Rare QuattroRomeo Posted April 28 #1 Share Posted April 28 I am considering ordering the hors d'oeuvres as a surprise for DH; he loves smoked salmon and pate. Not sure from the photo what else is on the plate. Anyone try it and would recommend? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tunafish Posted April 28 #2 Share Posted April 28 I would book a specialty restaurant or something else. these are premade in the morning and usually look like a pre-packed sandwich from a supermarket. just my 0.02 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrill Posted April 28 #3 Share Posted April 28 (edited) I often ordered these to be delivered to the room on embark day, and found them to be very good. The photo is accurate - they're similar to pate or mousse. However, the price has increased substantially, and unless they've done something spectacular with them, it's no longer a good value for me. Just MHO. Edited April 28 by Boatdrill 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in AZ Posted April 28 #4 Share Posted April 28 (edited) I have ordered these several different times for different cruises, mostly for get togethers with cruise friends. Done very well. I preorder from home to arrive on embarkation and I refrigerate them when we get to the room. If I get several trays I put them all on one so they fit. The pate mousse is good and there is a shrimp one and cheese, usually Brie, too. Here’s an example: Edited April 28 by Sharon in AZ 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syesmar Posted April 30 #9 Share Posted April 30 I don’t know if they still do, but I recall an appetizer similar to the salmon one in the photo being available (complimentary) in the Explorations Cafe. So good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So good! There might be! I know the Dutch Cafe sometimes had smoked salmon in their showcase. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So good! I just noticed this photo from the Grand Dutch Cafe in another Thread and there’s a salmon appetizer in the display on the bottom right. Good to know they’re still available!

Rare QuattroRomeo Posted May 23 Author #12 Share Posted May 23 On the Rotterdam, the smoked salmon appeared in GDC under a glass dome. This photo is from my December 2023 review. The dome wasn't always so lonely- just happened to be this way when I took the photo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
