INDEPENDENCE OF THE SEAS - KING LEAR DINING ROOM

KING LEAR DINING ROOM
INDEPENDENCE OF THE SEAS

When we saw Beef Wellington on the Chef's Dinner Menu we just had to make it to the King Lear Dining Room this evening.  The chef chose to "deconstruct" the Beef Wellington which ruined the dish completely.

Dining in the King Lear room because they had a Surf and Turf combo featuring a broiled lobster tail and grilled filet of beef.  While the lobster tails were small, the staff was happy to bring you as many as you could eat.  The Crust Tartlet with Sauteed Duck Livers was not great.
