Charlie1422 Posted April 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 20, 2017 We will be traveling with our granddaughter who is a vegetarian. Do we need to contact Carnival or are there ample options available on the menu? Sent from my XT1650 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocolate melting cake Posted April 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted April 20, 2017 There are choices on the MDR menu each evening. The choices on the Lido deck are bountiful. No problems. Did you know that the word VEGETARIAN is derived from a Mohegan Native American word---its meaning is "He who does not hunt well". ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaMommy75 Posted April 20, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 20, 2017 We are a vegetarian family (kids are currently 13 & 11 years old) and have been on 10+ cruises in the past 7 years and have definitely had plenty of options. :) If you are on a ship with the 2.0 upgrades your granddaughter will likely love Guys Burgers and Blue Iguana (both on Lido deck by pool). The burger place you just ask for a veggie burger and they will make one on the inside grill for you and tell you to come back in 5-10 minutes. My kids got at least one veggie burger a day and usually visited Blue Iguana for a veggie burrito twice a day.:') In the MDR there is always at least one vegetarian option. My son almost always opts for pizza or plain pasta though. My daughter loves the Caesar salad in the MDR and will often ask for a larger size as her entree. She will love it!

cruisincat90 Posted April 20, 2017 #7 Share Posted April 20, 2017 The Indian vegetarian option in the MDR is great but be aware that at least on our cruise it was an option every night so maybe don't do what we did and rush to order it over a different dish the first dinner.

Is your daughter aware that the dressing on Caesar Salad is made with anchovie paste? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisincat90 Posted April 20, 2017 #10 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Is your daughter aware that the dressing on Caesar Salad is made with anchovie paste? On my cruise they had one with no fish, you just had to specify (my waiter offered it because he knew we are vegetarian). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coevan Posted April 21, 2017 #11 Share Posted April 21, 2017 so they changed the salad dressing to something other than Caesar, because it is not Caesar dressing without either anchovies or anchovy paste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estillcrew Posted April 21, 2017 #12 Share Posted April 21, 2017 We will be traveling with our granddaughter who is a vegetarian. Do we need to contact Carnival or are there ample options available on the menu? Sent from my XT1650 using Forums mobile app We have sailed on three cruises since my daughter became a vegetarian. There are plenty of options! There are soups and salads, pizzas, Italian, Mexican, vegetarian only dishes, etc. If she doesn't find a main course or appetizer that she likes, she could simply order several sides of vegetables to be delivered to the table. My daughter never had a problem. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nchikk Posted April 21, 2017 #13 Share Posted April 21, 2017 We learned that the Indian vegetarian is available every night, but the dishes change If she orders the Indian Vegetarian Dinner, keep in mind: It is very good and very authentic (most of the chefs are from India) Most people, not me as I'm Indian, find this quite a bit on the spicy side. As they have probably made a decent sized batch of the dishes, I don't know if they can tone it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they have probably made a decent sized batch of the dishes, I don't know if they can tone it down. That's why they serve the riata and rice. I always ask for a second helping of rice. On Some ships (Splendor and a few others) there is a Tandoor open at lunch. Some meat but mainly vegetarian.
