Lobster Night in MDR?

[jdvmd]

We enjoyed the small lobster and red snapper (or some type of fish) on the first night on The Spirit. I asked for lots of extra butter! Next time, I'll order two lobsters along with my extra butter...lol...

 

Have to mention this... If you see Tempura Battered Fried Mushrooms as an appetizer, try them. Very good! Also, the Seafood Bisque & the Seafood Cioppino (seafood stew). Those three selections were served on the last night of our cruise on The Spirit and they were all very good... :)

My husband ordered this as well as the steak for a Surf and Turf. When the meal came, the waiters took it upon themselves to present a second lobster tail to him!

Lobster night is the first night of sailing on any NCL ship.

 

We were just on the GEM three weeks ago, and Lobster night was on Wednesday. We set sail on Sunday.

I think that it varies from ship to ship..........

Possbily could vary based on itineraries and reprovisioning. Been recently on the Sky and Sun and both served lobster on embarkation night.

Well..I plan on Dining in the Main Dining room the fiirst night of my September 22 Jewel Cruise. I don't remember having Lobster night on the first night of a Cruise. If they don't there is always LeBistro.:p:p:p Hi Mike Writ.:p

Less people go to the MDR's on the first night versus the other nights.

 

I would LOVE to see the research evidence that supports this claim. Not to mention how a guest comes across the details of who dines in which room on which night!

Are you sure about that? I have been on several NCL ships and lobster night is usually the second night and usually on the dress up night.

Absolutely sure - surf & turf is the very first night....switched from the 2nd night a while ago.

Not sure when you last sailed on NCL but lobster night is definitely on the first night of the cruise - embarkation night.

No...with the implementation of the new MDR menus fleetwide, NCL executive chef's are REQUIRED to serve MDR Menu #1 (there are 14 in total) on embarkation day. Menu #1 has the Lobster entree. Outside of the embarkation day requirement, the executive chef can rotate through the other menus as they see fit.

 

There are occasionally alterations. On our cruise, they decided to serve lobster with steak on the 2nd night - because that was NYE.

 

Our lobster was very good (better than I expected) and the server brought 2 more plates of just lobster tails for those who wanted more.
