runnergirl71 Posted May 29, 2014 #26 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Based on my experience, "always available" options are not available that last night. Good night to go to Caneletto or Pinnacle Grill. Ew. Neither of which I'm interested in either (especially not Caneletto as I'm traveling solo and it seems to be set up for couples and larger groups). Oh well... I guess I could do room service. Or just get something in Victoria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnaAZ Posted May 29, 2014 #28 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Glad to read the comments as we are on the Westerdam to Alaska on the 28th of June and it's our first venture together on an Alaska cruise or HAL. Everything I continue to read and explore seems to be quite positive about HAL and the Alaska experience. Hubby has been to Alaska a few times in the past for guy trips to hunt and fish but this is my first trip there and his first cruise. We have not made commitments for excursions as I'm looking forward to exploring the ports and we may change our mind on the go. Any comments for dining as I've already arranged for the Pinnacle Grill and the (other?) Italian options plus added the Le Cirque. As long as on vacation why not do something different, eh? Regardless, looking quite forward to the entire experience and especially the glaciers so hopefully that is truly a moment never to be forgotten. That and our 30th anniversary celebration!

jwcsr Posted May 29, 2014 #30 Share Posted May 29, 2014 The always available was available. I agree the selection on international night was not very good. Had the lamb shank which was not good. DH had the always available strip steak, and it as not tender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love lamb and always look forward to that on a ship as dh is not a fan:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudiK Posted May 29, 2014 #32 Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) I thought the selection on international night was the best of the cruise; the risotto was excellent. The lamb shank was flavorful but not as falling apart tender as I am used to My husband had the strip steak twice and both times it was very good Had lamb curry on the Lido for lunch one day and that was also very good Edited May 29, 2014 by JudiK added another sentence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
