RTShaker Posted September 14, 2023 #3 Share Posted September 14, 2023 You can have any side from any of the entree choices, either daily or classic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m8zenblue Posted September 14, 2023 #6 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Yes, you definitely can ! We travel with a party of 4 and we usually order a couple of sides and an entree along with our meal to share with the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micruiser2002 Posted September 14, 2023 #7 Share Posted September 14, 2023 The problem is with the new menu almost every entree has mashed potatoes as the side. There does not seem to be many options anymore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix_dream Posted September 14, 2023 #10 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Up until lately I would have said of course you could. We often ordered a baked potato. Will that still be allowed with all the recent changes? Would love to hear very current feedback. What worked even a month ago may not work anymore the way things are going. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Next cruise is October on the Eclipse. I'll be requesting a substitute or additional on that cruise like I have before. I don't like it I leave it. Our last cruise was March 2023 on the Apex and no issues. Edited September 14, 2023 by doghog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that could be different from ship to ship, server to server. Over the years (2001) of being a CC member I can't count how many times I've read what one persons experience was and another persons experience was different, no matter the subject. Even on the same ship/itinerary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saab4444 Posted September 15, 2023 #14 Share Posted September 15, 2023 So "modern luxury cruises" comes now with mashed potatoes like in a school canteen??? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen haywood Posted September 15, 2023 #15 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Not only does “Modern Luxury” give you mashed potatoes, but they are artistically served up in an ice cream scoop. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diesel1973 Posted September 15, 2023 #18 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Really don't mind if they serve the mashed potatoes with an ice cream scoop or a coal shovel as long as they taste good !!! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CruisinShips Posted September 15, 2023 #19 Share Posted September 15, 2023 We carry with us everywhere we go a small device that, with the tap of a few buttons, can provide us with access to more information than was ever imaginable in the lifetimes of prior generations. And we use it to discuss whether we can substitute mashed potatoes on an upcoming cruise. That being said, can anyone share any good cat videos? 😉😜 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awhfy Posted September 15, 2023 #20 Share Posted September 15, 2023 We always ask for a plate of green veggies for our table (& I have my entree without potato, easier as I have allergies, so my meals are normally made separately) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmm. You could be onto something. Coal-fired oven twice-baked mashed potatoes. This would likely require an upcharge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if someone experienced something on one sailing, then it IS "fact." The fact is that they experienced it. Perhaps you really meant "..reporting it as policy or fleetwide." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
