Herring for breakfast?

[inai]

My DH loves having herring for breakfast when we are cruising. Just wondering if anyone has noticed it on the menu or at the breakfast buffet.

I believe HAL used to have herring at breakfast buffet, but don't recall seeing it lately, although I've not been on HAL in almost a year. But, I do know I've seen it on the breakfast menu in the dining room on some mornings.

Smoked herring in the dining room for breakfast all the time when we were on the Rotterdam in May. Intermittently in the Lido

Does he like smoked salmon? There's plenty of that....delicious:)

Ahoy!

 

Kippered herring is always available on the breakfast menu in the DR and can be ordered on the room service card for A.M. delivery. Also available in the Lido for breakfast every 2-3 days, alternating with smoked salmon and pickled herring. Usually a cold seafood salad or two available for lunch in the Lido. And, of course, in the main DR there always seems to be a seafood appetizer and at the very least one (but usually two) main course seafood selections (and you can ask the server if, perhaps, he could make a slab of Halibut 'happen' even if it's not on the menu).

 

Have yourselves a GREAT CRUISE!

 

Bon Voyage and Good Health!

Think I'll stick with the traditional English "heart attack on a plate" , thank you. :D ;)

DH had the Kippered Herring in the Pinnacle a couple of mornings (same as dining room) on our recent Maasdam cruises.

Hi Yonnie :)

 

 

Was it by request, or standard on the breakfast menu?

[Krazy Kruizers]

Hi Vic

It was listed on the breakfast menu which is the same for the dining room and the Pinnacle.

Finnan Haddie was one of the breakfast specials on the Amsterdam in April. YUM!

Thank you all for your replies about the herring. DH will be pleased, since our last cruises (not on HAL) did not offer herring at all.

 

And I love herring, BUT NOT FOR BREAKFAST.:eek:

 

Thanks

Great - I was starting to get worried by other posts. When I was younger, a lot younger, and stationed outside Paris, our favorite Parisian Sunday breakfast, or perhaps it was closer to lunch, was pickeled herring, a good dry white wine, and lots of very fresh French bread! Believe me, that will wake you up.

 

Best selection of herring and other cold fish I have seen on ships was on Vistafjord and more recently on Norwegian Coastal Voyage Trollfjord earlier this year!

Jim if you want to try something really special try some smoked sturgeon, very good. Unfortunately its a bit pricey, but worth trying, very subtle and almost buttery
