Muumuu Posted August 1, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I am a salad addict. Love it. In MDR can you order a large salad like you would get at the buffet? All I would like are greens, tomatoes and cuke. Would order the grilled chicken to go with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted August 1, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Items are pre plated. There's a relatively basic salad and a grilled chicken entree on the everyday offerings. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ready 2 Go Posted August 1, 2016 #3 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Usually it's just a kale or Caesar salad offered in the MDR. I have seen wedge offered as well. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micahs Grandad Posted August 1, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I would ask headwaiter if you could get this each night. Nothing to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABQrobin Posted August 1, 2016 #5 Share Posted August 1, 2016 This is my biggest complaint about the MDR on all cruises.... no salad as a main course! The side salads as appetizers are okay, but not what I want. And the caesar salad is yuck, IMHO. I told my husband last cruise that I wanted to eat at the buffet one night just so I could do it but he wanted to eat in the MDR. I lost that battle but not next time! (At home, I make really great salads for dinner, especially in summer, at least 2 nights per week... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many choices to "build your own" creation Edited August 1, 2016 by First and Ten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(At home, I make really great salads for dinner, especially in summer, at least 2 nights per week... ) That sounds like the conversations my DW and I have. She would not mind eating in the buffet every night, mostly because she likes to make her own salad and see exactly what she puts into it. I like the MDR. We have generally compromised by eating at the buffet whichever "formal" night is not "lobster" night and maybe one other night on the cruise. I think on one of our cruises, I ate without her at the MDR one night while she went to the buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stargate fan Posted August 1, 2016 #8 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I am a salad addict. Love it.In MDR can you order a large salad like you would get at the buffet? All I would like are greens, tomatoes and cuke. Would order the grilled chicken to go with it. I do this myself on every cruise. There always seems to be a night or two that nothing on the menu "floats my boat." On those nights, I ask my server for two salads (I like all the veggies that come in it) and grilled salmon. This has never been an issue. The salmon comes on top of the giant salad. Order away. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hapytobehr Posted August 1, 2016 #9 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I have asked for a salad every night and I get one. However, I usually ask for lettuce and tomato with a certain dressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted August 1, 2016 #10 Share Posted August 1, 2016 In the main dining room for LUNCH there are almost always salads to be ordered as a main course. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(At home, I make really great salads for dinner, especially in summer, at least 2 nights per week... ) I've had many appetizers as my main course. If they're not big enough, order two or three. Can always mix and match. It's rare that a pre plated salad is exactly to our specifications. As for your MDR issue, could always eat apart then join up later ;) :D Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Edited August 1, 2016 by SadieN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
