Captain on the Quest's Christmas cruise!

[JaneBP]

My health issues are such that all the cruises look wonderful, but I am not sure when and if I will be up to one. I was thinking the Sojourn TA in '13 or the east coast cruise from Montreal to FLL. Mind you, I have my week's credit for 250 days, so they are all tempting!

But as you have read, you can have your own curry luncheon!! BTW, haven't heard about Chef Raj lately, anyone know where he is?

Meet with the Maitre 'd and Chef, give them free rein and be sure there is at least one vegetarian option. The Pursers will print an invitation. Easy Peasy.

Jane that sounds so nice. Thank you for the tip! Since we will be 18 days on the ship, we might want to do that! We'll miss you with the Trivia. You won the Trivia 2010/2011 Holiday cruise on the Legend, leaving all of us in the dust! And I've fond memories of your lovely curry luncheon.

Thank you for the kind words. I just wanted to win an umbrella, so that's what I managed to do!
Do consider having a curry lunch! I just started asking people I met if they liked curry and if they looked askance and demurred, I just explained that the luncheon wasn't for them! Occasionally there is a partner of a curry fan who does't care for it and they can order off the lunch menu. But often it's because they never really tried the dishes and they can be won over.

Nowadays I just add peas and some curry powder to the Stouffer's Chicken a la King and dream of the Taj Maha!

Tell him if he's not up to the mark then I will be waiting in the wings

As he's a married man, I shall let you have first pop instead

I believe we'll have a strong sense of déja vu on this cruise, as Susan Wood was CD on our Christmas/NY cruise last year on Silversea! We found her to be very personable indeed and professional at all times. She's an elegant lady who always looks the part.

Looking forward to meeting everyone in December, only 137 days to go now

We also know Susan from Silversea and your analysis of her is ours as well.
