WAMarathoner Posted March 25, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 25, 2018 I was unable to find it in my cruise personalizer. Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefa Posted March 25, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 25, 2018 I was on the CB in November 2016 and there was sushi served in Vines, you could watch the chef making it through the glass window at the back of Vines. I'm travelling again in 2 weeks and I hope it's still served. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted March 25, 2018 #3 Share Posted March 25, 2018 We were on the Caribbean in January. A few times I did notice some sushi in the buffet area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh2B@C Posted March 25, 2018 #4 Share Posted March 25, 2018 You can get sushi in Vines ONLY if you buy a drink. And then the sushi is just a pretty small sampler plate, 3 or 4 pieces. If there is sushi in the buffet, expect mostly rolls of average quality. If you do sushi often and are used to good quality - you will not be impressed by whatever they pass for sushi on the ship. BUT... it is VERY subjective as are most food related impressions. I would suggest you go to Vines and watch someone else order the sushi sampler first to see if it is worth the cost of a drink. You pay for the drink, the sushi is free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAMarathoner Posted March 25, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Thanks so much. It's disappointing news. I'm not a sushi *snob*, but was looking forward to some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esstheman Posted May 1, 2018 #6 Share Posted May 1, 2018 When I was on the Grand Princess last year, I was told that ships that have Alfredo's next to Vines will no longer serve sushi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrak Posted May 1, 2018 #7 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Grand has been that way for a very long time. I think the last time we sailed on Grand was May of 2014. There was no tapas service as Alfredo's is right next door to Vines. They did go across the way and bring us an assorted cheese plate from IC but we could have easily done that ourselves. We sailed CB in March and they had tapas but not always sushi. They brought us some other items that were good. My wife says (just asked her) that she definitely noticed some folks in Vines with sushi on a couple of nights we didn't stop in for wine. Perhaps it was alternating nights or perhaps both setups were available but in that case it would be strange that our waiter didn't mention a choice. When we sailed Emerald last October it seemed that the tapas were always sushi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alas, on both the Caribbean and Emerald, Alfredo's isn't situated next to Vines, as it is on the Grand and, I believe, the Sapphire. I was told that the arrangement made it difficult/impossible to prepare sushi.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told that the arrangement made it difficult/impossible to prepare sushi.... Neither Caribbean nor Emerald even has Alfredo's! They both definitely have tapas in Vines and at least part of the time those tapas are sushi. We ate it on Emerald in October and saw it on Caribbean in March. Sapphire definitely does have Alfredo's and it definitely is next to Vines so it's the same situation as Grand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare geoherb Posted May 2, 2018 #11 Share Posted May 2, 2018 There's also a fried sushi appetizer on one of the regular dinner menus, perhaps the first day's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
