Favorite foods on a cruise

[robthens]

My DH loves escargot and calamari. I think they rank right up there with erasers and rubber bands.

 

 

We love all the fish dishes with salmon being our favorite.

 

 

For dessert, the Princess soufflés are our most memorable.

Crab is the best.;) john

Calamari is delicious!

 

 

I love all of the appetizer choices at dinner!

[love2vacation]

Anything chocolate!:D

I always look forward to the appetizers and soups. Carnival has two appetizers that I particularly like:

 

Cherrywood-Smoked Long Island Duckling

Alaskan Snow Crabmeat Cocktail

[Gabsabunch42]

My favorites at dinner were the flourless chocolate cake and the pumpkin soup yumm. I don't remember what it was called, but my favorite entree was a scallop dish that had a ring of mashed potatoes around it, and the scallops were in a sauce with pasta underneath. YUM!

The lobster tails and rack of lamb. Hubby loves all the Italian dishes and the lobster tails.

I loooove escargots in garlic butter which make DH turn green:p and he goes crazy over the crab legs and we both love the lobster For dessert the bread pudding w/vanilla hard sauce = heaven.

[teedee]

I love Baked Alaska and the only place I ever get to have it on a cruise. That's one of the highlights for me!

 

The chilled soups on Celebrity are also pretty darned good.

NCL's chocolate fondue, steamed chicken breast with king prawn mousse stuffing, cream of wild mushroom soup served inside a huge brown bread roll, chilled fruit soups and mignot steak :):):) scrumptiousness on a plate :)

[cruizinrican]

Everything!

 

Oh, do I have to be more specific?

 

Okay, creme brulee! Yum

 

Cruizinrican:p

[Peaches1117]

Escargot (up to 3 orders :) in place of soup and salad) and the creme brulee.

[cruizinrican]

Peaches, you have just taken the words right out of my mouth! Where would we be without?

 

Cruizinrican:D

[Peaches1117]

The waiter we had on the Century gave me extra escargots when they were on the menu. He told me his father always brought them home on his payday. The evening I ordered the pasta with escargot, he must have had the kitchen put TRIPLE the amount on my plate!

[cruizinrican]

Yummy!Cruizinrican:p

Love2Vacation,

I'm with you .........anything chocolate, yes give me chocolate. And Celebrity's menu is done by a french chef, so all those delacacies.....oh my....need I say more??? French pastries done in chocolate!!!!! Actually as long as I don't have to cook, I'm not that picky. (as long as I get chocolate for dessert.) However, hubby & I don't care for fish--that's just us.

[CINCY40]

Shrimp cocktail and the fabulous bread pudding on HAL.

[seabum]

HAL's Chocolate Tulip

Most lines - escargot - when its hot.

Carnival's Pizza Bar

Princess' soufles and chilled fruit soups.

 

Hmm - I'm getting hungry and only a few weeks left to try and fit back into my Tux - they always seem to shrink from that sea air I suppose.

[shuttle-c]

HAL has its signature "bread pudding". Can't get it anywhere like theirs.

[robebrady]

I would have to say that Carnival's Grand Marnier Soufle is the best and then the fruit soups are out of this world and the lamb chops are to dye for and and and and and I could go on and on but I will stop. :p

[MsBlue]

Carnival's Delice of the Sea, Chilean Sea Bass, Beef Wellington, Chateaubriand - all very hard to beat. Any of the puff pastry desserts are wonderful. Having complimentary cappuccino or double espresso after all meals in the dining room is a plus!

OMG! I sailed Carnival Glory and had that scallop dish with the potato ring too! It was SO good! I even took a pick of the plate when they served it to me. It still brings back memories of how good it was.

 

Every night I ordered 2 appitizers and skipped the salad (hey, I can eat salad any time back home), but not those wonderful apps. The pumpkin soup was GREAT as were all the other soups I had. I had cold strawberry soup one day--yum. I got brave and tried escargo, but was NOT impressed--like eating rubber. Can't wait to sail again, just for the food!

[patnjohn]

Yes, the souffles on Princesses are the best! Eggs Benedict on Celebrity in the diningroom & waffles at the buffet. Chateau Briand & goat cheese souffle at the Normandy on Summit. All the beef dishes on Celebrity were great too. I don't eat too much beef at home, but I really enjoyed it on my Celebrity cruises.

[AmandaNS]

Sailing with Celebrity last year, I tried... finally... ready for this???....

 

FROG LEGS!!

 

They don't quite taste like chicken. And I got a good laugh when they brought out the plate... and there were 3 legs!! I had this pic of a 3-legged frog, or one poor frog that's missing a leg. :D

 

My fave part of that dish was taking each leg, standing it up like it would be on a frog when it's crouching, doing a few "hops" around the plate, then taking a bite. Yup, I'm one of the more refined diners on board! :D:D:D

 

I tried escargot as well, didn't really like it, but had to try it just to say I did.
