What Are The Elements In Popcorn?

A look behind the scenes - 143 crew members take care about the food: o)

28/12/2010 Evening:



In the Atlantic restaurant for dinner we get this time without ever directly ordered our preferred beverages. The service is really excellent and always good humored. While we were still sitting at the dessert, the kids have already contacted a friend in the TUI Bar moved here, a quiz is played, must be made for the team. Me nothing, you did not support the three boys a nice older gentleman (also with name Peter) connected and now they have a team of four together. We get the idea, but unnecessary, "Mom, Dad and you do not belong to You must not help us." The group of 4 "Peter and the boys" were actually given the 2nd Place in the quiz and everyone has a TUI bottle.

This evening Six Pack A Cappela on the program. Today only five times occurring group, the audience quickly under control and provide a super show - the atmosphere is awesome - TUI is also in the bar then something going on properly.

day at sea 12/29/2010

Our 10.Hochzeitstag begins with a strong wind (wind force 10 angebl.? But so strong, it is now before us actually not) and orderly waves but clear blue sky. At 9 clock we have an appointment for a massage at the spa. Up here on the deck 11 in the bug, it rocks quite hard. But the view from the treatment rooms is absolutely fantastic. Wonderfully relaxing, we enjoy the atmosphere (nice, I can enjoy again this afternoon, I have booked namely "soft wave / la mer").
meet at 10.30 am we are with the General Manager Axel care and the Executive Head Chef Christian Wastl who take both a lot of time for the kids on Cruise interview.
We have learned, including what measures TUI Cruises for prophylaxis against gastrointestinal diseases carried out (with this topic, you will happily very aggressively to take on board, a step in the right direction, as can be without the help and appropriate hygiene measures of the guests of each year in that period are virtually unparalleled in distribution).

We want to know how it looks with waste disposal and environmental protection. This theme is concerned, an environmental officer and a special disposal team. All waste generated will be separated consistently and even the organic waste is again split to "burn out" (eg, bone, pineapple drink) and disposed of elsewhere. Some food waste can be disposed of crushed and even outside the 12 mile zone in the sea. We learn that this procedure but not in all waters is possible, for example in the Baltic Sea is not as good as possible by strong runs. So also have this organic waste are sometimes disposed of on land.



Also on the subject of shopping is the future Disposal relevant. Thus, strictly taken to ensure that products do not bring too much garbage with it, would pull its disposal additional costs and environmental costs are involved (such as would pledge barrels until about truck transport back to Germany to be brought. Not least because one has also for the beer be decided in the buffet restaurant Anckelmannsplatz for a German brewery, which offers a practical and easy to be disposed of box system.

planned purchases for 14 days in advance. Fresh fruit and certain products and purchases for the Richards in part in the respective destinations done. This is where you also local provider to offer fresh and local produce back to.

under sympathetic to the Austrian chef total of 143 employees the kitchen. Every single restaurant has its own kitchen, which is in close proximity to each restaurant. Thus, long distances and avoid the food is always freshly prepared. As a passenger
hard to imagine, but only with the formulation / preparation of the breakfast is a "layer" (approx. 10 hours) fully occupied. So when we sit comfortably in the theater prepares the "breakfast layer" already the next day.

We want to know if the Premium All-Inclusive concept extremely impact on consumption. Incidentally, it is not the case - the first few days try though many guests from the variety, but that is mitigated, in the course of the journey. Ourselves, it is also so - no way there is on board a "Ballermann atmosphere" but everything is just very relaxed - at additional costs must be no worry - just leave (we will bring it up to the end of the trip on but about 700 € additional costs, has at least nothing to do with it ...).
We have rarely drinks long wait. The cocktails are also mixed fresh. Only the particularly popular with the kids non-alcoholic cocktails like Strwaberry Kiss and Co. are pre-mixes in white bottles.

We feel good - for a fiddle to be exact. What else do we learn everything we tell you after leaving ...


After about 1.5 hour discussion we can have a look in the kitchen from the main restaurant and at the sight of the Atlantic take many pantry stations for each dish we realize what a tremendous need for logistics , Is so that each guest can put together his menu as he wants now.

Each dish is cooked fresh - on escalators, the waiters come from the kitchen to the upper floor of the Atlantic and the sight of the plate towers I get a vague idea of how turbulent it happens behind the scenes while we enjoy just another wonderful dish in the Atlantic restaurant in a relaxed atmosphere.
