Loreni Posted December 6, 2021 #1 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I am trying to simulate some elements of a Princess MDR dining experience for someone who will certainly never cruise again. Her health did not outlast the delay caused by coronavirus. Specifically I’m trying to locate the metal bowls used for serving the ice cream in the MDR. If anyone has insight or can point me in the right direction I would be grateful. I think they are stainless steel. But maybe silver plate? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinFinsUp Posted December 6, 2021 #2 Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) Where are you located? Try "Amazon", local restaurant supply places, or call your local ice cream parlour and enquire if they have particular suppliers that are open to the public and not just wholesale. https://www.amazon.com/Stainless-Steel-Sherbert-Sorbet-Gelato/dp/B01M1BY9JO/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2VCFGG4WM3NA4&keywords=metal+ice+cream+bowls&qid=1638795871&sprefix=Metal+ice+cream%2Caps%2C172&sr=8-2 All the best.

If you're in a rush, go with them. Your local restaurant supply should at least have new ones and used ones as well at a much lower price. Just Google "used restaurant supply near me". I think that it's wonderful that you are recreating a moment for her! If I had the dish, I'd send it to you. Sadly, ice cream dishes aren't very popular when so many of us just grab a spoon, and eat it right out of the carton. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are the first person that I have heard of eating ice cream right out of the carton. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you buy the cheapest / worst ice-cream you can find... You have re-created the volcano. Motto: "It's not good, but there is a lot of it!"

Loreni Posted December 7, 2021 Author #7 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Thank you Cruisinfinsup, CineGraphic, and John! I found a number of options that are very close (inexpensive), probably good enough. They are called sherbet dishes or French coupes and they are stainless steel. I haven’t found the exact duplicate. They may be manufactured specifically for Princess. I’ll get the closest approximation for now and keep checking eBay for the unicorn. I don’t think the ones on Princess are silver plate because it would be difficult to maintain, but they do look a bit nicer than stainless steel. They look similar in reflectivity to the Princess butter dishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
