Prime rib med-rare. SB

[alfaeric]

We like the arancini as an appetizer.

 

Also, the basic tomato sauce is quite good, too. It's in a few dishes.

 

DW likes the lobster bisque- but don't expect many actual parts of lobster in it.

Fisherman's Platter and the cold soups, especially the strawberry soup.

[susieatsea]

I agree with dacsmom...fisherman's platter and cold soups....:)

[OfTheSeasCruiser]

The prime rib and the fisherman's platter. Also enjoyed many of the desserts, but can't think of specific names.

Just looked up the fisherman's platter. I'm not much of a red meat eater. Must get! I will need someone to remind of this 😛

[molsonschooner]

I really like the chicken Marsala DW. Always enjoys the lobster/fisher mans plate. The strawberry bisque is awesome. For dessert, try the sticky bread and butter pudding.

[MattInFLL]

Chilled Strawberry Bisque (on the Pimiento menu).

 

I also like the Sliders.

 

And I've ordered the extra charge filet mignon with good results.

How is the lasagna on RCI?

[geogran]

Just off the Allure a week ago - MDR Dinner favorites:

 

Lamb shank

Grilled Salmon - a close second

Cold soups especially strawberry and mango (different nights)

 

 

Lasagna for lunch at Giovanni's (specialty restaurant) is exceptional as was everything we tried at Giovanni's.

[stewartgirl721]

Loved the tortinelli (sp) with Mars. cheese

All the cold soups. Tandori chicken salad. Beef sliders with that sauce amazing. If you have a Chops steakhouse it is super good exp. the Mississippi mud pie.

 

Also don't miss the salad bar that they have in the MRD for lunch on sea days.:)

I loved the toasted farro and lambs broth, arancini and lamb shank for entree plus the chicken Marsala. Actually I don't think there was much I didn't enjoy!

I like it.

[Smokey Mountain Tim]

Prime rib and the artichoke creps.

Under the "new" menu I love the pork chop off the "mojo" menu. I think that is the one. I've had it three times and its been good each time. I frequently don't eat Pork Chops in restaurants because are frequently dry. Because of my lap band surgery, dry meat is my enemy. Another food I rarely eat at a restaurant is Lasagna. Most restaurant lasagna seems overloaded with Ricotta cheese and I don't like that. Maybe good lasagna is suppose to be that way, but I don't think so. The RC version is meaty and has a great creamy sauce.

 

My next favorite meal might be one I have near had. My first cruise, a 7 day one back in 2006 there was a Caribbean themed night. By judging opinions I heard on this forum and from other cruisers, this was the least popular night on 7 day or longer cruises. A lady at our table ordered some sort of Cajun chicken meal and 10 years later I regret not ordering it. It looked wonderful. My next 7 day cruise came in 2008 and that menu was gone.

Savory Bites, onion tart, chilled soups

One of my favorites. The sauce is very meaty.

[LMaxwell]

My favorite is the lamb shank. It matches up to any dish I've had in a specialty restaurant.

 

Runner up is duck; it can be greasy or dry, duck is tough to get just right, but I enjoy it.

 

From the classics I like the sliders. Boring choice, but gotta get those steak fries.

Savory Bites, onion tart, chilled soups

 

Sadly, the Vidalia Onion Tart is not on the new menus.

 

 

I like the dinner salads. It's a larger version of one of the salads topped with meat.
