Head's up about the Chef's Table

[H82seaUgo]

When in March? I'm going on a cruise on the 11th - though I have seen a different variation of the Chef's Table menu than what I had on the Chef's Table (like the short ribs)

 

omg! shortribs as one of the "7" courses, :eek

[halos]

Did he give you any ideas of what the new menu might be?

 

There is an entire thread devoted to that right here on the first page and JH posted the menus on his FB page as well

[happy cruzin]

ribs, fried chix and meatloaf? accompanied by blue nun?

 

No. It is now accompanied by a lovely glass of Boone's Farm.

 

Ha! You guys made me choke on my coffee! ;) :D

[Cruzin' Daddy]

I assume the code for the Elation is "EL"?

My wife and I will be on our first cruise in March and are sailing on the Ecstasy. She will be turning 40 on the cruise. Looking on this board to get little tips and such and this chefs table deal kinda looks neat.

 

Someone please tell me the deal on this and why is it special.

We've never had trouble getting a spot and we always sign up soon after boarding. I know on a couple of lines they simply added a table.

I emailed the steakhouse on the Miracle last night and had a response waiting for me this morning! That was crazy fast! We were given a confirmation and a choice of 2 nights on our 3/9/12 sailing. I had a few questions and each time got an email back within an hour or so. Very impressive.:D

Does anyone know what the email address is for the steakhouse on the Miracle is? We also emailed John and haven't heard anything.

Thank you for the info, we are going to email the steakhouse directly.

[LuckyZ]

I appreciate all the advice. I emailed the Maitre D on the Victory last night and got a confirmation first thing this morning (sailing March 18th)

 

Questions

1) they didn't give me any information on which night or nights that I could pick from. Should they have let me know what night my reservation is scheduled for?

 

2) what time does the dinner start?

[MrMrsCruizer]

Thanks again for the email to the steakhouse on the miracle, my husband emailed them this morning and received a confirmation within 10 minutes from the manager. Now that was quick.

[slugman]

Goes on your S&S.

I had the same problem contacting John about the Chef's Table on the Conquest. So after asking CC I sent the email below to cqsteakhouse at carnival com.

 

I got a reply in 24 hours.

 

 

 

This is the info they need.

 

 

I would like to make reservations for 2 for the Chef's Table.

After reading these posts, I sent an email to the Dream Steakhouse requesting reservations for 2 during our upcoming cruise in June. I received a reply/confirmation in LESS THAN 15 minutes!! Super excited for this!

They don't normally tell you what night it is until you board, you will find a letter in your cabin a day or two before your seating. Some ships do tell you in e-mail, I'm sure if you asked, you might get a response as to what day or potential day it could be. For the Chef's Table I attended we met in the Atrium around 6pm and the whole experience was over around 10pm.

[LittleMiss]

Woo hoo!! Just got confirmation on our Chefs Table! Less than 24hrs too :rolleyes:

[Cruisefan6163]

In regards to the table size for the chef's table, it is ONE long table to accomodate all the diners. Usually, it is men on one side, women directly across. On certain ships (Dream, I know of) the chef's table is set up in the galley. On other ships where there is no room in the galley, it is set up in a dance lounge or the library, etc.

My email to visteakhouse (for Victory) got kicked back. Does Victory have a different code?

 

The Victory doesn't have a steakhouse.

[jerray07]

The Victory doesn't have a steakhouse.

 

Email the maitred directly at vimaitred@carnival.com. That is what I did (for the Ecstasy which also has no steakhouse) and had confirmation 3 hours later.

[queenschick9b]

My cruise is a long way off, but I was wondering how far in advance people should I email for the Chef's Table?

[scooterpopsnana]

Since some of the meals are served in the galley (some in the library) it is suggested that all shoes be closed toed and women should not wear heels....the is per the brand ambassador.
