hairymelon Posted June 17, 2013 #26 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I thought the food in Giovanni's Table was excellent. I had the chicken wrapped in ham and it was amazing. The tiramisu was heavenly. I also had lunch there and had the lasagna and would walk back to the ship to have that again! In the MDR I don't think I had a bad meal so difficult to choose a favourite, all the food was well presented, extremely tasty and for me the vegetables were cooked perfectly :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mybelle2 Posted June 17, 2013 #27 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I had a look at the menus and they look amazing. We've only cruised P&O before and there's been the odd night where I've struggled to find something I fancy, but there's something every night that I like the sound of, so I'm a happy bunny.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDA1125 Posted June 17, 2013 #28 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Great link ! I noticed on some other menus that for additional $$$$ you can order 1lb lobster - has anyone done that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsKC08 Posted June 17, 2013 #29 Share Posted June 17, 2013 DH and I both really liked the new menus. There wasn't anything we had that we really didn't like, except for the dessert sampler they offered one night. The garlic soup was to die for. I would have ordered two had I known. DH ordered the Strip steak which is a classic entree that they offer every night and he said it was very good. I tasted it both times he ordered it and it had good flavor and not dried out at all. The chicken breast from the classic daily menu is very good as well...moist and very flavorful. Their mashed potatoes are better than they use to be (coming from my DH who had the old ones on prior cruises). The best dessert in our opinion was the Blueberry Peach Crumble (offered on the first night). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sunset Glow Posted June 17, 2013 #32 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I really enjoyed a few items. I really like seafood:D Starters: Seafood Ceviche, crabcake Mains: Garllic tiger shrimp, snow crab salad, seas scallops Desserts: Carrot cake, lemon meringue pie, warm chocolate cake, sticky bread & butter pudding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esmerelda Posted June 17, 2013 #33 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Mojo Pork Chop. That was my first thought! I'm not even a pork chop fan and this was one of the best entrees I've ever had! Many of the new soups also were very very good. The Asian Coconut seafood soup was very memorable. Also the chilled Banana and Rum soup was GREAT! Our whole group (6) thought that many of the new main dining room dishes were a great improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimala Posted June 17, 2013 #34 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Another vote for the appetizer Crab Cake. We also loved the Eggplant Parmissian, baked in its own oval snapped dish..yummy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM38Rob Posted June 18, 2013 #35 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I enjoy the Beef Sliders w/Steak Fries. They're on the menu every night. You can even order them as an appetizer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windjamming Posted June 18, 2013 #36 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Desserts: Carrot cake, lemon meringue pie, warm chocolate cake, sticky bread & butter pudding Yes, the bread pudding! If you've had the bread pudding at Ohana in Disney World, it's very similar. No weird dried fruit in it. Just plain soft bread, sugar, butter, and cream. Delish!!

Clarea Posted June 18, 2013 #37 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I enjoy the Beef Sliders w/Steak Fries. They're on the menu every night. You can even order them as an appetizer. We did that too one night, as a shared extra entree, just to try them. Not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meaglesjb Posted June 18, 2013 #38 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Yes. Oh thank goodness... I fear DH might have given up cruising entirely if the savoury bites went away! Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMO3CCO1 Posted June 18, 2013 #39 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Seafood Pasta, the lamb and tiger shrimp are the main courses we loved the most. Favorite appetizer was a Creamy mushroom with a flaky croissant like bread on top....crave this still!!! The mushroom soup the next night was wonderful as well. By far the best dessert is the sticky bread pudding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpat48 Posted June 18, 2013 #40 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Looking at the menus of RC Website, i don't see the Indian menu options in the MDR. Have they removed them from the menu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vpat48 Posted June 18, 2013 #42 Share Posted June 18, 2013 (edited) Yes, I can't remember any Indian entrees on the new MDR menus. Any reason for the removal? Was their not much demand for them? It was a nice differentiator from some of the other lines. That's too bad. My mom especially is a very picky eater and she almost exclusively ate the Indian options.

Musigurl Posted June 18, 2013 #44 Share Posted June 18, 2013 You can still order Indian food -- ask your waiter -- they will bring you a list from which you can pre-select for the following evening -- basically, made-to-order. My friend, who's vegetarian really liked this option......but you have to ask -- it's not advertised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron_1978 Posted June 18, 2013 #45 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I am a very picky eater, but even I enjoyed the food greatly every evening. For me the best starter was the Double-boiled chicken consommé, followed by the Cesar Salad (available every day). For the main courses, the ones I really loved were: - Linguini Pomodoro (available every day) - Premium Angus Beef Sliders (available every day) - Three-Cheese Tortelloni (but without the mushrooms) The dessert I still crave for was the Baked Alaska. Extremely sugary and so heavy. But the taste was absolutely fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meaglesjb Posted June 20, 2013 #46 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Vpat48... I wondered the same thing. We enjoyed the Indian options. We often ordered a main each, plus the Indian option each night to share (yes, we are gluttons when we cruise) Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awhcruiser Posted June 20, 2013 #47 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I only found one sugar free dessert on the menu. I hope they still have at least one to choose from. I am also happy to say the have improved the desserts as well. I always found it ironic that with all the food you eat on a cruise, the majority of the desserts were sugar-free. That has changed. They had a very nice variety to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steeler Nation At Sea Posted June 20, 2013 #48 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I only found one sugar free dessert on the menu. I hope they still have at least one to choose from. I think I recall one sugar free and one low fat option offered every night. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molsonschooner Posted June 20, 2013 #49 Share Posted June 20, 2013 DW said the pork chop was fantastic. Well, she also said she liked the prime rib, beef tenderloin and the sea food. Me I loved the chilled soups, chicken marsala and the sticky bread and butter pudding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
