Hope you have had a good flight. Looking forward to hearing how you get on at universal as we are back there in April. If you are looking for an extra dinner choice Vivos on Citywalk was really good in the summer.

See more...

The restaurant was in the Sofitel.

So we landed at 4:35pm. It is 6:45pm now, we have checked in and are currently in Citywalk and have just finished our meal at Panda Express. I will write it all up before an earlyish night.

There are what looks like thousands of people streaming out of the conference centre!

Following along, the meal at Vanda looked good, hope you enjoy your trip 😀

Upon boarding Nev opted for his customary champagne, he hasn't touched this yet but the choice of glass made it look a little miserly! I just had water which didn't need photographing.

Not long after take off, they took the drink orders. They had earlier announced to the plane that there was somebody on board with a sever nut allergy and could all passengers refrain from eating any nuts that might have brought on board. Accordingly our drinks came without the usual nibbles. I had spicy tomato juice and Nev had a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon.

This was the menu. For starter I opted for the white onion soup and Nev had the citrus poached prawns. I thought my soup was quite nice but a bit too salty and it could have done with being a touch hotter. Nev said the prawns were nice but "there were only three of them".

We had pre ordered our mains, Nev had roasted chicken masala and I had the seared British steak with dauphinois potatoes. My meal was absolutely divine, has to be one of the best airline meals I have had and a distinct improvement on anything I have had on BA before. Nev was less enthused about his meal, saying it was ok but a bit dry, I note he did eat it all though.

For desserts, I had the cheese plate and Nev had the banana cake with crime anglaise. He said the cake was nice but he didn't like that the crime anglais was served cold and on a plate rather than a bowl.

Finally, about an hour and a half before landing afternoon tea was served, I had the sandwiched and scorn and Nev had tapas. Both fine.

Overall Nev rated the experience a 6, but I loved my main so much that I am more inclined to rate is an 8.
