need2bespoiled Posted February 20, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I've seen a caviar offering at the Martini bar on a few ships. Happy sailing, Jenna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
true45 Posted February 20, 2015 #3 Share Posted February 20, 2015 There was caviar on DH fritata in Blu (breakfast). He said it was delicious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo70 Posted February 20, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 20, 2015 True caviar likely would only be found at Murano for a supplement. Some other venues may occasionally have roe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevnzworld Posted February 20, 2015 #5 Share Posted February 20, 2015 You would have to sail on Seabourn. They offer an everyday caviar platter. Celebrity doesn't have it anywhere that I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen it offered at Murano (and the equivalent specialty restaurant on M-Class ships). Celerity's website still lists caviar service for Murano: http://www.celebritycruises.com/onboard-celebrity/cruise-restaurants-murano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo70 Posted February 20, 2015 #8 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Guess we were wrong Most likely it was roe, not caviar. Caviar is extremely expensive and not likely to be included in food at Blu. A lot of people call all fish eggs "caviar" but most are roe and not actual caviar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Frances Posted February 20, 2015 #9 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Maybe in Crush? Martini Bar & Crush On the totally cool, ice-topped bar, our talented bartenders put on a high-energy show preparing an intriguing menu of classic and contemporary martinis, including the 20-Year Martini in celebration of Celebrity's 20th Anniversary. Sit back in the contemporary plush high-back chairs while listening to up-tempo tunes and enjoy a collection of classic and rare vodkas and a portfolio of fine caviars.

My wife fell in love with caviar on our Regent cruises where it's free at the captain's reception. She was all charged up for a "caviar orgy" on a two week land tour of Russia we had set for last summer but had to cancel due to a health issue. Now she WILL have caviar on this cruise. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena7seas Posted February 20, 2015 #12 Share Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) Most likely it was roe, not caviar. Caviar is extremely expensive and not likely to be included in food at Blu. A lot of people call all fish eggs "caviar" but most are roe and not actual caviar. Caviar IS roe. What makes the difference is that, by definition, caviar is the processed (usually salt-cured) roe of sturgeon. There are 26 different types of sturgeon, and technically, the roe from most of these could be processed into caviar, except for the green sturgeon, which is I understand is (or can be) poisonous. The most commonly known and appreciated caviars have traditionally been beluga, osetra and sevruga caviars. There is excellent caviar produced by many countries, and excellent certified organic, sustainable caviar is produced here in British Columbia.

Gonzo70 Posted February 20, 2015 #13 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Caviar IS roe. Yes, that is what I said. But most roe is not caviar. It is the same with sparkling wine/champagne. All champagne is sparkling wine, but most sparkling wine is not champagne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karena1 Posted February 20, 2015 #14 Share Posted February 20, 2015 When we were on Summit last year, hubby had Eggs Benedict every morning with Caviar on top. He loved it. Looking forward to the same thing on Silhouette! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boscobeans Posted February 20, 2015 #16 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Search around in a few good supermarkets or gourmet shops and you can find some pretty good pasteurized "caviars" at very reasonable prices. Try a few, you might be surprised! I know, not the best but plunked into your ice bucket for a while to chill it down it makes for a nice tasty treat with a glass of vodka and some water crackers while watching the stars roll by from your veranda.

need2bespoiled Posted February 21, 2015 #17 Share Posted February 21, 2015 There is most definitely cavier service at the Martini bar (crush, whatever) and for the price, which I believe was about $150 it should be on the better side. I can't rememer the price for sure but I definitely saw it on the menu on constellation and saw it ordered in multiple nights. Happy sailing, Jenna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisead Posted February 21, 2015 #18 Share Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) They have Osetra in Murano, for an up charge of $150 for a tiny jar. The caviar they put on things like the eggs is a paddlefish roe or salmon roe, as the chef explained to us during a cooking demonstration. They rarely use sturgeon roe for garnish anymore. They also tend to use farm raised rather than wild caught. Edited February 21, 2015 by cruisead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
