New American Table rollout- what will you miss about the old menus?

[NOLAbebe]

I am just curious if anyone's old faves were left off!

[alliecat1970]

Panko fried shrimp

I did not see Bitter & Blanc on our Liberty cruise last fall.

[bury me at sea]

The cold bisque soups. I want one every night. I have found only two listed on the menues I have seen, cherry and mango.

The new menu I just saw offers it once on a 7 day cruise. I think they have been tweaking the original American Table/American Feast menu a bit. When it first came out there was only one desert offered on Cruise Elegant night. now there are several.

Cream of broccoli soup and chateaubriand.

[SMSACE6]

I cant think of anything offhand. Chateaubriand maybe...but for me, I think there is more than enough new offerings to offset anything that I might miss.

Agree. The new menu has more that appeals to me as well.

[kjunea]

Since they have added Bitter and Blanc back, I'm looking forward to the new menu. I will miss chateaubriand, but there are lots of new things that interest me too!

[happy cruzin]

I've only seen the elegant night menu. Are the rest posted someplace I could see them??

[islandatsea]

The new menu has enough items for me to gain a few more pounds, LOL ! So yes...we are not missing anything on it.

[ccruisequeen]

Wondering when they will adapt the west coast menus.? I would like to see what they are adding to our menus, like the cherry Bing soup and bitter and blanc dessert.

I will miss:

 

The pumpkin pie and the pecan pie (already rare anyway)

 

The apple nuts phyllo thing

 

Pot stickers/dumplings starter

 

Southern Fried chicken on the everyday

 

Beef Brisket and gravy (always reminds me of my first ever MDR meal and tasty too)

 

Spanakopita main course

 

Pasta options each night (I do like the Italian way of starting a table meal with a small amount of pasta)

 

The general absence of seafood mains and larger variety of desserts.

 

 

 

I am hopeful I will find some other favourites...looking forward to the popcorn parfait, flatbreads, Kalamari etc. However I am a bit bummed Carnival has gone more 'American/Caribbean' with its menu as other family lines seem to have more worldly offerings...ah well.

The new menu seems to be very 'Midwestern' like the old meat-and-three. I do wonder where all the pasta went and many of the old favorites. I am not interested in eating steaks, ribs, and pork chops with potatoes and green beans every night.

The chicken tenders with honey mustard as an appetizer. Loved them!

Totally agree.

[cmptrwiz]

Chateaubriand and BBQ ribs

[Topo Gigio]

Is it me or does the menu looks better than before?

[LCTXcruiser]

I think so. I really enjoyed the other menu but it seems like the quality is a little higher on the new.

 

We'll find out in about 5 days :)

As long as I can get the diet orange cake I am all goood!! Haha.;)

We've had the 2, 3 & 4 day menus on the Imagination and Inspiration.

Like the Tuna appetizer almost as much as the duck.

 

I will miss:

Pot stickers/dumplings starter

The general absence of seafood mains and larger variety of desserts.

 

 

.......................ah well.

 

We have had Duck potstickers on every cruise with the American Table. We've done the short cruises.

 

Each meal we've had a fish option, not necessarily seafood.

I'll miss the Yam, Cheddar pot pie.

[Ocean Spirit]

Just got off of the Freedom and we were very pleased with the new American Table menu.

Most of my favorites were still available....

 

I loved the new pork ribs and there is new dessert that sounds strange but was wonderful.... something with Pop corn! It's a smooth flan like with a syrup on top and 2 pieces of pop corn on it.
