Indeed, not even sure if I have had it..but if I did, had to be years ago. Always fun to try new things. 🥰 1 hour ago, RFerrington said: Yes, I’m pretty sure it’s on the 150 menu but I’ve never ordered it. It's a lamb Wellington in 150.....and it is delicious!

There have been some interesting ones so far. We'll see if there's a special item tonight when we head to the MDR in an hour or so. That makes a lot of sense for this type of cruise. Since they can't just resupply at the end of the cruise like normal, they've had to plan various resupply ports along the way in advance. If they see something fresh and good at one of the ports, buy it and turn it into a special meal for that evening. That would add some nice variation to the menu. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time she asks for dark meat in the MDR they give her Banquet dinner “dark” meat turkey roll. On Serenade at Thanksgiving, we went to the MDR, fiddled with what they served for a while and then went to the WJ for real turkey. I’ve always wondered why the WJ can bake a real turkey and even the Solarium Bistro on Oasis class has had an excellent turkey, although it was being carved at breakfast😳 but the MDR can’t seem to do it! I guess it could be blamed on serving a large number of people? Sherri🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always wait until we are seated in the MDR with menu in hand. Then we decide what our five courses will be for that evening. Not us, look at the app, if nothing is on there we care for we go to either Windjammer or one of the specialty restaurants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted December 24, 2023 Author #965 Share Posted December 24, 2023 The so called "British Finest" Beetle tribute had the most lackluster audience I have ever seen. Me for one. They tried...but IMHO...did not make the cut. Oh well. Some probably enjoyed it. One strange thing that happened...as we were walking down to our seats before the show...Etta May was talking to another couple. I quickly thanked her for the great show. She totally surprised me with telling me she thought she did a horrible job. And was quite upset at it, saying she hated the new program she brought out. OK...left her to her conversation with the couple. Spotted her later down front during the show on her own. Was able to make my way down to see her. Sat with her for a bit, put my arm around her and assured her that her show was fantastic, I loved it and thought she was a wonderful comic. She actually had tears in her eyes. Such a wonderful lady! Glad I had the chance to meet her in person. 🙂 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
