We know some of you are curious about what they eat over here, but kept forgetting to take the camera to dinner! But here are a couple of the dishes from the 4-course dinner our last night on Finnmarken:
We didn’t photograph the potato and wild garlic soup—it looked like every other cream-and-green-leaves soup. But there is the Poached Salmon from Skjervøy (with pureed carrots), and the Vodka-marinated Top Sirloin (with Savoy cabbage and gold potatoes). The dessert was pannacotta with forest berries. Sorry, no pic—it got eaten pretty quickly. But here are the menu and wine list…we ordered the package…one each of all 3 suggested wines. The port was really good!
A more “normal” lunch in Tromsø:
Sausages and hamburger from the ship’s café…it’s not really clear here, but these were served in bowls!
Breakfast on board (self-selected from buffet):
And our last night on Vesterålen…Salmon Carpaccio with prawns, Duck Breast with Black Currant sauce, potatoes, and baked leeks, and Créme Caramel:
The breakfast spread at the Radisson Blu in Trondheim is simply crazy! It was awfully hard not to eat three breakfasts every day….
Something more normal for lunch—meat soup (lamb and beef):
We’ve actually eaten a lot more “normal” food than the photos show—Steak and Béarnaise pizza, fish soup, shrimp sandwiches, ham and cheese sandwiches, pancakes, scrambled eggs, muesli with yogurt—but again, it’s often hard to remember to pull out the camera.
Speaking of all the above…it’s time for dinner. We’re going to send this while we have a REAL connection here at the Oslo airport!
