Have you ever wondered why shrimp cocktail seems to vanish on cruise menus; it’s like they give you just enough to tease your palate, then poof! Gone before you can enjoy a second helping. I was planning our menu for next month, and I can’t shake the feeling that we need a shrimp cocktail intervention. Any clever ideas for keeping this popular dish from disappearing into thin air?
It’s like they treat shrimp cocktail like a magician’s rabbit — here one second, gone the next! For our last cruise, we had luck misplacing the last few dishes just so we could snag more shrimp. Maybe keeping a ‘reserve’ at the back could help, right @ShrimpLover?
You know, I totally get your struggle with shrimp cocktail disappearing so fast! Last cruise, I started asking for extra servings right when I ordered; the servers were super accommodating, and I ended up enjoying it much more. Maybe a little upfront request could help keep it on your plate longer.
I’ve noticed the same thing! Next time, try keeping a small insulated container for leftovers; it worked wonders for my dessert!
