科隆一日游 Day Trip @ Köln

一大早从杜塞尔多夫坐火车到科隆去走走看看吃吃和喝喝,哈哈,可惜天公不作美。阴阴的天,照片出来的效果也没那么好(当然还有一部分的原因是我的技术不到家)。我们从科隆火车站出来后便先前往附近的科隆大教堂去看看和拍拍照。

We went to Köln for a day trip from Düsseldorf. It was a sightseeing, eating, drinking and relaxing trip, but unfortunately, the weather was not good. We went to Cologne Cathedral, which is situated near the train station for photos and also strolling inside the church.

这次可以不用叫路人帮我们拍照了。We can ask our friends to help us to take a photo of us this time.

从教堂出来过后我们便去 “找吃” 了,因为大家早餐都吃的很少,所以11点多而已就都喊肚子饿了。我们的朋友带我们去了一家中餐馆 – 汤王去吃午餐。个人觉得他们的海鲜水蛋(文蛤虾仁鸡蛋)蛮不错,其他食物的味道还可以。孜然羊肉的话我个人还是比较喜欢卡鲁的。这次的账单总共是88欧元,个人觉得价钱有点偏高,因为份量不是很大。

After the church, we went to a Chinese restaurant – Tang Wang – to have our lunch. The restaurant was recommended by our friend; he told us that he always go there whenever he’s  in Cologne. I will recommend their Seafood Steam Egg personally, simply delicious. The other food is just average, and I still prefer the Cumin Lamb in Karlsruhe (YangDa). The price for this lunch was 88 euro (for 4 persons) in total which I personally think that it was a bit too expensive because their servings are not very big.

上海汤包 – 我还是比较喜欢小笼包。
上海生煎包 – 这个的皮有点厚。The Pao’s skin a bit thick.
卤蛋红烧肉 – 瘦肉有点干硬,半肥瘦的还好。
孜然羊肉 – 口感粗粗的羊肉。(和菜单里的图片有差别)
文蛤虾仁鸡蛋 – 怎么和图片不一样呢?!

吃饱喝足我们便前往霍亨索伦桥去走走了。霍亨索伦桥就在教堂附近,而且据说也可以在桥上扣上锁头。我们的朋友还一直问我和我老公:怎么你们没买一把锁来这儿啊?!我们没有把整跳桥走完便前往我这次最主要要去的地方 ~ Lindt 巧克力博物馆。

We went to Hohenzollern Bridge after the lunch. Hohenzollern Bridge is just located near the church too. My friends kept asking my husband and me why we did not bring a lock and lock it on the bridge since there are many people did this on the bridge, oh well. We didn’t walk through the whole bridge because I wanted to make time for the Lindt Chocolate Museum. Also, the main reason why I wanted to visit Cologne too.

‘情人桥’?! ‘Lovers Bridge’?!

我没能把巧克力博物馆的外观拍下留作记录,因为天公不作美,当我们差不多走到博物馆时竟下起雨来了(回程时也还在下雨)。我们买了票后便进到里面参观了。说真的,11.50欧元的一张成人票好像有点贵,因为我们在里面只能有2次机会品尝免费的试用巧克力。唯一的特点是你能在里面订作和购买自己喜欢的巧克力,大约5欧元一片。

I didn’t have the chance to take a photo of the outlook of the museum, because it was raining while we almost reach the museum. It was also raining we were leaving the museum. After we bought our ticket, we went inside and visited the museum. I was looking forward to trying their chocolate, but unfortunately, there are only two chances for us to do so. And this is why I feel like an adult ticket which costs 11.50 euro is overpriced. The most interesting thing that you can do inside the museum is to order and buy a bar of chocolate with the ingredients you like (custom chocolate). It costs around 5 euro per bar.

这是用来运送可可豆的吗?Is this how they use to send the Cocoa?
One of the product of cocoa in Malaysia: Milo.

我们前往巧克力博物馆时便看到这棵“金”树了。We saw this “Golden” Tree while we were walking to the museum.

认真制作客人订制的巧克力。The staff will make the chocolate of the customer ordered seriously.

离开这里前我们还去了这里的咖啡馆休息和喝咖啡吃蛋糕。We went to the Lindt Museum’s cafe to take a rest and had a taste of their chocolate cake and coffee before we left Cologne.
