tedbearz Posted April 3, 2022 #1 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Is Indian food available in the MDR or Haven? On RCL believe there are Indian dishes available upon request in the MDR. Is something similar on NCL ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexydva74 Posted April 3, 2022 #2 Share Posted April 3, 2022 It’s available in the buffet and it’s really good. I didn’t see it in the MDR at all 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JGmf Posted April 3, 2022 #3 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Over the many years and many ships, don't ever recall seeing Indian food on any Haven menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KeithJenner Posted April 3, 2022 #4 Share Posted April 3, 2022 This may not help much, but the Prima will have a place called Tamara in Indulge Food Hall, which is described as Indian, so in the future we may see more Indian options on NCL ships.

Two Wheels Only Posted April 3, 2022 #5 Share Posted April 3, 2022 I have seen in the buffet and have also seen the Haven staff willing to accommodate a special request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare YVRteacher Posted April 3, 2022 #6 Share Posted April 3, 2022 You can meet with the Food and Beverage manager or the maître d and arrange to have Indian food in the MDR. I have also arranged to have Indian food in Le Bistro. (I’m a vegetarian and don’t like the one vegetarian entree served in Le Bistro.) The Indian food on NCL is wonderful!!!

missyhr3x Posted April 10, 2022 #7 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Just off Joy (March 26-April 2). The Indian food is wonderful on NCL. The only place I saw or had it was at the Taste of India station at the buffet. Was not in the Haven, but have not seen it on that menu when we have been. It was available every day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In August 2019 on the Breakaway there was a family in the haven that was getting Indian food for their means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raleigh Traveler Posted April 10, 2022 #9 Share Posted April 10, 2022 We have noticed that that many of the chefs and dining room staff are from South Asia, especially India. On one cruise we experienced a Taste of India event. On our next cruise, we asked about it and was told it was not on the schedule but they could arrange one. They advertised it for one evening and about 15-20 people attended an amazing meal. They brought out dish after dish after dish. They are proud of their cuisine and enjoy sharing it. Point is, as we treat staff with respect, show interest in them and their heritage, they often go out of their way to accommodate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sailing12Away Posted April 10, 2022 #10 Share Posted April 10, 2022 The indian food in the buffet is great. With enough notice, the Haven staff can do wonders - but just ask and give them time to make it happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunBikeCruiseDC Posted April 10, 2022 #12 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Indian food on the buffet for certain. I believe they have had Indian flavors at Ocean Blue in the past? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gknep Posted April 10, 2022 #13 Share Posted April 10, 2022 We were on the Encore last September and there was an Indian station at the buffet. It was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgdesign Posted April 10, 2022 #14 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Is it only in the buffet at dinnertime or also at lunch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epixx Posted April 11, 2022 #15 Share Posted April 11, 2022 On the Gem in December, the buffet offered Indian food for lunch and dinner. As vegetarians, we ate it every night in the Main dining room (by request). The quality was uneven, at least for our tastes. Some of the dishes were outstanding, and one night the meal was inedible.

The concierge. If it's something you want more than once, you can email them ahead of your trip. If it's just going to be one or two times, better to wait until you're on board and speak to them in person. In general, things outside of your room = concierge For requests related to things inside of your room = butler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlgb Posted April 12, 2022 #18 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Not just lunch and dinner but Bliss also has Indian breakfast at the buffet station. I believe this is something you can ask for in advance in the MDR. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we were in the Haven in February, we spoke to the Haven Restaurant Manager and she had an Indian meal prepared for me in the MDR (she was very specific about us having to go to the MDR for it, not the Haven Restaurant). I told what night I wanted it and she made the arrangements, including a reservation (not that we needed one). We gave her a day of notice (spoke to her at dinner on Monday about dinner on Tuesday). I'm sure the concierge could also help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarimaJ Posted April 13, 2022 #20 Share Posted April 13, 2022 The Indian food on the buffet is great, you can request in advance for the MDR. One cruise I went on had a large Indian group on board, we had lots of yummy Indian food. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
