Dave&Ann Posted April 21, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 21, 2004 We're cruising in October and I love tuna fish sandwiches......solid white albacore with regular mayonaisse and a little chopped celery (not too much, though) on lightly toasted white bread. I can't seem to find a menu online of what's available onboard so I thought I'd see if anyone knows offhand if I'll be able to get some on Millennium. Anybody ever brought little cans aboard? Would they prepare it for me if I did? Ooooh...there's a new gold can Bumblebee (they call it "premium albacore"). I figure if it is available, it might not be made exactly how I like it. What if they use Miracle Whip? No. Only Helmann's. I know this is a somewhat unorthodox post, but I just ate a bowl of tuna fish at my desk and I thought of it and didn't want to forget to ask later when I get home from the office. I like chicken salad, too..........

hdawson Posted April 21, 2004 #2 Share Posted April 21, 2004 I've often had very good tuna fish salad sandwiches on a kaiser from room service. Followed by Black Forrest Cake of course with cold milk. Other breads also available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MISSYLOU Posted April 21, 2004 #6 Share Posted April 21, 2004 I really enjoy the tuna salad sandwich from room service. It is served on brown bread. Very good for a light lunch.

hdawson Posted April 21, 2004 #8 Share Posted April 21, 2004 Lois. A more intimate ship. Galley is preparing for only 650 people at a time. More personalized service. A better opportunity to get to know your fellow guests and crew. Much more like a real cruise than on ships of 90-130,000 tons. Certainly not like a shopping mall at sea.

Shirley and Les Posted April 22, 2004 #13 Share Posted April 22, 2004 I really didn't want to respond to this thread. Think back now, it title is "Tuna Fish?????" On a cruise, things like creme brulee, shrimp cocktail, broiled lobster, caesar salad, filet mignon, cheese cake, broiled salmon, beef wellington all come to mind. But tuna fish????? Excuse me, I really would like a grilled cheese sandwich and Campbell's tomato soup for dinner. OK, it's off my chest. Enjoy whatever you choose to eat on your cruise.

Dave&Ann Posted April 22, 2004 Author #19 Share Posted April 22, 2004 I know that most of the time I want to have some great food when I'm traveling (I have to confess, I haven't done much cruising - only one prior cruise, honeymoon - other than too much time undersea on an attack submarine), but sometimes even in places like Las Vegas where there's all kinds of food choices, I still eventually get sick of all the fancy stuff and something plain like a tuna sandwich or bowl of oatmeal sounds good. I don't anticipate having it very much, but we're going on a 12-day cruise and that seems like an awful lot of cream soups, seafood, beef, etc., so I figured I would crave something ordinary by the end of the cruise. Thanks to all for your thoughts. I promise I won't bring any Campbell's soup with me.....although Snow's Corn Chowder is quite good for a canned soup........sorry, I digress...

Rare Lois R Posted April 22, 2004 #20 Share Posted April 22, 2004 Dave, hi...just ask..and you usually shall receive [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] They try to do whatever they can to make your cruise more comfortable. I think a Tuna Sandwich is definitely an acceptable request [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif[/img] Not sure about the Albacore part...but then again, you never know until you ask!

joramrose Posted April 23, 2004 #25 Share Posted April 23, 2004 I'm with DaveandAnn. I can take just so much of "fancy food" and have to fall back on tuna fish sandwich4s, peanut butter and crackers or canned tomatoes. I remember once once on the QE2 I took one look at the plate of stuff the waiter brought out, told him to take it away and briong me some dry toast and a pot of tea. I nibbled and sipped happily while conversing with my tablemates. And occasionally I order room service of tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich to "restore my palate." How's that for a fancy term? I DO enjoy shipboard cuisine. Just have to take a break occasionally. love joan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
