  7. A bit late to the discussion, have been camping! I have wanted to see a thread where all the Chef's Table menus in one place, so this is great fun. From my reading of blogs etc. here are a couple of menus that I have seen mentioned, but do not have a picture of the menu. Anthony's French Bistro - the main dish is Sole with lobster sauce (has anyone ever had this menu?) Quebec - lobster terrine, arctic char, main dish is deer loin, and maple syrup cake. From Rose Brooks blog on the Star world cruise she posted pictures from the Chef's table, not sure if they are included in regular cruises or special to the world cruise. - a Mexican menu with fish tacos as main (1/21/2022) - A Taste of Thailand - main was Massaman Curry Braised Short Ribs (3/15/2022) - Indian menu - main Lamb Korma (4/2/2022) - Sri Lankan - main Peppered beef (4/5/2022) - Indonesian - main Beef Rendang (4/14/2022) I don't think anyone has posted about the Australia 1 menu Not sure if these are included in the 21 that are mentioned in the video, bur I think we are getting close:)
  8. I have hesitated about posting because I am so weary of talking about our situation. We were supposed to be on the May 19 Homelands sailing (third try). We were going to be traveling on our own in Norway prior to boarding the cruise so we were not required to test before leaving the USA. We are vaccinated and double boosted. The day of our flight SEA to Oslo we did a home test, I thought it was my allergies and my husband had mild cold symptoms, we both tested positive. So we needed to cancel the entire trip, we were shell shocked. We live in Salt Lake but flew to Seattle a week before our flight to Oslo. We mask all the time, especially since we were getting ready for a trip. We had also limited our interaction with folks prior to leaving Salt Lake and while we were in Seattle (we have a small condo so we are able to isolate). I am sure we caught Covid it the airport or plane even though we were masked (N95) since there are very few people wearing masks and I am sure there are people with Covid that think they just have a cold. We traveled last Sep-Oct, a Viking river cruise and on our own in Ireland, masking was still in effect so we had no problems. I am beyond angry that the mask mandate for public transportation was dropped, the airports are so crowded. In the process of rebooking for July 2023. I don't think there was anymore that we could have done, these current strains are just so contagious.
