Juliayn Posted February 22, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Ok headed out in a few weeks and loving all the recent LIVE Reviews! Have my drinks all set thanks to those posts but thought I'd take a poll as to best desserts (and from what restaurant) to make sure I don't miss any of the 2nd most important aspect of the cruise. So far the peanut butter cup cheesecake from Savor is on the list. Any other favorites? TIA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDougOut Posted February 22, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I'll offer up some of my favorites, in no particular order...

TheDougOut Posted February 22, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 22, 2016 And a couple from lunch in Taste/Savor... Key Lime Parfait, Vanilla Ice Cream, Ginger Crisp Creme Caramel, Fresh Berries Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen haywood Posted February 22, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I don't have a picture, but the Chocolate Lava Cake with Stracciatella gelato is also available in the regular MDRs. Delicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDougOut Posted February 22, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I don't have a picture, but the Chocolate Lava Cake with Stracciatella gelato is also available in the regular MDRs. Delicious! My mistake - that's what I have pictured above, with a mislabeled origin of Cagney's. Cagney's was the Decadent Chocolate Fudge Brownie with macadamia nut ice cream & salted caramel sauce...

Rob0519 Posted February 22, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I can't remember the exact name, but there is an Orange Chocolate Mousse Parfait or something like that which is served in Taste and Savor. I had it maybe 3 times. There is a sorbet assortment at Bayamo that was really good and while technically not a dessert there is a coffee drink at LaCucina that was fantastic as well.

LrgPizza Posted February 22, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) There is an apple & pear crisp served in the MDR that is absolutely divine. I had the apple crisp in Cagney's thinking it would be better, and wasn't even close. I'm not much of a dessert eater, but I'll make a special stop in an MDR just for that crisp. EDITED to add: I don't like chocolate, and I was thrilled that there was always a variety of non-chocolate choices. I hate going to land restaurants when everything is chocolate.

dolita22 Posted February 22, 2016 #9 Share Posted February 22, 2016 My DH loves the chocolate raspberry truffle cake in the MDR! Can't remember which night it was served on, but he ordered two of them that night. It used to be an every-night offering, but no more, so he pigs out when he sees it available.

kayjaypea42 Posted February 22, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Is the Chocolate Lava Cake in Cagneys the same as the one in the MDR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLH Arizona Posted February 22, 2016 #11 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Is the Chocolate Lava Cake in Cagneys the same as the one in the MDR?Wasn't on the menu there when I was on the Dawn in December. But you can do, what two of us did at the Teppanyaki restaurant and ask for it. We joked about how we would love to have the chocolate lava cake and the server had someone go and get it for us.

TheDougOut Posted February 22, 2016 #12 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Is the Chocolate Lava Cake in Cagneys the same as the one in the MDR? I mislabeled that one... corrected in post #5. The lava cake photo is from MDR, and the photo of the chocolate fudge brownie is from Cagney's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbetten1 Posted February 23, 2016 #13 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I'm so excited to try all of these next month on our cruise! If they are as good as TheDougOut's pictures, I may have to join a gym after this cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProfDen Posted March 30, 2016 #14 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I love that you include Guinness as a great dessert. It makes a fantastic appetizer and entree, too. Guinness @ The Brew House Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pats4ever Posted March 30, 2016 #15 Share Posted March 30, 2016 My favorite was the dessert crepes at the buffet. You can choose the filling you want...my favorite was the nutella with bananas...yum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think this would be possible at any restaurant? I don't know if all restaurants use the same kitchen or not. I'd hate to make an employee walk super far to a different kitchen to fetch me something but if we're eating in a specialty restaurant and want an appetizer on the MDR menu, it'd be awesome if we could do that.

With my luck, I'd be the diner a few tables over wondering where in the heck my server disappeared to, as I'm trying to get my check. For that reason, I'd never dream of doing this. If you want an app from the MDR, go to the MDR and eat the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LrgPizza Posted March 30, 2016 #20 Share Posted March 30, 2016 The server doesn't go get it himself. I do know this. Okay, good. Maybe it's night quite as self-centered and lazy as it first appeared then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayleighbayleigh Posted March 30, 2016 #21 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Okay, good. Maybe it's night quite as self-centered and lazy as it first appeared then. I feel like it's better than taking up a table in the MDR just to eat one app and then leave. Now that would steal your server from ya!

travelinmoma Posted March 30, 2016 #22 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I would never ask someone to get a special dessert from another venue, but could I go to the other venue for dessert? For example, after Teppanyaki could we go to Savor or Taste for just dessert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Va. Plumber Posted March 30, 2016 #24 Share Posted March 30, 2016 We went to Savor one night just for late dessert. If you are paying a-la-carte, I don't think they would care if you just went for dessert. Can't imagine they would care even if you were on meal plan. In Le Bistro they went to get us pound cake for the chocolate fondue. The Tiramisu in La Cucine is pretty sporty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand and Seas Posted March 31, 2016 #25 Share Posted March 31, 2016 We have ate at Cagney's, skipped dessert, and went to the MDR for my favorite dessert.....Souffle! They had a Coconut Souffle with Mango sauce one night and another had an Apple with Cranberry sauce. We had the reservation at Cagneys before I knew what they were serving in the MDR. The waiter seemed fine with the dessert only dining:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
