kay21 Posted June 24, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Apologies if this has been asked before. Daughter is dairy-free so we are hoping that she will find soya milk and yoghurt on board Quest. Can anyone advise please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upwarduk Posted June 24, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 24, 2017 (edited) Apologies if this has been asked before. Daughter is dairy-free so we are hoping that she will find soya milk and yoghurt on board Quest. Can anyone advise please? I too am Lactose Intolerant, so I filled in the 'Special Needs' form which I was sent by Azamara when we booked. I asked for Lactose Free milk when I ordered coffee / porridge at breakfast time. I prefer Lactose Free milk as Soya milk curdles in coffee. I have never asked for yoghurt, preferring the 'Specials' the chef made me ( eventually) for the evening meal. Sorbets and jelly were always available in Windows cafe. You should be invited to have a word with the Chef at 6pm on the first evening to discuss your diet. I didn't go then, as I had already been to the dining room ( Discoveries) to speak to the Maite'D earlier in the afternoon, as we had a Meet & Mingle at 6 pm, which I needed to go to, as we had booked 2 tours with people from our Roll Call.

kay21 Posted June 24, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Many thanks for your reply Jackie. Really helpful. We'll make a point of letting the chef know so that there is no granola trauma in the mornings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would only add that having experienced a number of first night meetings re: dietary concerns, the consutations may not be with the Chef, but rather, with the Maitre D' or one of the Head Waiters. In our experience the Head Waiters are very attentive on this issue. The information is not only available in the MDR, but seems to automatically shared with the staff of the Specialty Restaurants.

tazza_0712 Posted June 25, 2017 #5 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Following on from the above, is soy milk available at Mosaics normally? Not lactose intolerant here, however I prefer (I know, strange) soy milk in my coffee. First Azamara cruise coming up in January, and hadn't considered this.
