	Another amazing recipe for the Captain's Table, this time from Uniworld’s Culinary Director, Master Chef Bernhard Zorn who provides Prow's Edge readers with a recipe for his Veal Mignon "River Queen” click here for Chef Bernhard Zorn's recipe for the Captain's Table...	G'Day, Mates! Prow's Edge starts off the year with two new cruise reviews from "Down Under". Roger Allnutt, a freelance travel writer based in Canberra, Australia, and a long-time member of the Australian Society of Travel Writer, details his experiences of cruises at THE GREAT BARRIER REEF, and ON THE RIVER MURRAY. He also gives us a taste of a cruise in FIJI, and yet another WALTZING DOWN THE DANUBE! Other cruise reviews cover many different cruise lines and come from all parts of the world – from Alaska’s Inside Passage to the Croation Coast, from the Caribbean across the Atlantic on a Windstar sailing ship or one of Cunard’s grand old ladies like the Queen Mary 2, among Scotland’s Hebridean islands, or the fjords of Norway, the Mediterranean, to the Far East and the South Seas, and the sun-drenched coast of Africa. Others take you on steamboats and riverboats along the world’s great rivers like the Mississippi, Columbia River, Danube, Irrawaddy, and the Yangtze. click here for cruise reviews Also take a look at our cruises section that desribes the different types of cruises available today! click here for more on types of cruises
