SadieN Posted April 14, 2016 #2 Share Posted April 14, 2016 (edited) http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2173605 No one complained that there wasn't any matzoh. Edited April 14, 2016 by SadieN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azdmelani Posted April 14, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Does anyone know if Princes have matzo available on cruises over Passover? Was on a cruise over passover 4 years ago. I think there were Passenger led seders and Matzah was available upon request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare NorbertsNiece Posted April 14, 2016 #7 Share Posted April 14, 2016 (edited) What's the difference apart from the colour of the packet. Same ingredients! It's to do with kitniyot..... not about to go into the different dietary regs between Ashke**** and Sephardi here.

SadieN Posted April 15, 2016 #8 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Also how it's baked. Matzoh for Passover has a strict time limit from water added to fully baked. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jetswdo Posted April 15, 2016 #9 Share Posted April 15, 2016 We were on the Royal Princess 2 years ago over Passover. At the time it was standard matzah, it wasn't Kosher for Passover- the cheap Manishevitz wine even said "not Kosher for Passover." The supposed matzah ball soup was miso soup with tiny hard balls in it off supposedly matzah meal. We were very disappointed as the meal was truly awful. The passengers that attended including dh and myself, led a "sort of service"--- This was the year that Princess got cheap and would no longer offer any deals for clergy to be on board during major holidays. Any way, we decided in the future not to book any cruises with Princess over Passover time in the future. And I should mention, we are very reform!

caribill Posted April 15, 2016 #10 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Does anyone know if Princes have matzo available on cruises over Passover? They usually do in both the dining rooms and the buffet, but you have to ask for it. Hardest part is finding someone to ask who knows what you are talking about. You might want to bring a picture of it from home (maybe a picture from an old package). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azdmelani Posted April 15, 2016 #12 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Good point. You can bring your own Kosher for Pesach matzah if you would like. You can also order kosher meals through Princess, though I am not sure if they will be Passover Kosher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We avoid Shmurah at all costs, though it's probably better the Imodium when needed. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never knew that, but totally agree! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
