Velvetwater Posted July 20, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) Just been reading a few food threads and see lots of discussion on how bitter and blanc and WCMC are wonderful and how the baked alaska and pumpkin pie are horrible. However I never see anyone mention my favourite Carnival MDR dessert....the pecan pie! Anyone else love this dessert or is it just me?

losijon Posted July 20, 2014 #3 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Never had it on any of my cruises but pecan pie is my favorite. Now I must try it next time. .....................................................

JohnSpo Posted July 20, 2014 #7 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) That sure looks like a good pecan pie. Hopefully it is on the regular MDR menu and not just on the new American Table menu. Edited July 20, 2014 by JohnSpo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratherbcruisingnow Posted July 20, 2014 #8 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) I like the Baked Alaska!! Had it on the Fascination and it was great.. Thanks for the heads up on the pecan pie. Cruising next weekend and will add it to my to-do list. Edited July 20, 2014 by Ratherbcruisingnow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velvetwater Posted July 20, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I like the Baked Alaska!! Had it on the Fascination and it was great.. Thanks for the heads up on the pecan pie. Cruising next weekend and will add it to my to-do list. Haha I actually love the pumpkin pie too! Pecan pie is from the old menus and not new American ones. With the replies I am now wondering if it is only on 12/longer day menus? I thought Carnival might mix up the menus and offer different ones on 7 days but maybe not. Its called 'Southern style pecan pie' and apparently it has 'a hint of orange'. As Zydeco's website shows we had it on day 5 and it was on the same menu as duck pot stickers, Cornish hen and chocolate and hazelnut tart (obv they mix menus up sometimes but you never know).

golfadj Posted July 20, 2014 #11 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Dont remember seeing it on any of my Carnival cruises both short or long. If on the menu would definitely make it to my plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snc_cam Posted July 20, 2014 #13 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I too can't remember seeing it... for if I had, I would have most certainly got it (and with the ice cream too :)) .... now you have me thinking of this plus getting the sundaes for dessert at dinner.

kybluecruiser Posted July 20, 2014 #14 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I am wondering if this is on the holiday menu for thanksgiving or Christmas? Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
092306 Posted July 20, 2014 #15 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Never saw this as an option either! Will definitely try if it shows up on a menu. It's one of DH's favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpstateCruizer Posted July 20, 2014 #16 Share Posted July 20, 2014 15 cruises and have never seen pecan pie. Not even on the 15 day Hawaii cruise. I haven't had the new American Table menus though. Desserts on the ship are seriously lacking ...in flavor for most of them anyway. It works out for me since it saves calories lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snc_cam Posted July 20, 2014 #17 Share Posted July 20, 2014 actually, I think the desserts on the buffet for lunch are better than the ones for dinner. Much more variety Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvetwater Posted July 20, 2014 Author #18 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I had it last year on my 12 day Baltics last August so it definitely isn't the new american menu or a christmas/thanksgiving thing. Surely they wouldn't have it just for European sailings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy.capitan Posted July 20, 2014 #19 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Certainly on 12 day or longer cruises. European, Transatlantic, Transpacific, Hawaii... Don't think there have been any long cruises with the American Table yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissKIA Posted July 20, 2014 #20 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I don't recall seeing it on our Hawaii cruise either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfadj Posted July 20, 2014 #21 Share Posted July 20, 2014 American table has a pie each night but two times we have seen this menu, pecan pies were not offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GradUT Posted July 20, 2014 #23 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I've never seen it on the menu but if it were, my husband would definitely order it. And then he would tell me that my pecan pie is better. (He's a very smart man.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
