Today was a leisurely start. We passed the Nibelungen Bridge near Worms around 8 am.
We arrived in Mannheim at 10 am to drop off passengers on the Heidelberg Tour.
Program Director Jackie gave a talk on Viking cruising opportunities at 11 am then we arrived in Speyer at 2 pm.
Lunch:
The Orange & Carrot Soup was not sweet and tasted pretty good.
Italian Salad with arugula, cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, bresaola, rosemary focaccia and balsamic vinaigrette.
Spaghetti Carbonara had pancetta instead of guanciale but it was still pretty tasty.
Chicken Tikka Masala was just okay.
Flan Parisian was too eggy.
Port talk was at 6:45 pm followed by dinner.
French Onion Soup didn't have depth of flavor.
Baby Arugula Salad with Bacon, Red Onion Marmalade, Toasted Pine Nuts, White Balsamic Vinaigrette.
Seared Halibut Filet Au Beurre Blanc was the better dinner option. This was moist but such a tiny portion.
Roast Duck Breast, Shitake Mushrooms, Butternut Squash, BBQ Sauce. The duck was well prepared pink but the sauce was weird.
We asked for steamed vegetables.
Apple Tarte Tatin
Mango Lassie Cake
