airplane food


someone once asked me, so do you photograph everything.  This wasn't the first time I have been asked that question... Well...the things I photograph help me to remember what I eat during the trip of course.

This was from our KLM flight from Basel to Amsterdam, one hour and twenty minute flight.  Cheese sandwich, a sandwiched made with cheese, mustard and mayonnaise.  This was our second breakfast, first breakfast started 3am.

 American Pancake

Each day there is a breakfast special and this was March 13th special at Cochem's port.  

As you can see the pancakes are very thin, more like a silver dollar in size.  Half of the time you can find this in the buffet alternating with waffles, which are also thin and light.  The buffet serves them with either vanilla sauce or fruit sauce.  You can also find syrup, which is very thin, on the buffet counter.  There was another sauce I tried too, it might have been molasses.  It was very dark and heavy but not as thick as molasses.  I asked and was total it was a form of sugar.  To me American pancakes were closer to a crepe, which I love.  One of the morning they had pancakes in the buffet but with vanilla sauce and the special with Hawaiian Toast.  Not a fan of Hawaiian toast or vanilla suce, so I asked if I could get fruit sauce instead.  I was so delighted to get a bowl of fruit sauce.  That was my favorite breakfast.

GCCL - Dinner 10th.

Food images from our trip with Grand Circle Cruise on M/S River Melody Romance of the Rhine & Mosel Trip March 2014.  

One of the things we wondered about our trip was What about the food.  What were we going to eat.  Was it good.  Would it be our style of food.  I have to say the food was amazing.  Presentation of each plating was thought out.  Some items were carefully sculpted into shapes and placed on the plates.   Images were taken with a Nikon P7000 camera, never thought the food would look so good to have brought my good cameras along.

Bakery in the little town of Willemstad

De Echte Bakker

There were many different baked goods to pick from for a very small town.  Baked Bread displayed in the window for all to see.
We Picked Pecan-noten, which was very tasty, light and fluffy.  The Gevulde koek was heavy and dry.  We didn't eat half of it.  It was more like a cookie.  Should have picked the Amandelbroodjes.

Hazel's Northeast - Beet Salad


www.jennylunde.com




Roast Beet Mixed Green Salad - now this is how a beet salad should be.  The right ratio of beets to salad, so many salads either have so much beets with little bits of salad or way to much salad with two or more pieces of beets.  Even the ratio of chevre, goat cheese, and pecan nuts is prefect too.  The champagne vinaigrette dressing was light and not heavy at all.
