poocher Posted December 1, 2022 #51 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Ok now I have a funny story. First cruise, 2002 on the then Nordic Empress to Bermuda. Night 4 is stuffed sole which i absolutely love. I order it with eager anticipation only to be told they had run out. 🥺🥺 So he brings me a piece of fried fish that was not very good (maybe tilapia???😁). I push it around my plate and eat more appetizers from the buffet. Of course he notices. “But madame, you did not like your dinner?” And we are off to the races. There is a captains meeting on the ship, I get a plate of assorted goodies from their dinner. The HW informs the chef that I did not like my replacement and he makes 2 stuffed soles special for me and sends them up. I now have THREE full dinners in front of me and the waiter & head waiter standing there … waiting. I though I was gonna explode!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were saving the sole for the important people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
