Nice review. Its especially nice to hear the Zui had no major issues, especially with the toilets! Glad you enjoyed your cruise.:)

Great photos Melodie. Glad to see Escargo on menu. Hope they are served on the Zaandam. Sorry, that red caviar doesn't do it for me. When Fred & I used to buy a whole salmon at the local docks, the odd time we'd end up with a female full of eggs like you have pictured. We'd chuck them out or give them to a Japanese neighbour if he was home. We both loved the Black Russian Sturgeon caviar that HAL used to serve but I haven't seen that in 4 or 5 years. A couple of years ago on the Oosterdam sushi bar they used flying fish caviar as a garnish (that's what one of the servers in the Lido said it was). It was about the size of the head of a pin & a beautiful emerald green. They'd pop in your mouth when you chewed - delightful.

Oh Gail I agree with you on the red caviar, not so good but the caviar we had on the last formal night would have been right up your alley, it was the black Russian Sturgeon caviar, oh sooooooo good. Sorry I didn't get a picture of it, but felt funny about taking my camera to a formal night dinner.

where i come from, this is sold in fish bait shops - not passed off as caviar. :eek:

Your so right, I've used those fish eggs for bait when I was younger and went fishing.:D

Now you see why she is my favorite ship:)

 

Glad to see you enjoyed her as much as I do:)

 

Maybe you can join us for a week or 2 May 11th or May 18th, 2013 round trip Vancouver?

Thanks for the heads up Melodie. I'll be watchful for this delight. :D
