【食記】EVA Inflight Meals 長榮機餐－il Giardino Romantico

London. Here I come I again. But in fact, I had never left. What exciting adventures await!

倫敦。我又來了！換個角度想，我未曾離開過。接下來的旅程，還會有什麼刺激等著我發掘呢？

I literally won this flight back to the UK. I intended to make the most of this journey, and I sure did.

＂贏來的＂機票，讓我不放棄這次旅程的每一刻、每一秒。

Even though I had won the flight, I think as a passenger, I still reserve the right to make a few complaints. First of all, the personal interactive entertainment system was malfunctioning during the flight from Taipei to Bangkok. Before boarding the same plane again, I made sure that the system was working again, as the journey from Bangkok to London was much longer, and to salvage myself from being jet-lagged, I had to make sure I was awake during the second half of this flight. Thankfully, the crew was kind enough to make sure the system was working. My main problem, though, was the fact that because I had ordered vegetarian meals, they had forgotten my complimentary bread, twice. But since I was really eager to arrive, I didn't make too much of a fuss about it.

雖然是贏來的機票，但同樣是乘客，我還是保有抱怨的權利吧？從台北飛往曼谷的三個小時，我的個人娛樂系統無法使用。所以在曼谷重新登機時，我向工作人員確認已經修復好才上飛機。畢竟從曼谷到倫敦的飛行時間比較長，為了避免到了當地有時差，我必須確保後半段的飛行時間是清醒的。少了娛樂系統想要保持清醒會很困難。不過我真正想抱怨的是，因為我點的是素食餐，他們居然連續兩次忘了先把麵包給我。不過因為我很期待這次的旅程，也就沒把事情鬧大。

Near Green Park Station. 近Green Park地鐵站。

Then, I started a three-week journey throughout England. Starting from London, then up north to Durham. Moving my way down towards Liverpool, then to the southeast - Canterbury, finally making it to Cambridge and Oxford, then back to London again, awaiting the journey back home.

接下來就是連續三週的英格蘭趴趴造。從倫敦開始，接著往北部的Durham。再接著慢慢的往Liverpool的方向跑，再來是東南方的Canterbury。最後終於見到了Cambridge及Oxford，才很不甘願的回到倫敦。等著歸國。

Heathrow to Bangkok. EVA inflight dinner. 長榮晚餐。倫敦－曼谷。

Heathrow to Bangkok. EVA inflight breakfast. 長榮早餐。倫敦－曼谷。

When I arrived in Bangkok again, I had to deal with some unfinished business. You see, last time I came across this restaurant, and wondered if I should have one extra meal in between my flights. But as I had spent too much time 'wondering', I ended up not having enough time by the time I had decided to go for it. So this time, I headed straight to the restaurant, and ordered myself a place of authentic Thai food - something I had not had for ages!

到了曼谷之後，我有個任務要達成。因為上次經過的時候，我看到一間餐廳。猶豫了好久要不要進去點一盤來吃吃。不過猶豫太久，等我決定要進去點餐時，時間已經不夠了。只好作罷。所以這次，下了飛機我馬上直奔這間餐廳。點了一盤懷念許久的正宗泰國餐。

Local beer. 當然少不了當地啤酒。

Mama pad kimao. ＂媽媽＂辣味炒麵。

Sauces to go with the dish. Have it the Thai way - add a bit (or a lot) of each.
無論點什麼都用的上的醬料。若要真的道地，一定要每種都加一點（或很多）。

Top left to right: sugar, dried chillies, vinegar with chillies, fish sauce.
上左至右：糖、辣椒、辣椒醋、魚露。

Fancy taking a guess at what I usually have with my meals?
要不要猜猜看我通常習慣加什麼嗎？

Bangkok to Taipei. EVA inflight dinner. 長榮晚餐。曼谷－台北。

There was yet another thing to complain about during this flight. First, they forget my bread, twice. Then, they for got my drink! I got really annoyed this time, because they had already asked what drink I wanted to go with my meal when they double checked my special meal request. If you weren't going to give me my drink when the meal is served (special meals are served first), then why bother asking? Now I'm seriously considering writing an email to complain about this.

這次飛行途中又有讓我不開心的事了！原先是忘了給我麵包。這次是忘了給我飲料。飛行前空服人員都會先跟點特別餐的旅客確認。再這個時候他們就先問過我要喝什麼飲料。特別餐也會先上（通常我吃完了我鄰居的餐點才會剛送上）。如果沒有要跟餐點一起送，那何必事先問我要喝什麼呢？這次真的讓我有點火氣上升的想要寫信去客訴。

Nevertheless, I took back with me loads of photos and memories. I might just forget about this whole thing.

不過無論如何，這次的英國行照樣是滿載而歸。或許我會放他們一馬吧！？

What do you reckon, Paddington?

你覺得呢？伯靈頓熊熊？

我是正宗的唷！
