The menus are pretty much identical throughout the fleet. If you look at the long review thread currently being posted by 7x5090G titled "Interactive Preview/Review," he's including some photos of the various dinner menus. Also you might try a search as others have posted menu photos or links thereto in the recent past.

I'm doing an 8-day repo on Caribbean Princess. Anyone know if there's an 8th menu or do they repeat one of the 7-day menus? Last cruise (a year ago) the lobster was not very good but the prawns were fantastic. I asked for more. I think next cruise I'll ask for just the prawns.

No repeats; they'll have a new menu for that 8th day. I've been on up to a 15-day with no repeats -- although I certainly wouldn't mind re-runs of the French Onion soup or Goat Cheese Souffle or Pasta w/Veal!!.

Hi

Just off a 19 day repo on the Coral, the menus were not repeated until day 16, then sailaway (day 1 of the 4 day mini cruise) was repeated. Other than that, we ate in the dining room EVERY night, and there was always something yummy. Even if you do not like soup, please try both the cold and hot soups, they are amazing. Even better to know that all the stocks are made from scratch.

The lobsters were Maine lobsters, and very good, and the prawns were plentiful all the time. Equally good was the lamb and roast beef. We are now back to reality, missing those wonderful dinners, and impeccable service.

Found out that the difference between embarkation and dembarkation is

10 pounds!:D

Thanks for posting those. It makes me anticipate my upcoming cruise even more. It also makes me think of past cruises and trying different things, like the escargot.

That's great news. So I can expect to drop 10 pounds by debarkation? I would settle for 5 lbs. but I'm on a shorter cruise.

Great to know. However, I am also starting to think of some requests I would like to make on the cruise. I would love some kind of sole meuniere or francese. of course they'll have a stroke if I request dover sole meuniere but if someone says they can do it I will ask. had it on HAL and it is as wonderful as Meryl Streep's Julia Child said it was in Julie & Julia. I would settle for a nice sole francese in an egg wash and lemon butter sauce. Yummo.

If you want to know the menu order, you can always ask the staff at the specialty restaurants when you board. They will have a list of the menus and what nights they are on, so making that specialty night restaurant decision is a little easier.

Thanks so much Todd/AlaskaGolden, this is exactly the seven day menu plan that I have been looking for for weeks. Google is an amazing search engine:) I sure appreciate your taking the time to post this with such detail. We are sailing on Caribbean Princess 3/13/11 and most are posting that the menus are the same, so I will go with this.

I loved your comment that the difference between when you walked onto the ship and when you walked off was an extra ten pounds.

I loved your droll post. So true. & said with wit.
