Cheese tray question......

[alb1956]

Does anyone know about the cheese tray they have on the dinner menu......is it an extra charge if you order it or is it included with the dinner?? (free)

[Hockey Addict]

The one on the dessert menu? Free!

My Mom loves the dessert cheese tray.. it's got several different pieces ..and this candied pear, If I'm not mistaken. Very good!

It has a small square of about 7 cheeses. My sister used to get it all the time.

YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks everyone!!! We'll be ordering ita few times then!!!

[firefly333]

I think if you only like one kind, you can ask for just that one and get more of it. Like I would just want the brie.

We have ordered the cheese plate as a appetizer and munch on the cheese throughout dinner.

Thanks for the suggestion ordering as a appetizer. I am a bread person and that bread looks delicious.

[Dee777]

Oh boy, that cheese IS delicious! And if you ask for it as an appetizer and eat it with the bread it's even deliciouser!

 

Our first cruise we were in a party of 17 people and our tables used to order 2 or 3 cheese plates per table almost every night!

Hmm...maybe I'll have to try this :)

I'm usually to tempted by the word chocolate, ha

I love the cheese platter!

 

Can someone recommend a good wine to go with it for desert?

[xbatt8]

We always have our waiter bring out a cheese platter for each 2 people at the table and have it waiting for us when we get there every night. It is awesome with the different bread choices.

They usually have some grapes with brie, blue cheese, gouda, and a few more. When DD was little, cheese and grapes were some of the few things she would eat. We asked the waiter if he could have them with appetizers. He always had the plate waiting in her spot when we got there each night!

She still orders it each night!

Yes you can, did that last year on the Liberty.

Here's a photo of the cheese plate that I got this summer on the Spirit. The cheese was great, the fruit was fine, the bread was a bit too dry and tateless. I belive it was a date/nut bread.

Can you get it to go? I would love to take that up to the room and have a nice little snack with DH... Will they wrap it up for you?

I can't imagine why they wouldn't.

[alb1956]

We asked for a clean napkin to cover the plate and took it back to the cabin for a late night snack. I think the cheese plate is also on the cabin service menu.:)

[amichel]

The cheese plate is one of my favorite things.

[golfadj]

Wow never knew we could get cheese tray as app.

Just so you know, EVERYTHING and even multiple orders of everything is free in the MDRs, Lido Buffet, Pizza, Deli, Grille, Sushi bar and Room Service........

 

You can even order cappucino and espresso in the MDR at any meal without an additional charge.

 

everywhere is free EXCEPT the Pastry Shop, the Specialty Restaurant and if they are still doing a trial on some ships that don't have a specialty restaurant you can order a better steak in the MDR that is for a charge but it is clearly marked on the menu.

 

I just thought I would add this since your question came across as someone who hadn't cruised on Carnival very much.

Ask the waiter to leave the cloche on. I do this and have appetisers in my cabin all week.

I've often ordered the cheese plate in place of dessert after I've had too many days of eating too much. Ordering it in the dining room to take back to the cabin is a good idea. Most of the time when I've ordered a cheese plate from room service they've just given me a few thin slices of cheese, similar to what you'd find at the buffet for breakfast. The dining room plate is much nicer.

Yes you can get it to go. We've done that and they just bring it to you on a covered plate. The newbies at our table were amazed. lol
