Former Vegetarian Journal Senior Editor Keryl Cryer just let us know about a cruise she took on Holland America Line from Boston to Quebec that offered an incredible veggie menu with many vegan options. Appetizers include Sushi Roll, Vietnamese Vegetable Spring Roll, and a Middle Eastern plate including hummus, stuffed grape leaves, and tabbouleh. Vegan soups include Asian Noodle, Roasted Butternut Squash, and Pasta Fagioli. They also have vegan salads including Spicy Lentil and Garbanzo Salad.

Vegan entrees include Pad Thai Noodles, Vegetable Jambalaya, Sweet and Sour Vegetable Tempura, and Grilled Vegetable and Tofu Kebob. Keryl says, “The vegetarian menu never changed. Each night, they would bring out that menu, as well as the regular menu for the next night. Then, I could decide what I wanted because the options on the veggie menu had to be ordered a day ahead of time. If I wanted one of the (at least) two nightly “gourmet vegetarian” options on the regular menu, I could just request it that night. I usually ended up with some combination of the two menus.”

In addition, Keryl said the “regular” menu also had many veggie options including BBQ Tofu, Asian cuisine, etc. See http://www.hollandamerica.com for more information on this cruise.
