djhsolara Posted October 8, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Does anyone have a copy of the current Sel de Mer menu being offered on Koningsdam now (not the pop-up from other various ships)?

dfish Posted October 9, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I really enjoyed Sel de Mer on the Koningsdam last June. Kind of wish I had gone a second time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djhsolara Posted October 9, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted October 9, 2017 The reason that I asked for the current Koningsdam menu is that we went to Sel De Mer on Koningsdam in January so we were excited to see it being offered as the pop-up on NA. However, we did discover that the menu is a bit altered. Not all of the dishes are offered. I know they can’t do everything, but I find it difficult when it is their own restaurant concept that they are recreating on other ships but do not offer the same menu. We had a few things that we liked on K-dam that we were looking forward to on NA, but they weren’t there. Took a little away from the experience for me.

boze9999 Posted October 9, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I understand your wish for the full menu. I wish every HAL ship had Sel de Mer and the Tamarind. Unfortunately it's a function of the facilities. On the new ships, Set de Mer has its own kitchen and can easily prepare the full menu of seafood oriented items. Without a dedicated Sel de Mer kitchen, the older ships simply cannot provide the full array of Sel de Mer offerings. The same holds true for the Tamarind. Without a full dedicated kitchen, none of the ships other than the NA & the Eurodam can offer the full Tamarind menu. We just got off the NA and even without the full menu, thoroughly enjoyed our pop-up evening of Sel de Mer. Soon, HAL will have two ships with all three fine dining options!

When you say you just got off NA, do you mean last Thursday in San Diego? If so, we were likely at the same dinner. I get what you’re saying, but the two things missing for me were a soup and a chicken dish. Other than the fresh fish, mostly all of the rest of the menu was there. That all being said, we had a great dinner (actually the first time I could not finish a dinner in a specialty restaurant). And how about those plates?? Pretty spiffy and fun.
