EDVM96 Posted October 19, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Is the Cubana Sandwich (Ham, Turkey, Cheese, Pickles & spicy Cilantro Mayonnaise) from the International Cafe gone fleetwide? It wasn't available on the Sapphire in May. It is not available on the Caribbean at the moment. Some month ago I read in this forum that the Ruby also didn't have it this summer in Alaska. I last saw it on the Regal in November 2022. It would be a real shame if Princess permanently removed this nice sandwich from the International Cafe. 😭 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lx200gps Posted October 19, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 19, 2023 It was also gone off the Discovery a few weeks ago. I also noticed that the IC no longer offers any salads. I used to like the Waldorf. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Roast Beef Dijon and Brick Meat sandwiches are also gone. 4 minutes ago, Yehootu said: But you can get the Beetroot sandwich🙂 😲 🤮 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare flying boat Posted October 19, 2023 #9 Share Posted October 19, 2023 We were B2B on the Enchanted in January, first 10 days IC had the Cuban sandwich second 10 days it was gone. When we asked we were told it was no longer on the menu. I seemed to remember the salads disappeared around the same time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it looks like it's gone, too. Just simple Ham & Cheese or Salami & Cheese Sandwiches now. Very disappointing.

antsp Posted October 19, 2023 #16 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Chop, Chop, Chop, when will it end. The true colours of Princess will show when the Sun Princess starts sailing. My bet is some shows will have a cover charge 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheetosrevil Posted October 19, 2023 #18 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) A Cuban sandwich is delicious and comparing the original post to post 6 I would take the post 6 sandwich every day. They look like completely different sandwiches! IMO most of the IC offerings are lacking and I'm never tempted so I'm surprised by the number of people who love it. Yes, I've eaten a few things there, but they've just been meh. Edited October 19, 2023 by cheetosrevil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're absolutely right. 1st photo was on the Regal in November. Not enough melted cheese and mayo. Different ships, different variations of everything, even the standard items. But still better than a plain ham & cheese sandwich which you get now. Edited October 19, 2023 by EDVM96 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to know if the #6 picture is before all of the cutbacks in quality. I would never get the sandwich you posted--it almost looks like roast beef lunchmeat. I still love Princess, but so many of their decisions alienate loyal customers and I struggle to figure out how they're enticing new ones.

At IC you order a sandwich and they bake it in their oven. You won't get one from display, they come from the kitchen behind. And this is what came out. I was a little surprised as well. I had much much better Cubanas on Princess ships. Edited October 19, 2023 by EDVM96 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
