A waiter's name

[rundent]

My wife and I are trying to remember the name of our waiter on our last cruise, here are the particulars: Ship was the Emerald, cruise was Jan. 6th 2013, Pretty sure he worked in the DaVinci dinning room on the port side, he is a Romanian who speaks perfect English, the best waiter we ever had, his wife works on the ship too, now here is the hint that should help you the most = he looks like Mr. Bean [by his own admission]. He's worked many years for Princess so many of you elites had to have come across him. Some may have been put off by him since he is a bit of a wiseacre. Okay, who is he?

I know exactly who you are thinking of, but his name isn't coming to me right now. If I do recall it, I'll come back to this thread to post. He was great!

I think it was Nick. (See, as soon as I stop forcing myself to remember, it pops into my head).

Nick, I think you nailed it! As soon as my wife returns I'll ask her if it rings a bell.

Now another question: How could I get in touch with him? I'm planning on doing a Uniworld river cruise starting in Bucharest and think that he could help me.

Bucharest is a very interesting city. We spent a few days there many years ago. Be sure to visit the Opera House. I know this is not what you want, but my fingers needed to be on the keyboard. ;)

Your best bet is to find someone on an upcoming Emerald roll call who is willing to check it out for you. Nick may not be on board any longer...he was there possibly earlier than January, and, coming from Romania, they have 6 month contracts. Even if he's no longer there, you might be able to get a last name and find him on Facebook.

Here's a link to a review of the Emerald Princess that talks about Nick and his assistant Richie.

I'll take a peek at the emerald roll calls to see if someone can get a last name, even the Maitre'd could help.
