Welcome aboard my eating live thread for the Ruby Princess Alaska Cruise beginning May 14! I’ve been searching for dining menus this year and haven’t seen them so I thought I would share. I’ll report in on other things but plan on lots of relaxing! Here are the Day One Menus 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CynCyn Posted May 15 Author #2 Share Posted May 15 Update on dinner. It was great! Small portions but that is ok with me. garlic ‘prawns’ Pork Tenderloin Medallions Love Boat Dream- changed again! Chocolate Soufflé While there was a line for reservations I was seated within 5 minutes of my time of 7:40 PM. I finished in an hour and 5 minutes. Service on the Ruby has been fabulous. Miles ahead of my last experience on the Discovery. It’s crazy because we had delayed boarding for deep cleaning. You would think the crew oils be stressed but they aren’t showing it at all! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came off Ruby on May 7 and tested positive for Covid two days later. Mild flu like symptoms fortunately. Plenty of coughing around toward the end of the cruise. Please be careful.

MsSoCalCruiser Posted May 15 #12 Share Posted May 15 Thank you for sharing. I am looking forward to following along. If you have time, would you please post the vegan menu that is hopefully showing desserts. I love sweets and I am allergic to dairy so I am usually left out. Enjoy your cruise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CC Rider 69 Posted May 15 #15 Share Posted May 15 CynCyn, if you get a chance to do the Chef's Table, do it. We were on the Regal with your Executive Chef, Russel Clarke. His stories are hilarious and the food he and his kids (as he calls them) prepare is the best. Enjoy the cruise from a fellow Texan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare CynCyn Posted May 17 Author #22 Share Posted May 17 Juneau- Day 3 Menu No food pictures- I was too hungry and I didn’t eat dessert or see a menu. Nothing really appealed to me. I had the New York Strip and French Onion Soup. It was great! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CynCyn Posted May 17 Author #23 Share Posted May 17 Also- today they quit serving in the buffet and we are able to get our own coffee, water, juice, etc. In Skagway now. Trying to decide what to eat for lunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CynCyn Posted May 17 Author #24 Share Posted May 17 I ate lunch at Woadie’s. It is a seafood place with crab, oysters, and fish and chips. I had a Klondike Brewing Raspberry Ale called Yhe Devil’s Punchbowl. It was so good, so now I’m at Klondike Brewing having a flight! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
