ducklite Posted October 17, 2005 #3 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I just spent a week on the Mariner, and there was not one food item that I would consider a "must have". A few things were better than others, but overall the food ranged from good (Portofino's and Chops) to lousy (Windjammer). Temper your expectations on the food or you will be highly disappointed.

gerif Posted October 17, 2005 #8 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Is the seafood fresh?? I'm going to guess not since it is brought on board at the beginning of the trip and would get pretty rank after the second day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chessie68 Posted October 17, 2005 #10 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Chocolate peanut butter pie served one day at lunch in the Windjammer was to die for and the key lime pie in the dining room was also the best I may have ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ericknow32 Posted October 17, 2005 #13 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Musts for me: White Chocolate Fondue That is great. Not really a fondue though. I eat around the berries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nerak Posted October 17, 2005 #15 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Any chilled soup...and agree with Ericknow32, the white chocolate ??? except WITH the berries. It's usually served the first night on the Serenade...at least our last 3 cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skiiergirl Posted October 17, 2005 #16 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Vidalia Onion Tart Escargot Key Lime Pie Chilled soups....especially the strawberry! Souffles If you do Portofinos....the Tiramisu is a definite must! (We like Chops "food" better but go to Portofinos instead for the Tiramisu!)

Garycruz Posted October 18, 2005 #17 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Vidalia Onion TartEscargot Key Lime Pie Chilled soups....especially the strawberry! Souffles If you do Portofinos....the Tiramisu is a definite must! (We like Chops "food" better but go to Portofinos instead for the Tiramisu!) I've read on these boards that if you like a specific food that is not provided in a particular restaurant that you can request it, and they will get it for you. For example, I've heard about people who have eaten in Chops but loved the Tiramisu from Portofinos. The waiters brought the Tiramisu from Portofinos to the diners in Chops. It sounds like the best of both worlds. I plan on putting this to the test on my upcoming cruise. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheezwhiz Posted October 18, 2005 #18 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Lunch in the Dining Room Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps were the best. Also for those on a diet or should not eat sugar. Sugar Free Key Lime Pie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyFamilyNJ Posted October 18, 2005 #20 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I'm laughing at all of the mentions of key lime pie; on my honeymoon cruise, 13 YEARS AGO, that was my favorite!!! I still have yet to have a better key lime pie. I guess RCCL was smart enough to keep the recipe. FYI if they have a great dessert at dinner one night, look for it at the afternoon buffet the next day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarps14 Posted October 18, 2005 #23 Share Posted October 18, 2005 One of my dad's favorite sayings is: "There are those who eat to live and others who live to eat." I, unfortunately, am of the latter. I definitely live to eat. This thread is making me realize this with a vengeance. :D Definitely, the Grand Marnier Souffle Flourless chocolate cake French onion soup at Portofinos and every thing else mentioned in the thread!!

Snoopywy Posted October 18, 2005 #24 Share Posted October 18, 2005 so worry about my weight after I eat all the food u suggest :eek: will go to mariner of the sea on 30-oct !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixiedoodle Posted October 18, 2005 #25 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I am soooo looking forward to the chilled strawberry soup and tasty spring rolls. My hub looooves their room service hamburgers (apparently they're made 'fresh'). And the room service fruit plate is always a good way to go for a light snack or late dessert. mmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
