Sparky2 Posted October 9, 2013 #3 Share Posted October 9, 2013 can anyone give me some of the off menu items available to order in the main dining rooms? Banana Split. It's on the children's menu but not on the adult menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaded99 Posted October 9, 2013 #5 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I ordered a side of mashed potatoes every night last cruise regardless of whether they were on the menu or not... I'm thinking other common side items are probably available too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texasalligator Posted October 9, 2013 #10 Share Posted October 9, 2013 If I can get bitter and blanc every day, I would be thrilled!!!!:) On our last cruise I mentioned to our waiter that I missed my favorite dessert, bitter and blanc, when we did the chefs table. Two nights later he served me one for dessert! Yum! I also could have eaten one every day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golfadj Posted October 10, 2013 #12 Share Posted October 10, 2013 DW has some unusual food allergies so they will make things special for her. Last week she got onion soup several times and they made us both veal parmigan another night. She cannot eat most vegetables and spices and carnival is really great about this.

hlb76 Posted October 11, 2013 #16 Share Posted October 11, 2013 If there is a favorite thing you like just ask in advance normally they are able to accommodate special wishes. My hubby love the carbonara and has special ordered more than once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bplazo Posted October 11, 2013 #17 Share Posted October 11, 2013 On our last cruise some of our table mates asked the chef for a banana cream pie one night, calamari, and a few other things that were not listed on the menu. Personally, I thought they were pitas and were probably annoying the staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robear14 Posted October 11, 2013 #18 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I've asked for a small dish of peanut butter to go with my Warm Chocolate Melting Cake. :D I read someone mention doing it on the boards, so I had to try it. The result was heavenly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite is key lime pie and never see that in DR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeanieTheMom Posted October 12, 2013 #24 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I've ordered a mixed green salad when one wasn't on the menu. By the end of the cruise, sometimes I just don't need any more high fat, high sugar foods, even if they do taste great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccruisequeen Posted October 12, 2013 #25 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I tried ordering creme brulee but since it wasn't offers on a 4-day, it wasn't available. Avoid kids menu pizza at all costs. No sauce, just bread and cheese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
