Liberty WJ with caviar and lobster tails!

[39august]

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.

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!

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.

Possibly the caviar was left over and ready to expire due to no one else is eating it either. :D;)

There was Lobster (and other assorted seafood, but not caviar) in the WJ on the last night on Oasis last week.

Lol this.

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!

We met you and I didn't know it, we meet you in the windjammer and Viking Crown, Now I can put a face with a screen name, it was a pleasure

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. :)

Serenade had lobster tails in WJ for lunch the day after lobster night

Wow, what a way to yuck their yum.

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

[George C]

Do not recall seeing caviar in specialty restaurants or suite lounge (on Liberty), remember when it was a regular appetizer on RCCL

[toxicfairy]

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😊

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)

It was black. Probably a substitute unless they were able to buy some cheap stuff in St. Petersburg!

[Tatka]

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.

Around $200 at Coastal Kitchen on Allure. [emoji33]

I saw the same picture in Instagram.

 

Did they say how good the Caviar tasted?

Don't recall. I'm sure to save face they would say it was awesome.

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.

[Jimnbigd]

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.

[Sailor_Sally]

On our Freedom of the Seas TA they had all you can eat lobster on the last night in the Windjammer .

[depplep]

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:
