I’ve now officially seen it all. I just wrapped up a stay at the Sheraton Lisbon, which was one of the nicest Sheraton properties I’ve ever stayed at.

The breakfast buffet was mostly unremarkable, at least compared to the likes of the St. Regis Saadiyat Island and Le Meridien Bangkok, except for one little thing — it had caviar with ~~all~~ most of the trimmings.

Now, in fairness it wasn’t the Calvisius caviar with Krug you’d get in ANA first class or Cathay Pacific first class.

It was more like something you’d get in China Southern first class — lets’ call it Duc de Paris and fish egg jam, but it was still caviar and champagne.

Anyone else ever caught off guard by something at a hotel breakfast buffet? How much does lower quality caviar go for anyways?

The Shelbourne in Dublin breakfast buffet has honeycomb straight from the hive, still attached to the wooden frame, displayed on a little easel. Unfortunately, it's pretty hard to dig some out, but it's impressive looking.

I'll agree with Gary. The St. Regis Bali was by far the most surprising breakfast spread I've ever experienced. My hubby got a cooked to order lobster omelette and wagyu beef steak and eggs. They also, in my opinion, had the best french toast I've ever eaten.

@Lucky – About your post several days ago, was it AA's website you used to check Cathay Pacific first class award seats availability? If not, which site did use?

@Lucky - do you have an Uber $30 discount link? The least I could do is use your link. By the way, is there a way around to use Uber for those without access to a smartphone?

If it says "vin mousseux" it means it's a French sparkling wine, not champagne. I also doubt it was fish roe from the fish type classified as 'caviar' (oscietra etc)
