Marelin was the best - she had my cappuccino and double espresso waiting for me every morning as I arrived to work on my research paper (got a 4.0 in the course by the way!) and write up my review.  She also had a keen eye for when I was ready to switch over to a mimosa 🙂

You might want to ask him if he has a late harvest wine. It’s a red that would surprise you.

Ekta also makes a great key lime pie martini 🍸 😋

 

Oh, I did not know that.  I wonder if she’ll be surprised when I ask for one.

As I said, he talked me into it because I had @Best cat Dad favorite starter — escargot

We talked old world and new world tonight .. I’ll try and remember late harvest. 

 

Rodin is doing a wine tasting on the last sea day at 1100.  I told him to sign me up.  He came by the table later and said that the red he served me tonight was on the list for the tasting - I said that’s okay, he can substitute something else just for me as a joke.  I hope he did not take me serious.  He mentioned that it was too late to change.  

He said the reason he was doing one was a lot of people had complained about the cost of the one the Wine Cellar holds so his is priced at $30 …

We are in the TSL and my DW is even with me tonight!  Usually she gets to the room after dinner and calls it a night.  Tonight we went shopping after dinner and she decided to join me in the lounge. 
 

Tonight was gala night.

 

My DW started with French Onion Soup followed by the Wellness Salad

 

 

 

and I had the Escargo followed by the lobster bisque

 

 

 

Our sommelier, Rodin talked me into deviating from my usual Champagne / Red wine regimen and brought me a very nice Chardonnay 

 

 

it went very well with the snails and the bisque.

 

For our main courses my DW had the beef tenderloin and I had the surf and turf.

 

I had talked wiih Suzette, our waiter at breakfast and asked for rice for my wife.

 

 

Rodin paired my surf and turf with a nice Bordeaux- it was delicious

 

 

For her dessert my wife decided she was having only the vanilla ice cream.  I splurged and went with the crepe Suzette 

 

 

Rodin stopped by as we were finishing our dessert and offered a dessert wine.  I noamally do not partake but have a difficult time saying no to him.

 

I am glad I listened to him.

 

Now to put my phone down relax and listen to Bernard. 

p.s. @Best cat Dad we are both having an Ultimate Pina Colada.  No offense but i am going back to Zacapa New Fashioned

If you like pistachio, try the pistachio ice cream for dessert one day! Our server on Euribia brought it every night once he knew how much we loved it.

[DaKahuna]

I normally try and get Pistachio Gellato but will ask for the ice cream if the fancy strikes me!
