What did they do to earn that honor?

Trying to set a record for the world's largest pizza party.  Going to be held on every Princess ship in honor of a gentleman who is finally getting his pizza restaurant open on the Sun Princess.  Supposed to be a famous pizza maker.

A very long time ago, Princess would auction off the chart used for your cruise.  There would be one and only one original.  It was quite the prize.  I never participated.

I liked the cruise logs too. I saw an ad somewhere online yesterday for framed maps of your cruise. The maps show exactly where you cruised. I wish I could remember the website.

How long will he last?

I meant the parents. Lol.

The agnolotti is not gone.  It's still on the menu on every ship with a freestanding Alfredo's or Gigi's except for the Sun.  Sadly I do think the omission on the Sun menu and the recent pizza change announcement will eventually sound the death knell for it on all of the ships.  It's a shame because it's pretty much the best thing I eat on Princess ships, one of those things that I crave.

I believe the mini freestanding Alfredo’s on the Grand and Sapphire only have Pizza, no Agnolotti. Before casual dining it was an Appetizer, now it is listed as an Entree item.

They look great for people who like raisins. I am neither a people person nor a raisin person. So far I have tried the peanut butter and the chocolate chip. Both are excellent. 

If you happen to talk to the chef, if you feel like asking, please ask what ingredients are in the peanut butter cookies. I am hoping they are dairy free. I love cookies.

Good to see Love by Britto managed to open on Sun Princess before disappearing.

Don’t forget Tyra Banks SMiZE Ice Cream.

 

 

Thanks.  How could I have forgotten.  But isn't the Sundae's part of her legacy?

 

I am sure the Peanut Butter cookies have butter.  I wouldn't taste as good if it had lard.

 

I know nothing about Britto.  Is it gone?  If that is the case, the Sun has more things missing than it has operational.

All depends how long the pairing is for. 

 

Pretty certain it's not indefinite.

Yes, you are right. I haven’t been on either ship for a long time so I don’t think about them but from recollection they never had pasta. I remember walking over to the IC to get a salad and brought it to Alfredo’s on both the Sapphire and Grand to enjoy with my pizza.

What a creative, innovative production with spectacular costumes. 
 

Like the other night, this seemed like a shortened version: it was only 34 minutes.

 

 

There's usually room for the CD to chat with the audience afterwards.

It just opened on the Sun a couple weeks ago after not being ready when Sun began cruising. Considering the life span of these Specialty Chef inspired restaurants if it didn't get going soon the partnership may expired before it became operational.

Sadly, salads are no longer available at the IC. 

 

It's cheap sandwich carb city. We usually get 2 or 3 sandwiches and just eat whatever's inside and leave the bread.

Wait....what??? For real? I swear I have read so many posts on here saying that they had removed it from the menu! That would make me very happy if it's still available!

On some ships they have changed the agnolotti.  I had it on the Enchanted in January & it was small pasta with very little filling (not good at all).  They said the head chef had changed how it was made.  The previous times on other ships I loved it.  I hope they bring back the original!

Oh well. I was hoping they were one of those three ingredient cookies that I’ve seen floating around on social media. One could only hope.

 

You’ll just have to take a bite of everything and tell me how bad it is and that I’m not missing out. I always tell my friends to order things and to tell me if I would like it or not. They always try the things that I request, and then they say “Oh, you wouldn’t want that. It’s not very good”. 😂😂😂

Smize ice cream was available when we were onboard last month, is it gone now?

I’ve never seen it so I thought it disappeared. I will have to look on my next cruise. Did you notice if there was any made with almond milk or coconut milk?

I only noticed it was available for purchase at the Gelateria in small cartons and I did see a passenger purchase, but I did not see a listing of all of the varieties of SMiZE offered.

My mom and dad are in the 1986 Guinness Book of World Records and now I have the opportunity to be part of a world record too!

Woo hoo!

That’s cool.  What is their Claim to Fame?

 

The Ice Pilot enrichment was well-timed considering your cancelled ports.  It definitely made it more relevant.  I would have enjoyed listening, as well.  On one of our AK cruises we were unable to get up to Endicott Arm due to an ice field.  Prior to your posts I believed it was due to cold weather and little melting, when in fact, it could have been the exact opposite.  You are a teacher at heart😊.
