JessC510 Posted January 20 #1 Share Posted January 20 For a la carte priced specialty restaurants, is there a minimum amount that must be ordered? For example, could I go to Le Bistro and get just the escargot and a glass of wine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDawg79 Posted January 20 #2 Share Posted January 20 There are no minimums. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Anoynmous Phoenix Posted January 20 #3 Share Posted January 20 You pay for what you order if you don't have a package. No minimum BUT you may get a few polite but queer looks if you just order one item and a glass of wine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare graphicguy Posted January 20 #4 Share Posted January 20 (edited) No minimums. No weird looks. Order as little (or as much) as you’d like. You can get an app and leave. Won’t matter! Your perk and/or money. Your choice! Edited January 20 by graphicguy 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New to Norwegian… If we go to one of the restaurants and only do an app and wine, isn’t that wasting one of our specialty dinners or am I misunderstanding how this works?

You visited the restaurant ( as a perk), if all you want is escargot and wine ( which by the way is a perfect meal on its own), dosent matter. Maybe ask the waiter that instead of a multi course meal, you would prefer to have a few orders of escargot ( along with a couple glasses of wine). I LOVE the escargot in Le Bistro. Dipping the bread in the garlic oil sauce ....YUMMMMMMM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's free. If you only want an app(s), then it's a good deal. Order what you want. No one will be critical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good point. Next question: Which restaurant would have the very best chocolate desert?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare debenson0723 Posted January 20 #10 Share Posted January 20 If all you want is an app and wine (and dessert), then just pay a la carte. No need to use a coupon...save that for an evening when you want a complete meal. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's supposed to be a delicacy. I've tried them a few times. I just can't get over the texture. Can't force myself to like them...not in the least! LOL!

At the time you go to dinner, you tell the hostess how you would like to pay for whatever you order. You can use a Free at Sea credit, you can use a purchased meal credit, you can use a Latitudes voucher if you get one for being a top tier member, you can use a credit/voucher from elsewhere (like your TA or credit card), or you can just charge the meal to the room. If you are just ordering one app, you probably want to charge it to your room. You would never get a weird look for ordering an app and glass of wine. Long ago when it was an Ultimate dining package, we used to do a progressive dinner at different restaurants. Not any more, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear these are the same cakes, just in different form. Even if they're not, both are delightful! I do really enjoy the carrot cake in the Haven as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
