39august Posted June 13, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Last month on Liberty we encountered caviar at dinner in the WJ twice in one week. Not the best of course, but hey, still those little fish eggs. On the last night there were lobster tails and shrimp on ice at the back. Do other ships do this also? We love dinner in the WJ on Liberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted June 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I remember, in my childhood, my mother making "fish roe cakes"...so god-awful....there is NO WAY in heaven or hell that I would willingly eat "caviar"...I don't care if it comes from some "special" fish...if the eggs are orange or yellow or red or black...it's fishy and nasty! Now, lobster and shrimp are fine. I cook them regularly at home...fast and easy...I consider "seafood" to be "fast food"! Shrimp takes about 3 mins. to prepare!

gerif Posted June 13, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 13, 2017 My guess is that they were left over from the "fisherman's platter" served the evening before. Don't know about the caviar - can't stand the stuff, even the expensive kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly the caviar was left over and ready to expire due to no one else is eating it either. :D;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KuffMUp Posted June 14, 2017 #7 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I think I saw Caviar on the menu in Chopped. Never tried it. Might once just to say I did! I expect it to be briney. We had some raw oysters from the Puget Sound and man those were super briney. Oregon Oysters are less salty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are suggesting that people love nasty stuff? Hmmm I would love to have real caviar at WJ, especially real black caviar.. it is a cost prohibitive though for buffet. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruizinmimi Posted June 14, 2017 #12 Share Posted June 14, 2017 The lobster tails and the shrimp on the LOS was so good in the WJ. I can't believe how big those shrimp were. I ate my share!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted June 14, 2017 #13 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Do not recall seeing caviar in specialty restaurants or suite lounge (on Liberty), remember when it was a regular appetizer on RCCL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicfairy Posted June 14, 2017 #14 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Oh I do hope they have this on our sailing in late August on LOS. Husband loves shrimp and I Love Love Love lobster! I don't care who says it's tiny or frozen or what have you. It's not in my everyday price range so I get it on a cruise or if I'm lucky my anniversary or Birthday😊 Sent from my SM-J700T1 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voyager70 Posted June 14, 2017 #15 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Now that I think about it I do remember caviar a few nights in the DL/CL during a Baltics cruise several years ago. It wasn't stand alone caviar, they had it sprinkled over hard boiled eggs and a couple other things (can't remember what) on the appetizer table. I couldn't get up the courage to try it.

Was it red or black? If black it's probably a substitute (not a real black caviar... as it cost about $80 for 100gr) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a substitute unless they were able to buy some cheap stuff in St. Petersburg! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatka Posted June 14, 2017 #18 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I wonder how cheap it is in St Petersburg now. Still probably a lot. We bought it some time ago from some not very legal business in Astrahan (on Volga), but in "capitals" it is definitely not cheap nowdays. Tastes of real black caviar and other fish caviar colored in black are like day and night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

39august Posted June 14, 2017 Author #22 Share Posted June 14, 2017 The black caviar was in a huge bowl on ice near the salad area. There were all the fixings that go with. I just like that briny taste, so I was happy. The lobster made me even happier. I.too. remember when we saw caviar in the concierge lounges. Many years ago, Voyager and Jewel offered caviar during "happy hour" when you bought a drink in the champagne bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimnbigd Posted June 14, 2017 #23 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Nice. We might check it out on our November cruise. I thought the leftover lobster from the 2nd formal night was used for the lobster bisque the next cruise first formal night, but maybe not.

depplep Posted June 14, 2017 #25 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I miss the days when you could order caviar in the Champagne Bar. As a matter of fact, I miss the Champagne Bar in general. :loudcry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
