What's your favorite "always available" entree?

Just curious whether anyone has found a real winner on the "always available" dinner menu. Other than the shrimp cocktail and Caesar salad, I see:

 

Grilled salmon with herb and lemon butter

 

Pan seared corn-fed chicken with thyme jus

 

Grilled beef medallions

 

Spice-rubbed tri tip roast

 

Sirloin beef burger topped with Stilton and mushrooms

 

I'm sure I've had one or two of these, but I can't say it made a huge impression. I might have had the salmon, and it might have been good. Is there one you turn to in case none of daily menu items catches your eye?

The salmon. I also like the chicken if I'm all sea-fooded out. I don't like the tri-tip at all. I am also not a big fan of burgers on Princess, so I avoid that. My grandson always orders the medallions (with no sauce) every night.

I love the salmon.

 

This subject is kind of a joke between dh and myself. Because I have been on cruises (the last one being the Caribbean Princess, when I asked for the Fettuccini Alfredo) where the waiter seems to take it personally and they seem to get insulted & try to talk me out of ordering off of the always available menu. I don't know why! Sometimes I may want to order off it and we'll joke it is not worth going thru the big deal with the waiter.

I've ordered the grilled salmon as many as 5 times on a cruise. I can't get enough of it. It must be all that herbed butter on top!

 

Oh, and another vote for the fettuccine Alfredo. I've had that as many as five times on 1 cruise, too.

None of the above.

Fettuccine Alfredo in an entree-sized portion.

And I agree with shredie that I find the tri-tip to be out-and-out awful.

 

Ding! Ding!! Ding!!! We have a winner. :D

 

(Of course we do want it in the Parmesan bowl!)

 

It's not an entree but I feel like I really must add the Crème brûlée...
