I see this as a option on my cruise planner for $19.00 but I don't want to book it until I see the menu. Does anyone know where I can find this?

I posted a copy of the Chops Grille lunch menu on my blog. This is from the Liberty June 25-July 2 of this year. There is a part of me who still doesn't like paying extra for meals on board, but this was an excellent lunch.

We booked for embarkation lunch, seems like a great alternative to chaos of buffet.

What ship are you on? We were on the Jewel a few weeks ago and had booked online for embarkation day too. When we got there for our reservation, they said they did not offer it for embarkation day and it was only on sea days. He was quite surprised that the website was offering it! Hopefully, it is available on your sailing / ship!

One entree and as many sides as you want and includes desert. The steak is a large cut and you wont leave hungry. At 19 dollars it a great deal. Got off indy last week and the above menu is spot on. Had a window table and the place was almost empty at 1:30. The 19 dollars also includes the tip..

 

Was on the Grandeur two weeks ago and now they add an additional 18% gratuity to the price.

So, did you not get it then? Did they just give you your money back? Was thinking about booking this too. Maybe I will think twice... :confused:

Well it was a bit odd! He said we could switch the embarkation day lunch to the second day as they would have it on both sea days. We switched, but others in our party were not really interested in doing it the next day (and we ended up going to suite event in Giovanni’s the second sea day for brunch). So, I stopped by the next morning to just cancel that lunch (keeping the 2nd sea day lunch). Well, after I explained to the woman who was there (again told oh we don’t offer it on embarkation day!), she informed me that Chops was not doing the other sea day lunch, but it would be held at Giovanni’s. I was sad because I was very interested in this Chops lunch, but also glad because I love Giovanni’s too. I said okay, no problem! I was curious how they would handle cost because Chops lunch was $19 pp and prebooked Giovanni’s dinner was $20 pp. I never found out because when I later looked at my folio on the tv, I saw she had cancelled and refunded both lunch days to my account. [emoji4][emoji4] Bottom line, we never made it to a specialty lunch. We did have dinner in both venues and both were excellent! Enjoy your cruise!

Hmmmm... I also booked the Chops lunch special on the Navigator of the Seas for my embarkation day (in January). I did think it was a great alternative to a probably-crowded Windjammer Café. Maybe I should follow up with my TA?

My thoughts exactly. We have never done any specialty dining and thought this might be a good way to try it out.

 

It is definitely showing available for embarkation day on my cruise planner for Serenade. I expect if it is really an option there will be staff milling around trying to sell it on the day.

 

By the way, what on earth are "tater tots"? :confused:

Tater tots are a more compact version of a hashbrown or French fry. They are potato, in small pieces, formed into one of these:

We attended Chops Lunch on embarkation day on February and March sailings aboard Grandeur. Try to avoid Windjammer due to very large crowds on first day. The menu was exactly stated here; all items were available.

I'm wondering if that's a sample menu and all choices may not be available.

 

Not a sample menu on Grandeur in February, March, and April sailings. Ate there on embarkation day in February and March. Delicious! All selections offered.
