DanceJuani Posted August 20, 2007 #1 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Does Princess have Sushi??? If so, where and is there a charge for it?? Thanks so much in advance!!! Juanita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lois1112 Posted August 20, 2007 #2 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I think alot depends on the ship as to where and when. It is usually in the buffet. sometimes they have a special sushi buffet. no charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-Ked Posted August 20, 2007 #4 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Yes -- on the Tahitian Princess, they had a lunch buffet themed on Asian cuisine, and had a section devoted to sushi. The downside, though, was that it looked and tasted a little old, and the soy sauce was a little odd (not quite the right color or consistency). They didn't have any raw fish sushi (which was actually a relief, because the sushi buffet was about a week into our cruise, and I wouldn't have trusted any raw fish to have been safe), just California rolls and shrimp sashimi. I say all this to forewarn you, since it sounds like you actually know what sushi is supposed to taste like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bphman Posted August 20, 2007 #5 Share Posted August 20, 2007 They served it once in the Cafe Caribe for lunch. It was also available in the wine bar for a fee, of course. If you really like sushi, this is a poor substitute. The fish was all cooked. Don't expect fresh tuna and yellowtail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomars_girl Posted August 20, 2007 #6 Share Posted August 20, 2007 The wine and seafood bar on the Emerald had sushi for $3. I don't eat the stuff, but my DH loved it. He said you got a good amount for the $3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drakes2 Posted August 20, 2007 #8 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Sushi was served during lunch on our last sea day on the Crown and was as good as what we get at home. I'm hoping they have it again on our upcoming cruise in January. You can purchase it in the International Cafe for a nominal charge.quote=stoneharborlady;11298036]Saw sushi in Caribe Cafe, at dinner one night.

Martin and Lindsey Posted August 20, 2007 #9 Share Posted August 20, 2007 They have an oriental buffet at lunch time in the Cafe Caribe on the Caribbean Princess. They serve sushi there. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spikesgirl Posted August 20, 2007 #10 Share Posted August 20, 2007 We just got off the Grand and there was sushi (along with other Asian dishes) one day at the buffet. It was okay, but not fabulous, while some of the other dishes were very good. My real complaint that was that they used regular rice and not sushi rice - that makes a big difference in the flavor. The sushi we had last year on the Pacific Princes was over-the top fabulous though, so it really depends upon the ship. Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quincytoo Posted August 20, 2007 #11 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Yes we had a Sushi buffet on the pool deck about noonish on the Diamond Princess the second day at sea BUT it wasn't good at all. They don't use the proper sushi rice and they used alot of rice and had sparse fillings. Supermarket sushi is better then what was served. We really really enjoyed the food on the Diamond and the sushi was the only thing we did not like. We were soo looking forward to it (alright already I had *abit* of a hangover and sushi has always been my hangover comfort food) and were disappointed.....That said, here in BC we have good sushi restaurants everywhere.

the_dylaness Posted August 21, 2007 #13 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Sushi at the lunch buffet in HC on the Grand in March. If you can call it that. There are many other tastier things aboard the Princess ships IMHO than incorrectly prepared rice, gummy nori, and cream cheese and fake crab.

BigBlue120 Posted August 21, 2007 #14 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Had a buffet one afternoon near the pizza station on the pool deck. All cooked, too much rice. Occasionally popped up at Horizon court. Only worthwhile item was halibut wrapped around smoked salmon. Not quite sashimi, but the best available.

TorontoTL Posted August 21, 2007 #15 Share Posted August 21, 2007 The Vines cafes in the Piazza's of the Crown, Emerald, and the upcoming Ruby Princess are the place to go for really good sushi on Princess. They offer the real thing served on a bed of nice seaweed/kelp salads. Very very nice for only $3 and extra pieces $1 each. On the other ships when they prepare it for the buffet it really isn't real sushi and I always skip that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
