Euro Cuisine

Euro Cuisine
 
Photos of some of our amazing meals while on the European River Cruise.  What was really cool was that nearly every evening (and most lunches as well) the chef - Zolton - would prepare a menu that reflected the area we were in.  It's hard to see in the photos, but the portions were largely so very small.  Yet at the end of the meal we were all very satisfied!
