wantocruisemore Posted December 10, 2013 #2 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I'm crying about no Grand mariner soufflé, Bitter n Banc or Creme Brûlée. :( I can probably find something to eat for meal itself, but honestly most of the desserts seem like something from the Lido.

trvlgirlmq Posted December 10, 2013 #3 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Less choices all around, my favorite desserts gone, no more yummy soups. The elegant night menus don't offer any alternatives. I like filet mignon but I abhor horseradish. Will I be able to get something else? Also, only 1 dessert on elegant night? That is not ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamrose228 Posted December 10, 2013 Author #4 Share Posted December 10, 2013 One huge difference is the different steaks offered each night....rib eye.....yummy, ny strip ...also they are offering prime ribs on a non elegant night......no more meatloaf for DH the beef eater!!!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth Posted December 10, 2013 #5 Share Posted December 10, 2013 The soups were my favorite at dinner. Seems more like cut backs to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPfromCT Posted December 10, 2013 #6 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I recall JH saying that the WCMC was not going away, yet I don't see it anywhere:eek::eek::eek: Are there going to be "everynight" desserts, along with the "one" special each night? Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems more like cut backs to me. better cuts of steak over meatloaf is a cutback :scratches head: Soups were not pricey to produce, I think it just was not a well ordered item.

TerReuv Posted December 10, 2013 #8 Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) Color me stupid, but these menu's still confuse me. Can I order a caesar salad just for me? It says for the table. Is there still some type of everyday menu for those of us picky eaters? Can folks who want it still order multiple dinners? Can you order more sides? The menu's seem to be more about getting folks to order drinks and cocktails instead of more food choices. I have to say I am not really impressed. The sides seem almost the same day after day. I liked having my side match my entree. Seems like there are less choices. More dishes with a lot of things I don't like. I know that is just personal, but I liked having a fried chicken to fall back on. Certainly not every night but it was nice knowing it was there if I did not like anything on the menu. Hardly any appetizer choices. Oh yeah - and can I still get a banana split from the kids menu? :) Edited December 10, 2013 by TerReuv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone? It's called Carnival Melting Cake now. There is that plus only 2 other selections each night. Elegant night seems to only have 1 dessert option.

Hardly any appetizer choices. If there was a "Like" option I would hit it. I'm not overly picky either I just have a preference in flavors and the ones now offered do not match it. The sides are also pretty "meh" in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgiagolfer Posted December 10, 2013 #11 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Where is everyone seeing all these selections? I clicked on the above link, and only 2 memus come up, and sems like nothing you guys are discussing.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeg001 Posted December 10, 2013 #12 Share Posted December 10, 2013 When is this rolling out fleet wide or any idea on how each ship will get scheduled for the change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutumbojimbo Posted December 10, 2013 #13 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I know that food is very subjective, but this looks like fewer but better choices to me. I like the various cuts of beef offered, and the port specific selections look very interesting. We had creme brûlée for the first time on our most recent cruise, I guess it doesn't make the rotation on 4 night sailings, and it was ok, but kind of runny, maybe the kitchen was off that night. There is still melting cake and ice cream, and less dessert wouldn't be the worst thing for me. ;) Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American Feast, you should see two, for the two "elegant" nights. Hope this helps. You just need to scroll down.:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

springs741 Posted December 10, 2013 #17 Share Posted December 10, 2013 The posted menus are disappointing. I do love food but honestly the lack of desserts and the lack of appetizers leave me wanting more. And the main dish offerings leave me wanting the old menu. I have one more carnival booked for April on the Miracle. I should still have the "old" menus so I will really try to enjoy them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elspeth Posted December 10, 2013 #18 Share Posted December 10, 2013 The appetizers, entrees, port of call selections, rare finds, all that looks great. I wish there were more salad and soup options, but I can live with it. The desserts on the other hand, well, I guess it is a good thing I don't eat a lot of sweets. The new dessert menu will help see to that. Cheeseplate for dessert gone as well as bitter and blanc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CruisinCrow Posted December 10, 2013 #19 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Thanks for posting the links! I'm glad to see that escargot is still on the menu. The soups and desserts seem really limited though. And the salads are non-existent. My husband isn't going to be happy about no salad. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare pyropoodle Posted December 10, 2013 #20 Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) Does anyone know when this takes effect? is it only for the Glory or all ships immediately? i'm on the Legend in January, so just curious. eta..personally i like that they changed 'didja' to 'rare finds'---it sounds a little classier Edited December 10, 2013 by pyropoodle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are on the Miracle next month - I honestly dont mind the new menus, I see something that I would enjoy on each one. I'm just curious how long it will take for them to roll this out to all the ships? Should we expect no changes by next month?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK thanks, it finally came up with all the menus. Gonna miss most of the soups and salads, as seems like they are gone, as with most of the appetizers. As I posted in another thread, if service with the 3 man teams in the MDR is not improved, new menus will not make any difference in the dining experience, regardless of the food.
