Rare PacnGoNow Posted February 27 #26 Share Posted February 27 3 hours ago, GeeGee0825 said: For those that booked the Caymus dinner, once on board, where did you go to book the dinner? The MDR? Also, was the Caymus dinner offered only once or multiple nights? We’re on the Sun Princess this summer and looking to book other specialty restaurants in advance (whenever reservations eventually open!). The uncertainty of which nights it will be offered makes planning a little more challenging! Call the dine line from your cabin to book. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do we book that? There was a table in front of Crooners with menus (and prices) for all the different meals. Then you call the dining line to get on the wait list. And they call you back on the in-room phone if you get selected, not a message via the app. (Was also on Sapphire.)

BabySarge Posted February 28 #29 Share Posted February 28 Whilst on the Enchanted we were approached during dinner one evening by one of the Dining Room Managers we knew from a previous cruise who inquired if we would be interested in attending. Told him yes, and he took care of the rest of it. An invitation was delivered to our cabin with the date, time, and location with a note to RSVP to the dine line. When we called the dine line they did inquire if anyone in our group/party had any food allergies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Flyer Posted February 28 #30 Share Posted February 28 22 hours ago, BabySarge said: Recently did the Caymus Winemakers Dinner (Enchanted Princess, November 2023). In our opinion and that of our travel companions, it was fun to do one time but not something we would repeat. We were neither impressed with the wine nor the food it was paired with and quite honestly felt that the food choices did not complement the selected wines at all and vice versa. It was, however, a fun, although a tad expensive, way to spend an evening but for us once was enough, at least with the Caymus wines. Thanks for sharing your opinions about the Caymus WMD…was it in one of the midship dining room’s Wine Cellars like the Silverado WMD on the Royal-class ships? I had no plans to go to the Caymus version at more than triple the cost of the Silverado version & your experience confirms my opinion about another expensive Princess experience.

No, at least when we did it on the Enchanted in November it was held in the Crown Grill which they closed for any other reservations that evening.

Silverado WMD was $40, but have not seen that one since March 2023 on the Enchanted. We’ve checked on every cruise. On 2/27/2024 at 8:40 AM, Rick&Jeannie said: No...there are actually 2 different Winemaker's Dinners. We have never done the $140 Caymus Winemakers Dinner...apparently Caymus is a much more expensive wine than what is served in the "other" (original) Dinner. We have done that $40 Dinner several times. We think it's a great value and look to see if it is available on every cruise we do. Are you guys sure that old dinner is still $40? Seems hard to believe with EVERY OTHER dining situation up in price. I recently saw a $45 price point posted, but even that seems like it should be $49/$50 based on other increases.

No, like I said, I have not seen the Silverado WMD offered $40, offered since March 2023. I always call and ask them once OB. They’ve only had Caymus WMD ar $140 plus 18%. I don’t know if it even exists anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the correction…with no recent reports of the Silverado version (shows $45 on the current dining options list) wonder what they’re using the Wine Cellar areas for in the 2 midship MDRs.

I read it that it was the whole restaurant for the old WMD. On Caymus, I guess I was thinking it was $149 like the other high-end experientials. I guess we should be quoting this as $165 now since old price included grats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
