9CE Posted May 13, 2011 #1 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Any recent experience of the reaction on board to a caviar request? On Legend 2009 there were frequent deliveries on deck of an afternoon, but Odyssey 2010... nothing. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harbormaster Posted May 13, 2011 #4 Share Posted May 13, 2011 We were on the Sojourn in March. Had caviar in the bar every evening with drinks. No problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UppieB Posted May 14, 2011 #5 Share Posted May 14, 2011 How far in advance did you have to request it? Did you specify a kind of caviar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wripro Posted May 14, 2011 #6 Share Posted May 14, 2011 You request it when you want it. And there is only one kind that is complimentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babecushing Posted May 15, 2011 #7 Share Posted May 15, 2011 hi. order it as often as you want, where you want. it is paddlefish roe, not sturgeon, and you may want to read up a bit on it and it's sourcing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bollinge Posted May 20, 2011 #8 Share Posted May 20, 2011 it is paddlefish roe, not sturgeon, Wow, what a disappointment. I didn't expect Royal Beluga, but I thought it might be farmed American or French sturgeon roe. I've never tried paddlefish roe, but here's an interesting piece about it: http://www.kysmokedfish.com/article_nytimes.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnycruise Posted May 20, 2011 #9 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Last summer the maitre d' told me it was farm-raised California sturgeon caviar. When was the change made? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When was the change made? hi johnny cruise, are you also johnny jet by any chance? curious about that. if you or anybody else has questions about the caviar served, then go buy an ounce of farmed california sturgeon roe and an ounce of paddlefish. see what you think. i have much to say about this but it may not be appropriate for the forum or this thread. i can't imagine that a person chooses a cruises based on roe but let's at least be honest about what it is.

Earlier this year, I was told that the caviar was Sevruga . Its appearance and taste was consistent with this and not paddlefish . That is the roe was characteristically small and black. Not at all glossy beads of grey colouration a la paddlefish. In any event the chilled belvedere helped it down - much better than the NF on offer. Please excuse the banter.

Flamin_June Posted October 23, 2011 #12 Share Posted October 23, 2011 If Wofgang Puck says that paddlefish is the Chevrolet of caviar, that's good enough for me. I always thought the Chevrolet Impala was the coolest, hippest set of wheels around. Actually I thought the caviar spooned out on the Legend last year was of a pretty good standard. Black, shiny, salty, fishy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
