delicious and strong. Great! It's a pity that each person only has one
dish filled with fresh crab meat, and there is a small grain of freshly ground wasabi sauce at the bottom of the shell made of waffles, which is not the toothpaste-style mustard sauce, and the taste is not so strong. This is the real "mustard sauce". The top green is guacamole with other ingredients, and the black is decorative seaweed silk.
green sour lemon is cut and hollowed out, and fresh tuna sashimi is put in, with the sauce made by the chef. The white top is crushed ice made of ice and lemon juice, which is very sour! My wife doesn't like sashimi very much, so I basically finished it. It's great!
main course: stewed beef with bread crumbs and baked potatoes. When the waiter brought it, my wife and I were directly scared! ! ! In fact, the previous appetizers have already felt full, because they are all high-protein foods.
until the end of this dish, we put all our energy into it, but only the small piece on the right side was dropped, and a little bit on the side of the large piece was added, which was really unbearable, but the taste was really great, the meat was very soft and rotten, and it was served with red wine juice.
another main course: fried cod with rice. At the top is the slice of bread, next to the bottom is the fried cod, which is very fresh, and at the bottom is the strip-shaped rice from India and Southeast Asia. When it is cooked, it is mixed with cheese, which is very fragrant, and it is very good with "sauce made of more than 2 spices" (introduced by the waiter). The sauce should be based on curry, mixed with fruit vinegar and a little spicy taste, which can just relieve greasy taste.
the dessert that continues to be sweet to the dregs actually tastes good, but it is too sweet.
Careful people should have found some small objects hanging in the cabin introduction room. Yes, this is the theme of our cruise-the second wedding anniversary!
I'd like to thank the customer service super brother! Since I put forward the need for room decoration and other services, he has been keeping an eye on the cruise company for me to negotiate, and finally determined that it is the anniversary decoration of the room and an anniversary cake. Of course, the price is a little expensive, but it's worth it! )
the HAPPYAnniversary sticker posted on the door makes our room unique!
happy anniversary, decorated pendant!
There are stickers on the dresser glass and a photo frame on the table.
PS. The two bottles of water on the table are free, only available on the first day of boarding, and then they are gone. The two bottles of Evian behind the photo frame are charged.
Back to the huge chocolate cake, when the waiter brought it for us, my wife was shocked! According to my observation, this cake should be taken from the baking area of the sailboat cafeteria, and there is a charge. The waiter sang songs specially for us and took photos for us. As we really couldn't eat, we asked the waiter to give us a small piece and take the rest back to our room.
As soon as I got back to my room, I saw a cake with a little more ingredients and a plate full of chocolate rolls. I can only say that the taste is really good, but the amount is too large!
PS. regarding this cake, I was overcharged by $25 due to the connection problem between the various departments on board, and I was successfully returned. Please refer to the last special guide for specific operation methods.
CHOPSGRILLE STEAKhouse
CHOPSGRILLE is a global chain restaurant, featuring Steak Steak and SEA
FOOD seafood. It only serves dinner at $35 per person, and each person can order two appetizers, one main course and the last dessert, which is sufficient and suitable for a big stomach king! The chef's dining table is in the steakhouse, and only a dozen seats are provided every day. Of course, the charge is also very high.
PS. When we boarded the ship, the steakhouse was promoting. At noon on the last sailing day, there would be a seafood buffet dinner at $5 per person, which was cancelled because of my wife's eczema. I had an appointment before.
Very good, pure American garlic bread (salty), eaten with butter, has been sliced, but the bottom has not been cut, so you need to tear it by yourself. It tastes great!
appetizer: fried scallops, two words-fresh and tender!
appetizer: prawns, because they are really delicious, I didn't think of taking pictures until I finished eating. Please forgive me. On the left is slightly spicy tomato sauce, and on the right is slightly spicy cucumber.
this is also an appetizer, a whole piece of fried bacon, you dare to believe it! ! !
I went to the steakhouse for dinner on the last sailing day. My wife wore a short Chinese cheongsam, which was beautiful!
before serving the main course, I changed to a steak knife, nice!
A standard portion of filet mignon looks like a small piece. It takes a certain strength to eat it all! It tastes great.
have a cross section and see how thick the steak is. My wife asked me why foreign steaks are so delicious, and quoted the Italian chef, the owner and chef of a local Italian restaurant, as saying, "Because our cows were born to make steaks!"
Side dishes of steak: asparagus and mashed potatoes
Vanilla ice cream, and my wife ate matcha ice cream with a little almond flavor.
JamieOliver's Italian restaurant
Jamie
Oliver, a famous British chef, can be found in various food videos. This restaurant is an Italian restaurant chain founded by himself, offering lunch ($15) and dinner ($25). We went to dinner this time and had a great experience.
facing the small blackboard in my seat, you can make delicious food with your heart!
The waiter in a restaurant in China thinks this jamie is a little cocky, but what he advocates is keeping the taste of fresh ingredients, which also meets my requirements for food. Jamie's food video has been playing on the TV in the restaurant.
all kinds of Italian food raw materials hanging in the restaurant are not fake, they are all really edible!
learn from teaching.
