Lunch must not have been very impressive because I didn't make any notes about it. I do remember being very impressed (and somewhat intimidated) by the size of the dining hall, as well as the huge selection of different foods to eat. There were kitchens serving food from different cuisines from around the world everywhere you turned, and when people began lining up for food it was difficult to work out where one queue ended and another one began. It was equally frustrating, trying to find a table to sit at.
Dinner was far easier on the brain. We had reserved a table at the restaurant for every night of the cruise, to make things easier and avoid the mind boggling crowds. At the restaurant we were presented with a menu which had entrees and main courses on it. For my entrée I had a satay chicken skewer, served on a bed of glass noodles. The chicken was very tough and difficult to swallow, but the noodles were very tasty, soft and delicious. I had spinach and cheese ravioli served with a bechemel sauce as my main course, and for dessert I had a very light and delicious chocolate and beetroot tart, with a thin slice of pear jelly.
After a huge and rather overwhelming day I was very happy to finally get into bed. My pillow was luxuriously comfortable, and my bed was deliciously warm, and I fell asleep immediately, ready for the next big day.
