Thanks to everyone who posted the lovely pictures! I also like the dress that Crown Princess Victoria wore yesterday evening, that red shiny colour is just fantastic and it really suits her!
Princess Lilian looked sweet and dashing as always, and Prince Carl Philip was every bit the handsome man he is
The press release from the Royal Court about this dinner tells us that the
menu consisted of fried sea crayfish tails with celery purée, steam cooked halibut in mango leafs and brandade of cod, whole roasted fillet of calf reindeer, duck liver soufflé and caramelised black roots. For dessert a Litchi sorbet with exotic fruits and sesame crackers was served.
