Rare arxcards Posted August 9, 2022 #26 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Should be able to get as many starters as your heart desires. They just charge for extra mains. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that's what I think too. I'm surprised they structured the Bayou menu that way - essentially to "encourage" people to only have three courses. All the other speciality restaurant menus are a 4 or more course layout. Sabatinis works out at six courses - antipasto, appetiser, soup/salad, pasta, main and dessert. Thank goodness the servings are smaller now. I actually prefer to have several small courses when dining in certain types of restaurant. I like variety of tastes, not large platefuls of food. I love degustation menus and some Asian styles of dining like Japanese Kaiseki. Bayou does have more deluxe items on its menu than the old Sterling Steakhouses had. The lobster is exceptionally good, true Maine lobster apparently, and a decent size too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted August 10, 2022 #28 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I am not a huge fan of lobster as I find it is often bland without the garlic butter but do like lobster bisque. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted August 10, 2022 #29 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I am not sure I will get to the Bayou, as we normally go on a special occasion and our next couple of cruises do not coincide with a birthday or anniversary as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It comes with a little dish of melted butter, with lemon I think, to dip the lobster into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually we don't bother with the speciality restaurants on short cruises but do use them on longer cruises as a change from the MDR. However we wanted to try the ones on Coral as the Bayou was new to us and the menu had bern revamped at Sabatinis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fstrat Posted August 21, 2022 #33 Share Posted August 21, 2022 The one thing I miss on this menu is the gravy. Where is the Gravy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is easy. Just bring your next special occasion forward. We used to celebrate one daughter's half birthday on 29/6, because her birthday was on 29/12, when all Australian children are on school holidays.

Isn't being able to cruise again enough of an excuse to celebrate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikibird Posted November 1, 2022 #36 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Bumping this up. I was wondering if the menu is the same every night or do they change it. We have vouchers for a specialty restaurant so might try Bayou. Do they have key lime pie every night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tikibird Posted November 1, 2022 #39 Share Posted November 1, 2022 When do bookings open for specialty restaurants? I can't find any booking times available in the app. So I called Princess and the girl seems pretty clueless. MDR reservations are open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tikibird Posted November 2, 2022 #41 Share Posted November 2, 2022 I finally got it booked over the phone and it shows up in the app. But I still can't see speciality restaurant booking slots on any other day. I decided to do it the first day, looking forward to a nice filet mignon and my husband will probably go for lobster or prawns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booking times disappear from the app when that happens. You do need to tap on each time slot to check individually for each time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
