Favorite Holland America desserts

[cruiseaholic78]

Any crisp/crumble in the MDR except banana. I always ask for vanilla sauce instead of ice cream.

The marshmallows put me off from ever ordering it.  I just tried it recently, sans  marshmallows, and it was pretty good. Whipped cream would be optimal. 

DH had it last week on NS - no marshmallow, yes stroop (wafer) enjoyed it.

We didn’t have stroop just a simple  cookie.  I do like this new emphasis on Dutch heritage food.

Whaaaat, they have stroopwafels?  Best eaten by placing them on top of your cup of coffee and letting them warm up.  Boy oh Boy, we can't wait....

Strawberry pavlova -- offered in PG only at lunch.

 

But I have a workaround for that.  At dinner in PG I will politely ask if they will fix one for me.  Frequently they will, so no problem there.  However, if the answer is no -- here's what I do:

 

My eyes fill with tears and I pout and whimper, "Well, they always do it for me on xxxxdam, xxxdam, and xxxdam (any ships other than the one I'm currently on)".  And the server soon returns with a fresh strawberry pavlova.  Works every time 😄.
