msk68 Posted July 13, 2006 #26 Share Posted July 13, 2006 One of the delights of having Caviar on the menu is not ordering it:) Here here! Totally agree! Tried it many times and still don't like it, finally gave up - there is always someone around (namely DH) who will inhale any portion that I give up LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't buy the supermarket variety! Tastes like something that got caught in the nets in Stonington and laid on the pier in the hot sun for three days! I shall have to bring some good stuff down to you! Karie, Who met a gent who used to live in Old Lyme and East Lyme at the Ormond Beach Elks club when I was down for my father's funeral!

pnhmrk Posted July 14, 2006 #28 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Don't buy the supermarket variety! They sell Caviar in your supermarkets? - Caviar, the roe of the sturgeon, not the roe of the monkfish or similar. I'm assuming that Cunard are using "real" Caviar - it's not another economy to bring their fares down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godfreyb Posted July 14, 2006 #29 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Yes they do sell caviar in supermarkets here and occasionally I buy it for a treat. Cunard have served sevruga caviar when we have been on in the past. The beauty of travelling with Cunard, at least in Grill Class is that they will try and offer anything you want if they can. While I won't eat blood pudding, Scottish 'slice' or tripe I am sure that if you asked for it they would try. (You can see that I am originally from the UK). My wife and I regularly order a complete Indian meal for dinner and it is remarkably good - it should be as the waiters tell me that 80% of the cooks are Indian! When we travel next month I will be asking for caviar on my birthday and sherry trifle for dessert - the last time I was on a man asked for it on Xmas day - I saw it and when he left the dining room I asked the waiter to fetch over the rest of the big bowl - it was delicious.

pnhmrk Posted July 14, 2006 #30 Share Posted July 14, 2006 I am sure that if you asked for it they would try. They do. They get me black pudding regularly in the PG. Because it's such common fare in the UK I wonder if they provide it if requested in Caronia as well:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
