We just ask for some wrapped butter and the waiter would bring a plate of it, non problem I think it is better to ask for more than just have what is on the table melting and being wasted.

But many Princess cruisers got upset because of the pat per person. The thread went on for months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, and once they've put it out on the table any unused butter has to be thrown away. Much smarter to keep extra in the chiller section of the waiter stations.

Too true, there is enough wastage on a ship already, last cruise we noticed there was one roll per person on the table (table for 4) while previously there may have been a couple rolls of each kind, maybe 8-10 roll/ bread.

NSWP Posted March 7, 2020 #2683 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Having been to South America a few times, those empanadas are a real treat. Like a Cornish pasty, but nicer. No tomato sauce required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed it does, plenty of onion, tomato and chilli therein, all washed down with a Pisco Sour or two or an icy cold Cusquena beer or an Inca Cola for the non imbibers.

They have pico de gallo or salsa (which simply means sauce) fresca . They use lard . Anything else would be a sin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I know salsa means sauce - which is why I made the comment above in reply to NSWP. Tomato salsa is just another version of tomato sauce. 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatleman Posted March 11, 2020 #2692 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Many thanks Mr Gut for the heads up on the Park Cafe on Radiance of the Sea. Really great Pies made onboard also the sausage rolls were top class. Two types of Pies Beef and Chicken, only drawback was that terrible 57 varieties Tomato Ketchup that is nearly as bad as that yellow mustard, both could be used as paint stripper.😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosella or the Aldi house brand will suffice Uncle Les,the Brown Sauce is good for Mixed Gorillas and Full Pommy Brekky's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted March 11, 2020 #2697 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I like BBQ sauce on chicken pies but Tomato sauce on any other meat pies and sausage rolls. I am not fussy about which brands they have to be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at home we now like Heinz ketchup but really any tom sauce will do. Leigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
