clivep Posted December 17, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) Having read the thread about the Breakaway a la carte introduction I checked MyNCL for my upcoming Epic cruise and found: Cagney's Steakhouse Details Steak is the standard at our American-style steakhouse. Pull up a seat and take your pick from premium cuts of Certified Angus Beef®. Your mouth will water, so sip your favorite cocktail in anticipation. And don’t forget to order our made-from-scratch jumbo crab cakes and a side of our famous truffle fries. The per person price is $29.95 for sailings before 3/6/16. After this date, items on the menu will be individually priced and the charges will be incurred on board. This applies to all the restaurants that are going a la carte: Le Bistro, La Cucina, etc. Edited December 17, 2015 by clivep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SquishTheWhale Posted December 17, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I'm really glad this isn't coming in on the 1st Jan as previously suggested- I'm on the 3rd Jan sailing of the Epic and was anticipating lots of confusion and problems as it would be the first Epic sailing with a la carte! Phew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tree.star Posted December 17, 2015 #8 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I checked Cagney's on the Pearl. It says: The per person price is $29.95 for sailings before 1/11/16. After this date, items on the menu will be individually priced and the charges will be incurred on board. Same for La Cucina and Le Bistro. Teppanyaki and Moderno are still listed with per person prices, are these ones not changing over to a la carte? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vampiress Posted December 17, 2015 #10 Share Posted December 17, 2015 well now i am in a pickle. bf's birthday is during the cruise, and the restaurants are marked as a la carte. we were planning on eating in the main dining room except on his birthday. i'm wondering how expensive the a la carte prices are and if it is better to get the package.

One way to decide is to check out the new menu, "decide" what you think you two most likely want to order and add it up for both of you including 18% gratuity. Then compare it to a package price and that will help decide what is the better value.

Rare KeithJenner Posted January 11, 2016 #13 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I've got the package can you tell me how that works in the a la carte restaurants? Thanks Experience from the Escape is that everything is included (including multiple appetisers and sides) except that you are limited to one entree.

Thanks for your help. I was a bit gutted as I only bought the package for La Bistro & Cagneys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincyJen Posted January 11, 2016 #15 Share Posted January 11, 2016 We don't have the UDP for our upcoming Epic cruise, but I'm thinking about buying a 3 or 4 meal Specialty Dining Package. Would those be treated the same way as an UDP for the nights we choose, even in a la carte restaurants? I don't know why this concept is so confusing to me. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KeithJenner Posted January 11, 2016 #16 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Yes, when actually being used in restaurants the SDP and UDP are treated exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
