Cruisin4ABruisen Posted March 7, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 7, 2023 On our upcoming Apex TA, we've booked two nights at Eden. We wanted to make sure we got specific times and days, so we booked them directly (not part of a package). Are we able to do the tasting menu instead of the standard app/entree/dessert? We would prefer the variety of getting to try different things and hopefully smaller portions as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have the option of ordering the Tasting Menu and there will be a different price from the $60 per person charge for the regular menu experience. Food was excellent at Eden.

You can get wines with either package but the price of the tasting menu does not include wine pairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Stag Posted March 8, 2023 #5 Share Posted March 8, 2023 When we were on the Apex in November, Eden was no longer offering the tasting menu. Maybe it was just for that cruise or the policy had changed. We noted our disappointment on the survey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you did it was there a wine pairing offered? Do you remember how much it was?** **Yes I see below that it may no longer be available but I’d be curious to know.

The menu shows tasting menu on the right side. Way too much food for me. Love Eden’s food and being able to watch it be prepared. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lilycat2010 Posted March 9, 2023 #9 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Just off the Edge and the tasting menu was there. They are not smaller portions, we inquired. Not sure anyone could make it through! 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We purposely didn't book Eden on a future cruise because of our Apex experience (the app showed the tasting menu; they didn't offer it while on board). I guess we need to make a reservation for Eden for our upcoming sailing! Edited March 9, 2023 by Team Stag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Eden is like my parents they would make me stay at the table until I finished it all. And they would serve….. green beans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wineoclock Posted March 9, 2023 #12 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Loved the tasting menu on Apex in October. Struggled by the end though but pushed through 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie North Posted March 10, 2023 #14 Share Posted March 10, 2023 We enjoyed the Tasting Menu on Edge in January; was a fabulous way to try all the dishes offered. We asked our server to select for us and we each had a different dish. Portions were smaller than the usual selections, but were plentiful. We did not have a wine pairing, but asked our sommelier to suggest two bottles of wine to accompany the dishes; we were quite pleased with his recommendations. The price for the tasting menu was the same as the normal cover charge; we just paid extra for the two bottles of wine. I am sure you will enjoy your meal at Eden! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamboat43 Posted March 10, 2023 #15 Share Posted March 10, 2023 We were on Apex last month. The tasting menu was an additional $100 per person after paying the $60 per person cover charge. I think the wine pairing was included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing. we didn’t have to pay anything additional for the tasting menu in October. Having had it once I’m not sure I would pay the extra. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
