Veinless Posted August 20, 2023 #101 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Not too custom, but we asked in Luminae for some pancit to get a taste of home, and they happily obliged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do enjoy pan seared salmon with white rice or pickled herring for breakfast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lox, bagel and cream cheese, smoked, cured fish and pickled herring are very popular and regular MDR, Buffet and Luminae breakfast offerings.

I haven't had (pickled) herring for a while, but isn't the smell noticeable? From the next table over? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the next table over? Pickled or Kippered herring in my opinion, has little “smell” or aroma on a plate served. I would ask you; you’ve walked the Buffet and sat next to people where herring was served. Did you notice the smell or aroma? I believe other common dishes, such as bacon, onions, garlic, that big platter of cheese, Indian cuisine have far more powerful aromas, which others may or may not like. But back to the original thread, for those who enjoy kippers here is a treat Luminae will accommodate.

And what in the world made you think I would ever go to the buffet? 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at my previous post where I asked a question about the BROILED fish. A microwave is an example of preparing fish. All you gotta say is, it doesn’t smell.

lylone Posted August 21, 2023 #110 Share Posted August 21, 2023 I asked about "butter chicken" which is an Indian dish we have seen on previous ships in Oceanview. A couple of nights later, the chef(who is from India) came to our table one night and brought us some of his mother's Butter Chicken and even brough us some Mango Lassis. People around us asked us what we did special to get a special meal. We just asked for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Plato123 Posted August 21, 2023 #112 Share Posted August 21, 2023 In Luminae we never order the cheese plate as it is "fresh from the fridge" and tasteless. Instead, at least on S class ships, ask your waiter in Luminae, the day before, if he or she can arrange for a selection of cheeses from Murano. They have superb cheeses at the right temperature and perfect ripeness. Best cheeses at sea, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
