Will be on the ship two week prior to that lunch, so will ask. I had the Chops embark lunch confirmed in my Cruise Planner as well on my cruise in October, however they moved us all to Giovanni's instead for free and we got our lunch in Chops on the day 5 sea day just like @rudeney. I was happy with the free lunch, I had been told all my life there was no such thing! lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be on the ship two week prior to that lunch, so will ask. I had the UDP and had the suite concierge book for me in advance. I just happened to stop into Giovanni's when I boarded to make sure everything was in order, and that's when I was told lunch was there for embarkation and had been swapped for Chops. Later that cruise at dinner in Chops, I asked our waiter why that happened and he told me about it being used for Windjammer overflow. That may have changed. I'll be interested to hear your experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HappyTexan44 Posted January 7, 2023 #78 Share Posted January 7, 2023 If I knew the Key includes both a Giovanni's embarkation lunch, and a Chops lunch later, I'd be more likely to get it. Seating in WJ embarkation lunch is such a frequent complaint, that using Chops as an overflow seating sounds like a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always on Oasis class when we leave early, not sure when we can board leaving at 8 pm Earliest check in usually starts around noon - boarding probably around the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a version of the Chops menu served in the MDR. The food is prepared by the MDR staff in the MDR kitchen, so it may not be quite up the same meal you'd get if you were to eat lunch in Chops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
