[shofer]

Anyone recently off Silhouette know if they served a whole lobster tail or the "Lobster Melange"?

In which restaurant?

We cruised the Silhouette the end of January 2014 and they did indeed serve whole lobster tails in the Main Dining Room on one of the formal nights. Very nice with drawn butter also.

I did mean the MDR. Thanks disnemimi for the info. Leaving tomorrow and very excited.

On Summit about a week ago, someone at our table ordered four lobster tails.

Must have been hungry. Glad the wait staff took care of the request.

On the Feb 9 sailing of Silhouette they served the full tails. My petite SO had 3 of them. She loves lobster. The staff didn't even question it, brought her 2 together then a 3rd after she had finished the first 2. It was well prepared and actually very tasty.

 

Good Sailing

It's just a good thing that everyone doesn't indulge to that degree. I can maybe see an occasional extra tail, but if everybody asks for three or four, it could soon reach a point where either late diners are told, "Sorry, all gone", the cost gets passed on to everybody in the form of (slightly) higher cruise prices, or they just drop the lobster altogether.

 

My DW also loves her lobster, but understands this is a rather pricey item and restricts herself to one tail, figuring that much was rightly included in the overall cost of the cruise.

 

A company I worked for experimented with offering free coffee from the coffee machine. It was on the honor system-- the company would spring for the coffee as long as it wasn't abused. Well, coffee consumption tripled. We were soon back to paying for our own coffee.

Good for her. Kudos to the wait staff for accomodating her.
