Hello, fellow food enthusiasts! 🌟 It’s Bubbly from BubblyLiving, and today I’m thrilled to share my exquisite dining experience at the Crown Grill, a specialty restaurant aboard the Ruby Princess. If you’re a fan of gourmet dining and impeccable service, this is one place you won’t want to miss. Ready to savor the details? Let’s dive in!
An Evening to Remember
From the moment I stepped into the Crown Grill, I was enveloped in an atmosphere of elegance and warmth. The decor is sophisticated, with rich wood paneling, plush seating, and ambient lighting that sets the perfect mood for a luxurious dining experience. The staff greeted me with friendly smiles and attentive service, making me feel like royalty.
Appetizers to Start
To kick off the evening, I sampled the Black Tiger Prawn and Papaya Salpicon. This dish was a delightful blend of succulent black tiger prawns and fresh papaya, all enhanced by a tangy mustard seed aioli. The combination of flavors was both refreshing and tantalizing, a perfect start to the meal.
Next up were the Seared Jumbo Sea Scallops with Salmon Caviar and Herb Beurre Blanc. The scallops were perfectly seared, tender, and paired beautifully with the rich, buttery herb beurre blanc. The addition of salmon caviar added a burst of briny goodness that elevated the dish to another level.
The Hot Garlic Cheese Bread Loaf is a delicious starter that quickly became a favorite. This warm, freshly baked loaf is generously slathered with garlic butter and topped with a blend of melted cheeses. The combination of the crispy crust and gooey, cheesy interior makes it the perfect indulgent treat to kick off your meal.
Main Course Magic
Choosing the main course was a delightful challenge, with so many mouth-watering options. I decided on the Chilean Sea Bass and Brioche Breaded King Prawns. The sea bass was cooked to perfection, flaky and moist, and the king prawns were beautifully breaded and succulent. Served with a leek and mushroom ragout and champagne mousseline, each bite was a harmonious blend of textures and flavors.
Lobster Tail Delight
One of the standout dishes of the evening was the Lobster Tail. Diners have the option to enjoy it broiled with pepper butter or split and grilled with garlic. I chose the grilled option, and it was absolutely divine. The lobster was tender and juicy, with a delightful garlic-infused flavor that made it simply irresistible. The grilling added a subtle smokiness that complemented the sweetness of the lobster perfectly.
Steak Lover’s Paradise
For those who crave a hearty steak, the Tomahawk Steak is a must-try. This massive cut was cooked to perfection, juicy and flavorful, and served with garlic and herb French fries, grilled asparagus, creamed spinach, and sautéed wild mushrooms. Each side dish complemented the steak wonderfully, making it a satisfying and decadent choice.
Final Thoughts
My dinner at the Crown Grill was an unforgettable culinary journey. The combination of exquisite flavors, top-notch ingredients, and impeccable service made for an exceptional dining experience. Whether you’re a seafood lover, a steak enthusiast, or someone who enjoys gourmet dining, the Crown Grill on the Ruby Princess is sure to delight your taste buds and leave you with lasting memories.
