canvasowl Posted June 12, 2017 Author #28 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Calamari was nice and tender Seafood udon had a strange tomato based broth, was expecting something more like miso Here is the shrimp and chicken noodle dish 50 Shades of Grey roll wasn't at all like the menu described Didn't like the Two Timing Tuna roll either, the spicy tuna part was just a whole chunk of tuna covered in tobacco sauce. Nothing like the usual spicy tuna you get in a restaurant which is like a chopped up tuna in a spicy mayo sauce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted June 12, 2017 #43 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Very nice & good job putting together various food item pictures from the Gem, looked familiar afterall - and, it should be noted most of them, if not all - especially items from O'Sheehan's and the MDR lunch dishes, are practically identical across the NCL fleet ... for food addicts looking to see. That (chicken) Pho soup served in the MDR must be popular - except that in DW's receipt, carrots are never used ... but I guess they need to substitute for what's not readily available. It could be served as an entree in a big bowl at Orchid Garden ... the soup broth was definitely better than the spicy soup based for the seafood udon ... OK, that's the food "critic" part of me in commenting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lisabdh1 Posted June 12, 2017 #45 Share Posted June 12, 2017 GREAT pictures, thank you so much for sharing. Question, so the taco stand on GSC is no additional charge right? And the Orchid Garden is an a la carte restaurant? Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vent1020 Posted June 12, 2017 #47 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Thanks for the awesome pictures. Nice and clear. I never remember to take a picture until I've already taken a bite or two out of the dish. Makes me look even more forward to our upcoming cruise.

LeesaB Posted June 12, 2017 #48 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Oh my gosh, I think I gained 15 pounds just looking at the food and menus. Thanks for posting! Curious - do they put notice of the special buffets (seafood, Italian, deck bbq) in the dailies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dina7 Posted June 12, 2017 #49 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Thanks so much for posting all of these great photos plus the menus! Is the Grouper Sandwich from Day 1 Lunch spicy or is it just the mayo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canvasowl Posted June 12, 2017 Author #50 Share Posted June 12, 2017 GREAT pictures, thank you so much for sharing. Question, so the taco stand on GSC is no additional charge right? And the Orchid Garden is an a la carte restaurant? Thanks so much! The taco stand was free! It was on the right side of the beach, while the buffet was to the left. Besides the 3 tacos shown they had about 6 or 10 different toppings like sour cream, guac, onions, lettuce. Didn't notice if they had drinks there, but the patron bar right next door had pitchers of water. And most of orchid garden is free, like the dumplings and noodles. No entry fee or anything. Only thing they charge for was sushi (not worth it) and two main dishes which had fancy steak or shrimp in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
