The first time I ate at Delta Hotel Restaurant in Vlaardingen was on Thanksgiving of last year. I thought it would be a good idea to introduce some of my friends to Thanksgiving meal. While I was not able to go home and celebrate the festivity with my family, I can still make the best of it. I do miss the annual Thanksgiving meal with the big turkey, the football games, and setting up the Christmas tree a day or two after.

I didn’t take any photo the first time I was at Delta Hotel Restaurant. However, the second and third time I went there, I made sure to take plenty of pictures. I don’t know where I will be dining this Thanksgiving. I have so much to be thankful for and will not forget this special holiday, no matter how commercialized it has become.

I like to try new things so I went with the “Nautique” menu.

Starting out with bread.

Salad with bake fish.

Fish soup.

Steak with terriyaki sauce.

Icecream with peach pie to finish the meal.

Here is what Delta Hotel looks like from a distance.

A view of the restaurant. You can catch water taxi to Rotterdam just a few steps outside the restaurant.

The night before I left for the USA my date took me out for a farewell dinner. It was a nice dinner and we talked about what I would be doing back home. Hopefully when I get back he will take me out for a welcome back dinner.

Bread to start off.

Thai fish nuggets with sweet and sour pickles.

Mushroom soup

Main dish

Icecream with a slice of pie

I can really eat when I want to.
