Bread and butter pudding used to be on the “always available” list. When we were on 7 Arcadia to the fjords with my cousin and her husband he had it for dessert every night! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always order the seared tuna when it's on the menu. It's always been pink inside and lovely. Maybe I've been lucky. It's only on the menu once during a cruise so I never miss. I wish they'd put it on more than once like they do some others. I've tried replicating it at home but can't get it the same. They must use a secret ingredient😆.

I love swordfish. I don't know if it's me , but the dark flesh seems to have the flavour of kippers. The first time we had swordfish was about 40 years ago in a tiny taverna in Kefalos. It was served with fried onions and a fried egg on top. It was amazing. I've never seen it served like that since, but I still do it like that when I occasionally cook it at home.

The problem with tuna is that it can easily be overcooked which makes it dry and tough. It's like calamari , it only needs showing to the heat.

majortom10 Posted June 23, 2020 #449 Share Posted June 23, 2020 That is one reason why I prefer Princess and Cunard to P&O the food is more International dont go on holiday wherever it might be to eat Liver & Onions and Bread & Butter pudding. Really do think P&O should be a little bit more adventurous and varied with their food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love that but I suppose it was for a set destination. there’s no many rice or pasta dishes compared to the potatoes ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
